@JB, you thought right, we all know what he said...
however, this looks like a case of a word with 2 meanings....it is as confusing as the word UK used to describe RAO...and wazuans clarified. In the context the witness explained, it didn't make sense...

I think the implication is actually people from Central...but in the context he defined it, he was moving away from this. Does it have two or several meanings? maybe hidden in the intonation?

Kamama is a name in Kalenjin just as we have the name of Baringo East Mp as Asman Abongotum Kamama. Kap baba actually means "Homestead of my father", While "kap nostoppingthis" refers to home/homestead of nostoppingthis" Hope you now have answers.

Nice! @Lolest revealed that it means persons of brown teeth, a Kale indicated that it means Kikuyus as used in kale talk....clarify further...the argument is that, in as much as you will say "Kamama"...the "P" is actually silent...

It seams a slang for Kikuyus but the suspects wants to denounce and confuse in equal measure. As Kisiis cal luos, Omogere en Luos call Kalenjins- Jalango
The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts while the stupid ones are full of confidence

I think there were two words he was asked to clarify on their meanings. There's the 'kap mama' word which means 'homestead of the uncle', and another word that I cant remember which means brown teeth. He went on to say that there are Kaleos from south rift who also have brown teeth. Guess its a case of making murky waters murkier.
