Spice Diana’s Tribute to Hon. Ssegirinya at Her 10-Year Concert was a Mark of Humanity and Grace

In a powerful moment at her 10-year anniversary concert, Spice Diana paused her performance to pay tribute to the late Kawempe North legislator Hon. Muhammad Ssegirinya a fallen politician known for his dedication to serving the common Ugandan.

The concert, held on Friday at Serena Hotel in Kampala a day after the death of Ssegirinya commonly known as Mr Update was a celebration of the artist’s decade-long journey in the music industry, but it also turned out to be a moment to honour a man who has left a significant mark on the country’s political landscape despite being in morning years.

As the crowd roared in excitement, Spice Diana’s decision to stop singing and take a moment of silence was met with overwhelming emotion from the audience. A clarion call illustrating that remorse is far more than making money “Tonight, we are here to celebrate life, but also to mourn the loss of a great man who gave everything for the betterment of his community,” she told the crowd.

Hon. Ssegirinya, a member of the Ugandan Parliament representing Kawempe North was known for his strong commitment to the people, especially in his capacity as a vocal advocate for the rights of the underprivileged. His passing left a void in the political sphere especially in his constituency where he had demonstrated that everything is possible. Spice Diana’s tribute also served as a powerful reminder of the unity within the Ugandan people, transcending political affiliations and differences.

The tribute not only honoured Mr Updates’ legacy but also reflected Spice Diana’s connection to the people she serves through her music. Her gesture emphasized that despite the challenges Uganda faces, the music community, like the political sphere, is a testament to the strength and resilience of its people.

As the tribute came to an end, the artmosphere was heavy with emotion. The crowd rose in reverence, honoring and shouting ‘Fight Hard Mr Update’ paying homage to humble boy from Masaka who once traveled on a matooke lorry, only to rise as a political figure in a faraway land. His legacy, a beacon of hope, will continue to inspire many for years to come.

Spice Diana, visibly moved, continued her performance, but the energy in the room had shifted this was no longer just a celebration of her music; it had become a moment of collective remembrance and solidarity.

Spice Diana’s tribute to Hon. Ssegirinya was more than just a personal moment of grief; it was a call for unity, reminding everyone present that, as one nation, we rise and fall together.

The gesture resonated deeply with the fans, many of whom had been touched by the politician’s work. Spice Diana’s emotional tribute was a fitting highlight of an unforgettable night that celebrated both music and the enduring spirit of Uganda.

This heartfelt moment showcased the power of music as not just entertainment, but as a platform for solidarity and healing demonstrating that, at its core, we are indeed one people.
