Gospel singer, Israel Mbonyi, has announced to the people of Tanzania that he is going to perform live with them.
Using the social media he uses, including Instagram, on Saturday, October 5, 2024, Israel Mbonyi announced that there is not even a month in it if you count the days that are missing for him to come to see the people of Tanzania who love him unconditionally.
He said: “You called, we answered and we are coming….From November 2nd to 3rd we will be live in Dar es Salaam.” According to him, people living in Tanzania have been asking him to try to perform there at least once.
When he performed in Rwanda in the year 2023 at the end of it, in a show called Icyambu Live Concert and filled BK Arena, the news spread everywhere, people living in Tanzania started writing to him on his social medias asking him to perform with them.
It got even stronger when he performed in Kenya. Those in Tanzania kept on writing to him and ask: “When will you be here? When will you visit us?”
As soon as he announced it, some asked about the ticket prices, but the one who answered them was not Israel Mbonyi. In response he said: Tickets to enter the concert called "Wakati wa Mungu" (God’s Time) entry fees are: (Mlimani City) VVVIP is 500,000 Tanzanian shillings, VVIP is 300,000 Tanzanian shillings, VIP is Tanzanian shillings 100 thousand. For regular positions (Leaders Clubs) it is 20 thousand and 50 thousand in VIP.
Israel Mbonyi began to be loved by those in Swahili-speaking countries after he started singing in that language. He made a song called Nina Siri in the year 2023 which is in Swahili, luckily became very popular and brought him across the borders of Rwanda where he found himself loved by those in Tanzania and Kenya.
After that he published Nita Amini which is also popular, he continued with Sikiliza, Yanitosha and others which he changed from Kinyarwanda and interpreted into Swahili so that even those who do not speak Kinyarwanda who loved him could hear the Gospel in them. These include Malengo Ya Mungu (Nzi Ibyo Nibwira), Amenisaheme (Yankuyeho Urubanza) and Kaa Nami (Tugumane).
He is going to perform in Tanzania after touring countries including Burundi where he performed in Bujumbura in early 2023, Kenya in August 2024 and Uganda where he performed in Kampala and Mbarara in August 2024.
Apart from these concerts that tour countries in the East African region, Israel Mbonyi plans to perform in Mozambique and South Africa.
