    1. "NAMBENGELE NABURUCHU" was just used in khukhwilaa, like "Ese Nambengele Nalukhamba, Nabulusya, Natulo owa Nakhombe, owaabina ne busiele. Tundwe Nasiloma, Mwalie owecha ne ekutusi” (I am Nambengele, the Proud one, Nabulusya, son of Natulo, Nakhombe, the one who invades enemies at dawn. I am the stubborn one, the good orator of the Mwalie cluster, who came to Bukusu land with royal trappings).

      But Siruchu is the name of a bird- which completes with eagle to eat chicks. Always defeats the eagle in fighting
