Kenya: Meaning of “Menengai.”

from Owuor Willis

Hi,

The word “Ngai” means God as per kikuyu language. May be we need to understand the prefix ‘mene’ to understand what it means. However, I do not understand very well what I read at:

Could more people help me understand more such that we end up with piece and make many friends.

    MENENGAI

    I suspect that Menengai is a Maasai word! What do you think folks? Be aware that this creator is in central Rift which is ”being grabbed”. So, Willis you may be stoking fires!!

    UHURU/RAILA ALLIANCE

    God forbid!

    This could be suicidal! But I do sincerely trust in Raila Amolo Odinga’s intelligence. Let us cross our fingers and pray to God Kenyans do not fall into the trap again. We have been ditched before, yet history loves repeating itself!

    THERE IS NO NEED TO PANIC

    I think ODM will decide who will be running mate with Raila Amolo Odinga come 2012 presidential elections. Since Uhuru Kenyatta is not an ODM member there should be no need to panic.

    Mount “Kenya” may well stem from Kamba “K?-Nyaa”, “Place of Ostriches “.
    That’s the way the local slave-hunter Chief Kivoi designated it 1849 to the first wazungu explorers.
