In an official statement, organisers expressed genuine remorse and disappointment, attributing the shift in schedule to an unexpected event occurring at the venue the day before.
The statement read, "It is with sincere regret and disappointment that we announce the unexpected postponement of the UB40 featuring Ali Campbell concert scheduled for the 21st day of December 2023 at the Kololo Independence Grounds due to an unforeseeable event at the same venue that is beyond our control."
The abrupt change has understandably disheartened all involved parties and the organisers extended sincere apologies to stakeholders, partners, and patrons for any inconvenience caused.

Reassuringly, a new date for the celebration of NBS at 15 will be communicated in due course and previously purchased tickets will remain valid.
However, speculation suggests that the primary reason for the concert's postponement could be the book launch of Uganda's 1st Deputy Prime Minister, Rebecca Alitwala Kadaga, titled "The Path Way to Greatness."
The launch, scheduled for tomorrow (Wednesday) afternoon at 3:00 pm at Kololo Airstrip, has caused logistical challenges for the concert organisers, making it impractical to set up within a single day.
In a social media announcement, Rebecca Alitwala Kadaga shared her excitement about the upcoming book launch, further solidifying the clash of events at the same venue.
