Irene Namubiru Chosen to Represent Uganda on Mahatma Gandhi 150th Birth Anniversary
Irene Namubiru is a Diva of her own. She is chosen to represent Uganda mostly because of her uniqueness, both in voice and personality. Just after the recently concluded Miss Uganda UK competition where the song bird was among the few who presented. We have come to learn that Irene has yet been nominated for another challenge. She shared her gratitude in a Facebook post;
“I would like to thank the Indian High Commission in Uganda for trusting and Choosing me among the many talented singers in Uganda to be part of the 124 musicians from different Countries to represent my Country Uganda on this 150th Birth Anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi.
Covering VAISHNAV JAN TO was a challenge for me being that I had never spoken or known any Gujarati speaking person before. But I understood the song very well, It’s a prayer! That helped me pull it off. We all need PRAYER in our lives.
*Note Its not commercial. It was only meant for the 150th Birth Anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi
On the Occasion of 150th Birth Anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, the Prime Minister of India released the medley of Vaishnav Jan bhajan composed with the help of artists and musicians from 124 Countries.
I would like to thank you all for the positive feed back since it was first posted. You keep me going.”
