The Abaluhya called it "Abhasuma" which means "a place to borrow food" such that the luhya would say "I am going Khusuma" to mean "I am going to borrow food".

In 1972,there were only two black Africans lecturing engineering at the University of Nairobi,Mr.Raila Odinga and Prof.Makau Luti,an expert in thermodynamics.
I think there are more theoreticians in lecture halls today than the dons if the past who committed themselves to practical ideas.

Mr Raila Odinga has a craft certificate in welding from a polytechnic in West Germany. How did he land a lecturer job at the UoN?

Kareem Abdul Jabbar was also a martial arts heavyweight and acted in a movie with Bruce Lee. I think The Game of Death. Right?

tumetoka mbali kweli
who remembers The Kenya News Reel
used to be shown before any movie was played.

alafu movie zilikua na end of part 1, time ya kwenda madukana as another reel is being loaded.
agony was reel ikatike katikati ya action, the audience used to yelp a huge groan of agony

Who would imagine then that 500 movies would be stored in a small flash disk and played on a TV without the use of a video player?
