“OTONGLO BOY” RETURNS

#DRAMAFEST

Curtains open, lights on, action! That has been the daily call for many a young thespian for the last three months as schools and colleges competed for honors on stage under the theme, “Celebrating Our Diversity For national unity.”

And  this week, inside a totally packed auditorium, Highway Secondary School’s Daniel Owira made his long –awaited comeback after he stole the show last year with his narrative “Otonglo Time;” directed by Clifford Nyakwar Dani.

He did not disappoint at all, to the cheers of the crowd. Booking another performance date before the president once again for the second year consecutively, owira stole the show this time round with a narrative calling for Zero Tolerance towards drugs and substance abuse- directed by Apondi Situnya.

Owira’s performance amongst the over 10,000 participants, have aroused the sleepy town to drum beats, choral reverberations, emotional outpouring, laughter and high spirited dance steps.

Nyeri plays host to the annual Kenya Schools and Colleges Drama Festival.
