By HILARY KIMUYU, @hilarykimuyuThe 14th edition of Koroga festival held at the Arboretum grounds over the weekend saw the young and old alike entertained in a great musical experience.
The event was headlined by legendary Cameroonian musician Sam Fan Thomas, South African DJ and record producer Oskido and Kenyan-based Gilad Millo and no one walked home disappointed.
Gilad opened the show with his well-known soulful ballads which everyone sang along, before he welcomed Dela to the stage to sing their latest duet Nakuahidi.
The song is a dedication to the fallen soldiers.
Speaking to Nairobi News after his performance, Gilad said, “Today I felt like I was at home because of the great energy that I felt.”
In between the main acts, the DJs had everyone on their feet with golden classics, with DJ Styles of Code Red rocking the crowd with his mixes.
Next on stage came Oscar Bonginkosi Mdlongwa, popularly known as Oskido, who also did not disappoint with his Kwaito hits.
The main act was none other than Sam Fan Thomas who had everyone on their feet with his acclaimed hit African Typic Collection.
His other hits Coupe de grace and Noa were also some of the best highlights of the evening.
