UCC Suspends Salt TV’s ‘Omusunsuzi’ Program Over Abusive Content

The show, which airs on weekdays from 6:00 am to 8:00 am, is hosted by presidential advisor Jennifer “Full Figure” Nakanguubi and veteran actor Charles Senkubuge.

In a letter dated September 13, 2025, UCC stated that its monitoring, coupled with numerous public complaints, revealed that the program contains abusive content, inappropriate language, and unprofessional conduct by the presenters.

The regulator noted with concern that these broadcasts take place during morning hours when children are likely to be watching, thereby exposing them to unsuitable material.

As part of its directive, UCC has tasked Salt TV to provide a written response to the complaints raised. The station has also been ordered to submit recordings of all Omusunsuzi episodes aired between August 1 and September 12, 2025.

The Commission has given the television station until Friday, September 19, 2025, to submit the requested materials for further review.

Salt TV has not yet issued a public statement in response to the suspension.
