Description: The subject of this song refers to the burning question in Bukoba at the time (1950), that of the recent rebellion on the part of the women against virtual enslavement by the men. It has given rise to the most interesting social complications. The rattle is played with a circular movement of the wrist. Ngondo dance song for girls, with 1 laced conical drum and gourd rattle (-12.54-) and clapping (-12.03-).
