Kasuku Linked To Possible Ambassadorial Role Abroad
Rumours are swirling that renowned media personality Isaac Katende, alias Kasuku, could soon land an ambassadorial role abroad, although neither the government nor the media personality has officially confirmed the reports.
The speculation gained momentum after veteran journalist Sudhir Byaruhanga claimed that credible sources had informed him about the possible appointment.
Prime-time news anchor Canary Mugume also revealed that he had heard similar information from his own contacts, further fueling the conversation online.
Supporters quickly embraced the rumours across social media, with some users pushing the hashtag “#KasukuForAmbassador,” while others jokingly nicknamed him the “Ambassador of Luseke.”
Some observers have linked the speculation to Kasuku’s March meeting with President Kaguta Museveni, where creatives and content creators met the Head of State before later receiving a UGX 5 billion support pledge.
The rumours have also sparked debate online, with critics questioning whether Kasuku’s background in entertainment and social commentary aligns with diplomatic work.
Others, however, argue that public influence, communication skills, and cultural visibility can also play a role in ambassadorial appointments.
Despite the growing speculation, neither Kasuku nor the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has publicly addressed the reports.
