Ugandan singer Lil Pazo Lunabe has called for a possible ban on TikTok, accusing the popular social media platform of becoming a major channel for spreading misleading information and damaging people’s reputations.
The singer’s criticism follows a video from Kalifah Aganaga’s Nassanga Festival that recently resurfaced on TikTok. A blogger reportedly attached a caption alleging that Lil Pazo had assaulted a DJ and destroyed his laptop after the DJ refused to play his song, Enkudi.
The claims quickly drew attention online, prompting the singer to address the allegations during an interview with Galaxy TV.
Lil Pazo strongly denied being involved in any fight or damaging the DJ’s equipment. He maintained that the video had been given a misleading interpretation and insisted that his interaction with the DJ was about giving a young performer an opportunity to showcase her music.
The singer also rejected suggestions that he had a history of violent confrontations, saying he had maintained good relationships with DJs throughout his music career.
“For the time I have done music, I have never been involved in chaos. I’m not that kind of artist and no one has ever seen me being involved in a fight. The deejays are my brothers and they made me what I am today,” he said.
Lil Pazo blamed the spread of the allegations on people using TikTok to attach misleading captions to videos, arguing that such content can create a false impression of what actually happened.
He acknowledged that TikTok initially served as a useful platform but believes its growing influence requires closer scrutiny.
“It is because we have over relied on TikTok. At first it was a good app but I think it is high time they reviewed it for a possible ban. Some random TikToker came up with a misleading caption that I was fighting the deejay. I have never and do not hope to disrespect anyone. No situation can push me there and everyone can vouch for me. I was just asking the deejay to give the young girl a chance, which he later did,” he explained.
According to Lil Pazo, his actions at the festival were intended to support an upcoming female artist rather than create a confrontation with the DJ.
The singer’s remarks highlight growing concerns among public figures about how short social media clips and misleading captions can shape online narratives before the full circumstances are understood.
However, his call for TikTok to be reviewed or potentially banned reflects his personal position. The supplied account does not include a response from the blogger who posted the allegation or the DJ involved.
