On 2018-10-12, President Uhuru Kenyatta attended the burial of Benga legend Joseph Kamaru in Murang’a, where he shared a brief moment with Celina, the late musician’s sister.
The archive material does not provide a full transcript of what was said, but it shows the two interacting during the funeral ceremony as mourners gathered to lay Kamaru to rest.
Kamaru’s burial drew attention because of his long-standing place in Kenyan music and the presence of the Head of State at the event. The moment involving Uhuru and Celina became one of the notable scenes from the send-off in Murang’a.
