Musicians from Luo Nyanza have for a very long time been composing songs as a demonstration of their love for people.
In their endeavour to compose music, politicians from Luo Nyanza have been the biggest beneficiaries.
Here are the Nyanza politicians whose names have featured in most songs:
1.Raila Odinga
The former Prime Minister is the most celebrated politician in the Luo Nyanza region and ranked among the biggest political figures in Kenya and Africa.
In Nyanza, his previous presidential bids have seen many songs composed and released in his favour.
Some of them include Raila by Onyi Papa Jey, NASA by Onyi Jalamo, Agwambo by Otieno Small, Raila Amollo by Musa Juma, Raila Jakom by Lady Maureen and Raila Agwambo Joshua by Tony Nyandundo.
2. Cyprian Awiti
The Homa Bay Governor is also a beneficiary of the creativity of Luo musicians.
Some of the songs mentioning him include Malomalo Part 2 by Aluoch Jamaranda, Awiti Cyprian by Oginga Wuod Awasi, Awiti Cyprian by Grace Nyakindu and Cyprian Awiti by Tony Nyandundo.
3. Okoth Obado
The embattled Migori Governor has not been at the best position lately, ending up in detention twice in the last three months.
However, he remains one of the most celebrated leaders back in Nyanza and has as well been recognised by some Luo musicians.
His songs include Obado Sirkal Matiyo (Obado the working government) by Ouma Atula, Gavana Okoth Obado by Onyi Jalamo and Obado Tano Tena by Amiso Thwango.
