The President has in the past confessed his love for reggae music.
In 2011, during an interview with Churchill Show host Daniel Ndambuki, the President said, “I’m stuck in a certain age, my favourite musicians are UB40, Bob Marley and Gregory Isaacs.”

Raila was also not left behind as he joined the revellers to show the world that music has no boundaries.
At some point, he is seen on stage dancing to the tune of Lucky Dube’s hit “Nobody Can Stop Reggae”, a song that Raila and pro-handshake MPs have used as their “anthem” during their recent Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) consultative meetings in Mombasa and Kitui.
