Heads Up’s sources in Uganda have hinted that Chameleone is among musicians whose music will be used during the campaign trail for President Yoweri Museveni in 2016.
He was allegedly given over 500 million Uganda shillings to share with Bebe Cool, Radio and Weasel.
Recently, Chameleone was spotted in a meeting with the first couple, Yoweri Museveni and his wife Janet Museveni.
He later posted the photo captioning it: “It was a great honour sharing a moment with His Excellency President of the Republic Uganda Yoweri Museveni and the First Lady Janet Museveni. This is about youth empowerment and skills,” he said.
This is not the first time he has been spotted with the first family.

In December 2014, first Lady, Janet Kataha Museveni hailed singer, Jose Chameleone for having offered a helping hand by organising the ‘One Man, One Million’ show to help the people of Karamoja.
In her speech, Mrs Museveni who was the chief guest at the function, heaped praises on Chameleone for having such a talent and at the same time, a helping heart.
“I want to salute Chameleone. These days, it’s everyone for himself and God for us all, but Chameleone has this giving spirit. Thanks for the early Christmas gift for the people of Karamoja,” she said.
