Karole Kasita's Concert Gets Green Light from Ministry of Health Despite Ebola Worries

Ugandan artist Karole Kasita’s highly anticipated concert, “The Power Within,” has received the official go-ahead from the Ministry of Health. The event is scheduled to take place on Friday, May 29, 2026, at the prestigious Kampala Serena Hotel.

This clearance comes after a period of uncertainty, with public health concerns surrounding the ongoing Ebola outbreak in Uganda casting a shadow over large gatherings. However, a confirmation from Karole Kasita’s manager, Arnold Apple Ssempijja, has assured fans that the show will proceed as planned.

The approval from the Ministry of Health, signed by the Director General of Health Services, Prof. Charles Olaro, is contingent upon the implementation of rigorous health and safety protocols. These measures are designed to mitigate any potential risks associated with the Ebola virus and ensure the well-being of all attendees.

Organizers have been proactive in notifying health authorities and establishing comprehensive safety plans. The Ministry of Health acknowledged these efforts, commending the organizers for their commitment to public safety during the mass gathering. Attendees are strongly urged to adhere to all Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and public health guidelines disseminated by the Ministry throughout the event.

Further collaboration is expected with Dr. JB Waniaye Nambohe, Commissioner for Emergency Medical Services, who is leading the Mass Gathering Sub-Pillar within the national Ebola response team. Karole Kasita is reportedly preparing a spectacular performance for what promises to be a career-defining event, with several guest artists expected to grace the stage.
