Musician Benie Gunter is still stuck in Dubai and will remain there until his case is heard and resolved.
The singer, who was arrested last month at the airport after making a late appearance at the show, causing partygoers to damage and destroy property worth millions, has been released from prison. However, he is not allowed to leave the United Arab Emirates until his case is heard.
It is reported that the case may go on for almost two years, and during that period, he will not be able to return to Uganda.
Media personality and fellow rapper Ninja C has revealed that Benie Gunter is in urgent need of support and appealed to Ugandans to contribute anything they can for him.
“Just to make everyone aware, but maybe not updated. The Hommie @beenieguntalk is still in UAE, guys. He is going to be there until his case is heard. The cost of living, however, is ridiculous. So, this is a call to all musicians, fans, friends, and well-wishers, and most importantly Ugandans. Whatever amount you can spare, with his permission, he has allowed me to share his bank account details below. Let’s help him out. Kindly 🙏🏾 #FreeBeenieGunter
