- Description
- This is a story about some young lads who were sleeping in an open place down by the lake. The people of the village were complaining that these boys were stealing their goods at night, their soaked cassava, their firewood and ground nuts, in fact everything was blamed upon them. They tried to explain it away, not in a manner altogether satisfactory to the villagers. Story song with clapping.
