Ugandan musician sorry for kissing brother while on stage

Ugandan musician Jose Chameleone, real name Joseph Mayanja, has issued an apology for kissing his brother on the lips while on stage during a concert performance on Friday in the capital, Kampala.

It wasn’t the first time the brothers kissed on stage, but recently there has been a sharp rise in anti-gay sentiments in the country, with calls for a crackdown on promoters of same-sex relations.

Jose Chameleone’s kiss with his musician brother Weasel saw an influential preacher registering a complaint with the Uganda police against the pair.

“I know most of my friends have been offended and didn’t carry it lightly. I sincerely apologise. It was just too much energy, excitement. I actually regret it,” the musician said in a tweeted video.
