At the peak of her career, Fifi shocked her fans and resigned from Bukedde TV in April 2020. Some started speculating that she was forced out due to her strong links with People Power (NUP) as Vision Group is a state run media house.

Kulya cash among others and I was irreplaceable dats why bwenva mu show abadamu bavuya. I’m glad I was among the pioneers of bukedde Tv n among those few the audience accepted n loved the way we were.
And I pray it’s not us it stopped on kubanga audience ezira.
The maturity in me could not allow me stay for long so wen ma wings grew I had to fly.
On several interviews Fifi has always urged presenters to look further and quit low paying journalism jobs.
As we speak, Fifi left Uganda with her children and settled in Canada. Her husband, Abdullah Nsubuga aka Fab Love was the first person to leave, however, he is in the US.
Following MC Kats and Alien Skin’s scuffle at Geosteady’s show at Hotel Africana, she has advised veteran journalists to retire before it’s late.
Nga bwetwakoowa abafuzi abulede muntebbe, bwetukooye neba presenters abawoza tuludewo nga mwonona bintu namwe muwumule by force. Buli mukadde mu political n Journalism word nga mutandise kwonona retire before late.
