Nigerian singer, Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has described her ordeal in Ugandan prison as a blessing in disguise.
New Telegraph recalls that Tems and Omah Lay were arrested, charged to court and subsequently detained in Ugandan prison for making an appearance at a concert held in the country at Speke Resort, Kampala, on December 12, 2020, despite COVID-19 social distancing regulations.
They were both granted bail after two nights in jail.

Speaking on the incident with ES Magazine, Tems claimed she felt honored to have experienced prison.
She explained that she wouldn’t have known what prisoners were going through if she hadn’t had the experience herself, adding that her prison experience humbled her.
Tems said; “Prison was once in a lifetime experience that I actually feel honoured to have had because otherwise, I would never have thought about these people, and to be in their presence was very humbling,”
