Jokema Band

Whilst apologising to friends and fans for his recent absence and silence on the music scene, Isaac, commonly known as Jokema, said: “I am paralysed from the waist down.

“Saying it out loud to you all is part of the recovery process. But I am alive and I thank God for that. Whether or not I will ever walk again is in God's hands, my faith and determination."

It has taken him 10 months to open up after his devastating spinal cord injury, but he is determined to come out on top. 

The 2016 National Capital District (NCD) Carols by Candlelight is the time when city residents come together with their families to enjoy and singalong to their favourite carol.

Artists performing on the night are Bomana string band, POM Vintage, Erima Seventh Day Adventist Youth Choir, Mereani Masani and favourites Jokema.

Residents are invited to join NCD Governor Powes Parkop to ‘walk for peace’ to light the streets with love and peace before assembling at Murray Barracks.

The program kicks off with yogabatics and the Christmas address by Governor Parkop.

Jokema will be performing this Saturday  at Club Mystics and invites fans for this one night show with tickets selling at K80.

The show is part of the band’s national tour launching its new album ‘Niugini Flavor’ which incorporates the culture and ways of the different provinces in PNG.

The album boasts 10 songs sung in different languages and style from Kerema, Morobe, Autonomous Region of Bougainville up to Mt Hagen, Chimbu and across to Manus.

Hit songs released from the album include Niugini Flavor, Sexy Mona Kora, Jix Ambe and Latrusanni featuring O-Shen.
