The key suspect in the murder of popular musician Moses Ssekibogo alias Mowzey Radio has for the first time spoken out.
Godfrey Wamala aka Troy was arrested by Uganda Police on Sunday night from Kyengera Town where he had been holed up since he allegedly assaulted Radio and damaged his brains in a bar brawl in Entebbe two weeks ago.
Earlier reports indicated that Troy was a bouncer at De Bar and reportedly attacked Radio who picked a disagreement with his boss (bar owner) Wesega.
TrumpetNews can exclusively reveal while being interrogated by detectives at Katwe Police on Sunday night, Troy denied working as a bouncer and neither attacking Radio.
But he admitted there is a protracted argument between the singer and other parties over booze and money.
Wamala further said he was among the customers in the bar and witnessed the disagreement.
However, he doesn’t tell whether he saw Radio being beaten into coma at the club.
Among the people who were in company of Radio is producer Washington who on Monday appeared on local televsion NBS and asserted that the suspect (Wamala) is the real killer of Radio.
Washington who is considered as the prime witness like Wamala revealed, confirmed there is a disagreement.
But in this case Wamala grabbed Radio at the bar entrance (Radio was leaving), lifted him and threw him down, “I heard Radio’s skull crack and immediately his eyes shut,” he said.
