Culture Quest: The Kikuyu

The historians have it the Gikuyu family came from West Africa, Congo basin, along with other Bantus such as Kamba, Embu, Meru and Mbeere settling in the central part of Kenya but the natives trace their roots from their forefather 'Gikuyu' who was created by a supreme god known as Ngai.

Culture Quest dives deep into the culture and history of the Kikuyu

KTN News is a leading 24-hour TV channel in Eastern Africa with its headquarters located along Mombasa Road, at Standard Group Centre. This is the most authoritative news channel in Kenya and beyond.

They are part of the lost tribes of Israel! They most likely are the Tribe of Levi! Peace to all my people scattered all over the earth!

Kikuyu Bantu didn't come directly to Kenyan Highlands, as Africans don't reduce history to sound bytes (sic) or next generations will take it for a fact.
Wangu Wamakeri, is also a big story in our tradition.
As journalists earn your pay; you already have a bad reputation, don't add a simple Google search to your only research as well.

Ktn has the poorest video quality.Really in this 21st century?

[oppsinlyf]

ktns video quality is alway poor, not to expect from one of the biggest stations in kenya

[kevinbarasamhm]

Mumbi and Gikuyu is a myth!! But it is one that is done so well. It is absurd to ask Historical questions to a Myth. Happy with Culture Quest, thanks for the initiative Ktn News

This analogy that we came from Congo its a lie, , we are neither in any way associated with jews. We have a very beutiful creation theory. Our family tree started from Gikuyu n Mumbi. Period!!!

[nkeveo]

The Kikuyu Gikuyu are ancient Israelites of the Bible. These are Old Testament customs.
