Dear whoever is in charge..We would have prefered Jayz and Beyonce or Will Smith and Jada to visit the pearl of Africa..Matter of fact,We are still very concerned with whoever came up with the idea of Kanye West visiting Uganda..Even Cardi B would be a much better choice.?— Lucky Mbabazi (@LuckyMbabazi) October 12, 2018
