Introducing the participant from the Republic of Kenya
12-year-old singer Niabiya Siekei became the representative of Kenya at the contest "Our Generation". In the final of the project, the girl will perform the author's song Jiamini, which means "Believe in yourself" in Swahili.
The singer wrote the contest song together with her good friend Ivione, who is also fond of music. Niabia would like her song to inspire children to believe in their dreams and work hard to achieve them.
The girl loves singing very much and hopes that it will become her profession. She admits that she is looking forward to traveling the world through music, and really wants to perform on big stages. The contestant likes soulful pop music, fun disco beats and indie songs, both old and new, for example, Europapa (Joost), Mamma Mia (ABBA), Suzanna (Sauti Sol), I Have Nothing (Whitney Houston) and Next Exit (Vacations).
In her free time, Naibia likes to watch music videos, especially Broadway shows, as well as funny videos on social networks where they sing and dance. The girl also likes to read books, watch movies and spend time with her four—legged friends - dogs Cookie, Charlie, Kaitu and Chester.
