Fresh Kid who is born in allow earning family is known for his songs such as “Banteeka” and hos latest hit “Bambi” in which he appeals to the minister of state for youth and children Florence Nakiwala Kiyingi not to block his singing career.
Fresh Kid has been in the spotlight over the last couple of weeks after the minister of state for Youth Affairs, Florence Nakiwala Kiyingi ordered him to stop singing and return to school.
Recent Reports indicate that minister for youth and children affairs Nakiwala kiyingi Intended to enroll the young musician in a boarding school and that has got him a scholarship to study at St. Savio Kisubi, a boarding school but Fresh Kid’s family and his manager rejected the move which they say it aimed at curtailing the freedom of young musician to exploit his talent so they needed a solution that would not enable him to study while pursuing his music career.
