Singer Beenie Gunter is currently facing legal issues in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), with the looming possibility of imprisonment. The trouble ensued following an alleged altercation with event promoters who had booked him for a performance in the region last week. Rumors circulate that authorities at DXB airport in Dubai arrested him as he was returning to Uganda after the event.

Once managed by Talent Africa, Beenie Gunter now oversees his business independently. Accompanied by his girlfriend, he participated in the mentioned performance. His team is actively working to secure his release from detention and has reached out to fellow musicians for support on social media, urging them to post about the situation to garner attention and aid in his freedom.

Regrettably, there has been a lack of solidarity from fellow artists, with only a few attempting to bring attention to Beenie Gunter’s predicament. According to Dubai-based blogger Vibes Ug, there is a real risk that if Ugandans do not rally for Beenie Gunter’s freedom, he may face imprisonment for an extended period, possibly up to two years. Vibes Ug implores Ugandans to amplify their voices on social media, emphasizing the urgency of the situation to ensure authorities understand the need to release Beenie Gunter promptly.

The call to action is clear: immediate social media support is crucial to prevent Beenie Gunter from facing an extended period of potential incarceration.
