I have had a pretty rough month and so have many other people, so while the temptation is to complain about things we should stop and double check what we are saying and who we are saying it to… so this is me rambling

Take 100 people in a room, tell people to walk around silently and ask them to stop and for each individual to choose two other people in the room (without them knowing) and try to make an equilateral triangle (equal sided triangle), people start moving… everyone is busy shuffling moving left and right trying to ensure that his triangle is equal, but with every move he forces another person to move who is trying to align with him or her who in return forces another to move… now, grab one person and tell them to walk outside and suddenly you have chaos… two people follow then four then 8 and the entire room is out in no time… because everybody has to maintain an equilateral triangle.

That is how connected we are, move one of us… hurt one of us.. intentionally or not, you will eventually hurt more people than you intended, 20 hotels close in Mombasa, 1000 plus people are out of jobs, farmer in Kitale cannot sell his produce to hotels in mombasa to pay school fees for his kids in Kisumu for the teacher to invest in his shop in machakos for your grandmother to have access to basic needs.

This country is taking a beating, the negative truths are there, we have insecurity, tribalism, road carnage, a government that is confusing, and an opposition that is being irresponsible, but we also have positive truths, we have better roads than we did a few years ago, better services in government, adjusting to devolution and seeing results…

As a people, we can focus on negative truths… we will get negative results or focus on positive truths and drive towards positive results ensure those hotels are open, make security our individual responsibility and just like the Americans say, I am an American… we can say, I am a Kenyan, because unless you have another place you can call home…. this burns it burns with you.

Remember the equilateral Triangle… and the role you are playing .. are you building or burning this country, what are your positive truths?

From a tender age he loved music but this only became evident when he joined the choir in Upper Hill High School. It was during his period in high school that he joined an acapella group which later grew into the recently concluded Afro fusion boy band, Aziza Muzik, which comprised of Maurice Muma, popular video director Enos Olik and himself. The popular boy band which was signed to Sub Sahara Records in July 2011 launched their first album “MWENYE NDOTO” produced by Kenya’s own Big Soul, in 2012.

While with Aziza Muzik, Sequiera has had the opportunity to share stages with the likes of Suzanna Owiyo, Eric Wainaina, Liquid Deep, Sauti Sol, Anto Neo Soul among others. Sequiera who is also known for connecting with his audience in terms of lyrics, vocal prowess as well as his unforgettable enthusiastic live performances, has now stepped into the lime light as a solo artiste.
