Local comedian MC Mariachi is sorry to all Muslims who felt offended by some of his recent skits. He promises to be more careful going forward.
This is not the first time that a Ugandan comedian is sending out an apology for cracking jokes about a sensitive sect of the public. In May 2019, for a skit gone wrong, renown Ugandan comedy pair; Maulana and Reign, apologized to the Kabaka and people of Buganda Kingdom.
MC Mariachi, real name Charles Kasozi is now facimg the same criticism after cracking jokes which are said to have been “disrespectful” to the Muslim community on 20th July.
Mariachi allegedly said that he will convert to the Muslim faith to save money because “Muslims do not trim their beards” and that “Muslim women do not plait their hair.”
Mariachi’s words were quickly put under scrutiny and he has since been bashed by Moslems on social media and different media outlets.
