Angella Katatumba
Kampala
SHE kept away from the music scene last year to concentrate on humanitarian work through her foundation and the For You Gulu project.
The project registered success and Katatumba recorded For You, a song that sought to create awareness about the plight of the people in Gulu.
Now she is doing the same to heal the wounds of genocide in Rwanda, only not for free.
A confidant to the singer said Katatumba is set to earn up to sh50m for composing and recording a song about the 1994 Rwandan genocide that will be sung while commemorating the 13th anniversary of the genocide next month.
The song is titled forgiveness but has a Kinyarwanda chorus.
