Allan Hendrick Ssali has revealed his open opinion about the looming controversial debate of the social media tax.
The first born to Gagamel CEO, Bebe Cool and Software Engineering student at IUEA has raised eyebrows following his recent interview with the Observer, a local newspaper. During the interview, Hendrick was asked about his opinion on social media tax (OTT) one of the controversial topics dominating Uganda for over the past three months.
Unlike his father Bebe Cool, Hendrick disagrees with the idea of making citizens pay for OTT every month.
“Personally, I don’t support the OTT tax but people were misusing social media. People rioted but nothing happened although it has helped to reduce the walala. People who used to post nonsense are no longer there. I think there is a better way to control WhatsApp than OTT,” Hendrick said.
Hendrick was also asked why he looked so happy when his father was chased from stage during the Swangz Avenue Tarrus Riley Concert. In his reply, Hendrick noted that throwing bottles at his dad was traumatizing but maintains the fact that he was not laughing at his father.
“It was an unfortunate experience, throwing bottles. That was traumatizing for a son. People were using their eyes but not brains. Nobody can laugh at his father; those are haters and at the end of the day, he is my father and nobody can replace him,” Hendrick added.
The IUEA Software Engineering student also shared his hateful experience at Campus which he thinks is caused by being a son to Bebe Cool as he described him as the most hated artist.
“Bebe Cool is one of the most hated artistes by people… people see you and hate you on sight… at school it is even worse.” Hendrick confessed.
Being one of the most silent and soft spoken celebrity sons, Hendrick seems to have no time for city money-minded slay queens as he revealed that he is in a private relationship with no intentions of chasing girl after girl.
“Sirina budde. I’m not single but I’m not for every girl. I have a private relationship. I don’t want to make mistakes – as you know this social media era,” he submitted.
Hendrick set the record straight.
