- Description: Both the drum and the hands beat out the usual double beat, with the stick providing the simple syncopation of 3 beats and a double beat followed by 2 beats and a double, so commonly found throughout Southern Congo, regardless of the measure of the song. The song ends with the leader calling out to the singers "Manyoka" to which they answer with a set phrase which sounds like: "A pinda akwezhi." Party song with clapping and small goblet drum tapped on the side as well as beaten (14.52251-).
