- Description
- The three sections of which this group was formed performed "ukopaseka" at the end of the song. This is the equivalent of the Zulu ukugiya or solo strutting dance done by individuals out in front of the groups to sounds of encouraging cries by their friends. Each young man has his own special cries shouted by his comrades for him whenever he shows off in this manner. Umgubo regimental song.
