Renowned artist Nsabimana Léonard, famous for his hit song “Ndandambara,” performed for hundreds at the 'Gen-Z Comedy' show, an event attended by the Minister of Youth and Culture, Dr. Utumatwishima Jean Nepo Abdallah.

This special comedy show was held in anticipation of the upcoming elections scheduled for Monday, July 15, 2024. The event featured songs and comedy skits that focused on encouraging voter participation in both the Presidential and Parliamentary elections.

Comedians Dr Nsabi, Killaman, Isacal, Pilote, Rumi, Umushumba, Pirate, and Cardinal entertained the audience with various topics, leaving everyone in stitches. This performance followed days of preparation, making the night a memorable one.

It was Léonard's first performance at a Gen-Z Comedy event. Speaking to InyaRwanda, he expressed his excitement and viewed this invitation as a sign that his music has transcended regional boundaries. 

“Being invited to perform at ‘Gen-Z Comedy’ shows that ‘Ndandambara’ has made me a well-known artist across Rwanda, no longer just a local musician,” he said. 

Although he was scheduled to perform three songs, limited time allowed him to sing only “Ndandambara yandera ubwoba,” which had the audience on their feet.

Performing in front of Minister Utumatwishima was particularly special for Léonard. “He is a true friend of artists, and many look up to him for his support,” he said. “As ‘Ndandambara,’ it was a great honor to perform in front of someone who genuinely supports the arts and to receive his encouragement firsthand.”
