Bazenga Ke: Busia’s Alpha Ojiambo on Boxing and Content

In Busia County, a young creative is quietly building his path through discipline, resilience, and community influence. Alpha Ojiambo, widely known as “Bazenga Ke,” is combining boxing and content creation while navigating the realities of youth life outside formal employment and higher education.

Early Life and Education

Ojiambo began his education at Mayenje Primary School before joining Buyosi Secondary School, both in Busia County. After completing secondary school, he did not transition to college and says he is not currently planning to.

Building a Creative Voice

His journey into content creation started from a personal place. Ojiambo says he uses his platform to motivate himself and other young people dealing with rejection, disappointment, and heartbreak.

“I’m motivating myself and fellow youths after rejection and discouragement.”

Despite facing criticism from some who do not support his content, he has continued to create, using basic equipment such as a ring light, camera, and microphone.

He adds that support in terms of equipment and exposure would significantly help him grow his work.

Training and Passion for AV

Beyond content creation, Ojiambo has a background in audiovisual (AV) training, which he says began in childhood and continues to date.

“I’ve trained in AV since I was young, and I’m still learning.”

This foundation has helped him improve the quality of his productions over time.

Stepping Into the Boxing Ring

Ojiambo is also preparing for an upcoming boxing match at Busia Stadium. He says he feels ready, crediting consistent training and focus.

“I am very ready, unless otherwise.”

While boxing events in many regions often attract political sponsorship, he notes that the Busia match is being supported privately.

According to him, a local businesswoman associated with Anita Ann Mitumba is backing the event, including prize money for winners. He emphasises that, so far, no politicians are involved.
