However, the truth is that Mwala is far from being a Kamba or even coming from anywhere near Ukambani. He was born in the coastal region of Kenya, Taita Taveta, where he was also raised. Mwala is a Taita by tribe and his on-screen Kamba accent is only learned. As he puts it, he is a Taita by birth and a Kamba by profession.
