Singer Opens Up About Family Pain and Past Troubles.
Music star Iryn Namubiru shared deep hurts from her past on TV. She talked about her broken ties with her mother and a hard time in Japan.
"I have not talked to my mother in eleven years," Namubiru said. This came after she was caught with drugs at Tokyo's airport in 2013.
The singer learned her manager, Tedius, had put the drugs in her bags. She fired him right away. But her pain grew when her mother acted strange about it all.
Namubiru said her mother seemed odd at first. Then she started saying she did nothing wrong before anyone blamed her. Phone records later showed the singer something bad about her mother.
The star wrote down all these facts but has not shared them yet. If anything happens to her, she plans to let others see the phone records and papers.
Namubiru stopped making music after these hard times. "I have been dead inside for more than eleven years," she said. Being hurt by trusted friends took away her love of music.
"People you trust can hurt you the most," she said. "Words can kill you inside, more in places where some things must stay quiet."
The singer keeps track of mean words people write about her online. She finds out who writes these things by checking computer numbers, and what she finds shocked her.
Namubiru also lived through a boat crash on Lake Victoria in 2014. She almost stayed home that day but went out with a friend. A voice told her she would live, and she did.
Her story shows how someone can face big troubles and still stand strong. She keeps proof of what happened, waiting for the right time to tell more.
