Ndeiya Update

how it went down yesterday .
Today was quite an interesting day. We had planned to go and get our cattle back.

Around 10, young men were regrouping at a place called Ithaganíro where we were to head to maasai land. I was late though. When I arrived, we found the governor, area MCA and other senior citizens had already arrived.

At this time, about 40 armed policemen and women both administration and antistock theft, local administration had already been dispatched to go and get back the cattle. People were talking in small groups until when the governor requested that we be n one meeting. Elder Kiongo led the moment, area MCA made his talk. Former MCA also addressed the crowd.

The villager was also told to address the crowd, I asked them,"kwina múndú wína mwana múgongo atí níekúremwo gúthií mbara?" Anyone with a child on the back that he won't be able to go to war? The crowd cheered and said no. I also told the administration that we cannot discuss anything about peace keeping before we have cattle back.

Now the crowd was charged.

The governor addressed the young men and women who were there. He told them.that peaceful coexistence is fine. He also added that if the administration will not do anything to the issue, we shall take the next move and it won't be favourable. The governor also promised the locals that the police inspector at Ndeiya gwa cibú will not be there anymore.

After he had done talking, we started going towards the maasai land direction.

You see, that place is far, very far. We walked for a number of kilometres and went past the SGR. We didn't stop there. The governor and his contingent followed us upto that point. Around 100 of us. But some of the people who could not walk that distance stopped at the sgr underpass.

We went head on upto the boarder of Kiambu and Kajiado. This is the point where we found the motorbike which had been burnt. We placed it on a boda boda that was with us and it was taken to Ithaganíro.

You see, today I observed something called mob mentality. Some people were inciting us to go and burn the Masai houses that were just meters away. Others like me were advising people to walk back. At this point, I was getting a bad feeling considering we were like 60 young men, where most were armed with njurutati only. Tukiwa hapa, we could see one Moran up the hill just watching us from a far. We also saw 5 morans emerge from a bush and walk up and behind one of the hills.

We could not understand what they were planning.

So we decided to walk back. It was one hell of another walk back home. That place is crazy. I didn't understand how some villagers go there to burn charcoal. On our way back we left ablaze some of their manyatta and Bomas. Almost 8 of them.

On our way back, we waited for the slow men at the SGR underpass. We then went back for the last leg of the journey back.

At around 5 we were back at Ithaganíro.
The antistock theft police didn't stay for long.

They told us that around 200 morans were observing us from those bushes all along. They confirmed to us that where we decided to stop, there ready for any eventuality coming from us. It was that serious. But the moment we walked back, they relaxed on our presence.

Were the cows found? Yes and no.

Those morans and their village elders said that they can only give back the cattle once their 10 sheep were returned back to them.
But don't mistake this. They had stolen some sheep at our hills, young men went and stole 20 from them. Yesterday they came and stole the cows.

I got back in the house around 7 jioniiiii. Tired and full of alot of information.

I had a spear but soon I will need a sword, some arrows and a bow. Those maasai guys are not a joke compared to what we had as weapons.

Yesterday they killed one Kikuyu herder

impure blood tulikuwa tumefanya hivi

What a lot of people here don't know is that virtually all Ndeiyans - including yours truly who's grandma was called Nyokabi (the Ukabi One) are half-Maasai. Ukikuja soko Lusiggeti Sunday utapata half the crowd is Maa, na hata leo mchana utapata tumizee ama tumama tuko na mashuka tukiregarega kwa shopping centre, sometimes asking for food.

My point? I was actually surprised that there were deaths this time round. Otherwise hiyo mchezo ya kuraid mbuzi na 'gucikinyira' (kusirudisha) has been going on for eons. Kitambo, ukipata dame mzuri pia unasonga naye, hence the Nyokabis.

Which is why, by the way the Gikuyu going into Maa land were basically unarmed. Half of them were going to find their in-laws or customers any way on the other side, nothing major could have happened. Wanajuana kapsa! Look at those pictures again and you'll see those folks know each other.

I personally suspect one or two morans got over-excited and did the killing.

By the way tunahurumia pia because they live in very difficult circumstances, which is why suggestions to go full crazy by some radicals - including using poisons to decimate their livestock - were shot down. Just a few abandoned manyattas were burnt by some Kikuyu drunks.

Going forward, the Gikuyu should ask for blood money and let it be. And the Maasai will be told that we can entertain their games but we don't want more deaths.
