There is a major end-of-year treat lined up for Kenyan rhumba fans during the Lokole Festival that will feature top Congolese crooner Ferre Gola. During the Stade de Martyrs show, Ferre featured Victoria Kimani, the US-born singer of Kenyan origin, with whom he released the duet titled “Tucheze”. According to the organisers of the Lokole Festival, the intention was to have an exclusive rhumba VIP show. Arguably one of the most popular ballad singers of the neo-generation Congolese rhumba style, Ferre has in the recent past placed himself in the class of the most sought-after vocalists on the Lingala music scene. According to promoter Jules Nsana, Ferre is expected to travel with a full band as he has done on prevIous tours.
