Tems
Muyiwa Awoniyi, the manager of Grammy-winning songstress, Tems has claimed she conducted praise and worship in a prison cell when she was detained by the Uganda police in 2020.
In December 2020, Tems, Omah Lay and some.of their team members were detained in Kampala, Uganda for flouting COVID-19 guidelines.
Awoniyi said Tems had the prisoners singing with her on the latest episode of Menisms’ audiovisual podcast hosted Olumurewa and Michael Sonariwo.
“Entering prison, as a woman, Tems, they [prison warders] took her to the female section.
“I was just worried about her. I was not with her. I was just wondering what the hell is going on with her.
“I will come to find out that Tems conducted praise and worship in a whole prison cell.
“Everybody was singing with her. She took over the whole prison.” (The Nation)
