However, her promoters, Abtex Promotions, he filed a case of theft at Kampala Central Police Station yesterday, according to Aloysious Matovu Kizza Junior, the company’s spokesperson.
“There is still confusion on who exactly stole the laptop. While we understand that Yvonne’s belongings were bundled into a white van owned by security agents, police have told us if anything was lost, it should be the private driver Najib Sula, hired by the hotel to chauffeur the singer to the airport, to answer and police had opened up a case of theft against Mr Sula,†Mr Matovu said.
Police had offered to take Chaka Chaka in their car but she refused saying that would make her look like she had committed a crime. It is at this point that management of Pearl of Africa Hotel called in Najib.
