Ryan Mwenda is the main character in Citizen TV's Zora show, which has received a lot of attention. He portrays Simba, the main character Zora's son (Played by Sarah Hassan).

He is a stubborn young man who is always ready to defend his mother, who is married to an abusive man.

For his confidence and superb acting skills, the actor has earned the audience's affection and admiration.

Mwenda has created a name for himself in the entertainment sector at the age of 13, not only by playing on Zora but also by appearing on the Churchill show.

During the unveiling of the Jubilee Party manifesto in 2016, Mwendwa addressed Jubilee supporters and urged them to vote for the president and his deputy, William Ruto.

His deed earned him a warm embrace from the president, resulting in a photo that went viral on social media. Mwenda thanked the president in his speech and told him that he will be re-elected in the 2017 elections.

Mwenda has now rubbed elbows with a number of high-profile Kenyans, including Interior CS Fred Matiang'i, former Nairobi Governor Mike Mbuvi Sonko, and Nairobi senator Johnston Sakaja, to name a few.

Riara Springs Academy is where the 13-year-old attends. He enjoys playing football in his spare time.

In 2020, he made a public announcement in which he urged Kenyans to wash their hands, put on a mask, and maintain social distance as a way to combat the spread of Covid-19.

He asked Kenyans to see the Covid-19 outbreak as a global catastrophe rather than a national failing, and advised people to follow social distancing guidelines.

"Season ya kuride bike si saahii, Watoi wenzangu. Rieng ni kusoma, kumanga na kutulia kwa keja It's time to study, eat, and unwind in the comfort of your own home) "said he.

Zora is a brand-new television show that premiered on March 22, 2021. Sarah Hassan and Jackie Matubia, who played Tanya and Jolene, respectively, on Tahidi High, are among the cast members.
