"Najivunia Kuwa Mkenya": Israel-Born Musician Gilad Millo Acquires Kenyan Citizenship

Israel-born singer Gilad Millo has finally obtained Kenyan citizenship.

The ' Sema Milele' hitmaker broke the news through social media on Tuesday, saying he applied for Kenyan citizenship six years ago.

“It has been 21 years since I first came to Kenya and 6 years since I applied for my Kenyan Citizenship 🇰🇪 Now it is finally official NAJIVUNIA KUWA MKENYA,” he posted on Twitter.

Gilad, a former deputy head of mission at the Israeli Embassy in Kenya, came to the country 21 years ago as a diplomat and identifies himself as a Kenyan. 

The 50-year-old is one of the hottest pop stars in Kenya with several songs to his name including Sema Milele, Unajua, Mapenzi, Salama, One Wish, Rangi Ya Bahari, Nairobi Yangu and Nahisi Upo.

Besides music, Gilad has ventured in agriculture, focusing on garlic farming. He is one of directors of Ole Raha Limited which seeks to develop the garlic sector in Kenya, focusing on good garlic farming practices, quality seed germination and farmer contract partnerships.

Jews will always be Jews with Jewish characteristics, wherever they are: racist, selfish, isolationists, superior attitudes, industrialists, Judaic, deceptive, full of suspicion and hate. In New York state, they live on their own zip codes, where they have their own school, hospital, college and university, convenience stores, funeral homes, independent and dependent retirement communities, stadium etc. Its only Jewish people or those of Jewish descent who can attend them. In Baltimore county, Pikesville and parts of Randastown are occupied and owned by them. For instance, North Oaks retirement community and Rabbi college in Pikesville is owned by Jews. After working for them for so many years, I can, without doubt of contradiction, attest to that. Along Wilson lane, where all these facilities are located, you cant walk around there, worse so, if you are a black like Mjuaji. And while they would shower Mjuaji with awards and accolades time and again, they would talk behind my back calling me African boy with the deepest ascent in America. That was then, this is now. Never will work for them again.

Ndugu mjuaji, you must let that past go, but always remember it! I have traveled that same road before! I understand your point and bitterness! The bitterness part is not worth it! Try to see good in your past experiences (good or bad) to freely enjoy life!

Am humbled Shuru, by your sound advice. But can you ALSO advice "Original-Mjuaji" not to use my "Mjuaji" brand name on Mwakilishi or elsewhere, because its patented? Lest I make easy, money kill? Am serious.
