We all remember him from the famous “Tano Tena” song, the earworm that was crafted to praise the Jubilee administration during the 2017 General Election. The song was played at virtually every Jubilee rally. Through the lyrics, gospel singer Ben Githae urged Kenyans to reelect President Uhuru Kenyatta’s government with his deputy, William Ruto.
When the election was annulled by the Supreme Court, Githae was back at it, with “wembe ni ule ule”. In the song, he derided the Judiciary for nullifying the election and urged voters to go back to the polls and vote in the president and his deputy. Well, he has done it again. This time, it’s a BBI tune. Githae is asking Kenyans to support the Building Bridges Initiative report, which was officially launched at the Bomas of Kenya yesterday.
