The governor encouraged the singer to perform wholeheartedly, entertain his fans, and represent the county with pride.

“There are many from Nyandarua who live in the United States. There is a diaspora team there led by Dr Shiuri, and I will also let you know where he stays so you can connect with him,” the governor expressed.

Governor Badilisha further prayed for Jose’s safety, success, and a peaceful experience throughout the tour, adding that he hopes the musician will be well supported by fans abroad.

“Greet them all, sing very well for them, and may God bless you. May He grant you a peaceful and enjoyable time as you perform and entertain them. And do not come back empty-handed; let them bless you as well,” the governor added.

The US tour will see Jose team up with Mugithi songstress Kareh B for performances across several states.

The collaboration is expected to bring together fans of Kikuyu music in the diaspora for a series of energetic shows.
