The development comes just weeks after another major concert featuring The Ben and Diamond Platnumz in Kampala was also called off, highlighting the growing impact of the health crisis on Uganda’s entertainment industry.
Christopher had been scheduled to perform at “Code 250,” a concert set to take place on June 2, 2026, at Black Panther Kampala, one of the city’s popular venues for live music events.
In a statement shared on his social media platforms on May 31, 2026, the singer expressed his disappointment over the postponement while assuring fans that the decision was made with public safety in mind.
Christopher explained that the cancellation was not due to any issues involving him or the event organizers, but rather concerns surrounding the ongoing Ebola situation in Uganda.
According to the artist, the decision was taken to protect the health and well-being of fans, members of his team, and the wider public.
He noted that although postponing the event was not an easy decision, safeguarding lives had to remain the top priority. He also thanked his supporters for their continued love and understanding during this period.
Christopher encouraged fans to remain patient, promising that a new date for the concert would be announced once health authorities determine that it is safe for large gatherings to resume.
The event organizers echoed the singer’s remarks, stating that the postponement was made in compliance with guidelines issued by Uganda’s Ministry of Health aimed at containing the spread of Ebola and minimizing potential health risks.
The concert was expected to mark one of Christopher’s major performances in Uganda following the release of his latest album, “H2O.” Many fans had been looking forward to seeing him perform songs from the project live for the first time.
With several events already affected by the outbreak, Uganda’s entertainment sector continues to face challenges as authorities work to contain the disease and protect public health.
