28-year-old Guvnor Ace (born Ronald Samawere) who had earlier been accused of ‘dating an ancestor’ got married to 68-year-old LisaJohnson on August 20 in a civil ceremony held at the Uganda Registration Service Bureau in Kampala before friends and family members.
Speaking to Uganda’s WBS TV on why he married his wife, the Ugandan dance-hall artiste said that young girls are a financial liability and some are not genuine.
“I have no regrets, because these young girls will ask for airtime and on sending it, they will not even call you, all they do is to beep. All they do is beg!” he said
On how he met his wife, Lisa Johnson he revealed,
“I shared my Gutujja video in 2014 on my wall and this was Lisa’s comment, ‘I like the way he sings though I don’t know what he’s singing about.’ It was then that I sent her a Facebook request.”
Debunking claims that he married his wife because of money, he said,
“We’ve been chatting for close to eleven months, so I don’t get it when people say that I’m in it for money. They call her a pensioner but as far as I’m concerned, she is still working and earning.”
On what he love about his new wife, he said
“Last December, she opted to come to Uganda to celebrate Christmas with me and since then, we’ve been inseparable. Lisa likes me the way I am and she likes my music too, otherwise someone else would want you to remove your dreads and give up on music just to be with them.”
