Use national music festival to nurture youth talent 

What you need to know:

  • The Kenya National Music Festival had been silenced by the Covid-19 pandemic that broke out in March 2020.
  • It is also a welcome break from the tense election campaign period, which culminated in the August 9 General Election, and the ushering in of the next five years of President William Ruto’s Kenya Kwanza Alliance administration.
  • The fete begins today at four different schools, after which the winners will stage a state concert on September 24 at the Kisumu State Lodge.


A show of immense fun for students, teachers and the general public is coming back after a two-year absence.

This is the Kenya National Music Festival, which had been silenced by the Covid-19 pandemic that broke out in March 2020.
