That is the fate of Kidake, a person who could not live around my grandma cause she is terror.  I would want to know ako wapi.  Interesting family tales. 🤓

Peter Kirima: Our people never kept surnames consistently. We adopt second names of our projenitors. still digging. I hope its richard ekidaki

Lung'afa: Who is he to you? And where is he situated?

Peter Kirima: A distant relative on my mothers side....

Lung'afa: Try do some nossy job and let us know...🙈
