Meet Nyabiya Syekei, a talented 12-year-old singer and actor from Nairobi, Kenya, who is making her official music debut with the track, "Jiamini".
Nyabiya will perform this song at the highly anticipated "Our Generation 2024", an international children’s song competition set to take place in Kazan, Russia, from October 5th, 2024.
Nyabiya Syekei is Kenya’s first and only representative at this year’s edition of the competition, which brings together children from over 10 countries worldwide.
"Jiamini," meaning "Believe in Yourself" in Swahili, encourages children to have faith in their dreams and work hard to achieve them. It’s a fitting anthem for a competition designed to celebrate the voices of the next generation.
