I use Museveni's tactics in music - Bebe Cool

Renowned Ugandan musician Bebe Cool has praised NRM Presidential candidate Yoweri Museveni for his performance during the second presidential debate on Saturday.

The Gagamel boss also revealed that the tactics that the President was using saw him emerge the 'winner of the debate' are similar to the ones he employs in the music industry to outcompete his rivals.

Bebe Cool's wrote:

"I think my fellow Ugandans can now agree with me and join me to finally fully support M7 in this coming election. The opposition now claims the topic of the debate was in Museveni's favour, for sure I know as a citizen of Uganda that our president is a brilliant man with a vision.

One main reason why Museveni had to beat all is they all forgot to utilize their time to their advantage. Instead they all wanted to shoot at him hence giving him more time to elaborate, convince and win the nation.

I use that game in music most of the time where most people spend a lot of their time talking negative about me. I don't talk back about them, but I also talk more positive about myself so that means I am always the topic which always gives me an advantage.

Anyway I wish u all a peaceful election period, don't be intimidated by anyone, exercise your right and go vote for the best candidate YOWERI KAGUTA MUSEVENI come the 18th of February [Thursday]. Happy Valentine's Day to u all. I am off to Arua, Gulu, Lira today."
