Our historian and luhyia music maestro is simply telling us that governments can eat their own children. It happened in Kenyatta regime and is still happening today through exploitative taxes. This music will be a classic for many years.
Why am listening to this its because I love this community and I would really like to settle with a man from here and am in a relationship with one 😘😘😘 I just love all this
My cousin Andieri introduced this song to me as we were taking care of my grandfather's cows in Bunyore. Actually, the Kenyatta I regime had pushed village life to its limits.
Amakuru in those days can be seen today as kanjo this song it's more alive in today's life. Amakuru were enemy of progress back then. Same with kanjo tu.
I have personally experienced and witnessed the underhand and overbearing tactics of the likuros during land and family disputes cases. Rest in Peace Sir Luseno. Your music will forever live on. Cheers.
Great music. Great rendition. "Likuru" is just "Recruit", Luhya pronounciation. Recruits were used to collect hut tax during colonial era, but that continued and got a life of its own post independence when leaders used it to 'eat'.
He is complaining about over taxation. Previously the government via the village elders would collect taxation by forcefully taking chicken or any house items from villagers.
FOR MY INFORMATION THE ORIGINAL LADY VOCALIST IS GETRUDE MWENDO WHO WITH LUSENO FOUNDED THEIR BAND IN 1965, WITH FADHILI WILLIAMS AND ISAYA MWINAMO AS THE ORIGINAL PRODUCERS. "Today, the original Phonetex Band still exists managed by Luseno’s only standing son, Obed Luseno. It still retains Luseno’s vocalists: renowned lady vocalist Getrude Mwendo and Julius Shivachi also known as Itenya.'' ....
