Rose Muhando, the first gospel artist in East Africa to reach 1M YouTube subscribers

By Robert Mutasi

Rose Muhando, the queen of gospel music in the East African region for two decades has now become the first artist in this region to reach one million subscribers on her YouTube channel.

What is interesting and shows its uniqueness is that Muhando has reached one million subscribers just four years after starting the channel.

The mother is playing more and more with her Secret Agenda album that she released seven months ago, the Secret Agenda song has so far garnered 13 million views.

Rose Muhando is the first gospel artist ever to appear in different generations if she started before the advent of digital music download networks and until now she is increasingly giving guidance to artists of the digital generation.

It will be remembered that about 4 years ago, Muhando suffered one of the biggest tragedy that brought her to Kenya and found herself in the church of pastor James Ng'ang'a.

At that time, Muhando seemed to be very sick until she stabbed her hand and many people said that she had entered into satanic religions.

After Ng'ang'a prayed for her in his church, the video went viral, being described by some as a joke, but Muhando later came to thank the controversial pastor for what she said saved her life.

In her words, Muhando said that the video of pastor Ng'ang'a being prayed for made many people know that she has problems and many came forward to stand with her in various ways.

It was said that the former president of Kenya at that time, Uhuru Kenyatta, showed her great generosity by giving her medical help until she recovered and returned to Tanzania to resume gospel singing.

She composed a song praising Kenyatta and the Kenyan nation in general for the kindness and love they showed her during the time she was isolated from everyone around her.
