Ruto Grooves to Kasongo as Kenya Welcomes 2025

President William Ruto had a fun time dancing to the song "Kasongo" on New Year's Eve. He was at the Kisii State Lodge with his wife, Rachel, and other leaders. They were all laughing and having a good time.

"Kasongo" is an old song that has become popular again in Kenya. People on social media are using it to talk about politics funnily. The song is actually about a woman who wants her husband to come home.

The song was made by a band called Super Mazembe a long time ago. They came from the Democratic Republic of Congo. In 1974, they moved to Nairobi and changed their name. They had many other hit songs.

The story behind "Kasongo" is interesting. The band members went to visit their friend Kasongo at his house. When they got there, Kasongo's wife said she hadn't seen him in days. The band decided to write Kasongo a song. They wanted to tell him to come home because his wife missed him. They wrote the song right in Kasongo's living room. Later, they recorded it, and it became very popular.

It's nice to see President Ruto having fun and dancing with everyone. "Kasongo" has a special meaning for many Kenyans. It reminds them of good times in the past and shows how music can bring people together, even in politics.
