Kenya music icon Wyre, real name Kevin Waire, has revealed his connection to the Wandegeya chicken, which always solved his late-night hunger problems during his days in Uganda as part of the East African Bashment crew.
During an interview, when asked what the first thing he would do would be when he lands in Uganda, “Wandegeya chicken,” Wyre smoothly responded, leaving everyone shocked.
He went on to narrate his history with the famous delicious chicken sold in Wandegeya, which is often enjoyed by Makerere University campus goers after their night outs.

Similarly, Wyre noted that he can never forget how the Wandegeya chicken tastes because it’s a delicacy he always enjoyed with Bebe Cool, Peter Miles, and Menshan after their performances in Kampala.
We’ve got history with Wandegeya chicken. At 3 am after shows with Bebe Cool, Peter Miles, and Menshan. Trust me, that is one taste I will never forget.
Uganda’s street delicacies – the chicken and Rolex sold on the streets – are some of the unforgettable things foreigners often remember about the country. It’s such an interesting highlight of the country’s nightlife.
