It is official Valu Valu hitmaker Joseph Mayanja, known to many as Jose Chameleone will be vying for a political seat in Uganda come 2021.
This became apparent recently after it emerged the singer wanted to become the next Kampala City Lord Mayor.
TUKO.co.ke has learnt in January 2019 Ugandan grapevine intimated that the singer was preparing to try his luck in clinching the Kampala Lord mayoral seat, a position held by Lawyer Erias Lukwago for the last eight years.
Countless Ugandans, including his own fans dismissed the claims and passed them as mere rumours since the musician himself had not announced or confirmed the reports.
However, the rumour was recently put to rest by Chameleone's brother who confirmed indeed the singer will be vying in the upcoming elections in a bid to become the next Lord Mayor of Kampala City.
“It is not a joke, Chameleone is coming as Lord Mayor. The old people have done their part as leaders of this country, its now our turn as young people,” he said.
If indeed he vies and wins, he will be the second biggest Ugandan musician to successfully join politics after Bobi Wine.
