The Eldoret-based vocal artist told a media outlet that he found out his voicing ability when he was still a ten-year-old boy.

After his parents knew he was the one behind the sounds they were astonished and shocked of how he sounded exactly like the animals.

“I started mimicking in 2010 and I could only do eight sounds by then, I have been improving over time and I now can do 130 sounds,” Said Mayaka.

Mayaka disclosed that he loves watching animal shows and walking in animal parks where he interacts with them.

He also revealed that he can speak words using the animal sounds.

I can mimic sounds of 78 birds, 46 animals and 5 insects. I can also communicate using those sounds,” said Mayaka.

Mayaka has been entertaining his village members and schoolmates with his amazing sounds.

His father, Job Mayaka said that they were first shocked when they learned their boy has that gift but later on understood it is normal to have that ability.
