Ibrahim Nathan, the Day Star Cathedral bishop condemned the act of performers using dangerous items in the name of entertaining fans.
He instead advised them to stick to stunts they can handle other than opting for the ones that put their lives in danger.
“We were seated when we saw fire. At first we thought it was fake fire, only to realize it was real fire. We saw him run off stage and that’s how they ended their act. They said it was a mistake done by one of their fellow members. Mark is a church member and has been singing in our church for quite some time,” Bishop Nathan revealed.
“I have spent 40 years in service and this was the first incident to happen in our church. I had never seen someone sing with fire, they had smeared themselves with certain jelly to surprise the congregation, and this has taught us that as church leaders, we should always be cautius.” He added.
Mark T is currently admitted and receiving medical attention at Embassy Medical Clinic in Nyamityobora, Mbarara City.
