about
Name: George Chunga
Country Representing: Kenya
My greatest inspiration was the fact that this is a continental content. Having participated in festivals and contests within my country only, this was an epic moment to join other storytellers drawn from different countries to tell my story and experience others’ renditions. The fact this this contest was about telling MY story was also a great inspiration. In my storytelling journey, I have always told other people’s stories but this contest presented an opportunity for me to tell a personal story
what does storytelling mean to you?
Storytelling is a life experience; it is the art of of using words and actions to reveal the elements and images of a story thus creating and encouraging the imagination of the listeners. It means sharing of experiences and information in an entertaining way, using key vocabulary, phrases, rhythm and structure.
I chose the story because it was a reminiscence of my encounter with fellow artists; it gave me an experience to learn and understand group dynamics. The conflict in the story, created in me a self declaration to enhance teamwork, cohesion and quest for equity justice and fairness.

It will take me a whole deca to write a book about you cause I have alot that I parsonally can’t express in comment section but what I know best is that in you is a full house of good personalities and teaching that youth’s deserve best,and anyother person,the best story teller,writter, father and a friend of the people,you deserve the best and am sure enough you gotta get this…
Chunga has been a great actor, a personal friend and a mentor to many ,may his good work reap big
Punglu pangla yo my super director. The story depicts what most artists in Africa go through. And that only the ones who are able to look past the unfairness in the society get standing when they’all get united.
I respect you even more after watching you perform. I was glued, the props, the flute playing and everything inbetween. It was also good learning about Kenya from a personal perspective and not ‘Google’. Thank you once again.
What more can a guy say Chunga wuod otiende may your legacy live to ratle and disrupt reality and lies that live among us by your stories…
Thank you for being the voice of the invisible, through your expressions, your songs and art. You make storytelling a part of healing, giving agency to many
Good work Wuod jamariek

Our story this…
A well told story as usual. Your ability to fuse music and sometimes dance in your stories is a testament of your raw talent. The ease by which you incorporate imagery, metaphor and suspense is an art very few have mastered. The time is right to share your talents with the rest of the world. Go for it big man!!
Your kind words have humbled me… My spirit has been warned up….
