What are the names of God in various Kenyan tribes?

Answer 1

The names of God in various Kenyan tribes vary greatly from one another. Generally, the Supreme Being is called Mulungu, which means 'the highest' or 'the greatest'. Other common names for God include Ngai (or Mwene Nyaga), Mungu, Unkulunkulu, and Chukwu.

• Mulungu: 'the highest' or 'the greatest'
• Ngai (or Mwene Nyaga)
• Mungu
• Unkulunkulu
• Chukwu

In some tribes, God is known by a particular name associated with a certain aspect of His nature. For example in the Kikuyu tribe, Ngai is known as the Creator and Provider, while in the Kamba tribe, Mungu is known as the All-Knowing and All-Powerful.

Answer 2

In Kenya, different tribes have their own names for God based on their respective languages and cultural beliefs. For example, among the Kikuyu tribe, God is known as Ngai or Mwene Nyaga. Among the Luo tribe, God is referred to as Nyasaye. The Maasai tribe calls God Enkai or Engai. These names reflect the diverse spiritual traditions and languages of the various tribes in Kenya.

Answer 3

There are 40 to 70 tribes and ethnic groups in Kenya. Of the 40 or more ethnic groups currently in Kenya, the main Kenya tribes are Kikuyu (21%), Meru (5%), Kalenjin, Luyha, Luo (14%), Kisii, Kamba, Swahili, Masai, and Turkana.

Answer 4

Here are some, but by no means all. The coastal tribes are called the Mijikenda and comprise the Digo, Guriyama, Bajuni and others. Then there's Rendilli, Luo, Maasai, Turkhana, Wakamaba, Orma, Kikuyu (the largest and most poilitically powerful), Kalenjen, Samburu, Kisii, Ameru, Taita, Pokomo (who live aling the Tana river and have high standards of civic tidiness), Taveta, and finally the mzungu: the white folk!

Answer 5

the only one: there are between 40 and 70 tribes, depending on how you count.

One reason is that tribes have never been closed units: language, culture and appearance often overlap. Families often consist of members of different tribes, and it's a matter of tradition whether a person's tribe is determined by their fathers or mothers line. Another reason is that some ethnic groups are seen as subtribes and others as 'main' tribes. For example, the Rendille, Orma, Boran and Gabbra tribes are sometimes seen as a single tribe: the Oromo. To complicate matters further, different people use different spellings: Agikuyu instead of Kikuyu or Gikuky, Kamba instead of Akamba. http://www.kenya-advisor.com/tribes-in-kenya.html
