Mambo Afri-WATU!

Would you belive that it is only after over 100 episodes that AfriWetu will finally take a break before the end of the year! Well we didnt either.

Truth is, so much is happening behind the scences and in order to give these exciting ideas the best possible chance of launching well....it means something had to give, only for a short while! So dont panic!

Thank you for always being the best ever listeners, we shall be back on the airwaves for S7 in the coming year, and you will LOVE it Afri-WATU, promise!

As always a huge thank you to Big City Studio, who make even five mins of AfriWetu sound EPIC! And has been the best production hands down!

Until next time

Mubarikiwe!

Its been an age right!

Well Afri-WATU we are back with the final part of the amazing Kanem-Bornu Empire.

This has been an EPIC journey, and to give it the respect its due...it had to take a few more moments in the background just for you...yes?

So here we are, I hope you enjoy the show as much as I did working on it and with the amazing production from Big City Studios as ALWAYS making it a dope ride in the past.

We shall be back with a short announcement in a couple of weeks before AfriWetu goes for a short break for a few months - so much cooking over the many pots going on in the background - good things are coming your way!

For now, enjoy the show!

Until Next Time

Mubarikiwe!

Afri-WATU we are back to the Kanem-Bornu Empire - Part 2!

This Empire had everything, and each time as I said last time, there is more and more and more to unearth....I encourage you all to really follow the paths, and get lost in the detail and wonder of these ancestors.

As usual a HUGE thank you to Big City Studios for bringing the stories to life with dope production.

Until nest time

Mubarikiwe!

Afri-WATU!

So excited to share with you the first part of one of the most well known Empires in the world, the Kanem-Bornu Empire!

This was a mighty task to research and so very worth it, it is one of those civilisations you think you know, and then just like that, another deeper layer is uncovered. Even after alllllllll the material out there, it still feels like there is so much unsaid! We would love to hear from the descendants their stories of their ancestors, check in with us!

Thank you as always to Big City Studios! Always delivering the BEST production!

Until next time

Mubarikiwe!

Afri-WATU!

Welcome to the conclusion of the Kasanje Kingdom!

We get to meet the rulers and the actual Imbangala military society. It was a great journey learning about this kingdom and bringing them to life for you all.

As usual a huge thank you to Big City Studios for making this sound so good and correcting my sound errors!

Until next time

Mubarikiwe!

Afri-WATU!

Welcome to the first of our African Ancestor Kingdoms of S6! The Kasanje Kingdom!

We start with a powerful and right in your face civilisation whose infamy and reputation precedes them.

The Imbangala (sometimes also known as Jaga) were FIERCE and they used all the tools in their control and power to subdue their enemies and those unlucky enough to cross their path.

As usual a huge thank you to Big City Studios for correcting all my dodgy mic sound...you truly work wonders to create a whole new world.

Until next time

Mubarikiwe!

HABARI ZENU AFRI-WATU!

It's been ages since we were back on the air, and AfriWetu ti really excited to kick of S6 with a special interview had with Daniel Story of the American History Association - yep our Ancestors are truly global.

I wanted to thank you all for coming back, today marks 6 years to the month that AfriWetu first came onto the airwaves, and it is quite something, I still pinch myself!

Enough about me, you will hear more from me in this interview, and after that we go right back to where we love....meeting the Ancestors and this year with a few extra special episodes when we delve into new civilisations and themes! Its all part of the plan....

Sit back and enjoy,

Until next time

Mubarikiwe!

It's the WRAP UP SHOW for S5 AFRI-WATU!

How dope is it that we are here at the end of the fifth year, that we have had listening to stories of our African Ancestors!

So here is my thank you to you all for your support, we shall be back next year for more, and we shall find you right here....yes?

The journeys to our past are always such a joy, wonder, amazing and so much more.

The work put in by Big City Studio productions, our social media guru in the background, and our awesome Guest Narrators is why AfriWetu is what it is...it takes our village.

Thank you my people!

As always though, my biggest ASANTE is to you our listeners for tuning in!

Until next year!

Mubarikiwe!!!
