Mr ayub rest in peace ..you made nyatiti alive

[@CliveAkhahenda-wd9qn]

Nice video. I loved Ayub like a brother, and always liked this Japanese girl.

[@sarmadhakim2475]

I have had the pleasure of living with the Luo people of Kenya and they are an amazing bunch. If you are a non Luo or a foriegner and interested in Nyatiti I strongly suggest you check out Ogwang kokoth and Nyamungo Odindo as well. Amazing players of the Nyatiti with equally amazing personalities.

These are the things that should be taught in school

[@codingwithtosby]

Just to clarify on a misconception stated I this video, not all instruments were denied from women, Oyieko, ajawa, gara, were allowed but most specifically the nyatiti was not allowed due to women's form of dressing at that moment plus the respect given to the instrument. Looking at this video at 10:20 gives you a reason as to why the elders would deny women access to this instrument. Note that to play it one had to seat on a three legged stool

[@kennethotieno995]

I like the way elders would monitor a situation and declare a ban.

[@anyikenya8747]

i really want to learn nyatiti😍 im a young luo woman and ive always been interested since i was a teenager

Bring more of Kenyan traditional music

[@jeromelj1010]

Had it not been for a beautiful African American soul James McLeary I would not have known about Ayub Ogada and the beauty of the Nyatiti and it's an amazing sound. As I think of instruments from my culture like Umhrhube I need to pick another one up and start learning to play and connect to the spirituality of my people. I'm moved by the activism of the Kenyan women for claiming their space and learning the instrument. I'm really moved.

Good work here. I salute you musicians. Long-live a' Tradition 👫

[@hasmukhpatel4085]

Sad no one tried to save our lagend from the clutches of alcoholism.

[@CliveAkhahenda-wd9qn]

I did. I opened a studio with him in Dunholm, and we often got into fights, and I made sure he was healthy. When I left, you know the rest. I even saved his music that he thought was erased that was timeless. I was a computer wiz and could get any information deleted, so I did when Ayub asked. I did so much. Alcohol did not kill Ayub. I avoid many women, especially Kenyan women for a reason.
