IGANGA, UGANDA — Police in the Busoga East region have launched an inquiry into the stoning of a vehicle belonging to Ugandan musician Patrick Mulwana, popularly known as Alien Skin.
The incident took place on April 13, 2025, in Lukono, Lukono Parish, Northern Division, Iganga District.
Alien Skin was a scheduled performer at an event held to belatedly celebrate International Women’s Day. The event was attended by the Prime Minister, Robinah Nabbanja. According to Busoga East Police Spokesperson Michael Kafayo, following her address to the attendees, Prime Minister Nabbanja left the stage, paving the way for Alien Skin’s performance.
“When he (Alien Skin) was still performing, somebody came from the audience and wanted to greet him but was stopped by his guards. In that process, this man caused the scuffle there, and they ended up hitting him on the nose. He bled from the nose, which sparked the audience. Some members of the audience got annoyed and caused more problems,” Kafayo explained.
He further stated that Alien Skin subsequently left the stage, and as he was departing the venue, a group of angered individuals from the audience he had been entertaining pursued him and began pelting his vehicle with stones.
“They smashed his vehicle. Now, the police are investigating those hooligans who caused all those problems,” Kafayo confirmed.
