John Law affirmed that as much as Jamaican artists are willing to champion charitable activities in Africa not many stakeholders are willing to get on board.
“Manze unapata wasanii wa Jamaica wako willing sana kucome Africa mara mob Kenya kufanya charity work kwa sababu wameunda ganji mob kwa ma show za majuu lakini promoters wa huku hawako willing kufanya shugli ya charity au ambayo inaokolea mavijanaa” he stated partly.
However, he noted that the trend is slowly changing with Everton Blender’s visit being different.
Everton Blender has lined up a series of performances in Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu, Nakuru, Meru and Murang’a among others.
