The Ambuzi

Listening to Lenah, centre, as she narrates the family story

Amuti gave birth to Rivona who gave birth to Kidimu. Kidimu sired Rung'azo and Kibidi. Kibidi is said to have gone to Handidi. Rung'azo is the founder of 11 grand homes of Bugina and Budaywa- Ambuzi, Aluda, Inanga, Nyabera, Mwara, Murimi, Rwane, Bwonya, Jumba, Mbimwa and Misigo. Kinambeti, Vukarika and Ruhunga were their sisters. 

Asking, it is said Bugina and Environ was not the original home of Saniaga. That there was even a time when 'people went back home'. Some to Handidi and others South Maragoli. It should be followed up to know why 'they had left home.'

Where an elder had no sons, he would let the son of a brother to inherit his land. That is why some lands though previously allocated to an elder have now taken the ancestry of another. But modern life has it different when you try to trace the fate of an elder without a son. 

Ahead, Chatamilu does also not look indigenous by the number of Saniaga elders that can be recalled to have grown and died there. It is scanty. The resistant guava tree can suggest the area's recent occupation of prior good grazing fields in the grassy midspots between the guava shrubs. This conclusion however hangs and more elders should be approached to confirm.
