Fik Fameica Tells Makerere Guild President, “Leave My Stage!” in Freshers Ball Showdown

What was expected to be a night of music, celebration and excitement turned into an unexpected stage confrontation

The incident unfolded shortly after Fik Fameica took to the stage and began entertaining the excited student audience. However, the performance took an unexpected turn when Kadondi, accompanied by members of her team, walked onto the platform and took the microphone, reportedly seeking an opportunity to address the student body. Her move appeared to stem from concerns that she had not been given an opportunity to speak to the students earlier in the programme. But the interruption did not sit well with the singer.

Fik Fameica, seemingly determined to continue his performance, challenged the Guild President’s decision to interrupt his set and demanded that she leave the stage. “Leave my stage! I have work to do,” he reportedly told her. What followed was a brief but tense standoff involving security personnel and members of the respective teams. Meanwhile, sections of the audience could be heard chanting the singer’s name, adding to the intensity of the moment. Kadondi eventually stepped off the stage, allowing Fik Fameica to resume his performance and continue entertaining the crowd. A Clash of Entertainment and Student Leadership? Beyond the dramatic exchange, the incident has raised an interesting question about the relationship between student leadership and entertainment at university events. On one hand, the Guild President is the elected representative of the student body. Her desire to address students at an event organised within the university environment is understandable, particularly if she felt excluded from the programme.

On the other hand, performers are often engaged under specific schedules, and interruptions can disrupt their performances, audience engagement and contractual arrangements. The disagreement therefore goes beyond two personalities sharing a stage. It highlights the importance of communication, event coordination and respect for established programmes. Social Media Reacts The confrontation has since attracted mixed reactions, with students and online audiences expressing divided opinions. While some have defended Fik Fameica, arguing that an artist deserves uninterrupted time to deliver a scheduled performance, others believe Kadondi deserved an opportunity to speak, considering her position as the university’s Guild President. For many, the bigger concern is how such disagreements are handled, especially at events meant to bring the university community together. What do you think? Was Fik Fameica right to defend his performance time, or should the Guild President have been given an opportunity to address the students? Join the conversation in the comments
