Description: The singer is well known for his ability to sing these old songs which he does with considerable skill. He is the younger brother of the deposed chief, and uncle to the present paramount chief Adam Sapi. He sings partly in Hehe and partly Sanga (50/8/3) in which language they say, old poems are often sung. The sharp rhythmic beatings were made by the player striking the gourd resonator with the back of a finger. Heroic song with Ligombo 6 string trough zither.
