Legendary Lingala Musician Pleads to Kenyans In A New Song

In anticipation of next year’s General Elections,  legendary Lingala musician and one of the most revered artistes in the region Samba Mapangala has released a new song for the upcoming polls.

Dubbed “Chagua Chagua” the song encourages people to choose their leaders wisely and vote in peace. Mapangala reminds Kenyans that a peaceful country will succeed economically in the future to the benefit of all, and can set an example for other African nations to follow.

Though originally composed with Kenya in mind, “Chagua Chagua” eventually has universal implications for all nations facing the challenge of democratic elections. Check out the video below uniquely created by cartoonist Maddo (Paul Kelemba).
