Rose Muhando stuns Kamulu crowd with powerful renditions of Kikuyu, Kamba hits
By Steve Ireri, August 22, 2026Tanzanian gospel singer Rose Muhando left attendees at a crusade in Kamulu elated and cheering after delivering a powerful worship performance in fluent Kikuyu.
The crusade, organised by Apostle Francis Musili, entered its third day on Saturday, August 22, 2026, when Muhando took to the stage and treated the crowd to a spirited session featuring popular local gospel songs.
In a video shared on TikTok by Around The Globe Ministry (ATG) founder pastor Musili, Muhando is seen dancing barefoot on stage as she moved from one end of the platform to the other while leading the worshippers.
She sang the popular Kikuyu gospel hit ‘Jesu Wimwoyo’ word for word, with the elated crowd responding with equal enthusiasm as the crusade culminated in an intense intercessory session.
Muhando then switched from Kikuyu to Kamba, leading the worshippers in another popular gospel song, ‘Nindakwatie Tata’, further exciting the crowd.
Her seamless transition between the local languages appeared to surprise and delight attendees, who continued singing along as she demonstrated her familiarity with popular Kenyan gospel music.
The crowd is seen singing loudly, raising their hands and cheering as the veteran gospel singer continued with the performance, with some worshippers urging her to keep going.
The spirited session became one of the highlights of the third day of the crusade, which was being held at the Kamulu Shopping Centre stage.
The crusade started at 4 pm and ran until 7 pm, bringing together several gospel ministers for the evening programme.
Other gospel artistes who ministered during the event included singer Fenny Kerubo, who was among the key ministers featured during the crusade.
Lessons from Australia
The crusade came only days after Muhando said she observed that Africans living in Australia appeared to have a stronger love for God than most white people she encountered during her weeks-long gospel tour in the country.
The ‘Nibebe’ hitmaker made the remarks on Thursday, July 30, 2026, after returning to Tanzania from Australia, where she spent several weeks holding gospel concerts and ministering in various churches.
She, however, said she noticed a difference in the level of devotion to Christianity, claiming that Tanzanians have a deep love for God while the people she encountered in Australia did not demonstrate the same level of devotion.
“Here we love God so much, and I have also learnt that there they love God but not so much. Maybe only Africans who are there are the ones who love God as much,” she said.
Muhando said she believed Africans living in Australia were among those who maintained a strong love for God, adding that she also encountered some white people who were deeply devoted to their faith.
“Yeah, and a few whites,” she added.
According to Muhando, her journey went well, and she expressed gratitude for completing her tour without incident.
She recalled leaving Tanzania on June 29 before returning home on Thursday, July 30, 2026, marking the end of several weeks of gospel performances and church ministrations in Australia.
“My journey was all good and I thank God. I left Tanzania on the 29th of last month, which was June, and today I have returned home. I have returned safely, and all I can say is all thanks to God,” she said.
