Moraa is a Kisii word which means ‘born in the shrubs’.I was born in a village called “Rigoko near Nyansiongo Tea factory.”Nyansiongo “means a place of plenty.This place was a settlement scheme at first but later was inhabited by Kisii migrants. The word “Rigoko ” means a place that when we had heavy rains they would sweep away all the soil into the depression.

The Kisii Heritage Project celebrates Kisii language, culture, and history. Scholars record oral history, create detailed historical maps, explore their heritage, and record traditional songs, recipes, and dance. Compiled by Ajiri Scholars
