President Uhuru Kenyatta is still keeping tabs with the local music industry.
On Sunday, he showed some love for Sauti Sol through his official Twitter handle.
I have just cast my vote for @SautiSol as the best African act. I hope you’ve all cast your votes too. Best wishes #mtvema #nominatesautisol

MTV nominated 4 artists across Africa, namely: Davido (Nigeria), Goldfish(South Africa), Diamond (Tanzania) and Toofan (Togo). They then gave fans the opportunity to nominate a fifth artist on Twitter.
All you had to do was include two hashtags in your tweet, #MTVEMA and #Nominate(insert artist).
6 choices were provided, and this is where Sauti Sol came in.
