Just read these two articles...i have been thinking about "these people"...These people the Agikuyu. Who are they? Are they Japotatoes as you call them or are they true worriers...What is the X-FACTOR about hawa watu? Are they cowards? What did the first mubeberu who encountered them first ( Thomas hall? , Dr. CraphF?(whatever)..yaani the first white man or the first Maasai to encounter them describe them as?

The 41 have tried to water down the buffalo soldiers struggle...They have lamented about only Mau Mau being featured in MAshujaa day documentaries on Kenya Broadcasting corporation (KBC). They have asked about Kinjeketile and Nandi worrier Arap Samoei?

Who decided that this country be called Kenya? Where does the word "Kenya" originate from? Is Kenya an Akamba name? Is is a dholuo name? Is it a Giriama name? Is it a Maasai name?What does the word Kenya mean? Is Kenya Kirinyaga? Who are these gikuyus? How many are they? What is their culture? Why do you hate us if you don't understand us


REFS
1.What Kenyan history do you know??..Do you know the Gikuyus?
2. Should we consider Newspapers articles as real references?

Why did Johann Ludwig Krapf decide to call this land Kenya? why didn't he call it Pwani for example? Or Milambo? or Nyika?

I think Agikuyu is a tribe of people found in Kenya.
The rest is irrelevant to progressive thinking.

If there is a difference between Gikuyus and Agikuyu, then you can understand why a simple village idiot can't understand THEM!
Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.

Why can't we leave this tribe thing to the cavemen and move on.I thought Nyerere was very clear and distinct on where this would lead.To Destruction.
