The rich culture of the nine sub-tribes of the Mijikenda people, Waswahili, and Arabs, punctuated by folk songs, poems, and dances dominated the Mashujaa Day celebrations in Kwale.
The rhythm of the festival started in a slow pace with Coast celebrated gospel singer Zablon Ndale's new hit song "Mimi Ni Mzabibu", but hit a crescendo with the Sengenya dancers by Wanasengeny Kiboko.
