Mesach Semakula, a prominent figure in Uganda’s music industry, has finally addressed his previous silence regarding the paternity and DNA controversy that has surfaced concerning the late musician Paul Job Kafeero.

In a recent interview, Semakula explained that his reticence stemmed from a principle of not commenting on issues he has no firsthand experience with. Despite sharing a close bond with Kafeero, even visiting him in the hospital shortly before his passing, Semakula asserted that he was not privy to the intimate details of the late singer’s personal life.

“I knew Kafeero, but I didn’t know his bedroom,” Semakula stated, underscoring that close friendship does not equate to complete knowledge of another person’s private affairs. He further noted that he never observed the kind of behavior that some individuals are now alleging about Kafeero’s relationships.

Semakula also voiced disapproval of the increasing trend of people offering opinions on sensitive family matters without possessing genuine insight. He believes that individuals who were truly close to Kafeero’s personal and family life are the most qualified to speak on such sensitive topics. He urged others to refrain from speculation and allow those closest to the situation to handle it.

This explanation offers insight into Semakula’s approach to public discourse on private matters, particularly when it involves former colleagues and friends. He emphasizes the importance of respecting privacy and relying on verified information over hearsay.
