Capital Radio recently issued a press statement addressing a Twitter-fueled rumor surrounding its employee, Lucky Mbabazi, and the CEO, Peter Mungoma. The rumor was initially sparked by a tweet from Rahma Nakands, alleging romantic involvement among Capital staff, specifically mentioning Lucky Mbabazi, Peter Mungoma, and Gaetano Kaggwa.
Dated September 27, 2023, Capital vehemently refutes these baseless and false allegations. They consider these claims deserving of contempt and emphasize their commitment to maintaining a positive working environment for all employees. The station underscores this commitment with evidence of publicly available images showcasing social events designed for employee interaction and team-building.
Furthermore, the radio asserts that these allegations aim to distort the station’s cordial and collegial atmosphere. To address the situation, they have engaged the services of Lex Uganda Advocates and Solicitors, collaborating tirelessly with law enforcement to hold those responsible for these malicious statements and defamation accountable.
In their own words, Capital states, “Capital Radio considers these allegations to be baseless and false and should deservedly be dismissed with contempt. Capital Radio maintains a positive working environment for all its staff, conducting social events for employee interaction and teambuilding as is proved by the publicly available images. This false report is malicious, regrettable and intended to misrepresent the cordial and collegial environment at Capital Radio.”
