At first it seemed like a joker group, Negelected by many since the movie making journey began.As we speak, its not only the pride of Taita Taveta county but the pride of Kenya on the East African map.
who am I talking about? Ever heard of Wafuasi theatre Group?I bet no, that is if you come from outside Voi Or Taita Taveta County.
The financially struggling group with great potential to compete with "ogaaaaaaas" in African Movies or probably Hollywood or Bollywood have attracted not only the attention of the Governor of Taita Taveta but also of the Deputy president of Kenya Hon William Ruto!!!!
