Eddy Kenzo, the award-winning singer and songwriter, has been linked to Phiona Nyamutooro, a female youth member of parliament. The rumor mill has been buzzing with speculation that the two are in a romantic relationship.
However, Nyamutooro has come out to clear the air and deny the allegations. She said that she and Eddy Kenzo are just friends and have known each other for a long time.
“I can’t confirm that Eddy Kenzo is my boyfriend, but I know him,” she said in an interview. “I’ve known him for a very long time, even before I became a member of parliament.”
Nyamutooro also revealed that she was invited by the Speaker of Parliament to handle a petition from the Uganda National Musicians Federation.
She said that she supports the musicians’ cause and hopes to work with them to improve their welfare.
She urged the public to stop spreading false rumors about her and Eddy Kenzo, and to respect their privacy. She said that she is focused on serving her constituents and fulfilling her duties as a legislator.
