Mikie Wine, brother to renowned political figure Bobi Wine, shared that he has encountered challenges in organizing his upcoming concert with sponsors pulling out.
According to Mikie, many sponsors have pulled out of supporting his event due to political reasons, citing his association with his brother as a major deterrent.
Mikie initially planned to host the concert at the iconic Cricket Oval, a venue known for its large capacity and vibrant atmosphere.
However, his request was denied by the venue owners, who claimed that the site was undergoing renovations. Mikie disputes this reason, suggesting that the real motive behind the refusal is politically motivated, given his close ties to Bobi Wine.
The musician further elaborated that he had engaged with several companies to sponsor the event. While these companies initially showed interest and welcomed his proposals, things took a turn two days ago.
Mikie revealed that these potential sponsors suddenly stopped picking up his calls. Some even questioned whether the concert would involve any political undertones, raising concerns about the potential backlash.
Despite these setbacks, Mikie Wine remains determined to move forward with his concert, although the political landscape continues to present challenges.
