Each Kenyan has a way they define their Kenyaness. We each have our very own way we think Kenya should be seen. One would think that that is not a problem. But it is.

We have embraced Kenyaness by ironically going against their fellow Kenyans. We have come to believe that our view about Kenya is the best and more supreme than others. We selfishly have different look of the same. This has made Kenyans tear into each other at the smallest difference.

As we mark 50 years, each Kenyan has his thought as to how Kenya should mark 50 years of independence. Heartstrings Entertainment will hilariously tell of the story of these Kenyans who jealously are commemorating Kenya in 50 in their own way. They have the strangest way of doing it.

Some think that their tribe represents Kenyaness. Some think that their gender or their religion, class, colour, position should represent Kenyan. There will be a whole lot of laughter when all fight for what they stand for ironically unaware they are clashing for the same thing.

The big question is “Are You Half a Kenyan or A Full Non-Kenyan? If Kenya was an employer and you were to reapply for a job to be a Kenyan, would Kenya employ you?
