Omah Lay Speaks On Prison Experience

Popular singer, Omah Lay has revealed his experience in Uganda prison.

He said: “My ordeal in Ugandan prison was an amazing time for me. Although it was rough at the moment now looking back at the whole thing, it had to happen.”

“It gave me the relationship I have with Tems and her manager, Muyiwa Awoniyi today. Muyiwa was in the same cell with me.”

“We were in Uganda for a show during the pandemic. We had paperwork to perform but for some reason, we got arrested after performing. And we are sent to jail. We were in jail for two days.”

“It was just a very horrible experience. I wouldn’t want anybody to go through that. They were going to cut my hair, I wore a prison uniform.”

“They were so close to cutting my hair but the person who was in charge of the prison was a fan of my music. He got us a nice spot in jail and took care of us.”

For those who don’t know, Omah Lay and Tems were thrown into prison in Ugadan after they were arrested and charged to court in Uganda for making an appearance at a concert held in the country at Speke Resort, Kampala, despite COVID-19 social distancing regulations.
