Ugandan President’s Son, Muhoozi Kainerugaba, Expresses Interest in Nigerian Singer Ayra Starr

Muhoozi Kainerugaba, son of Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni, has publicly expressed his admiration for Nigerian Afrobeats singer Ayra Starr. In a recent tweet, Kainerugaba stated that his late grandfather permitted him to pursue any woman he desires, declaring, “I will capture that girl… Ayra Starr.”

This declaration has sparked significant reactions online, with many netizens critiquing his choice of words and approach. Some users found the term “capture” inappropriate, suggesting it objectifies the artist. Comments ranged from concerns over his language to humorous takes on the situation.

Ayra Starr, known for hits like “Rush” and “Bloody Samaritan,” has not publicly responded to Kainerugaba’s statement. The 22-year-old singer has been gaining international attention, recently performing at the 27th edition of Blankets and Wine alongside South African duo Blaq Diamond.

Kainerugaba, a high-ranking military official in Uganda, is known for his active presence on social media, where his statements often generate public discourse. His recent comments about Ayra Starr have added to the ongoing conversations about the interactions between public figures and celebrities.

As of now, there has been no official response from Ayra Starr or her management regarding Kainerugaba’s remarks.
