Description: Sikusinja was a rich man who was killed by his brother Gwenembe. A bird saw him do it and flew to the village to tell everyone what had happened. Through his singing the people understood what had happened. Gwenembe was a poor man who coveted his brothers belongings, and that is why he killed him. The bird when singing said, "Don't wonder, I saw Gwenembe killing Sikusinja and all the things he took." Eventually Gwenembe was taken to Kachere for Judgment and he was put to death. It is a story with a moral. 'Be sure your sins will find you out!' The bird witness is a constant African Image. "Sikusinja was a rich man. He was killed by his brother Gwenembe. The bird saw himdo it." The accompaniment of a guitar in this kind od story is unsual and a recent innovation only. Nthano story with guitar.
