- Description
- The Konsolo dance is said to have been performed in the 1930's. Two wives in next door huts call to each other. The one hears the dog bark and calls out the other, "why is the dog barking?" thinking her husband is with her. But the other replies: "No! he is not with me. He is out with that young beauty". (Ndege-aeroplane). A young good looking girl is called 'Ndege' (aeroplane) in the local slang. "Yap, yau, yap, why is the dog barking? Don't you hate beating me because you think our husband is in my house. He is not here because there is Ndege elsewhere." Konsolo women's dance with clapping.
