Renowned Ugandan events promoter Biggie Events, real name Mariam Mutakubwa, is set to spend this year’s Christmas behind bars after being remanded to Luzira Prison for six months.
According to reports, the Kampala businesswoman was sent to prison until May 2026 after failing to clear a debt of UGX 70 million owed to a one Tumusiime David.
Court prosecutor Sarah Komukya revealed that Biggie was arrested around Ham Building in Kampala and taken to court over the long-standing debt case. When she failed to pay the money, the court had no choice but to send her to prison.
“Court remanded her to eat some prison food as she looks for the money to pay for her freedom, or else spend the full time and later clear more legal costs,” Komukya said.
Sources say Tumusiime had made several private attempts to recover his money before finally dragging Biggie to court.
The court ruling means Biggie will remain in prison until she either pays the full amount or reaches a legal settlement.
