A video of Kenyans singing and worshipping during a church session in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, has touched many people.

Kenyans sing Kikuyu songs

The clip shared by @shaireenannn showed Kenyans singing a popular Kikuyu gospel medley while praising, jumping, and dancing joyfully.

Some Kenyans working in the Gulf country could not join the church session as they are on contract, and getting out on such days may be difficult for them.

Many opined that one is only able to do this if one is a Kemboi, which means that they ran away from their first jobs inside people's homes and now work outside while living independently.

Looking at the video, many wondered why there were only women in the church. They were told that men were present and loved to sit at the back because it got very full.

Jacqueywamboi said: "This can only happen in Riyadh."

Her. majesty. 1977said: "This can only happen with Kembois, Waiguru can't allow this."

Although @shaireenannn didn't share the venue of the next meeting, she intimated that they would meet again on June 26.
