Spending 2 Nights In Prison Was Terrifying – Tems

Popular singer, Tems has come out to recall the time she was jailed for two days in Uganda.

She recently had her say during an interview with radio show host Angie Martinez, and fans have been reacting.

According to Tems, she spent two nights in prison and she thought she wasn’t going to come out because she had no phone and no communication with the outside world to know what efforts were being made to free her.

Tems added that herself and Omah Lay didn’t exactly break any rules, and their arrest was a set up from a local artist who promised to deal with them.

Her words, “I thought I wasn’t gonna come out. I thought I was seeing it for a reason like maybe I was meant to help the people. I was settling in because I adapted real quick and as I was walking in I started to cry because they gave me my uniform and it stunk because they don’t wash it. It was a small room and there was nothing, there’s just the floor they give you blankets and tissues and you’re just on the floor, no bed and I did it for two days. I didn’t even know I was going to get out, I didn’t have any ears on the ground nobody told me anything. Outside everyone was like ‘free Tems, free Omah lay’ but inside I was just hopeful, waiting.”

“Once I walked in everyone turned and looked at me and whispering and I was like ‘what have I done? I can’t cry’ and I just started winking, that was my way of adapting. I must show these people that I’m confident so I started being extra winking and saying hi and they were laughing.”

WOW.
