During the launch, the chairperson of Olusoga Mpuku, Naika Latifu, gave a background of the initiative, which began in 2022. He explained that the 2025 edition was interrupted before completion because of several challenges, meaning contestants who had already been nominated will continue their journey in the 2026 competition. According to the organizers, the 2026 edition will resume from the second phase of the previous competition, while also introducing additional activities, including sports and other competitive engagements intended to make the program more entertaining and increase community participation. The grand finale is expected to attract a wide range of music lovers, with some of the region’s popular musicians and entertainers set to grace the event. The musical line-up includes Gravity Omutujju, Kabako, Hassan Nduga, B2C, Malagala, Tough Sojja, Uncle Hoe, Roo Ya Simba, Emmax Basta, Horse De Master, Kim Nana, Tinah Baiby, King Sanya, Bad Quta, Gen Nalufenya, Land Sojja, Vespa Music, Spark Bombers and Brother Rooney, among others. The event will also feature comedy and online entertainment personalities, including Tata Kimbowa, Kimbowa and Mama Kimbowa, who are known for their presence on TikTok and social media entertainment. With such a broad line-up, the organizers are positioning the grand finale as more than just a competition, but as a major entertainment gathering bringing together music, comedy, culture and community celebration. During the launch, the KBS FM management also emphasized the importance of giving young people opportunities to participate in cultural and media activities. The station highlighted the contribution of young media personalities, including Harry Kovic, a KBS FM presenter known for his entertainment programming. Kovic hosts the “Friday ChaChancha” show every Friday from 10PM to 2AM, featuring music mixes, celebrity interviews and entertainment discussions.

The station's management encouraged more young people to participate in Olusoga Mpuku and other community initiatives, emphasizing that the creativity and energy of the younger generation can play an important role in the development of Busoga's cultural and entertainment industry.
