Simphiwe took to Twitter to share that her heart is heavy because of what is taking place in the East African country Uganda. Uganda is currently about to undergo presidential elections and the government has banned social media ahead of them.
President Yoweri Museveni has won every presidential election since 1996 but he is now up against some tough opposition in the popular singer, Bob Wine.
Internet users in the country have been complaining about not being able to access social media platforms to campaign.
Simphiwe Dana said that she was heartbroken about the situation and is wondering what the African Union (AU) is going to do about it.
