The song “Nena Bwana” by Kwaya ya Mt. Josephine Bakhita is a captivating piece of music that embodies the spirit and devotion of the choir dedicated to St. Josephine Bakhita. St. Josephine Bakhita herself has a remarkable story, born around 1869 in Darfur, Sudan, into a prosperous family until she was kidnapped by Arab slave traders. She endured a harrowing journey through slavery, being bought and sold multiple times, which led her to forget her birth name.

Bakhita, meaning “fortunate” in Arabic, was a name given to her during her captivity. Her story is one of resilience and faith, as she found solace in the Roman Catholic Church after being brought to Italy, where she was eventually declared free due to the country’s laws against slavery. Her canonization as a saint by the Roman Catholic Church in 2000 recognized her extraordinary faith and her patronage of Sudan and victims of human trafficking.
