Kampala Socialite Katrina Nilzero Dubs Former ‘Bestie’ Sheilah Gashumba a “Dummy,” Declares She Has Moved On
In a stunning and blunt public dismissal, popular Kampala socialite Katrina Nilzero has described her former partner-in-crime and close friend, media personality Sheilah Gashumba, as “a dummy,” signaling a dramatic end to their once-high-profile friendship.
Speaking in a recent interview, Katrina reflected on her past relationship with the former television host, with whom she was famously known for painting the town red. She stated she has completely outgrown the bond and moved on from their heydays.
“I see Sheilah Gashumba like a dummy, she means nothing to me,” Katrina declared. She further rationalized her stance by adding, “If a man can die and you move on, how about someone you just met in Kampala? It is not a must that you stay close with someone.”
The comments reveal a stark and cold conclusion to a friendship that was once a staple of Kampala’s social scene.
Emphasizing her new chapter, Katrina highlighted significant investments in her personal development and business ventures. She noted her recent acquisition of a house and the launch of her own fashion store, “Katrina Fashion Finds,” as evidence of her independent success and lack of need for her former friend.
“I bought a house a few months ago and have now launched my own fashion store… so I need nothing from Sheila,” she explained, underscoring her financial and personal autonomy.
She ended with a philosophical note on the nature of friendships, stating, “Yes, we were close, but people outgrow each other.”
The public fallout adds a new layer of drama to Kampala’s celebrity circles, showcasing the fleeting nature of high-profile social alliances. As of now, Sheilah Gashumba has not publicly responded to Katrina’s pointed remarks.
