Sauti Sol held their final show dubbed The Last Dance last weekend and out of the 15,000 people who attended the event at Uhuru Gardens are activist Boniface Mwangi’s children, who have not reached 18 years old.
Mwangi admitted that he sneaked the children into the event but he is aware that what he did was wrong and illegal.
The human activist said that he wanted his children to enjoy the moment and be happy because they are great fans of the popular boy band.
According to him, he was afraid that his children might never get chance to watch Sauti Sol perform when they are grown ups.
“So Sauti Sol it is their like last performance… their last dance. And my kids are going to become older in a couple of years and they might never get a chance to watch Sauti Sol perform live so to sneak them [we devised a plan]” the father of three said.
The plan was to disguise the children clothing so that they appeared older.
“Tuliwasneak. Tulivaa majackets, makofia na ma gumboots ikae kama wako 25 or 26,(so as to be able to sneak them we clothed them in heavy outfits and used jackets and hats to cover them up so that they would be able to pass as someone who is 25/26 years old,). So nilisneak watoi hapa ndani, nilifanya makosa hapo kidogo but wamejibamba (I sneaked my kids in here, I did something a little wrong there but they had so much fun),” he said.
After the Saturday November 4 performance, Sauti Sol proceeded on a break and only time will tell whether they will ever make a come back as a group.
Meanwhile, they will be concentrating on solo projects.
“Look at us, we are still brothers. We have been together for 20 years since we were 15 years old. We are going to discover ourselves individually so that we can be better versions of ourselves, so when we come back, we gonna give you 1,000 per cent. This is not goodbye, just a recess. Remember, we love you guys so much,” Chimano assured fans during the performance.
