TIZA MUKUKA BLASTS ZAMBIAN ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY OVER MWINE MUSHI’S DEATH
By Chilu Tambatamba
ZAMBIA’s youth advocate Tiza Mukuka has accused artists of turning their backs on Robam Mwape during his struggles, only to show up with empty tributes and fake tears after his death.
“All of you in the Zambian entertainment industry should be ashamed of yourselves actors, actresses, and musicians. You are hypocrites!”
“Robam Mwape famously known as Mwine Mushi was a household name, a man of talent. Yet he died poor because the very people who claimed to love him chose to ignore him when he needed them most. You abandoned him in a place like Solwezi, instead of uniting to buy him a house in Lusaka. Now you want to act like you cared? Stop lying to the people,” Mukuka charged.
He went further to point out that this toxic culture of neglect and backstabbing is the very reason why hitmaker Yo Maps avoids associating with other Zambian artists.
“Yo Maps knows the industry is rotten that’s why he’s better off alone. And you all know it too,” Mukuka concluded.

What’s this deranged boy talking about? Mwine Mushi had his own private life which his fellow citizens had no right to interfere with. If he didn’t open up to them on what was eating him inside, sorry, there’s nothing anyone could hv done. And what’s special about Lusaka? What’s wrong with living in Solwezi? And why should his fellow artistes have bought him a house? The young man is struggling to think straight.
I am at a loss as to what this young man is trying to say as well…
What is wrong in someone living in Kaputa, Shangombo, Manyika, Gweembe or wherever it is in Zambia….
Everyone is going through issues and these issues are not meant for the Public….
I am pretty sure he must have confided with his close buddies….
