You can connect with her here instagram.com/galarinanjeri?igshid=MTg0ZDhmNDA= To share your story with us, feel free to send a summary to info@Lnn.digital for consideration. Have a great weekend🙏
I have learned alot..I think I understand more as to why I am how I am..I am a true Kikuyu..the definition is soo clear,good job Gala..go go girl.. you're doing great *Rebellious is the word that you was looking for.. thank you team LNN for the episode
Kamba especially mambo ya urogi - do Kambas really Rogana, ama ni kuwekelewa? If wanarogana, what is women's role in urogi - if any? Are kambas matriarchal or patriarchal? Who do the kids belong to wakiwachana?
I am proud to be a Kikuyu woman, taking care of my children and their father doing nothing, wanting to control everything around us without any contribution. May our good Lord bless Kikuyu women. Thanks Lynn God bless you.
@@Bob-ei1ud They carry the seed but need to fulfill their God given responsibility of providing, coaching & mentorship their kid that they have absconded to invest in EABL.
@mww4491 True with kikuyu community at least in a big way. What are the results though? Look around, take a closer look, look at the general direction this community is moving in terms of stability within family, morals, values, responsibility, etc..just look and honestly so. If you see nothing then come back and tell me men don't mean nothing to kids and more especially male kids in the society.
Central Kenya is largely Matriarchal and have "SPECIAL " children upbringing style that is totally different from other communities in kenya. Whereas I agree with what this elder is saying, my first-hand experience tells me otherwise! Kikuyu women are very hard working no doubt. From the Mau-Mau era, these women must be applauded for their participation in supporting men to succeed in chasing away the Mbeberu. I personally acknowledge them. I wish a Kikuyu man can be a bit assertive and authoritative to show direction and authority. Many Kikuyu men have no teeth to bite but a mere status symbol.Women do more than their men in every aspect including property acquisition. If their men were purposeful and intentional in other areas outside amassement of wealth that often never help them in maintaining good health than pride, Central could be the best in many ways than one. Otherwise kudos kikuyu mothers
Ai you have really put down our men our men are property buyers in fact Kikuyu women buy ING property is a new thing of the year 2000 ,before that it was men single mothers were few and they used to be renters with no property ,I know coz I had several teachers who were single mothers and my mother's workmates anyway women started buying property after they saw what happened to their mothers me been one you let your husband buy everything ,it's all in his name the day he brutalized you our mothers went back to their fathers house with all the kids to live at the mercy of their brothers, untill their fathers said you're msichana amerudi akae hapa kwa hii 1/8th karibu na nyumba yangu ,that's what started this movement of women buying 1/8th to secure ourselves incase
Plus our men have teeth to bite it's the commitment they don't have anymore coz how many time will you go to jail because you're fighting for your family the young men are saying to hell one I know left his wife and told her she can do what she wants he is done with her and the kid she can do as he wants with the kid including deleting the kid and he never looked back
That is A LIE, its a SEMITIC nonesense being peddled here., GÍKÚYÚ is a MAN and ALL LAND belongs to THE MAN and the WOMAN is called MÚÚKA, one who comes into the MANS LAND and THINGIRA(house)! How can that be a MATRIARCHY in what sense? The Múúka receives only KÍADA(kitchen garden),land from the HUSBAND so she can grow whatever she likes and not get into a quarrel with her mother in law but the LAND REMAINS the PROPERTY 0f the MAN through his MALE LINEAGE-always SWITCHING from FATHER TO SON...NEVER to the WOMAN, because she COMES into HIS LAND and does not bring her own land!. There is NO SUCH A THING as GOING DUTCH-FIFTY FIFTY that is SEMITIC NONESENSE TOO! it has NEVER happened and is NOT Gíkúyú culture its SEMITIC and Gíkúyú are NOT SEMITIC or NOAHIDE(CAIN+SETH=NOAH) The Gíkúyú are NOT HEBREWS they are NOT ORIENTAL and are NOT ISRAELITES or JEWS. The Gíkúyú are OTHER sons and daughters of Adam and Eve. They were BORN AFTER SETH had been born and SETH intermarried with CAIN. The FLOOD DESTROYED the houses of CAIN AND SETH andf ONLY EIGHT of CAIN+SETH were SAVED. Why can't BANTU people take PRIDE in WHO THEY ARE and NOT run around trying to TAKE ON OTHER PEOPLES IDENTITIES that those other people are proud of but REJECT YOUR OWN? BANTU are Genesis 5:4 OTHER sons and daughters of Adam and Eve and NOT the father-mother of CAIN or SETH but A BROTHER, so this NONESENSE that the Gíkúyú are ISRAELITES is NONESENSE!-Genesis 10 shows clearly who Israelites are THEY ARE SONS OF NOAH via ARPAHXAD the father of SALAH the father of EBER(Hebrew) the father of PELEG, the father of Abraham, Isaac, JACOB(Israel) and ESAU(Arabs-GINGER BURGUNDY peoples)=JEWS in general. JAPHETH is the father of ORIENTAL peoples of North-SOuth East Asia and SOuth America; HAM is the father of CUSH=INDIA, MIZRAIM Egypt, PHUT(vandals-Libya Tunisia) and CANAAN=EUROPEANS and SHEM the father os ELAM(Persians of Iran); ARAM(Syrians); ASSHUR(Assyrians-Georgia and beyond) LUDI(ancient black Egyptians) and ARPHAXAD the father of modern JEWS AND ARABS. WHERE in that is a BANTU PERSON? THe BANTU are in Genesis 5:4 and DID NOT intermingle with NEANDERTHALS and DENISOVANS as did CAIN and therefore SETH, giving them STRAIGHT COLOURFUL HAIR AND EYES, unlike the BANTU who DID NOT INTERMINGLE with these ALIEN GENE Pools and hence have CURLY HAIR that proves they DID NOT INTERMINGLE with CAIN+SETH=NOAHIDES...ADÚ NÍ MEETIÍE NA ÚÚDÚ WAO matige gúetherera maúdú matarí mao ma kúímena! IF YOU ARE PUREL ABNTUS what is WRONG with that? WHY BORROW other peoples identities? EVER SEEN INDIANS or JEWS or JAPANESE or CHINESE claiming to be BANTU or Gíkúyú? WHY because THEY KNOW THEMSELVES and KNOW they are NOT BANTU people, WE ARE and PROUDLY SO! The Gíkúyú are NOT a MATRIARCHY, the KING of the LAND, the LAND LORD was AND STILL IS a MALE FIGURE, GÍKÚYÚ, and the WOMAN is the one who CAME into Gíkúyú's LAND and THINGIRA, so this "Hebraic matriarchal narrative " IS NOT BANTU and it is definitely NOT GÍKÚYÚ people! The HUSBANDS of the GIRLS did NOT DROP from HEAVEN, that is just a TALE, hence it is A MYTH. Gíkúyú had OVER TWENTY children, that is why he did NOT COUNT how many, because then he will EXPOSE how many children he has and that would expose HIS MILITARY that defends his homeland. COnsequently the SONS were RAISED from BIRTH in the FATHERS THINGIRA, which was located A LITTLE AWAY from the RIKO of the woman and her GIRLS. That was to KEEP the BOYS RIASED AWAY from the GIRLS so that when they were OF AGE they would marry each other, but they would NOT KNOW that they are marrying their BROTHER and the MEN would NOT KNOW that they married their sisters.So the MEN were raised by the FATHER in the FOREST and that is why they grew LOCKS as they had NO MOTHER to SHAVE THEIR HEADS as she had done when they were SMALL. AFTER the boy child began to NOTICE the FEMALE MOTHER, then the BOY was considered old and MOVED FURTHER into the FOREST where he would be DISTANCED from his mother and sisters, whom he related to as WOMEN to marry in future, but the MOTHER did NOT GO TO THE RIVER or to fetch firewood, as she had SONS, SO BOYS were RAISED by the FATHER int he DEEP FOREST as soon as they were WEENED from the RIKO, and from the MANS THINGIRA, where the MOTHER was henceforth NOT IN CONTACT with her BOYS. That is why the MEN LIVED in the THINGIRA with his SONS and the WOMAN lived with her GIRLS in her RIKO. The HOME was A WOMANS PLACE in that it was the CENTRE of the MÚCIÍ, where THE MAN and his sons would come to HOLD RÚRACIO and to INVITE the NEW BRIDES into the FAMILY, NOT because the WOMAN was the RULER. WANGÚ WA MAKERI was an ethno-anthropologiests narrative. The FIFITY FIFTY is a SEMITIC-HENREW- DUTCH narrative, there was NO SUCH A THING as a FIFITY FIFITY. THe WOMANS WEALTH belonged with her as long as she was raising children as RIÍGU RÍA CIANA CIAKE in case of a FAMINE OR DROUGHT or any CALAMITY, she would have PROVISIONS for her children. So that narrative is FALSE about FIFTY FIFITY!-"GOING DUTCH" That largest number of single mothers are Gíkúyú is because the MEN began to LEAVE HOME to GO OUT and FIND JOBS ELSEWHERE in the COUNTRY, and rarely RETURNED HOME but MARRIED wherever they went to work. The WOMAN kept the children because she HAD THE MOST WORK DONE by her and her children. The MEN usually considered themselves SELF SUFFICIENT and if they needed HELP it was said they were enslaving their childrten if they called on their children, they called upon THEIR CIRCUMCISION AGE SET to WORK the land with each other but NOT THEIR CHILDREN who were considered AS HELPERS of their MOTHER. Gíkúyú DO NOT WORSHIP the MALE! they consider the MAN as JUST ANOTHER HUMAN BEING not some kind of special HUMAN to be treated as if he were SUPERIOR to the FEMALE< he was just a RESPECTABLE MAN as the FATHER of the family, but NOT as some kind of KING or SUPERIOR being! The women of "CIERO DUNE" is a SOUTH AFRICAN narrative and it is NOT TRUE of the Gíkúyú, these are FOOLISH accusations being made about the Gíkúÿú that DO NOT APPLY to them, except if they COPIED OTHER CULTURES but they are NOT Part of the Gíkúyú culture. SACUBUS is NOT a Gíkúÿú culture because ther eis NOT EVEN A WORD for DEMONS!, NGOMA is NOT A DEMON!
You've relegated them to 'baby' status, diminished their importance and true value etc cetera. Take care of your 'babies'. Other communities have their mature grownups..though not all act mature.
I am a woman of African descent in the Caribbean. I have wondered about my tribal origin. The description given has confirmed to me that I am a Kikuyu woman. So proud to be a Jew of the bronze. It all came when I looked away from Christianity and asked the Creator to teach me his way. He brought me to Kenya and placed me in the home of kikuyu. He gave me a portion of there blessing. He gave me a view of the summit of mt.kenya and I knew his presence was there. It's amazing that he brought me to this presentation. I am thankful. My journey has only began.
they are speaking SEMITIC ethno-anthropoligical SETTLE COLONIAL NONESENSE! the BANTU are NOT of the sons of NOAH PERIOD! DONT be fooled by this FALSEHOODS peddled by the EBRU and other SEMITIC FUNDERS of this show, they are LIARS and they are telling LIES as THE BANTU KNOW THEMSELVES and LNOW for a FACT they are NOT OF NOAH!! nor HAMETIC nor SEMETIC nor Israelite for that matter! The Gíkúyú are NOT HEBREWS they are NOT ORIENTAL and are NOT ISRAELITES or JEWS. The Gíkúyú are OTHER sons and daughters of Adam and Eve.

I thought I was a proud Kikuyu until I came abroad and I suddenly wanted so much to speak gikuyu better and Associate with my people, our music etc I love this conversation and think it's brilliant that you found this gem of a maitu to interview😍 Never been more proud!
I'm a kamba and I've worked with kikuyus...I have admire their hard work...and I've adopted their mindset..I thank God for giving me the apportunity....to live with them..keep up kikuyu women
As a kikuyu woman, I wish I could like this video a billion times. Lynn, Gala and the rest of the LNN family, I thankyou! Lessons from more tribes and communities are very appreciated.
It all depends with your character, its not about tribe its about the vision and what you want with your life. Personally I'm a Kikuyu but I've come across other ladies from other tribes and they're too doing great, its just a perception that the Kikuyus are hardworking, if you do a simple analysis you'll realize that there're those that're hardworking and there're those that're lazy, they're the richest and at the same time they're the poorest. So its not about tribe its about God's plan with everyone's life. Much love to every tribe in Kenya, I love the diversity💞
The wisest comment have come across from a kikuyu. Resist the attempt to profile either positively or negatively. You read most kikuyu comments you quickly read a stereotyped attitude, infatuated excitements that are quite shallow. Other communities been watching for decades and are taking notes. Wisdom is never a reserve of the aged. You may grossly be mislead and misguided even by the old in thinly veiled deceptions.
Fact is Kikuyu women stand out,and nothing can change that. Other tribes have a few who do but on matter percentage, Kikuyus have it. That's the point here sio eti other tribes are lazy or anything.
A very proud Kikuyu girl, it's inborn,we don't strain. Nonsense ndio hatupendi,and we don't have time to waste kwanza on silly things!! It's just us and we can't change anything💃👍🙏.
The Kikuyu woman had alot of respect for her husband because he married her. He brought 🐐 🐐 for her to feed & raise at home. She was a CONTRIBUTOR and not a SLAVE & therefore could not kneel to her husband. She is hard working, she provides & hates idleness 😁 Now I understand some traits about myself. Naitwa Wangui & am sooo proud of my roots. 👏👏👏
Having wababas or begging a thousand men for rent and upkeep should not be classified as hard work or a positive trait or "I don't take lazy men blah blah". Cheers to every hardworking lady.. Kikuyus or any other ethnic group.
They can call Kikuyu women all the names but il never let that bother me,i know who i am will continue to be proudly kikuyu the world will have to adjust to the fact that thats who we are.
This is so true 🤣 ukitembea kwetu upate my dad and no one else is in the home ,he will say "guku gutire andu ndiue kuria mathire" as if he's not a person 😂it's true Kikuyu women owns the home 🏠 not the husband
according to your name,youre a meru like me and your comment is your opinion sure,but please dont learn from these people they will corrupt your morals,,,,you will be sucked into singlehoodness,coldness and unromantic side.Meru is a matriachial system mom learn from fellow meru or kambas not from these arrogant women
And what is wrong with keeping one's composure or controlling oneself; staying focused on one's objective(s) in life; working hard rather than begging or having to depend on anyone; ....???? 🤔🤔🤔
Honestly I just love this woman , she told nothing but the truth....why would I submit to a man who is absolutely useless, abusive, disrespectful and nasty... The last thing a woman wants is to romance a useless ma🙏🙏thanks ma'am
Athuri Thaii,Atumia Thayu. I'm a proud Kikuyu woman. It's so true Kikuyu woman works hard to dig the real Gold.With support of my hubby i started a business where by my hubby quit his job to join me Today we have prospered Glory to God. Go Kikuyu women 👏 💙 💪.
Proud Kikuyu and Hebrew. I love our culture and our pple. Money is our business and am grateful God has given us that ability to make wealth. God bless our Nation of Gikuyu and Mumbi.Thaai.
There are smaller tribes in Kenya, more religious, principled, hardworking and successful as the Hebrews. I repeat..small tribe. Do your research. Hebrews were and still are PATRIARCHAL, not matriarchal. We're cutting it a little too high for ourselves making us start imagining ourselves 'special '. Forget that!
Mahn this is just not for Kikuyu women but for all women. I have so much respect for Kikuyu women henceforth. Culture has favoured men since time immemorial. Even the polygamy that the modern men praise was just to favor men. Women had a lot of burden on their shoulders in the past. As a modern Luo woman, I celebrate the African woman for her tenacity.
According to the documentary Scars of Lari, up to half of all Kikuyu men disappeared during the emergency period of colonialism (through aerial bombing in the Aberdare forest etc). So fending for themselves became 2nd nature to the women
I think it's across more than one tribe ,I'm not kikuyu and I know from my tribe that upbringing was left for women and mostly they did an amazing job.disciplining, shielding and providing for their children
Culture is beautiful I have learnt something new about Kikuyu women which is beautiful actually they're hard working laziness is not their portion. Let's embrace our cultures they're all beautiful and as Mrs. Kiboi said it they were all ordained by God. Much love for all African tribal cultures.
Because traditionally we dont take cr@ p from men; polygamy, kuchapwa, kuchapa watoto wetu etc. Some are hardworking but we also have lazy ones who are horrible gold diggers. I ust also add these stereotypes have been fueled by the sore election loss memories between Raila and kikuyu former presidents. Otherwise before that we were the best wives and still are hence why we still feature in almost every wedding show. God will always vindicate we the innocent.
I was among who wanted to hear about our tribe najivunia kua mugikuyu Yumite muranga na jiguaga ngenete niudu kiu nikio kihumo gitu Ithuothe tuge thayu💞💕 #mwari wa muthamaki 👑
Don't be worried by the names we are called. Overtime I have learnt the most important thing is to know as a woman what you are made of and what you are capable of doing. We must be.
@@olivenjoki2853 i remember a guy telling he cant date me since am kikuyu and single mum of one....wacha nitafute pesa mm..the notion about us..annoys me
My take home, kikuyu women respected the husband but not a SLAVE (Mutumwa). She owns the wealth, home and food. Hard working(wealth makers). Naturally romance disappear’s when a man brings only his legs home.
My take home in this GREAT WORK, will be on the BIG cultural truths stated, that gets some uncomfortable to aid in healing for those healing from their life’s journey and also help end that which destroys in the name of culture or on the other hand empower that which aids as a solution from our cultures. We have to be comfortable to listen to both that hurts or empowers to be future solutions. Can’t wait for the Kikuyu Man cultural mindset about the role or should I say the place of the woman.
I don't understand why every topic of defence that justifies the kikuyu woman as she is (hardworking) portrays the kikuyu man as lazy, drunkard and abusive. Aren't kikuyu men some of the most hardworking men in this country?
Thank you. Sounds like Social activism pits different groups of people against each other rather than building "the society". Why take one down so as to empower the other? I choose Human rights over group rights every time.
Am a Kikuyu ,and it's true Kikuyu men are lazy and drunkards...very useless...they got used to their women doing more ,thru their wives hardwork they get the admiration from their community
You may not understand it unless you are living it. The kikuyu woman relates very well with this. Remember, behind every successful man, there is a great woman.
Indeed. There are a lot of very industrious and hard working Kikuyu men and they should be recognized and appreciated. Sadly, this overshadowed by the number of mostly younger men who have taken to irresponsible drunkenness. It's a major problem.
Gala Njeri. Congrats. Good interview. I like the way you ask questions. You are very thorough, no holding back, no biasness. Keep it up gal. You are the best, and am learning a lot about different cultures. Cant wait again for the next. Taita, Kikuyu......... ? Can,t wait.
Its not about similarity kikuyus are Jews to be specific Israelites. Jews are not supposed to be white do your research. All bantu people on earth are Israelites. And the black people in the diaspora(Majuu) are Judah people they came from west Africa mostly during the slave trade and also there are people in west Africa who are from the tribe of Judah. We are all one according to the bible and what God said that he shall make Judah and Israel one. And also another thing people don't know is about the curses spoken of over the children of God that is the tribes of Israelites Isaiah 3:12, As for My people, children are their oppressors, And women rule over them. That is why you find many kikuyu women ruling over their households. Men should just stop complaining and know why things are the way they are and know how to deal with that so as to remove themselves from the curse and of course that getting in touch with their head and that is God. I always say when the head is sick the whole body is sick...that is if men are not Godly that means they are sick they'll be out of order and the are supposed to lead.
I wish she was more honest than defensive. We know the history behind red thigh women, it exists. We know kikuyu women are hardworking but portraying kikuyu men as lazy and drunkards to be the reason behind it is ridiculous
What I learnt from this episode is that we the men need to do more effort to support our sisters and the family so we can have a sustainable relationship and togetherness. There’s a lot of men who drunk too much and they come home and start bitting up the women who have not done anything wrong. It’s just that he is not on earth because of his drunkenness and some occasions the woman is killed.
Thank you so much for asking these vital questions, but many thanks to Mama for answering them with such grace and wisdom. I'm a Jamaican woman living in UK and I believe I must have been a Kikuyu woman in time pass and my lazy exhusband is one of those drunks she talks about, even though he couldn't stomach alcohol 😅
The Kikuyu community fought for independence. Their husbands were most of the time in the forest fighting. This gave them the head position in the family. They grew to raise families, protect homes and build their territories.
No way. Many societies in the world have had their men lead struggles I believe but hardly would one find such convert from patriarchal to matriarchal societies. Let men have their rightful place in society and you would be amazed even at the discipline and order that homes would have. Try flipping nature, it will flip you around instead
Waoh nice job......proud Kikuyu girl.....I guess the issue of Kikuyu women are not into poverty...so issues ya Kikuyu women loving money has been addressed.....kudos Gala and Lynn show at large.....
It is a beautiful culture. On the last statement, some Christians, or Christianity as a religious practice may be uncaring, but CHRIST cares, and cared to death. I am a Kikuyu , thankful to belong so, and I love and belong to Jesus Culture too.
My home take is muratina is an antibiotic 😂🥳🎉🥰 This is very informative and debunked the current negative narrative and perceptions about kikuyu women. I hope this goes wide for education purposes
Woooow schooling never ends. Wonderful interview after my second run through the cultural aspect of our culture truly stands out beautifully. So, these wealth makers hebu niji pange 😁😁😁
The headlines though 😁😁😁lynn you have remind me my ex mum alinichukia juu mimi ni mkikuyu akasema sisi ni hatarii 😁😁😁hii show imenikumbushaàa mob anyhows we love you Lynn

@mww4491 True with kikuyu community at least in a big way. What are the results though? Look around, take a closer look, look at the general direction this community is moving in terms of stability within family, morals, values, responsibility, etc..just look and honestly so. If you see nothing then come back and tell me men don't mean nothing to kids and more especially male kids in the society.
Central Kenya is largely Matriarchal and have "SPECIAL " children upbringing style that is totally different from other communities in kenya. Whereas I agree with what this elder is saying, my first-hand experience tells me otherwise! Kikuyu women are very hard working no doubt. From the Mau-Mau era, these women must be applauded for their participation in supporting men to succeed in chasing away the Mbeberu. I personally acknowledge them. I wish a Kikuyu man can be a bit assertive and authoritative to show direction and authority. Many Kikuyu men have no teeth to bite but a mere status symbol.Women do more than their men in every aspect including property acquisition. If their men were purposeful and intentional in other areas outside amassement of wealth that often never help them in maintaining good health than pride, Central could be the best in many ways than one. Otherwise kudos kikuyu mothers
Ai you have really put down our men our men are property buyers in fact Kikuyu women buy ING property is a new thing of the year 2000 ,before that it was men single mothers were few and they used to be renters with no property ,I know coz I had several teachers who were single mothers and my mother's workmates anyway women started buying property after they saw what happened to their mothers me been one you let your husband buy everything ,it's all in his name the day he brutalized you our mothers went back to their fathers house with all the kids to live at the mercy of their brothers, untill their fathers said you're msichana amerudi akae hapa kwa hii 1/8th karibu na nyumba yangu ,that's what started this movement of women buying 1/8th to secure ourselves incase
Plus our men have teeth to bite it's the commitment they don't have anymore coz how many time will you go to jail because you're fighting for your family the young men are saying to hell one I know left his wife and told her she can do what she wants he is done with her and the kid she can do as he wants with the kid including deleting the kid and he never looked back
That is A LIE, its a SEMITIC nonesense being peddled here., GÍKÚYÚ is a MAN and ALL LAND belongs to THE MAN and the WOMAN is called MÚÚKA, one who comes into the MANS LAND and THINGIRA(house)! How can that be a MATRIARCHY in what sense? The Múúka receives only KÍADA(kitchen garden),land from the HUSBAND so she can grow whatever she likes and not get into a quarrel with her mother in law but the LAND REMAINS the PROPERTY 0f the MAN through his MALE LINEAGE-always SWITCHING from FATHER TO SON...NEVER to the WOMAN, because she COMES into HIS LAND and does not bring her own land!.
There is NO SUCH A THING as GOING DUTCH-FIFTY FIFTY that is SEMITIC NONESENSE TOO! it has NEVER happened and is NOT Gíkúyú culture its SEMITIC and Gíkúyú are NOT SEMITIC or NOAHIDE(CAIN+SETH=NOAH)
The Gíkúyú are NOT HEBREWS they are NOT ORIENTAL and are NOT ISRAELITES or JEWS. The Gíkúyú are OTHER sons and daughters of Adam and Eve. They were BORN AFTER SETH had been born and SETH intermarried with CAIN. The FLOOD DESTROYED the houses of CAIN AND SETH andf ONLY EIGHT of CAIN+SETH were SAVED. Why can't BANTU people take PRIDE in WHO THEY ARE and NOT run around trying to TAKE ON OTHER PEOPLES IDENTITIES that those other people are proud of but REJECT YOUR OWN? BANTU are Genesis 5:4 OTHER sons and daughters of Adam and Eve and NOT the father-mother of CAIN or SETH but A BROTHER, so this NONESENSE that the Gíkúyú are ISRAELITES is NONESENSE!-Genesis 10 shows clearly who Israelites are THEY ARE SONS OF NOAH via ARPAHXAD the father of SALAH the father of EBER(Hebrew) the father of PELEG, the father of Abraham, Isaac, JACOB(Israel) and ESAU(Arabs-GINGER BURGUNDY peoples)=JEWS in general. JAPHETH is the father of ORIENTAL peoples of North-SOuth East Asia and SOuth America; HAM is the father of CUSH=INDIA, MIZRAIM Egypt, PHUT(vandals-Libya Tunisia) and CANAAN=EUROPEANS and SHEM the father os ELAM(Persians of Iran); ARAM(Syrians); ASSHUR(Assyrians-Georgia and beyond) LUDI(ancient black Egyptians) and ARPHAXAD the father of modern JEWS AND ARABS. WHERE in that is a BANTU PERSON? THe BANTU are in Genesis 5:4 and DID NOT intermingle with NEANDERTHALS and DENISOVANS as did CAIN and therefore SETH, giving them STRAIGHT COLOURFUL HAIR AND EYES, unlike the BANTU who DID NOT INTERMINGLE with these ALIEN GENE Pools and hence have CURLY HAIR that proves they DID NOT INTERMINGLE with CAIN+SETH=NOAHIDES...ADÚ NÍ MEETIÍE NA ÚÚDÚ WAO matige gúetherera maúdú matarí mao ma kúímena! IF YOU ARE PUREL ABNTUS what is WRONG with that? WHY BORROW other peoples identities? EVER SEEN INDIANS or JEWS or JAPANESE or CHINESE claiming to be BANTU or Gíkúyú? WHY because THEY KNOW THEMSELVES and KNOW they are NOT BANTU people, WE ARE and PROUDLY SO!
The Gíkúyú are NOT a MATRIARCHY, the KING of the LAND, the LAND LORD was AND STILL IS a MALE FIGURE, GÍKÚYÚ, and the WOMAN is the one who CAME into Gíkúyú's LAND and THINGIRA, so this "Hebraic matriarchal narrative " IS NOT BANTU and it is definitely NOT GÍKÚYÚ people!
The HUSBANDS of the GIRLS did NOT DROP from HEAVEN, that is just a TALE, hence it is A MYTH. Gíkúyú had OVER TWENTY children, that is why he did NOT COUNT how many, because then he will EXPOSE how many children he has and that would expose HIS MILITARY that defends his homeland. COnsequently the SONS were RAISED from BIRTH in the FATHERS THINGIRA, which was located A LITTLE AWAY from the RIKO of the woman and her GIRLS. That was to KEEP the BOYS RIASED AWAY from the GIRLS so that when they were OF AGE they would marry each other, but they would NOT KNOW that they are marrying their BROTHER and the MEN would NOT KNOW that they married their sisters.So the MEN were raised by the FATHER in the FOREST and that is why they grew LOCKS as they had NO MOTHER to SHAVE THEIR HEADS as she had done when they were SMALL. AFTER the boy child began to NOTICE the FEMALE MOTHER, then the BOY was considered old and MOVED FURTHER into the FOREST where he would be DISTANCED from his mother and sisters, whom he related to as WOMEN to marry in future, but the MOTHER did NOT GO TO THE RIVER or to fetch firewood, as she had SONS,
SO BOYS were RAISED by the FATHER int he DEEP FOREST as soon as they were WEENED from the RIKO, and from the MANS THINGIRA, where the MOTHER was henceforth NOT IN CONTACT with her BOYS.
That is why the MEN LIVED in the THINGIRA with his SONS and the WOMAN lived with her GIRLS in her RIKO. The HOME was A WOMANS PLACE in that it was the CENTRE of the MÚCIÍ, where THE MAN and his sons would come to HOLD RÚRACIO and to INVITE the NEW BRIDES into the FAMILY, NOT because the WOMAN was the RULER. WANGÚ WA MAKERI was an ethno-anthropologiests narrative. The FIFITY FIFTY is a SEMITIC-HENREW- DUTCH narrative, there was NO SUCH A THING as a FIFITY FIFITY. THe WOMANS WEALTH belonged with her as long as she was raising children as RIÍGU RÍA CIANA CIAKE in case of a FAMINE OR DROUGHT or any CALAMITY, she would have PROVISIONS for her children. So that narrative is FALSE about FIFTY FIFITY!-"GOING DUTCH"
That largest number of single mothers are Gíkúyú is because the MEN began to LEAVE HOME to GO OUT and FIND JOBS ELSEWHERE in the COUNTRY, and rarely RETURNED HOME but MARRIED wherever they went to work.
The WOMAN kept the children because she HAD THE MOST WORK DONE by her and her children. The MEN usually considered themselves SELF SUFFICIENT and if they needed HELP it was said they were enslaving their childrten if they called on their children, they called upon THEIR CIRCUMCISION AGE SET to WORK the land with each other but NOT THEIR CHILDREN who were considered AS HELPERS of their MOTHER.
Gíkúyú DO NOT WORSHIP the MALE! they consider the MAN as JUST ANOTHER HUMAN BEING not some kind of special HUMAN to be treated as if he were SUPERIOR to the FEMALE< he was just a RESPECTABLE MAN as the FATHER of the family, but NOT as some kind of KING or SUPERIOR being!
The women of "CIERO DUNE" is a SOUTH AFRICAN narrative and it is NOT TRUE of the Gíkúyú, these are FOOLISH accusations being made about the Gíkúÿú that DO NOT APPLY to them, except if they COPIED OTHER CULTURES but they are NOT Part of the Gíkúyú culture.
SACUBUS is NOT a Gíkúÿú culture because ther eis NOT EVEN A WORD for DEMONS!, NGOMA is NOT A DEMON!
No Kikuyu has never been matriach society do your history well.
In some tribes,men remain with the kids,kikuyu women go with their children/therefore many single mothers
It is better to be a single mum than have an arrogant cruel grown man who wants to be treated as a baby and behaves as one.
true
Hear! Hear!
You've relegated them to 'baby' status, diminished their importance and true value etc cetera. Take care of your 'babies'. Other communities have their mature grownups..though not all act mature.

I am a woman of African descent in the Caribbean. I have wondered about my tribal origin. The description given has confirmed to me that I am a Kikuyu woman. So proud to be a Jew of the bronze. It all came when I looked away from Christianity and asked the Creator to teach me his way. He brought me to Kenya and placed me in the home of kikuyu. He gave me a portion of there blessing. He gave me a view of the summit of mt.kenya and I knew his presence was there. It's amazing that he brought me to this presentation.
I am thankful. My journey has only began.

Never been more proud!
you don't know your tribe language? but you know kizungu mingi😂 languages are God given & its unique 😊
I'm a kamba and I've worked with kikuyus...I have admire their hard work...and I've adopted their mindset..I thank God for giving me the apportunity....to live with them..keep up kikuyu women

As a kikuyu woman, I wish I could like this video a billion times.
Lynn, Gala and the rest of the LNN family, I thankyou!
Lessons from more tribes and communities are very appreciated.
Is it Kikuyu woman or Gikuyu woman?
Am a proud kikuyu and eager to learn about my culture
Thanks for this lyne
Well said...am not a kikuyu but this woman has elaborated it so well.shes very wise indeed..big up to her.
That's true
It all depends with your character, its not about tribe its about the vision and what you want with your life. Personally I'm a Kikuyu but I've come across other ladies from other tribes and they're too doing great, its just a perception that the Kikuyus are hardworking, if you do a simple analysis you'll realize that there're those that're hardworking and there're those that're lazy, they're the richest and at the same time they're the poorest. So its not about tribe its about God's plan with everyone's life. Much love to every tribe in Kenya, I love the diversity💞
i guess it's human nature to want to put people in a box
Absolutely true.
Lisemwalo liko. I'm not saying other tribes are not hardworking but there's a reason why kikuyu stand out.
The wisest comment have come across from a kikuyu. Resist the attempt to profile either positively or negatively. You read most kikuyu comments you quickly read a stereotyped attitude, infatuated excitements that are quite shallow. Other communities been watching for decades and are taking notes. Wisdom is never a reserve of the aged. You may grossly be mislead and misguided even by the old in thinly veiled deceptions.
Fact is Kikuyu women stand out,and nothing can change that. Other tribes have a few who do but on matter percentage, Kikuyus have it. That's the point here sio eti other tribes are lazy or anything.
A very proud Kikuyu girl, it's inborn,we don't strain. Nonsense ndio hatupendi,and we don't have time to waste kwanza on silly things!! It's just us and we can't change anything💃👍🙏.
Let's talk about the interviewer. She is asking the right questions. Very informative show. Tuletee ya wanaume sasa.
We love our girl Gala. Thank you for supporting her❤️❤️
She's Soo eloquent, well put together, beautiful I love gajeri
She had done her research hence articulate.
The Kikuyu woman had alot of respect for her husband because he married her. He brought 🐐 🐐 for her to feed & raise at home. She was a CONTRIBUTOR and not a SLAVE & therefore could not kneel to her husband. She is hard working, she provides & hates idleness 😁 Now I understand some traits about myself. Naitwa Wangui & am sooo proud of my roots. 👏👏👏
Having wababas or begging a thousand men for rent and upkeep should not be classified as hard work or a positive trait or "I don't take lazy men blah blah". Cheers to every hardworking lady.. Kikuyus or any other ethnic group.
My point exactly🤣🙌
Kikuyu women are wealth makers. PeriodT 😃

There are smaller tribes in Kenya, more religious, principled, hardworking and successful as the Hebrews. I repeat..small tribe. Do your research. Hebrews were and still are PATRIARCHAL, not matriarchal. We're cutting it a little too high for ourselves making us start imagining ourselves 'special '. Forget that!
Mahn this is just not for Kikuyu women but for all women. I have so much respect for Kikuyu women henceforth. Culture has favoured men since time immemorial. Even the polygamy that the modern men praise was just to favor men. Women had a lot of burden on their shoulders in the past. As a modern Luo woman, I celebrate the African woman for her tenacity.
According to the documentary Scars of Lari, up to half of all Kikuyu men disappeared during the emergency period of colonialism (through aerial bombing in the Aberdare forest etc). So fending for themselves became 2nd nature to the women
True. Also, the fact that Mau Mau was made up of mostly Kikuyu men (some women too); meant that wives were left to build their homes.
@@MwaleWaGitau Yes. I watched another TV interview of a woman who was involved in the struggle -- the things that happened to her were horrendous.
Exactly, there is nothing like Kikuyu Women are aggressive etc, circmucstances forced our great grand mother and it was passed down to us

I think it's across more than one tribe ,I'm not kikuyu and I know from my tribe that upbringing was left for women and mostly they did an amazing job.disciplining, shielding and providing for their children
Culture is beautiful I have learnt something new about Kikuyu women which is beautiful actually they're hard working laziness is not their portion. Let's embrace our cultures they're all beautiful and as Mrs. Kiboi said it they were all ordained by God. Much love for all African tribal cultures.
Because traditionally we dont take cr@ p from men; polygamy, kuchapwa, kuchapa watoto wetu etc. Some are hardworking but we also have lazy ones who are horrible gold diggers. I ust also add these stereotypes have been fueled by the sore election loss memories between Raila and kikuyu former presidents. Otherwise before that we were the best wives and still are hence why we still feature in almost every wedding show. God will always vindicate we the innocent.
Kikuyu women are good... They look into the future.

My take home, kikuyu women respected the husband but not a SLAVE (Mutumwa). She owns the wealth, home and food. Hard working(wealth makers). Naturally romance disappear’s when a man brings only his legs home.
Why do you portray kikuyu men as lazy and drunkards, some of the most hardworking men in kenya are kikuyu men
My take home in this GREAT WORK, will be on the BIG cultural truths stated, that gets some uncomfortable to aid in healing for those healing from their life’s journey and also help end that which destroys in the name of culture or on the other hand empower that which aids as a solution from our cultures. We have to be comfortable to listen to both that hurts or empowers to be future solutions. Can’t wait for the Kikuyu Man cultural mindset about the role or should I say the place of the woman.
We live in a new era..
I don't understand why every topic of defence that justifies the kikuyu woman as she is (hardworking) portrays the kikuyu man as lazy, drunkard and abusive. Aren't kikuyu men some of the most hardworking men in this country?
Thank you. Sounds like Social activism pits different groups of people against each other rather than building "the society". Why take one down so as to empower the other? I choose Human rights over group rights every time.
Am a Kikuyu ,and it's true Kikuyu men are lazy and drunkards...very useless...they got used to their women doing more ,thru their wives hardwork they get the admiration from their community
You may not understand it unless you are living it. The kikuyu woman relates very well with this. Remember, behind every successful man, there is a great woman.
@@elizabethwangui2008 wachana nayeye sisi tuko kwa ground we know it well
Indeed. There are a lot of very industrious and hard working Kikuyu men and they should be recognized and appreciated. Sadly, this overshadowed by the number of mostly younger men who have taken to irresponsible drunkenness. It's a major problem.

Its not about similarity kikuyus are Jews to be specific Israelites. Jews are not supposed to be white do your research. All bantu people on earth are Israelites. And the black people in the diaspora(Majuu) are Judah people they came from west Africa mostly during the slave trade and also there are people in west Africa who are from the tribe of Judah. We are all one according to the bible and what God said that he shall make Judah and Israel one. And also another thing people don't know is about the curses spoken of over the children of God that is the tribes of Israelites Isaiah 3:12, As for My people, children are their oppressors, And women rule over them. That is why you find many kikuyu women ruling over their households. Men should just stop complaining and know why things are the way they are and know how to deal with that so as to remove themselves from the curse and of course that getting in touch with their head and that is God. I always say when the head is sick the whole body is sick...that is if men are not Godly that means they are sick they'll be out of order and the are supposed to lead.
Great content Gala. Let our story be told by us #TheGikuyusAreBlessed 🌍🌞🌊🌴❤🎁🔥💯✔

This is how africa live before colonial time ancient times
I wish she was more honest than defensive. We know the history behind red thigh women, it exists. We know kikuyu women are hardworking but portraying kikuyu men as lazy and drunkards to be the reason behind it is ridiculous

What I learnt from this episode is that we the men need to do more effort to support our sisters and the family so we can have a sustainable relationship and togetherness. There’s a lot of men who drunk too much and they come home and start bitting up the women who have not done anything wrong. It’s just that he is not on earth because of his drunkenness and some occasions the woman is killed.
Great work!!! Very insightful. Asanteni sana

The Kikuyu community fought for independence. Their husbands were most of the time in the forest fighting. This gave them the head position in the family. They grew to raise families, protect homes and build their territories.
Makes a lot sense
No way. Many societies in the world have had their men lead struggles I believe but hardly would one find such convert from patriarchal to matriarchal societies. Let men have their rightful place in society and you would be amazed even at the discipline and order that homes would have. Try flipping nature, it will flip you around instead
The independence didn't take hundreds of years. A small work to liberate community, not even country.
The women were the strategically ,organised supply of arms and food to the freedom fighters.

It's been a really awesome interview props mazee Great job
It is a beautiful culture. On the last statement, some Christians, or Christianity as a religious practice may be uncaring, but CHRIST cares, and cared to death. I am a Kikuyu , thankful to belong so, and I love and belong to Jesus Culture too.
Jesus Christ gives me rest and peace
@@traceyjohnson3925 me too. I am forever thankful to know the Person of Jesus.
The two can never coexist
Jesus culture was Jewish culture.moreso jesus was not God.he was sent by God because we only have one God.
Amazing good job Lynn and your crew
My home take is muratina is an antibiotic 😂🥳🎉🥰
This is very informative and debunked the current negative narrative and perceptions about kikuyu women.
I hope this goes wide for education purposes
Hapo kwa Muratina though🤣🤣🤣
@@LynnNgugi 😂😂😂
Yes it's a prebiotic
It depends on how it is made - ingredients. Honey 🍯 was one of the main ingredients which is naturally an antibiotic.
Karūhīa 🤣
A proud kikuyu here,,mumbui is my clan,,kabete is my home 💃💃💃💎
It’s because there are not enough hardworking men in the African society. It’s the mothers who do more than 70 percent of the household’s work.
Woooow schooling never ends. Wonderful interview after my second run through the cultural aspect of our culture truly stands out beautifully. So, these wealth makers hebu niji pange 😁😁😁
