Rahi Bains East African Legend
Most of my contemporaries grew up in East Africa with the voice of Rahi Bains. He was also a teacher at Technical High School where he taught some of my friends. I was envious that they knew him in person whereas I only was privy to his singing on Voice of Kenya Radio Station. Little did I know in those days that I would find out more information from him by personal association one day. He was legendary singer in East Africa who whose work was recognised in UK.
In recognition of his extraordinary singing talent he has been given following awards:
1 Mohd. Rafi award as an Honour for Creative Work in Music by The Guru
Nanak Universal Sewa, U.K.
2 The Osterley Lions Club, London, the Melvin Jones Fellow
Award for Dedicated Humanitarian Services.
3 Award for Services to Punjabi Culture by “The Punjabi Circle International”
4 MTM Special Recognition Award for outstanding contribution to community through his musical talent.
