The Wakenya Pamoja video and song continues to get rave reviews from Kenyans and people worldwide. The video has already received over 15,000 views within 3 weeks on YouTube and has been on the top 3 videos in the 30,000 strong Kenya Network on Facebook. The song was written and recorded by award-winning producer Robert "R-Kay" Kamanzi at his Moja Entertainment studios and the video was shot and edited by Sakata Music. It features dozens of Kenyan Artistes and pastors. We have received numerous compliments on the video (and we duely pass them on to Wakenya Pamoja) and a request for airplay from a big radio station in South Africa as well as requests for an English translation from viewers in Japan! In the video, we incorrectly named Eunice Njeri as "Wanja" (sorry Eunice) whereas Jay Njoroge (the guy who starts singing after the rap) was not named. We appeal to the Kenyan people for calm and restraint and as Zaidi ya Mziki's Lena ably puts it, "Hata kama tutazozana, haimanishi tunakosana!" (Even if we don't agree, it doesn't mean we won't get along). Download the video and the mp3 for only $5.99 and all proceeds go to Wakenya Pamoja to help victims of the post-election violence.
