Popular gospel musician Ben Githae does not regret supporting Azimio la Umoja One Kenya Coalition Party in the run up to the August 9 General Elections, despite the ridicule he faced, he says.

He was insulted by many of his kinsmen for that decision “but I was in it for a mission to benefit our musicians,” he said on Monday, adding that the relationship enabled musicians to negotiate for better benefits from Skiza Tunes.
