Security sources say that by Thursday last week, the Ugandan army got information that LRA rebels had sent spies to Nimule (an area located on the Sudan – Uganda boarder).

In a bid to stop any likely advancement of LRA rebels, SPLA soldiers are scrutinizing whoever enters or gets out of sudan via Nimule.

We have been told also that following this information, the Democratic Republic of Congo and the Central African Republic soldiers are on high alert to curb any advancement of LRA rebels. Recently US sent 100 commandos to hunt for LRA rebels and bring them to book.

We are told by members of Bobi Wine’s firebase crew that Balamu enterprises is in talks with the two music stars to accept to iron out their differences and stage a show together.

We hear Balamu told Bebe and Bobi Wine that once they accept to make a reunion show thousands of people will attend it thus making millions of Uganda shillings.

Balamu was persuading the two music rivals to accept to have the show on the New Year’s Day. However it is still hard to believe that Balamu’s attempt will work out because Bebe Cool recently called Bobi Wine’s wedding as a mere show off something which annoyed the Ghetto president so much.
