Cindy Sanyu raves Kasese in post-marathon party

Since the inception of the Tusker Lite Rwenzori Marathon, the mountains become the place to be when the event rolls. This year, it wasn’t only about the run, but the fun that came after as well.

Kasese’s Stanley Street came alive in vibrant neon, music and celebration to crown the second edition of the Tusker Lite Mt. Rwenzori Marathon on Saturday night.
Earlier in the day, over 2,000 runners had raced the tourism rich region, marvelling at the majestic Rwenzori Mountain ranges that provided a scenic backdrop. And at nightfall, the finishing point turned into a party zone with singer Cindy Sanyu as the headlining act.
Cindy proved her moniker, “The King Herself” as she had the fully packed street singing along to her chart-topping hits, which included “Boom Party,” “Onina”, “Fire”, “Run This City”, “Ayokyayokya” and more.

Her powerful vocals, electrifying dancehall moves, and energy had everyone on their feet under the neon lights.
“Thank you everyone out here tonight. You are the reason I keep doing this. I’m thrilled to be here. I love the energy and I love the people of Kasese,” Cindy said as she drew the curtains on her performance.
The event also provided a platform to Kasese local entertainers to showcase their talents to the whole country as it was broadcast live on national TV.
Good Hope was the stand out act as the crowd vibed to his music that had Afro Beat and Lingala influences. Other local performers included DJ Trouble, Freddy Tinny, DJ Kevin and DJ Assasin.

It was a transformation as the street had gone from hosting one of the biggest sporting event in the region to a themed party. The Tusker Lite Neon Street Rave has in the past been held in various cities such as Jinja and Fort Portal.
Though climaxing a marathon was memorable not just for the run participants but even for the people of Kasese.
As the event came to a close, the memories of the night will undoubtedly linger in the hearts and minds of all who attended. It was a night that elevated the spirit of Kasese town and served as a reminder that when people come together, memories are made..
