[Drfusebox]

2:22<-Pause here for Nairobery circa 1991

3:43<-Pause here for OOH LALA

[yoshiotamura]

anyone know whats the name of that crew

[Drfusebox]

@yoshiotamura They werent a crew as such.

The song was a one hit wonder designed to convey a public awareness message to the Kenyan population.

When I was about 5-6, my folks used to take us to watch plays by a co. called Mbalamwezi players. I recall most of this crew from there, including Jimmy Gathu.

That was circa 1989' - 1990'.

All these folks are now in their very late 30s & early 40s (Yes EVEN the 3 beautiful wiminz)

[ckangongoi]

Lol....Jimmy Gathu

I have seen this for the first time. Can the older folks please shed some light on when this song was done, who were the other people in the video apart from Jimmy Gathu, na wanafanya nini siku hizi?
