“I had a show. I was performing for one of those people you respect and call real role models that pretend on TV to be good……This old pervert was trying to be funny with me in  my car. He and his security just came and opened my car door as I was sleeping waiting to be called on stage by my manager. He was trying to be inappropriate in front of my team members; no shame, no remorse…I so angry that I almost didn’t perform but I respect my job” narrated the Nkwata Bulungi singer known for her skimpy, steamy dress code and erotic dance moves.

“Why do you look at women as objects? Don’t you have daughters? If you want to sleep with a woman please ask nicely,” the former Obsession dance group member wondered
