Gospel singer Ben Githae was interviewed on Bonga na Jalas where he revealed that he has been saved for 26 years.

The 47-year-old gospel singer said he accepted Jesus Christ in the year 1994.

'Kuanguka kidogo kidogo imekua but I have remained strong. I have been in many scanDALs but I am focused. I am not going back to the devil. Everytime I tell God to fight for me. Everytime He comes. Mimi nikisimama na nyama na mwili nitashindwa but God has been fighting for me.'

During the interview with Jalango, Ben recounted how he started his music.

'About 20 years ago, I was working in my grandfather's poshomill but I used to compose songs there.

I took the songs to Kamaru in Nairobi and he came for me at the Poshomill. That is how I left Ushago. I have never gone back there. I recently celebrated 20 years in music.

My first popular song that opened a way for me was 'Mlianza na Roho'. The song made me so famous but nowadays watu wananichapa nayo.

Next there was another song, 'Onageria niekuremuo' which now was translated to be political. I was only singing to say that even if the devel tries, he will be defeated But since I released the song in 2007, people though I was singing for Raila who was competing with former president Kibaki.

Githae and Gatundu MP Moses Kuria were in the same school.

During the interview, Ben revealed that 'Firirinda' hit-maker Dick Munyonyi is his uncle.
