Musician B flow Says he’s happy that General Kanene is out of jail. This was following after president Lungu Pardoned Kanene . Below is what B flow wrote on his Facebook page:
“6 months ago, my boss at Komboni radio suggested something to me. She asked if I could visit General Kanene at the Prison and talk to him about a topic that I love so much (Women empowerment). I could not say no because firstly he’s my friend, and secondly because I thought it was a GREAT idea and I care about the issue involved.
So I linked up with Kanene who was accompanied by some people from the Prisons Service, and we had a long conversation. I shared with Kanene some information which I’ve been learning through my work with the ministry of Gender and OXFAM placing my focus on a law called the Anti-Gender Based Violence Act. Whilst I was explaining, Kanene was enjoying the English words I was using, so he began to laugh and said “iwe ka B Flow utaya ntawi, tiye tikwapule chi nyimbo”(B Flow you’re wasting time, let’s record a song about the ANTI-GBV Act). So as usual JERRY FINGERZ “murdered” the beat and we put our discussion on a song(some of you might have heard it). From that day, I closely watched Kanene’s moves and how well he launched his in-prison advocacy.
In my opinion his experience has made him reflect and do what an artist is supposed to do (to use music as a tool for social change).
Don’t judge me, but I think Kanene has learned his lesson(that’s my prayer at least).
To my surprise, yesterday in the morning I was making a powerpoint presentation in New York at Wagner College, and it was about Kanene(as you can see behind me in the picture) as if I knew he is now a free man. I was explaining to my YALI fellows about the new music and in-prison advocacy that Kanene has been doing lately. I was so shocked to learn that the same morning he had just been pardoned. Such a coincidence right? I felt like God told me to talk about Kanene for a reason. I hope someone has learned something from Kanene’s situations. Congratulations Clifford Kanene Dimba!!! I know it’s good to attain freedom, but I know you’ve also just been freed two days after the death of your long time friend/personal DJ Khumalo Zidic (MHSRIP). For me, Jerry Fingerz must be commende”
