This incident took place during Ssalongo Siraje's Nalu concert at the Lugogo Cricket Oval on June 14, 2024.
It should however be noted that over the years, several Ugandan musicians have faced the same embarrassment.
In December of last year 2023, during a live performance in Kajjansi, David Lutalo, the talented singer, experienced an unexpected mishap.
While passionately singing his hit song "Gunsituula," he accidentally slipped and tumbled onto the stage.
Despite the sudden fall, Lutalo appeared to be unharmed as he swiftly regained his composure. However, a hint of surprise could be seen on his face, possibly due to the fortunate absence of any serious injuries.
Fortunately, the event organizers promptly rearranged the stage boards, allowing the show to seamlessly carry on.
In May 2023, during a wedding ceremony in Kampala, singer Violah Nakitinde experienced an unfortunate incident.
While she was performing and leading the brides, she slipped on a wet carpet due to her high-heeled shoes, causing her to fall awkwardly to the ground.
