"You know, I have a daily program, so I'm just trying to be honest with you guys because everyone is just saying whatever they can, but they don't know what happened," Nwagi, who is 23, told journalists at the launch of Karole Kasita's album on Thursday. "That day I had a gym program. I was already on my way to the gym when my boss called and told me to stop by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to work on renewing my passport. When I got there, they told me I couldn't because of the way I was dressed."
The Ministry said that if there hadn't been kids around that day, no one would have noticed her offensive clothing.
"When she came in, none of our employees had seen her, but some small children whose parents had come to our office to get passports were pointing at her. Why? Because of how she was dressed, those kids, who were only 8 or 9 years old, were also upset. They were pointing at her and wondering why someone would dress that way "Simon Mundeyi, a spokesman for the ministry, told reporters on August 8:
"She had on very short pants, which I think are called "hot pants." The public could see the whole lower body. Even though she was putting on a big jacket, it was torn and the thighs were showing. It was full of holes everywhere, and the area around the breasts was also showing "he went on.
"And the breasts were almost coming out of the body. Because it scared the kids, it caught the attention of the police officers who were in charge of keeping the place safe." Nwagi says that in the end, fixers helped her get her passport back. "I don't have much to say about it. "I'm just glad I finally got my passport, and I'm so happy," she said when asked if she went back. "There are fixers," she said when asked if she did go back." The "Matala" singer says she doesn't cause trouble, but some people don't like her because she is honest.
