    Thanks for finally featuring my town. Quick correction. The town assuming the name Cuba has nothing to do with the noble ideals of revolution. Rather it has to do with a popular 'holy herb' which I will not reveal😊. The name Gikuni is from a colonial kamba policeman who was very cruel and would often threaten residents with 'gukuna' or beating. They named him Gikuni

      He must be the one who sold out the freedom fighters by revealing if the oppresser wanted to distinguish a Kikuyu from a Kamba is to show an individual a piece of grass.
      The Kamba named the piece of grass "Kaoseki" and they were left free.
      The kikuyus named the piece of grass "Karonyeki" and they were headed to detention to face untold suffering..

      Now I know right. Are sure you have not revealed the herb by refusing to reveal it? hahha. That was very insightful
