Quote from Emmy Hashakimana, Marketing & Innovation Director, Uganda Breweries Limited. “True to our purpose-Celebrating Life, every day, Everywhere-we are proud to join MTN Uganda and DFCU in this musical celebration of life”.
Boyz 2 Men is a blend of talented individuals that have developed their craft over time…a perfect fit for Johnnie Walker that is the perfect blend of single malt Scotch Whiskies that have been aged over time to deliver a liquid with big flavour just like the beautiful music we are looking forward to enjoying with you. We shall also have a Tusker Lite experience at the event.
We thank Radio Group Africa for making this possible and look forward to an experiencing second
to none for you all.
