Most of the pictures he took with Ugandan celebrities in South Africa, where he lived and worked.
Shakib is supposedly 32 years old and 11 years younger than his partner Zari Hassan.
On multiple occasions, Zari has come out to address concerns about their age gap.

Last night, however, questions about Lutaaya’s age came up once more, as social media users dug up his old pictures that show him hanging out with some of the older celebrities back in the day.
The craze started with one picture of Lutaaya posing with Bebe Cool’s wife Zuena Kirema.

Lutaaya explained later that the picture was taken by Bebe Cool himself when he had travelled with his wife to South Africa.
But questions emerged online as more aged pictures of Lutaaya hanging with other celebrities; the likes of Bobi Wine and the late Ivan Ssemwanga looking more or less as he does today.

“The way things look, Shakib might be older than Zari… In fact, Zari might be dating an ancestor,” posted one user on X.
“How do I explain to my kids that Shakib is a sugar daddy to Zari,” went another post.

The debate then morphed into a hilarious trend as some users photoshopped him in pictures from decades ago.
