Renowned Tanzanian gospel minister Christina Shusho, whose hit song Shusha Nyavu made her a household name in Kenya, has openly expressed her deep admiration for Kenyans. The artist recently shared the reasons behind her love for the country, citing their kindness and warm reception as standout qualities.
In an interview following her December concert in Kenya, Shusho highlighted her appreciation for the Kenyan people, saying, “Kenyans are kind, supportive, and deeply passionate about gospel music. I always feel at home here.” Her remarks were met with an outpouring of love from her Kenyan fans, who took to social media to celebrate her.
Shusho’s rise to prominence in Kenya began in 2023 when Shusha Nyavu became a gospel anthem. The song, inspired by Luke 5:4, recounts Jesus instructing Simon Peter to cast his nets into the sea after a night of fruitless fishing. The relatable and spiritually uplifting message resonated with many Kenyans, cementing her place in their hearts.
In the past year, Shusho has performed in multiple sold out concerts across Kenya, drawing thousands of worshippers to her events. Her ability to connect with the audience through her heartfelt lyrics and powerful performances has made her a favorite among Kenyan gospel enthusiasts.
“Kenya has embraced my ministry in ways I never imagined. The love and support I receive every time I come here is overwhelming,” Shusho added.
As Christina Shusho continues to spread her gospel message across East Africa, her bond with Kenya remains a testament to the power of music in uniting hearts and cultures.
