In the elections gone by, politicians have used all measures possible to get votes from the youth. The youth are targeted because they are the majority voters and it goes without saying that music is food to their soul. In 2002 Gidi Gidi Maji Maji’s track unbwogable was extensively used in campaigning for President Kibaki
When Kibaki came back in 2007 to seek for votes and another term in office he used the self proclaimed king of rap Nonini and his hit track we love to party was changed to we love Kibaki.
We have two presidential aspirants who have been seen hanging out with musicians like Prime Minister Raila Odinga has been having secret meetings with several artistes in the past few months.
Yesterday The National Alliance (TNA) party led by Deputy Prime Minister Uhuru Kenyatta had a special visit from P-Unit and posed for a photo with TNA secretary General Johnson Sakaja and Blackstar entertainment’s Machel Waikenda.
Rumor has it P-Unit may sing the TNA anthem which will be used during the campaign period.
