Ndikakwangare urikavora yaga!

To scratch the surface of the assimilation dynamics of Mulogoli, Avagihayo, who are actually Luo, were grafted as one of the *Musuva* clans.
There is evidence that some of the Avasuva in Vihiga have relatives in Suba, Rusinga Island.

That is how you get names like, *Onam* among the Maragoli. 
_Onam_ in Luo means, he who is from the Lake/Lakeside.
If it was Luhya, the name would be, *Inyanza*

To stir your imagination, the Jaramogi Odinga Odinga family are not Luo.
And that is why that don't use the Luo names like Odhiambo, Onyango, Atieno etc, none of of the sons or daughters of Mzee Jaramogi bear a typical Luo name.
They are rumored to be Avasaniaga.
Odinga is a Luhya name.

This does not equate to the one people used to pull on us about Moi and _umwana wa Amoi_ ...

However, the Odinga family would never want this information to be in the public domain because of the political ramifications in Luoland.

Umulogoli Achamihanji za, vayanze vasuli.

Simeeda ku ilindi Dave, gahele kumunyi avamusomeye ku hano.
Naambuli umundu nahela ku ichova yila, nangwambakane wahugana 😇
