King Saha fans fill Freedom City Mall

Singer Mansur Ssemanda alias King Saha proved to the music industry that his fans are different from Chameleone’s fans. This was evidenced by the turn up at Freedom City during his Gundeze Diamond concert on Friday. On the same day, Dr Jose Chameleone had also organised a concert dubbed Wale Wale Double Trouble at Kyadondo Rugby Grounds in Lugogo.

Gundeze was the second concert the singer has organised in his music career, the first being the Mulirwana concert that was held last year at Theatre La Bonita.

Unlike outdoor concerts that end at midnight because of the Kampala City Council Authority regulations, King Saha took to the stage at exactly midnight, dressed in all black. He opened his performance with Remember Me by the late Lucky Dube, a South African singer, as a way of paying tribute to the fallen singer Ak47 who passed last March.

King Saha also performed the late singer’s Tukikolemu song. He performed all his songs like Winner, Signal, Tereza, Bantu Baffe, Suzanna, and Vimba among others.

After 30 minutes of King Saha’s performance, Sylvia Namutebi aka Mama Fiina, the leader of the traditional healers in Uganda, joined him on stage and appreciated his talent. “I didn’t attend Chameleone’s concert at Kyaddondo Rugby Grounds, not because I don’t like him, it is because he is established and I want to give my support to young talent. That was the reason came to Freedom City,” she said. Namutebi bought Saha’s music CD at Shs3m.

King Saha then came back on stage and performed Mulirwana and then closed the show with the title track Gundeze. The event ended at a few minutes past 1am.

Other artistes who performed at the concert included Sheebah, Geofrey Lutaaya, Gravity Omutujju, Bobi Wine and Big Eye among others.
