Fundi Konde singing Ajali Haikingiki.

From Enchanted Landscapes:

Fundi Konde was one of the early stars of East African music during the post-war, pre-independence era when Kenyan musicians were heard throughout Africa on radio and on readily-available 78rpm discs. In the 1950s Nairobi became a regional centre for the burgeoning music business and Konde began a career as a troubadour, composer and music all-rounder which lasted for more than 50 years.
