This highly underrated radio personality single handedly( i stand to be corrected) pioneered the reggae culture in Kenya. I know some kauzi's(bad boys/sisters) of yesteryears might argue that Papa Lefty, sister lucy, papa bingy should also be recognized, but Jeff in his own unique way taught Kenyans reggae music. He is still around/alive and i have deemed it fit to recognize this unsung Kenyan hero while he is still alive through a wazua thread. Jeff mimi kama @fyatu nakutambua. Wewe ni shujaa wa Kenya. Ala, I knew Jeff for Yours For The Asking, Late Date & Sundowner. I didn't know him for reggae, but again, I was not an ardent reggae fan only Jerusalem, Alpha Blondy. That song used to play 10 times a day. The guy was good in impersonification, you would not tell he was the same guy. He was so good in the reggae show everyone thought he was a nutty dread..kumbe guy was bald! i.am.back!!!!

I also used to think that Jeff was the dreadlocked man in Kenya only to be told "huyo jamaa hunyoa jordo" Politics is just things to keep the people divided and foolish and put your trust in men and none of them can do nothing for you...

He is still around/alive and i have deemed it fit to recognize this unsung Kenyan hero while he is still alive through a wazua thread. Jeff mimi kama @fyatu nakutambua. Wewe ni shujaa wa Kenya. Thursdays 8-9am and a repeat on Monday 2-3pm. Jeff was king. He once made a mistake of stopping in Karatina town around 1995. There was a stampede as everyone was trying to get a glimpse of the man himself. Cops had to help him get in his car. Usisahau papa Charlie. King lion sounds. Everyone had a cassette tape of these guys. Currently reggae has gone mainstream. Even upmarket pubs play reggae music. I haven't managed to outgrow reggae. Every weekday evening am on either ghetto radio or hot 96. Saturday it's milele FM. On YouTube demakufu, kalonje and DJ lyta have amazing roots mixes. In his small way, Jeff started a music revolution that will outlive him many years to come. Reggae music is the only genre that makes as good music now as it did back then. It's also really grown especially here in kenya thanks to the likes of Jeff Mwangize. He never appears on TV! Reggae has staying power. You mean ras Mwangize Dumb money becomes dumb only when it listens to smart money

1-John Karani
2-Ali salimanga
3-Elina chiveka
4-Elizabeth Obege
Ali salimanga was notorious for keeping listeners hanging on whether a goal had been scored during radio football broadcasts repeating MSIKILIZAJI 20 times before letting us know if there was a score.
Also reading the salaams on idhaa ya taifa with shabiks like Lama bin Lama, Sura mbaya kiango Momanyi.
Okay I have stopped.
5. Charles Omuga Kabisae* Omuga kabisae sounded like one tired fella.Muthoni Bwika ni presenter wa juzi If Obiero did it, Who Am I?

Katerega kwake Sekatawa..hatari .hatari..Bobby Ogolla anaondoa. I think the Line up that day was: 1.Mahmoud Abbas 2.Hussein Kheri 3.Bassanga 4.Bobby 5.Mulira 6.Ingutia 7.Mahila 8.Sam Taabu 9.Ayoyi 10.Jacaranda 11. Onyango "Jogoo' Truth forever on the scaffold
