THIS IS WHY THE LUO SEPARATED (The history of Wang’ Le) : NYIPIR vs LABONG’O

This a story I captured while in Pakwach. I’m LUO OF KENYA & he’s JONAM. I was in Pakwach for a language comparison but this story got my attention. It entails the WHY & WHERE the luo separated.

    Wajaluo as we called them in Tanzania 🇹🇿 I was born in Tanzania in the 60’s. We had Luo refugees in my hometown( Not many Kenyans know about this) Lous are the most intelligent Africans I’ve met. I was educated by Luo teachers. My Science(Physics, Chemistry and Maths) teacher Mr. Martin Onyango had books saved in his brain, no Google 😂 I live in USA now. I really appreciated what Luo teachers contributed to my academic success.

    I am a Luo from Kenya. Can I know which Luo speaks an easily understood dialect by other Luos and can there be an agreement to adopt one universal Luo Language before we lose our elders with Luo vocabulary? other subsections of Luos can retain their culture but like Kiswahili we can have one language to serve us all. We should not get lost.

Jakom in my video is a Jonam and you can see that most times we could understand each other in luo. However, I find padhola pretty close too. The question on adopting a single dialect is beyond me🙈😊

We all know that ( Gipir) Nyipir and Labongo: A journey into the Acholi and Alur story. Nyipir group went on to form the Alur tribe while Labongo's formed the Acholi. Alur said they are Nyipir while Jonam believed that there are not Alur, yet ( Wang - lei ) the place where Nyipir and Labongo parted ways is in Jonam.

    The Shilluk Kingdom, dominated by the Shilluk people, was located along the left bank of the White Nile river in South Sudan and southern Sudan. Its capital and royal residence were in the town of Fashoda. According to Shilluk folk history and neighboring accounts, the kingdom was founded by Nyikang, who probably lived in the second half of the 15th century. As the only Nilotic people, the Shilluk established a centralized kingdom that reached its apogee in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, during the decline of the northern Funj Sultanate. In the 19th century, the Shilluk were affected by military assaults from the Ottoman Empire, resulting in the kingdom's destruction in the early 1860s. The Shilluk king is currently not an independent political leader, but a traditional chieftain within the governments of South Sudan and Sudan. The current Shilluk king is His Majesty Reth Kwongo Dak Padiet who ascended to the throne in 1993

In future in each one of this locations you can collaborate with locals and ask for support everywhere including online and build modest affordable museums(start with bigger one at WANG'LE), libraries of luo history, language, cultural, with a language center, computer center where younger people can pay to receive language instruction and also learn the history. This sustains the project over time with employed local staff.So for each Luo group museum, cultural center, language center, computer center, business incubation center and office-share.Other local interests can be added based on context.e.g LUO-PADHOLA HISTORY MUSEUM,LUO-ALUR HISTORY MUSEUM etc. And also build business incubation centers with rental office-share support local entrepreneurs in all these locations that you have visited. This sustains the project using local staff. In kenya think of kisumu, homabay, mbita, siaya etc special ancestral locations. Same with UG,TZ,CONGO etc..

    Great 👌..am from Kenya, a place called UGENYA, MASIRO I have been to Uganda, Tororo and happened to meet our luo brothers known as Jo padhola,we managed to chat a lot. There is only a slight difference in our dialect, example (as luos from Kenya 🇰🇪) We call pig 🐖-( anguro) Padhola call pig - ogwang' Where as luos from Kenya (ogwang')is mongoose Luos are fantastic 😊 I just imagine having cultural events happening across all luos from East Africa just like the TESO of Uganda and KENYA always have similar events annually where there leaders come together, last time they were in AMAGORO Kenya and next season it will happen likewise in Uganda.. their king 👑 was known as EMOR MOR.. wonderful experience

I told him 1week till i get better then will move back to Uganda, guess what, he called his staffs and told them, break, dinner bedding don't charge him, i will clear his bills, remember i had pain, i was full of joy, i remember praying for him all the time, when i got better, imargin at the Market mate luos and the guys who resque me, guess what? Given free items for nearly aweek, later moved back to Mombasa boarded Kenyan airway to ebb, i got better, after 2years, i went back to see the hotel manager at voi, i had left for some better job, tried his 4n and failed to connect, that's my small story, thanks to the Luos in kenya, i love you guys and luos at ugunja

    Whoever says that doesn't know the history of the Luo. Langi, by origin, aren't Luo where Luo is taken to mean descendants of Podho and Ramogi. They only speke the Luo language. They're our distant cousins. Lineage wise, they're closer to the Teso, the Karamoja, the Jie, the Masai and the Turkana. The family tree is like this: Kubanga(Ruhanga)(Luhanga), the first known ancestor of the Luo, sired KUKU. KUKU sired SINAKURU and DINKA. SINAKURU sired OKWAT LIELITUK, SULUK( SHILUK)( COLLO), PODHO(1) and ODONGO LANGO. The ancestor of the Langi is OKWAT LELITUK who's also the ancestor of the Maasai, the Teso, the Turkana etc. Odongo Lang'o sired Lengin whose descendants live in Kenya and Uganda and are known as the Kalenjin. The Luo people wherever they may be in Africa descend from PODHO(1).

    @@bobbymeanie818 l get it. The Langi and the Luo are descended from the same man Sinakuru. Sinakuru had several sons. With the first wife he begat Okwat Lielituk ancestor of the Maasai, the Turkana, the Teso etc. With the 2nd wife he begat twins: Podho Koma aka Opiyo and Pok Bon aka Odongo. Podho is the direct ancestor of the Luo. Pok Bon is the direct ancestor of the Langi and the Kalenjin. So, although Langi doesn't directly belong to the Luo nation as it's known today, they're still one people with us. They're our brother. The language, Lepluo, Lebluo, Dheluo and Dholuo etc, therefore, belong to them too but not the direct bloodline. Source, written books some now out of print, oral history and personal research of many years. Don't know whether you had the honour to meet the renowned Luo novelist, Professor Okot P'bitek. In conversations of this nature, he'd always stress this point. His friend, Professor Taban Loliyong' from South Sudan is still alive. He recently launched a book in Kisumu town tracing the history of the Luo from our time in Egypt. Haven't got a hold of this yet, but based on my experience, I get its gist. I'll get a copy in next few days. So should you.

    In dholuo DIT means of medium size. Ruoth madit would mean middle level chief. Ruoth maduong' is the top Chief. Second wife is Nyachira. Third wife is Reru. The rest are Nyiudi ( plural). Nyarot ( singular).

    ​@@KPtravels001dit is also big in Alur. Dwong means much. So Rwoth madit is the big chief. Pi madwong would be much water. Saying Rwoth madwong would sound weird for us and the Acoli too as far as I know
