- Description
- "Nikhonyowa, I want to take you, for my friend. My mother in Muthollolla." The Lomwe delight in singing with their special friends and no doubt the originator of this song had chosen Nikhonyowa to sing with him. Mothollola is the name of a village beyond Mlanje mountain in Portuguese territory from where he came over to Nyasaland as so many Lomwe have done, about 200,000 in the last 10 to 20 years. Party song with clapping.
