Since his death in 2019, the Alliance Francaise in Nairobi hosts hundreds of people for the annual Ayub Ogada tribute concert. The past two concerts have attracted big Nyatiti players and this year was not different.
This year’s concert was held on March 2, and being the third edition, Makadem, Ogada’s student, paid tribute to the regional legend by playing his music. Other Nyatiti performers included Judith Bwire, Atisana, Gabriel Wuod Akonya and the youngest Nyatiti player Kent Mugenda Ja Siaya as well as Olith Ratego.
