Transcript for "A personal confession"

Mumasina bananga bali Sifuna okhwa Okumu.

My name is Sifuna son of Okumu.

Endi omusoleli muechelo omukikayi omusila ng'enda khwitacha.

From the Baechelo and Kikayi clan who are known not to eat a cow with many colours.

Balebe.

My people.

Ese sendi namakali niko ndoma ta lakini nakhasimile khubabolelakho maisha kase ese nga nemenya khusialo khuno.

I don't have much to say but I want to talk about my life in this world.

Nyinga omukekhe olicha enyuma alimanya ali malala si niko nepelamo.

Anyone who comes before me will understand the kind of life I went through.

Nebalomanga bali oli bulayi ata mubangeli baandika bali.

It is even written in the bible.

Ali oyo wetila khwikoso mala kamanya ali nakosile mala kasaba silekhekhelo ata nali khusaba ependenja kasaba mala kanyola silekhelo.

A person who asks for forgiveness after a mistake is a better person.

Ese balebe luno nja khuistoria yase khwama nga nemanya khumanya ndi ese omundu oli khusialo sino na nemenyile limenya liase.

My people, today I want to talk about my history from birth.

Nekali omundu okundi yesi kecha kaloma ali.

Another person said that.

Likanisa lilayi lianjila mumoyo kwoo, lianjila eno.

A good church begins from home.

Ne engo eli waena.

Where is home?

Engo eli kumoyo kwoo nikwo bakhulonga nakwo liba likila wamenya khusialo khuno.

Home is the heart you were created with and your character in this world.

Ese Sifuna oloma yuno.

I Sifuna speaking.

Balebe nenanja khukana kakase malala munyala mulile namwe malala munyala ata mwambelela, lakini salili lilienya liase ta.

My people, if I start talking about my life, you may cry or feel sorry for me but it is not my wish.

Elinga mufano mala nendomaloma ndi nyala naba nekhendomaloma lakini mufano kuno khakuchila, ndinga wenya khugusakho chingoba fulani khumanya khumanya nakhumenye namwe khulinde babana befwe khungo khuno.

I want to give an example on how we should take care of our children on this world.

Ese.

I.

Khumenya nama khusoma.

I have lived and studied.

Lakini ndome ndi.

But I will say that.

Khuloba khuba nende khutekelesiana ndoma ndi chifamili chingali khachimenye khumanya.

To be open, I want to say that many families should live knowing.

Abana babwe omwana akonanga musimba namwe omwana amenyile wae.

Where their children live or sleep.

Khuakikisia mbo omwana yuno acha esikuli.

To ensure that that child goes to school.

Alia mubise bienyekhane.

The child eats at the right time.

Akoile mumasa kenyekhane.

They sleep at the right time.

Khukhola abundu khwanja khurera lawama khubana befwe.

We should not reach apoint and start blaming our children.

Khubindu namwe khwole abundu okile oli wenya khuchuba omwana khubikhwolwa ouka oli omwana kakosile lakini khane aba ewe sawamung'onela kumusingi kwewe kwaba kumulayi ta.

You should not blame a child for a mistake they did as a result of your poor upbringing.

Omwana efwe sai chino omwana yesi ali busa nga niye waya busa niye waya busa nga nawaya ekhanu namwe waya engokho.

Currently, a child has to be looked after like a cow or the chicken.

Okhaloma khubela engokho eyo nokilekhile yacha yalia biakhulia mwajirani solaloma oli engokho niyo echile ta, kumurungo niwe olakurunga.

You are the one who will pay the fine when you let your chicken tresspass to your neighbors farm and not the chicken.

Ese.

I.

Ndoma ndi khungo khuno yama khukila ata nenga historia yase nekhenanja khukilosiakho ndi.

I want to start talking about my history on this world.

Ata balebe kaba nawabira esisomelo.

If you went to school.

Wacha wetilakho khusitabu sia John Kiriamiti, ata John Kiriamiti kabakho kayikayi khokho.

If you read John Kiriamiti's book, he was even better.

Khubela mumaisha niko mbiriremo.

Because the life I have gone through.

Nali bali omubukusu ndi nebung'ali mbo sirekere siefwe.

As a Bukusu I am sure that in our village.

Nali omundu okhacha esukulu ta, yaani okhacha kesenda name kola muyunivasiti, balala mbara bali bolanga mubiikuli biangaki.

If it was a person who didn't study to university or finish school.

Bakelao bali, wakala namwe ebaati ekila nio, nio anina endeke.**

They fly by luck.

Lakini nono sirekere siefwe namwe neli etauni yefwe nali omundu wanyoa kaninakho endeke mala ata okhacha esukulu ta naba esese.

I was the first person in my village who boarded a plane without going to school.

Nowicha nga mufamili siefwe.

When you come to our family.

Ndio onyola bandu baisoma, yaani khendomaloma maisha kano mala khusome omundu kamekhomo nende elomo enyala yakila kamanya mbo limenya lino khumenya khuriena khusialo khuno.

We should study and get some lessons on how to live in this world.

Ese nase balala banina chindeke khubela busomi.

Others board planes because they are educated.

Balala banina chindeke khubela banyolile misaada.

Some board planes because they have received donations.

Balala banina chindeke khubela mbo khunyola bindu fulani bikila banine chindeke echo.

Some board planes because of several reasons.

Lakini ese balebe khubolela ndi sitabu siase sikhila sia John Kiriamiti, nanina endeke khubela khubukora bwase nende kamakesi kase.

I tell you, my book is better than that of John Kiriamiti, I boarded a plane because of my malicious deeds and brains.

Ese.

I.

Yama khwamayo kumwaka fulani.

There was a certain year.

Nenjile musikulikho namalile ekilasi ya munane.

After completing class eight.

Aba nja endi mukilasi ya kumi na mbili.

I was going to form two.

Esuku ndala naba balebe oli, khubela sanaba omusasi noyilile omwana esukuli omanya omwana esukulu alasomanaga namwe alabechangakho wesi nocha nokendelelakho omwana.

As parents, when you should care whether your child is at school by checking on the child.

Omwana asomanga namwe sasomanga ta, kolanga esukulu namwe ta, sendi bali naba omusilu ta.

If the child gets to school and studies or no, it is not that I was a fool.

Ese omukesi mala kamakesi niko kakila paka nemenye sai chino mala kamakesi kase ndi nekamakesi kamalayi nekamakesi kano ata efamali enyoa emanya namwe lukoba luno lunyoa lumanya kamakesi kase andi lwaikarumikhila mala andi khwayikhola bindu bilayi.

I am extremely clever and that is the reason I am still living, we would be far as a family if they would have identified how clever I am much earlier.

Lakini bakalekha mpaka nakara munafasi ekindi ekhenyekhana tawe.

But they left me use my brains the wrong way.

Ese nendi mukilasi yakhabili.

When I was in form two.

Esuku ndala niko ndoma ndi basasi nonyola basasi balala chingoba echindi nayila omwana esukulu khubela omwana yuno kamwayile khwama engo, ndio wakhakile omwana kolile mukilasi ya kumi na mbili.

Parents should try to take care of their children even at form two level.

Wola engo wacha wamanya omwana yuno alichichanga esukuli namwe salachichanga esukuli ta.

When at home, you should find out whether your child goes to school or not.

Kali omundu baloma muli khucha khubona omwana ebikuli.

Like someone talked about visiting the child at school.

Omanye omwana yuno atambile mafura, omwana yuno ali na.

You should know whether the child has the oil and what they don't have.

Ali namuswaki kuwele, kumuswaki bebile namwe bakholile sina.

Does the child has the toothbrash or it was stolen.

Lakini nono nokhalolndelele ta olakelao omwana woo yuno kumuchuli khuno oba oli bise fulani onyola.

But if you don't follow up, you may regret later.

Omwana woo wanja khunyola mbo sikholwa fulani silakholanga omwana noloma oli omwana wase kanjile khuba omubi.

You will begin blaming your child when they start to misbehave.

Lakini khamulololele bulayi chifamili chingali mbo kamakoso sakanyala kaba komwana yuno ta.

But when you look closey at many families, you may realise it is not the child's mistake.

Nali omuswaili kakelao karayo kaloma ali.

A swahili person once said that.

Kola abundu kecha kaloma ali, "mtoto akililia wembe mpe"

He said, "if a child cries over a razor blade, you should give it to him/her"

Nomwana yuno.

And this child.

Nono balebe.

So my people.

Nenila anyuma.

If I go back.

Ese nenaba musisomelo mukilasi ya kumi na mbili yino.

When I was in form two.

Onyola mbo, endalo yabayo ndala.

There was one day.

Neli lukoba fwefwe wakala bamanyile bali omwana bamuyila musikulu, mala abele nacha musikulu silayi sana.

My family knew I was at school, I had been taken to a good school.

Esikuli siase abele nacha, bikuli ao chisuku bifumakho abele bikulu nga Chesamisi, Bokoli, bikuli bali Bungoma High, ekibabi.

The well known schools at that time were Chesamisi, Bokoli, Bungoma High and Kibabi.

Mala nacha sikulu sa silayi nabira nekamakisi kamalayi.

I went to a good school because I scored good marks.

Lakini khubela khwikhochacha khuno esuku ndala naba nelukhe owasiange khuli nebanbasie mala bambukula bali khuche waena, bali khwechile half term yabwe eyeyo.

But because of my chicky behavour, I joined my friends during the half term break.

Khwaba oli khulingo naloma ndi nje wae.

I decided to go somewhere while at home.

Ndi njee bali khuchaa, khubela nakhuchile musiulukho nio mukalukhayo muche esukulu khwaba mbo khwachile kumukatano aundu.

We had gone for a meeting somewhere during the break.

Mala kumutano kuno kwaba kwe bukhino nio.

It was a dance meeting.

Mutauni yefwe ye Bung'oma

In our Bungoma town.

Nama khunyolayo.

I found.

Khubela ewe noli maisha niko oli muklasi ya kumi na mbili, norura engo olinga wamile mwitala abundu mala wamile noli nenjala khocha ocha enje wenya oche waye.

Because when you are in form two and you get outside, you look like someone who has come from a cattle shed somewhere and you will be hungry to graze.

Yama khuba oli khwikhala.

After we sat down.

Khuli khunywa khunywakho khubela nochile khukhina paka wa Sokisi wepelakhoyo kidogo.

We were drinking because you have to drink at Sokisi's place while dancing.

Obona mbo.

You will see that.

Nanyolana nende.

I realised that.

Embakha niyo khwaba nekhupa.

The story we were conversing.

Basakhulu abandi baba nebakhelekho abundu ao.

There were other men seated near.

Mala embara muliba liase, yaani lilombela mbo.

I thought in my mind.

Alikhoo mundu wamanya ali omwana yuno wakala alikho nekamakesi fulani namurukhila, enda nyola sianabulebe namwe sia abumali esio.

There was a person who realized I was clever and they would achieve anything if they used me.

Khwaba oli khwekhale.

As we were seated.

Oli khupa embakha nabona wa Sokisi bandasakhoyo.

They added me drinks from Sokisi as we were having a conversation.

Babene bailanga bali chi beer chiabwe chino naywakho chola chitaru chio naba omusakhulu mulala.

They call it beer themselves, I took three beers and I was called by one old man.

Khungo khuno kabakho kaifwa, kamanga khubukembe bamulanganga bali Kamandura.

Who died, he used to come from Bukembe, they used to call him Kamandura.

Omusakhulu omukikuyu.

A Kikuyu elder.

Kama khwamayo nenda aba sakaloma ali wase musoleli.

He came over and called me, "boy"

Ali lola ewe wupa embakha muno.

He said, "I have heard you have a conversation"

Ali wama khupanga embakha nga yenywe musikulu,mala khwaba khulapangakho oli chimbakha oli chefwe nicho kupanga musikuli lakini kabanyile khale ali narumikhila ng'eneyo.

He was using the story about school that we were having.

Kakira alala nende ekasi yewe niye akhola yino.

If he used that story in connection to his work.

Namwe enganakani niyo ali yino enyala yamusalilakamatunda niko kenyile.

Or maybethe thougt he had would bear him the fruits the he wanted.

Yaba oli kekhala nekandanga kaloma ali nenya ndomalomakho nawe.

He sat down and called him to have a talk with him.

Naba kambolela aoo ali.

He told me that.

Kaba nomusecha okundi na omusecha yuno amubolela ali mala omusecha yuno alikho nembakha fulani kenyile omuyetekhokho.

He was with another man requested for my help.

Naba omusecha yuno kecha kambolela alii.

This man came and told me that.

Kambolela ali wase esese ndi nende emwani.

He told me that he had a goods.

Nemwani yino ali kamapesa kamali ewe olenyanga nabone, osomanga khubela khwachile.

He said, "the goods are for a lot of money, are you a student?"

Abene bayilanga bali chidisco chiabwe chino senenya nimayisie mbo ese endi omusomi ta.

Since they call it discos themselves, I didn't want to be known that I was a student.

Naloma ndi ta esese ndi busa musibala muno.

I said was just in the area.

Nekholakho busa bibisara basie kidogokidogo.

That I was doing small business.

Ali nenyile onyete lola wama khupanga embakaha nenyile unjete ese emwani yase eli aundu.

He said, "I heard you talk and I need your help concerning my goods which are somewhere"

Nemwali yino omndu okirere ali omusibayi fulani ali khungo khuno.

It is a leader from this rregion that has brought the goods.

Mala kheyama ebukanda khecha mukenya, mala emwani yino nekhola mukenya ta..

"They were coming from Uganda to kenya, and before the goods gets in Kenya"

Eliyo ingila niyo nenyile mbisisliemo mpaka emwani yino elolekhe mbo eyase niyo.

" There is a way I want it the goods pass through to look like they belongs to me"

Nakhubele mbo ebirere lakini eli nende lideni, kumutoka kusutile omwana yuno.

"And because I am in debt with the car transporting the goods"

Kuli kwe kampuni fulani.

It belongs to a certain company.

Ekampuni yino kherera emwani yino mala khane banywechanga kamafutra ko mutajiri okundi musibala muno mala abele bakhalipa lideni ta khubela ali nekimitoka kino kimikali nikio.

The company transporting the goods had so many transport vehicles and was owed by the other wealthy person who had not cleared with them.

Kiama khuba oli kamapesa katuba kanina naba mbo kwaba mbo kuruka kumupaka nebakutila.

The vehicle was held while crossing the boarder after the amount had accumulated.

Baloma mbo bali kulipe kulala kuno bakutile mpaka kulilipa kamafura kano kwanza nio bakhole barie, bakulekhule kuche, nono aba kulinga kulipile kikindi kino kiosi.

They said they were to release the other vehicle after clearing the initial debt.

Abane bailoma mbo enywebwa abele rekampuni eyeyo elipe chimilioni chitaru che kamafura.

They wanted that company to pay three million for the oill.

Nono mala kwasutile emwani eli mukari muno eli ye chimilioni saidi ya kui na sita.

The vehicle had carried goods worth sixteen million.

Nono kaloma ewewe nokhola nisio olakhuyeta sili sindu silala siong'ene.

He said, "you will help us with only one thing"

Onyala wakhuwakho kamakesi kekhumanya oli.

"Would you give us ideas that can"

Khunyala khwafungula khuriena okundu kuno.

"How we can open this thing"

Khubela wama khuloma oli musikulu mwenywe muno oli okholanga chemistry.

"Because you said you study chemistry in your school"

Onyala wakhuyeta orie nekhuche khufungule okundu kuno nekulola ebung'oma.

"How can you help us open this thing and will it get to Bungoma.

Mala kang'ali khumakesi kase nome nandi omundu okundi kamba ta, nabolela basakhulu nandi kamapesa kaliyo?

With my own brains, I asked the old men if they had the money.

Bali kamapesa kanyolekhana.

They said money was there.

Kamapesa nama khukelayo khwapa bambelesia epulani ng'ene , nono nisio mukhola enywe muchuli khamwiche mumbukule khuche njeke eturela eyo niyo eli.

They gave me the plan and we agreed to meet the following day to go and check on the trailer.

Mala abele eksai eyo mubung'ali.

To be honest about that job.

Nemuliba liase kang'ali abele ekhalikholakho ta lakini khulome khuli liba liekhuba omunyindafu khwenya khukhola sindu.

I had never done such a job but I had the confidencer to do something.

Nama khwamayo nama khucha khwola Malaba khumupaka kwa Uganda nende Kenya oli khwolayo nabona kuturela okwene.

We reached Malaba which is the boarder between Uganda and Kenya, I saw the trailer when we arrived.

Nese nja mbabolela ndi sisindu siliyo.

I told them what was to be done.

Nabone kukundu lakini khukalukhe khuche khwikhale asi khumanye khwanjila waena esitepu ya kwanza khulacha waena.

That I had seen the trailer but we were to sit down and know the steps we were to follow.

Eeh khabili khulesenda waena.

Where we shall go to next.

Naba oli khwecha khwekhala muoteli ndala mutauni omwo naloma ndi nesindu sibofu kwanaza.

I told them the most important thing when we sat down in a hotel in town.

Kuturela kuno kurure Malaba kwiche wae, kwiche ebung'oma ewefwe.

The trailer should come out of Malaba to Bungoma our place.

Nekali linyalikhana aba.

If it was possible, we would.

Khumanye nekhukufungula, nabenda bali nekhufungula, chinjala sachilanyolekhanakho.

We should know how to open it, they asked me "Won't the finger prints remain when we open it?"

Nocha khukufungula khubela barechangakho nebikofulo biabwe nibio omundu okhanyala waandululakho ta.

It will be difficult to open it because of the strong locks they use to lock.

Na ata wakhaba bali oandululakho, bakesikesi be sibala sino siosi sitala kamakhuwa kamakali oba oli wolayo nebecha wakana banyola chinjala choo mbo niwe ofungule kukundu kuno.

Even if you open carefully, there are intelligent ways they will find your fingerprints.

Bandeba bali khukhola khuriena.

They asked me what we were to do.

Nese khubela nende chemistry niyo nakholakho abele esukulu wase kidogo namanya ndi nobukula sulphuric acid.

Because of my chemistry knowlwdge at school, I knew if you take sulphuric acid.

Wachanganya nende kamalwa kefwe niko khunywa khuli tusker kano.

And mix it with tusker the alcohol we drink.

Nochanganya wabula kidogo, khucha khufungula khubukule khasumeno khaliyo nikho bakhalilanga, babene balanga bichuma biabwe bino bali stainless steel.

After mixing, we would use a metal they call stainless saw to cut.

Akhenakho khong'ene nikho khakhala mala sokhanyola, bukusi bwakho buli nebukusi tofauti, akhenakho nikho khanyala khkhala sichuma sirio.

That is the only one that can cut the metal but it is too expensive.

Sakhekhalakho ta, olamala khwakhala.

It won't stay long, after we cut it.

Khulakhola khuriena, khulacha khubukule niyo likofulo niyo lili khuche khureyo khurumikhile esindu basikusia mumaduka balanga bali araldite.

We shall put araldite where the padlock will be.

Araldite netila abundu ao esili eyeyo somanya oli.

You know when araldite gets in contact with the seal.

Somanya oli okhala omala nochukhayo sulphuric acid niyo ochanganyile nende.

You cut and pour the sulphuric acid and the tusker mixture which will make it rust in few minutes.

Nata niyo otilile kali oabasiekho abundu, otililenge khukuduramu kuno.

And if you mistakenly touched anywhere on the drum.

Elolekhana mbo chi finger prints choo aba wenyosiekho, wafutile omundu salamanya ali omundu fulani okholile ta, bakhecha bapima.

You fingerprints will be invisible when they come and check.

Eng'eneyo yaba mbo, eng'eneyo eli.

That was.

Esitepu ndala niyo khukholile khwakira kando.

One step we shall have completed.

Engila yebweni khwakirere kando.

The first step was complete.

Khwaloma khuli neyekhabili, nekukundu kuno nakhucha khufungula, khulakufungulila wae?

The second step, we wondered how we had to open it.

Khwikhole khuli efwefwe abandu bachichanga nebatisia ebindu.

We were pretend that we were the people who auction things.

Bikhola bierana, yaani omundu nali nende lideni lio omundu khuyila, biliyo bikampuni babilalanganga bali auctioners otila sindu sio otisia abwenao mbo beche balipe lideni kwanza.

The companies that auction loan defaulters.

Khwacha khwaloma nende maneja mulala waba abwenao.

We went and talked to one manager who was there.

Nebakholile ekwokwa yekhucha khutila kutoka kuno, khwalomaloma naye mala yesi khubela khuloma khuli omundu yesiyesi khusibala khuno.

We had a talk with him after they had made plans to hold the trailer.

Sai chino khwakhaloma khuli kakhaba khwa Kenyatta yesi naulila kamapesa khubela onwami, kamapesa kaliyo mpaka omundu alakhola sikholwa esio.

Right now even the son of Kenyatta in power will do anything for money.

Khwama khukelao kwaloma nende omundu wa mutauni muno yabechanga khale bali Kuronyi auctioners.

We later went a talked to someone from Kuronyi auctioners.

Khwalomaloma naye khwacha kakubaliya ali alikhacha khukhwesa okundu okwo bakurere ebung'oma.

We talked with him and he agreed to pull the trailer to Bungoma.

Nebakurerire ebung'oma khuli nende raisi mbo omundu nekhunyala khwalomaloma wa karibu onyala kakhuyeta mpaka nga khwicha khufungula khuyime kutirela okundi kwosi kwiche, kwiche kiambanane bibuno.

It will be easy to get help from Bungoma and look for another trailer to attach together.

Nono aba nabakenda mukari kuno somanya oli bandu khababukula emwani, khubela khumanyile khuli nekhubukula khuli khucha nakwo balakhureba bali kukundu kuno khakubira lundi balakutila lundi.

They will take the goods if they walk inside and if we went with them, they will suspect and hold it again.

Khulolele kuturera kukundi nikwokhunyala khwaramo emwani mala kuyile abundu niyo khwenya khucha khukusia.

We had to look for another trailer we could put the goods and transport to the place we were to make the sale from.

Aba lundi khupa Narobi khwenya khumanye Narobi nanu bakulanga emwani.

We called someone in Nairobi to know those who buy the goods.

Mala emwani yaba ye ebei endayi.

The goods had a good price.

Baba oli bapa esabu khunyola mbo emwani eyo yong'ene kenyekha bakhuwelesie chimilioni kumi na sita.

From the calculations, we realized thay had to pay us 16 million from the goods.

Khusoko niyo khuloma khuli, lelo omundu khunyala khwaloma khuli soko khuru, niyo omundu wamwene oparire mala mwaulilisiana.

In the open market where you bargain and agree.

Yaba oli khukalukha asi.

When we went back.

Khwaloma khuli nono sakhunyala khwabukula emwani yino.

We decided that we were not to take the goods.

Wakati eyo khwabechanga nende DC wefwe wabechanga mungo muno bamulanga bali Changole.

Those days we had our region District Commissioner (DC) who was called Changole.

Bali Cheng'oli.**

He was called Cheng'oli.

DC yuno waloma khuli ewewe, nono ewewe kamapesa kali aundu lakini khukhusaba khubela orumikhila libwonge bwonge lilindi khucha khutila libonge bonge lilindi.

We told the DC about the money because you use another boss to get to another boss.

Khwaloma khuli wakati eyo bitoka biosi bisili khungo khuno babilanga bali bakhindira, abele bechile nibio khubonanga muchifilimu chefwe chino bali cha India chino baba babirerire wakati eyo niyo bili musibala muno.

Those days the mahindra vehicles that appeared in Indian movies were the ones used.

Khwaloma khuli esindu sibofu sa sakali mbo litoka lino bali licha khutima namwe licha khutila omundu tawe.

The most important thing we thought about is the vehicle was not supposed to help in arresting someone.

Lakini khulasabanga khuli ewe DC aba khokhubirira.

But we begged the DC to help us.

Khulibwongwe bongwe lilindi liosi liliyo liche lilomalome ne DC.

We used another boss to talk to the DC.

DC alomalome nende OCS walome sa mbo litoka lino licha khwima abundu sa aoo akuturera okwokwo kulolekhane mbo basakari bosi balabechanga, omundu nabira naloma ali eeh.

DC will talk to the OCS (Officer in Charge police Station) to organize for a peaceful process.

Nebabandu banu aba sakhababukula aba emali yino, aba omundu salikhuba nende liyaya alome ali khabeba namwe ta.

Nobody will doubt that the goods was being stolen.

Lakini mubung'ali khwaba khakhwiba emwani yabene niyo khukhamanyile yananu niyo ta.

But it was true we were stealing someone's goods.

Lakini DC kecha yaani litoka limeyo busa khamakhindira khano abandu boosi basikari befwarire chinanu, chi uniform.

But the DC and the police in uniform would watch over as we use the Mahindra vehicle.

Nono omundu nabira.

When a person passes.

Nechingubo chabwe chibasikari chino.

With their police uniforms.

Omundu nabira,aloma ali aa.

A person would assume when they pass by.

Chindangunywe chosi chili ano eyino sasifwa sindu siebubwifi nisio khabeba ta.

"Since the police are here, it means they are not stealing"

Lakini obwo bwaba obwifwi bwabwa ata nibwo omundu yesiyesi okhanyala kakanakana khwiba ta.

But that was a high class theft.

Khubela mwakalukhe asi mpaka mwang'onile.

Because we had made plans from scratch.

Ekokwe lundi, nemwenya khucha muche mukone lundi mung'one embosi lundi mumanye mui mwinyokhela khuli lala si.

A group of people that had made plans for the next day.

Yaba oli endalo eyo yola.

When that day came.

Khwamanyile khuli esoko kwakinyolile.

We knew we had found the market.

Kwamayile khuli eliyo kutoka kwicha khubukula elindi, kwicha khubuka emali yino khwakunyolile kwosi kuli karibu.

We knew the trailer that was to come and pick the goods was close.

Khwecha khuyima khuli, kwaulilisiana nende abele omusibayi waba muno bali Changolo oyo.**

We had an agreement with the leader who was here called Changolo.

Bali kafukilila ali acha khwimelela abwenao ebe nga yaani omundu nabira akhamanya ali, akhaba neliyaya ali khabeba esinanu ta.

He agreed to watch over so that people would not suspect that there was theft.

Kakhuwelesia khatoka khabao nikho khwalanganga bali makhindira akhakho.

He gave us a Mahindra vehicle.

Nende chindangunywe, bakhuwa chindangunywe chitaru.

They gave us three police officers.

Mala aba kuturera kuno khuche khukurere etauni yebung'oma kwabechanga abundu khurerwe emwalo balanga Kuronyo auctioners mukona.

We took the trailer down close to the railway a place called Kuronyi auctioners at the corner.

Yama khuba balebe oli bise biola.

My people, when time came.

Efwe wakaa bise ebiebio naunyola.

When you found me such time.

Ese okhwa Okumu somanya oli ese omusomi ta mala nelukhe yaani khwechile musiulukho kenyakhana jumatatu abele ngalukhe esukulu mala ekasi yino khakhukikhola jumamosi.

I the son to Okumu will not be idenfied as a student, we were to do the job on Saturday because I had to go back to school on Monday.

Nese ekhatilakho chisilingi busa, chisilingi busa bali chielefu sa chirano chase mumufuko ta.

I had never held five thousand shillings in my pocket.

Mala bandikile bali ewe nokhola ekasi yino nelaba endayi sana khabacha khukhuwa enusu ye milioni.

Yet they had peomised me half a million if I did a good job.

Nesenamanya ndi abele ebweni eyo bale bano khabacha khunyola mapesa sina ta.

I didn't know how much money these guys were going to earn at the end.

Wakati yicha esuku yakwanza abele ese musomi mala khanikhala nende DC wakwanza musibala muno.

I was the first student to seat with the first DC in this region.

Khwikhala mala yesi kakubalia kabali kutoka kuno kucha khwima aoo.

We sat down and he also agreed that the trailer was to stop there.

Nefwarire kamajaketi kali khungo khuno bali kekamasielo niko bapanga erangi.

I had dressed up in an animal skin jacket painted in colour.

Lilie bei ese.

An expensive one.

Esiro sana, naumbona aundu naumbona nacha nachenja lichune liase narakho erangi.

Extremely expensive with my hair dyed.

Abene lelo bailanga bali edayi.

The call it dye nowadays.

Naumbona kano sendolekhana kang'ali sendolekhana, sefwana omukenya ta, nalolekhane omuzaire.

I was looking like a Zaire person and not a Kenyan.

Mala omundu nakhabira ndoma ndi , efwefwe khwechile khubadilisha busa emali yino khubela kutoka kuno bakutilile khwenya khubadilishe khure mwitoka elindi khuche khukusie emwani.

If a person asked I would say we were just changing the goods because the vehicle had been held.

Nakhwiche khukalusie khukhole khurie, khwiche khusikule kutoka okundi kuno.

For us to come back take the trailer.

Nono khwichao khulomaloma luswaili nolubona ouka oli bazaire.

We would come speaking Swahili like the people fro Zaire.

Mala bung'ali kanga'ali wele kamba, nesula ndi wele kamba, karibu kenga khumba buli sindu.

To be honest I thank God for almost giving me everything.

Oba nenenya khulomaloma luzaire nyala nalomalomakhomo kidogo, kabirirakhomo kario.

I would speak a few Zairian language.

Nenja muluswaili enyala narakhomo lwe lutazania rwabirirakhomo.

If I speak Swahili,I can say some Tanzania words.

Nono nemimao nendomaloma omundu naliyo wakana aloma ali, nono ndabolelanga bandu khomuarakishe bwangu sana khwenyebwa khuyile emwalo eyi.

I will be making orders asking people to coperate for us to transport the goods.

Litoka lino kenyekha likalukheyo liche likhole khuche khusikule, bano balio mbo abano basela bebene bechile khusikula kukundu kwabwe.

The vehicle was to be returned back and the owners would have come to pick their goods.

Bali babona enje nemilekho nechindangunywe khupakho chimbakha baloma bali kang'ali khane oyuno kechile nechindangunywe.

They would know I came with the police since I would be outside talking to them.

Ata ngelakhoo nekulakho litoka lie chindangunywe nikholakho nimakho nabukula kamalwa kase nenywakho nipakho kumukapo kulala kibili.

I would sit in the police vehicle and take a sip of my alcohol.

Ngendakho nimakho eyi omundu aloma busa ali basi abano bazaire abene.

People would believe I was from Zaire as I walked around.

Yamakhuba oli basoleli becha khwacha eetoli mutauni ye bung'oma bali Keringeti.

We went to a hotel called Keringeti in Bungoma town.

Basutanga kamakuni, abwenao basoleli bamanya khusuta kamakunia bulayi.

There are boys who know how to carry bags there.

Babukulakho chidaka chinga omusoleli ketiukha bikunia biakhaba binga khubela bino bino biabechanga bie chikilo eshirina tano ishirina tano, atunga ata bibili.

The boy would take few minutes to carry two 25 kg bags.

Nio olomele aa muturela bamalilemo khale.

They will be done within minutes from thr trailer.

Bakholile bario nono ekasi yase eba khwikhala asi mala khwanja khuchora nga nebabolele nga nenja khupangusia kunani kuno.

My job will be to sit down and tell them how I will clean the trailer.

Nekhupangusia.

To wipe it.

Khane kumwinyawe kuno khane bakikuyu be sibala sino.

This game has been played by Kikuyu's in this world.

Khane chingila chenecho nicho bebelanga bandi echemoi.

Apparently those are the ways they steal from people Chimoi.

Onyola mbo kuturela kukwile.

You find that a trailer has fallen.

Namwe emali bakhubukule mala bila khumanya emali yino echile eriena.

Or they can take goods from you without you knowing how.

Nono balebe.

So my people.

Yaba oli khuchenja okundu kuno.

After we changed the trailer.

Emwani yino khwamala nakhulekha kuno anano nefwe khukufunga nakhubukula nende kibayo, nono omusikari kakhaba nakhulondakho.

We would leave it there after getting the goods just incase the police will follow us.

Alauka ali namwe omwene mwani nakulondakho amanya ali kuturela okwo kwafwa kwaba kurio.

The fgoods owner would still think that was their trailer.

Nekhane emwani yarura mukari mwonomu, becha bakunyola bakufunga mala khane kwarama busa aoo nekhane emwani yacha khale.

But it will be an empty trailer just closed and left there.

Kwaba ano niyo khucha khwola sibala.

When we left to another place.

Sibala oli sie semi.

A seminary place.

Babene bali sie bakhulundu sie Mabanga.

They refer to it as a priest area in Mabanga.

Khwingila mundaa lundi khwabadilisha lundi.

We changed again when we went to to the bush.

Khwara muturela ekindi kwe khataru.

We put in the third trailer.

Nono aba okwo nikwo kucha narobi, nende security omusoleli naunyola khuli bulayi.

That was the one going to Nairobi, I was working well with the security team.

Oli khwola munarobi balebe.

My people, when we arrived in Nairobi.

Baba oli bamba kamapesa naloma ndi pebebebebe!

I was shocked when they gave me the money.

Nono lwa kwanza aba bamba chielefu mia tatu arubaini.

The gave me three hundred and forty thousand.

Naloma ndi nesi sibaye babandu khuima kimiandu.

I said to myself, now we are looking for wealth.

Nono khane kamabonga bonga kase khabanyolamo kamakali, nono ese nembonakho chisendi echo ese namanya ndi baye nolile karibu mwikulu.

Surprisingly my bosses were earning more than me yet with the little they gave me,I felt like I was in heaven.

Bakelao oli bamba kamapesa akako.

When they gave me that money.

Baloma bali akandi khabakhurerera, yasikale kamapesa koo chielefu mia moja sitini.

They told me that they were bringing the balance of one hundred and sixty thousand.

Chingile inusie emilimo.

To get to almost half a million.

Senenya khwikhebukha ta lakini aba mbukula kamatoka kandi khwaloma khuli khukalukha wae, khukalukha khuche ebung'oma.

I didn't want to look back but it was because we had other cars that is why we decided to go back to Bungoma.

Nenya nole ebung'oma bwangu.

I wanted to arrive in Bungoma very fast.

Chisa echo nembara eli etwaya endayi yakholiokha mubung'oma naba ese.

I believe I was the first cock that crew in Bungoma.

Mala nekhama munarobi ta balebe abele nibilile.

I had forgotten, before I left Nairobi.

Khaba oli ata oli lilo lialoba ata khundila.

I didn't get any sleep.

Lakini mala busia asubui kenyekha mbe nekhukalukha.

I was supposed to leave early morning.

Nenakanakana ndi ne ebung'oma nja khukenda ndiena.

I thought of how I was to operate in Bungoma.

Khubela bano basilikhoyo, basilikhoyo nese ndoma nende wasiange okundi khwaloma khuli khuche ebung'oma khubela mumukanda okwo khwabamo karibu kwe babandu sita kuri.

Me and my colleague decided decided to back to Bungoma, we were a group of six.

Nenya khwola ebung'oma khangu naba kamakesi kechamo ndoma ndi nacha nekaba ndanina mubasi kamapesa kano banyala banjiba.

I wanted to arrive in Bungoma fast, I then realized they will steal the money from me in a bus.

Nekali wele kamba bulamu sa bwong'ene nole ebung'oma, nenya nole nekapesa kase kano buli mundu akabonekho.

I wanted God to protect me to arrive safe in Bungoma for everyone to see it.

Kweli oli nacha khusoko ya Gikomba busia asubui bandu bacha khukula chingubo, senakula chingubo Gikomba ta.

I went to Gikomba market early morning but not to buy the clothes.

Nacha naima ching'eni chindayi Gikomba.

I looked for good fish in Gikomba.

Chimbisi nende sikapu nisio balosi bachilangamo erundo.

Raw fish and a basket that women use for the market.

Nakalukha muteli yase niyongonangamo.

I went back to the hotel I had spend the night.

Naara ching'eni chino akarikari nekhawembe nembukula lisakanyi lie chielefu khamusini nempangamo nempangamo nempanga mung'eni nempanga mung'eni.

I split the fish in the middle using a razor blade and kept a bundle of fifty thousand shillings in between.

Nono naunyola khustriti sawenya wisende karibu niyo ndi ta khubela khembunya ching'eni kabisa.

You would run away from me on the streets because I was really smelling fish.

Mala nenya khwola musitesheni sitesheni sie etex niyo nenyekhana ningililemo nini nje ewefwe elufwosi.

I was almost getting to the bus station to my home.

Yama khuba oli lianina necha.

When I started the journey.

Sisala siase niyo nikhale omundu sakekomba kekhaleyo ta khubela khembunya eng'eni nga eng'eni neyimbunyilengekho.

Nobody wanted to sit close to me because of the smell from the fish.

Mala khane nasutile khane kamapesa.

But I had carried the money.

Yakhaba oli mungo muno balebe.

My people when I arrived at this home.

Ebung'oma.

In Bungoma.

Nola wakati eyo maayi wase nasilio omulamu.

That time my mother was still alive.

Senamubolelekho ta.

I had not told her.

Nacha nekhala asi.

I went and sat down.

Nabukula naloma ndi nenya khwisingakho nacha nesinga.

I went to have a bath.

Nabukula nara muoteli eli ao, nekhala muoteli eli ao nalanga maayi ndi mayi.

I sat in a hotel around and called my mother over.

Ese ndi nakamapesa akasi njilenge omusecha aruranga acha khuima.

I told her I had made some money from working hard as a man.

Nenayimile maayi ese mbona ndi sikekhe nisio oli nasio mumbe enganakani mala emenye.

I asked her to advice me on what to do.

Munjeta murie.

How will you help me?

Niko ndoma ndi basasi.

That is why I say, the parents.

Basasi wakati, bise ebio bia ndi ne maayi.

That time my mother was a live.

Maayi kaloma ali mwana wase, eli bulayi wakala eli enganga ewe wanyoilile kamapesa kano khayo yekhalilikha khuche polepole.

My mother adviced me to take it slowly with the money.

Khukhole khurie, khuyetane.

For us to help one another.

Mala kalikhuyeta, naulila lia maayi.

"And it will help you" I listened to my mother.

Lakini bali khubela sisa skhulimo.

But because of being a sympathetic person.

Mala eli sa bulayi bwene nekuli kumusambwa omundu kakhaloma ali okhabina ta namwe, ocha wabina.

It is the same like a spirit, when you are told not to be a night runner, you will still run.

Yama khukelao nanyola ndi khubela semanya nendi linba liase namwe nende sise esio mwise.

I don't know if it was because of my sympathetic character.

Nabona ndi.

I decided to.

Owasiange aliyo wakala babandu wakala babesendakho bali abweni nalolamo owasiange.

I decided to engage my elder brothers.

Ali mulala aloma ndi wase yicha khukhole khuriena.

I engaged him on what we could do.

Yinja wase ese nakendilekho wakala khuwekho sikekhe sili oche wiyetekho.

I called him over to give him some help.

Bise ebio yaba owasiange naye kabeyisie naye.

By that time my brother had married.

Naloma ndi khayekhuwekho bisilingi bikekhe bili ano oche wiyete, samubolela ta ndi yicha khubone.

I told him I wanted to offer him some little money.

Nese nanja khufungula ching'eni chino nenanja khumwata enje kamapesa khwekhale naye murumu khuli fweng'ene babili.

We were the two of us in the room when I started opening the fish and took out the money.

Omundu wabene nga kabona kamapesa kang'ali kamalalu shetani kekisa mumapesa.

He was excited when he saw the money, the devil really lives inside money.

Nakanja khumbolela ali wase ali ese omukhasi wase kaesisie.

He started saying that his wife was pregnant.

Omukhasi wase kakholile ariena ali mbekho kamapesa kano.

He started giving many reasons he needed the money.

Kamapesa niko nenya khumuwa chielefu kumi ndi chiche chimuyete ata wakana munju omwo sabele alile ta.

Ten thousand I wanted to give him was not going to be of much help.

Ali mbe chielefu mia moja, namureba chielefu mia moja, olimile, onjakile.

He wanted one hundred thousand which I asked him whether he cultivated land for me to have such amount.

Sowamanyile niye fwanile ta.

You don't know how much I have struggled.

Sowekhalilikha ndakhuwa muchuli, nabona omulebe khakaniala.

I told him to wait till the following day but he insisted.

Ekhumalilikha narurira mumuliango kwenyuma naloma ndi khenja khwisaba ndi wase khakhwikhale khunywekho kamalwa kabili kwanza eje anano khulolelekho sindu esindi.

I left from the back door lying that I was going for a short call and take a few drinks.

Neniche alafu nio khumanye nokhulakhola.

For me to come back and see how I can help.

Kauka ali esili eyo.

He thought I was still there.

Ndikhembikha kamapesa murumu ekindi.

I told him I was keeping money in the other room.

Khane nikho khucha khwase nenamulekhala ao chielefu mala ese nabwao.

The truth is I was leaving, I left ten thousand for him.

Yama khwicha aa balebe.

It came to a point.

Likhuwa elio sakamala kawa kario ta.

It didn't end there.

Kamapesa.

Money.

Kasuta shetani yeesi niyo khufumianga khuno.

Is the evil we praise in this world.

Nama khupa nabukula lie Kitale bandu bauka bali ndi ebung'oma khane nabukule licha ekitale.

I left to Kitale while people thought I was in Bungoma.

Kuka osala maayi.

To my maternal grandfather.

Oyosi nabira sitatunga nengila mukari.

I passed Sitatunga and went inside.

Yaba oli khwikhala.

When we sat down.

Yaba oli khwikhala bise.

When we found time and sat down.

Endalo yakwanza yabira yekhabili yalondakho.

The first and second day passed.

Nabola ndi ngalukha engo.

I decided to go back.

Chisuku echo abele chisimu chino chikhecha ta.

There were no mobile phones those days.

Khale khwachichanga khumibox kikindi mwailanga muli kical abele wupakho engo noreba ewewe.

Long ago we used to use the call box to call home.

Ku call okwo kwabenga biabiashara biefwe ndeeba ndi.

We used the call boxes in our business.

Mala nga ao kang'ali kafwana karie.

As it was that way.

Ta bali nja sai chino kabelekho kamalayi.

It looked better at the moment.

Bali sisindu sasilikhoo sibi ta.

There was nothing wrong.

Nomundu wamanya abele esiri eyo kaba maayi yeng'ene.

My mother was the only one who knew about the secret.

Nende abele nio mbuka ndi owasiange yesi abele niye ndonda khabili.

With my elder brother.

Khwaba oli khwikhala owasiange khane kumurwe kwonekhe bali abele kambone nekamapesa kamakali sana.

My brother was annoyed to see me with more money.

Nono kenya khurumukhila mbo baloba bali.

He wanted to use me.

Bali mwawandayo ekholiokha omwoo mwosi ekholiokha.

When a cock crows at your brothers house, the same should happen in your house.

Nekhane mbao yesi okhwnyela ta.

Apparently nobody wishes you the best.

Mulala nikwo khulomile khuli kukhale nekuli mwiwe kukila ata khane wera wamawe.

When one is jelousy, he can even give his/her sibling.

Kenya khukabana kimiandu kino nende chindangunywe, abe nono esese wandaye kakila niye nenya khuyeta kakila mbo esese.

My brother I wanted to help wanted to set me up and share the money with the police officers.

Sibala siosi simanye mbo khane omundu webile emwani kaba sa omwana fulani sali omundu umukali nga niye balakanakananga ta, lundi ata abele omundu sakamanyile ali emwani yatibile.

The whole region was to know it was me, just a young boy that stole the goods, they had not known about, it was not an adult as people were thinking.

Wasiange kama khutima kacha mpaka siandangunywe eyo nacha aloma ali ewe.

My brother went and reported me to the police.

Ndi newendayase nibo bebile emwani abundu fulani mala ali nekemapesa kamakali sana.

He told the police that I had so much money from stealing the goods at some place.

Yaba busa oli mutauni yefwe ye bung'oma mbulila busa baloma bali balayimanga omwana fulani.

I was in Bungoma town when I heard they were looking for some child.

Nio beche khane elomo eliye mbo khane nachile khane emwani fulani abundu yatiba wakala oli bacha banyola.

There was a story about the lost goods.

Kuturela kusutanga kimisiko kino.

The trailer that carries the goods.

Sakulimo nende emwani yosi mwo.

It didn't have the all the goods.

Aba chindangunywe chino aba nechanhja khumbima.

The police started looking for me.

Chindangunywe naba oli biola bise biakoloba ndi nenya khwilukha.

When I wanted to run away in the evening.

Nebambolela bali chindangunywe khachikhuima mungo muno.

They told me the police were looking for me.

Nenya khwilukha wakati kimitoka kecha khuno bali eldoret express, nilukhe nje Mombasa.

I wanted to run away to mombasa using Eldoret express bus.

Aa yabechanga musibala.

It was in this country.

Wumusale baloma bali ata omusale akhila wandayo bise ebindi.

They said a friend is better than a relative sometimes.

Naba nende mukhwasi wase omusale sana.

I had an in-lawa who was a good friend of mine.

Naloma ndi khenilukhile wamukhwasi kabechanga Magadi eye bali Kwoba.

I said I wanted to run away to my in-law who lived in Magadi he was called Kwoba.

Nelukhiliye ndi njemenyekho ebweneyi.

I wanted to run and live there.

Nono khane bise nibio bangali ndi nenya nenya khucha nje nine kubasi kuno akoloba kunjile paka narobi nio nje.

The time I had planned to take the bus to Nairobi for me to run way.

Khane balandondanga sa khubikele.

Apparently they were following my footsteps.

Yaba oli biola bise bia koloba ebasi chaninanga saa kumi oli kianja khunina saa kumi nja mubasi ndi njembukule ebaki nje nine.

When I went to the bus station in the evening to travel.

Senesenda bikele binga ta baye bakhwayila abwenao.

I didn't go far, they arrested me from that point.

Bama khungesia khungo khuno balebe.

My people, the moved me around.

Chisuku echo abele ndi ne kimiaka kumi na tano.

I was fifteen years by then.

Nama khukenda khuno naonja eseli ne kimiaka kumi na tano, mbakhoo eseli.

I was moved around in many police cells at fifteen years.

Eli musibala siiefwe sino mukaunti yefwe nga yebung'oma eseli niyo khamanyile ta.

There is no cell in Bungoma county that I don't know.

Neli Adongosi banjikhasianga ano kamasa kataru.

They used to keep me at Adongosi for three hours.

Neli siakhulia siekumusi enja khulia Malaba.

I used to eat lunch at Malaba.

Oli sili ata echai niyo khanywele saa nane ta bali khuche oche onywe.

I would take tea later in the day in another place.

Oche onywe ebokoli mukhapolisi post.

You will drink in Bokoli police post.

Nakenda buli abundu banyila eseli eli khungo khuno.

I walked everywhere, the took me in a certain police cell.

Niyo muulilanga busa banyala bakhwikulila Nakuru mala omundu sakimanyile ta.

They can take you to Nakuru where nobody knows the place.

Nio wingilamo, newingila busa mala khali busa kharumu fulani nikho bakhubolela bali wiyama namwe tawe.

There is a small room where they ask whether you accept or not.

Baba oli wima oriri.

When you stand this way.

Bali onyala wabolakho babandu.

They ask if you can name other culprits.

Ndi bali ese semanyilekho omundu yesiyesi ta.

I said I didn't know any person.

Nebulayi.

The good thing.

Khubiya basebe bano lakini basebe nabo nabamanyile mbo omundu wabwe bamutilile.

We blame the Kikuyu's, but when they know their person has been arrested.

Khane balondanga busa oli enjukhi khane saupa ndala ta wacha ta omundu oyo kayilomela.

The follow up like a beehive that works together.

Bano bamanya bali nabwila baloma bali fwa busa nenalio bakhakhwira bakhakhola barie.

They told me to keep quite despite the mistreatmnet.

Khulashugulika buli sindu.

They promised to help out.

Nebatimile muchiofisi nabanja khukholanga bindu nesese, naba oli munakuru nimwo ndaloma ndi balebe nokhabona.

They went to offices to help, when I got to Nakuru, the one I am talking about.

Eng'ano bakhusikhakho mala wakalukhakho busa ori.

Feeling like you are burried and resurrect.

Baba oli bekula khaseli akhandi khari.

When they opened another cell.

Bali omukari omwo wabonekho omundu, bali yingila mukari.

They asked me to enter the place that had nothing.

Nengila bali oleyamangakho, onyala wabolelakho bandu nandi ese semanyilekho bindu nibio mulambolelanga bino semanyile ta.

I entered and they asked if I knew people involved and I said I didn't know anyone.

Nebalebe abele nekhanjikhasia kwanza, bise abele nabakhanjikhasia mwitoka muno khwanje khusunguka ta banyoa banjila mukhaseli khali enzoya.

They took me to a cell in Nzoia before we started moving around.

Nono omulebe wase noli otima noli ocha mubung'oma musiteshoni ya Bung'oma oli bana khutila ano omwana wase namwe bama khutila ano wandayase nowolayo saunyola ta.

When a relative will follow up and come to Bungoma, they would not find me.

Chindangunywe chino khane chamanya nga nechinyaa ne abandu.

The police knew how to play with people.

Nono ese khane bachile khungisa.

They had gone to hide me.

Ewe oexipekita oamini liliikana lioo namwe liba lioo obona oli.

You will have a different expectation.

Omundu yuno nyala namunyola abundu fulani khubela ali nekesi embofu.

I can get this person somewhere because he has a big case.

Khenjekho Kakamega khenjekho waena.

Let me go to Kakamega or other place.

Khane bise ebio balengesianga mubindu nio babene balanganga bili bi polisi post, banjamiakho ebokoli.

They would move me in various police posts like Bokoli.

Mukhapolisi post, kwanza banjamisie enzoya nikhalamo oli enje bucha khusia banjila abundu aandi yaba oli nja.

I would spend the night at police posts after coming from Nzoia police.

Endalo yongene ndala onyala wakenda chiseli chirano.

You could be taken to five cells in a day.

Chiseli chirano.

Five cells.

Mala engendela mwitoka.

I would travel in a car.

Nilio baling'ona sipesho lili lio mundu mulala liong'ene.

The one made special for one person.

Nio okhanyala welukha ta.

That you can't run away.

Ese bandila nechindangunywe.

The police arrested me.

Enamba ya bandu kumi na mbili.

Around twelve people.

Khale biabechanga bindu oli bimatatu bino nibo bakendelangamo nibo babene balanga bali bafulaini squad nibo bakendelemao.

Long ago they used vehicles that the flying squad used.

Nono serikali yola abundu oli echa yingesia oli yinjila Nakuru.

So when the government later took me to Nakuru.

Nauka ndi chino balakhupa, bakhupilekho chikheng'enyegele chino.

They had caned me.

Babona bona sembula ta.

They realised I didn't say anything.

Baba bali banjira Nakuru balebe.

My people, when they took me to Nakuru.

Bafungula khaseli khakekhe sa khari bandamo nauka ndi.

They put me in a small cell.

Kwanza nalola babanjikhasikhasia bali ta inja khuche khuri.

They put me there.

Naba banjimia mubasiange.

They put with others.

Balebe bano bali ne mupango, bali nende liba lie khunjira namwe balanganakanilanga barie.

I was wondering what plans they were having.

Baba oli banjila mukhaseli akhandi.

When they took me to another cell.

Bali khwenya obone bandu fulani khabecha muno mala nabakhakhwolakho ta.

They told there were some people who were coming and before they got to me.

Onyoe wiyame mapema.

"You should admit early"

Khungo khuno khamanya ndi kamasa kalikho kamabaya ta.

I didn't know there were caterpillars that are kept.

Lisa kamasabulukhe niko mubona kano.

Scary catarpillars.

Okorwa bakabaya munafasi ta, lakini baba oli bekula eseli bari.

I don't know how they are kept but when they opened the cell.

Sekakhumolakhokho ta.

They don't crawl on you.

Sakukhumolakho ta.

They don't crawl on you.

Lakini balaba oli.

But when.

Balaba oli baambia chitaa bali.

Whe they put the lights on.

Kamasa kano kama busa mubindu oli mumaloo busa mala okworwa kama waena ta.

The caterpillars came from things like holes.

Mala ewe bakhwimisie akarikari.

They would put you at the middle.

Bali okhacha akarikari ta.

They would warn you not to go in the middle.

Mala omundu khakecha akhwikulilayo ali khobola namwe khulekhule abandu bano beche bakhukendekhe.

A person will come and ask you to mention other people or I let all those people to attack you.

Nono obona kamasa kanja khufukunywa kamayo kenya khukhwichayo.

You will see caterpillars crawling over to your side.

Mala khakecha khakesenda niyo oli.

They will be moving close to you.

Nga nasimia etaa nobona khakelukha lundi kakalukhayo.

The caterpillars ran away when they put off the lights.

Naloma ndi nono ese siaela.

I knew I was done.

Endi ese siaela.

I knew I was done.

Bakelayo naloma ndi tawe.

I later said.

Nokhufwa khefwe busa lakini.

I would rather die.

Sekhembolakho ta.

I would not say anything.

Kweli bama khulekhula kamasa kano kama khwicha kangendakho mala mubulayi khane kamasa kano sakalaba ta.

They realesd the caterpillars but good luck they did not cause a burning sensation on the skin.

Lakini lisa nalikhukendakho.

But when a caterpillar crawl on you.

Mala bakhufulile chingubo.

And you are naked.

Noloma oli tawe kene noli mumulimo.

I would say no because I was in much danger.

Lakini.

But.

Omukikuyu kambolela.

A Kikuyu told that.

Fwa nalio busa khubela luuno.

"Keep quite on it because"

Sakhakhulekhakho ta.

"We shall not leave you a lone"

Efwe niyo khwepela ano khukhwepela khukhwepela.

"We go through a lot"

Mala nabaloma bario khane khane boosi balanga litoka lie chindangunywe lili khalikenda lakini chindangunywe sachamanyilekho chili litoka lilindi lili enyuma.

As they said that, the didn't know that there was another car behind.

Liliyo ta, lakini litoka liefwe nekhwanja khucha khukhola bubwifu obwo, khubela abele nalimanya.

I knew our car since we started stealing.

Liosi nendimona nenikhale nechindangunywe ndoma busa ndi lili abundu aundi.**

When I saw it going down with the police, I knew going somewhere else.

Nono nekhwikhala.

As we sat down.

Nekhwikhala bali khwachile muoeteli, chindangunywe chino nechola abundu chili chakhakile chiseli chino choosi chakhililwe.

When the police realized they had tried all the cells with no postive results.

Naba, esuku ndala banjamia ano.

One day they took me from here.

Abandu bano mbara baima engila ekindi yekhwenya bamanye.

I think were looking for a way to break me.

Eli nende.

Which had.

Yaani naibikha siri sina.

The secret they thought I kept.

Niyo khanyala nabola yino ta, baloma barumikhile engila ekindi nga mubangili niyo baloma bali yekhukhuwa.

They had used all means to break me.

Edivai onywekho.

They wanted me to drink alcohol.

Mala okhole oriena, wibule.

For me to confess.

Mala khwaba oli khucha khumupaka kwe ebukanda baloma bali wase ewewe sai yino sai oli omusale wefwe.

They said I was thier friend when we went to the Ugandan boarder.

Bali ewe oli omusale wefwe, "ewe sai chino khwamanyile khuli ewe sowakholakh sindu ta lakini ewe nywa busa nywa busa wiulile bulayi" mala khane balenyanga nimesie.

"You are our friend and you can drink as much as you want" They said that to make me drink.

Nio bambolele wase, bali ewe oli busa free.

They told me to be free.

Khwama ano banduba mpaka engelekha bali wase bali khoche okhole orie, bali cha okhwendelekho wase cha okhwendelekho sindu khumupaka namwe mumaduka.

They send me across the boarder to buy some things in the shops for them.

Cha khusituriti khumaduka fulani akako omundu aliyo fulani khulekhile mwiduka fulani oche osome busa sindu silimo khulekhile" mabakhoo sindu nisio balekhile abwenao, benya babone khawilukha namwe tawe.

They would send to a certain shop on the street just to determine whether I would run away.

Lakini liba lianjichamo mala naloma ndi abandu bano munafasi nimwo khulakendamo either ndakhola khwilukha namwe bandu bano bali munafasi ya khwenya khunjira.

I suspect they were planning to kill me if I don't run away.

Naba nola abundu ndoma ndi, nanja khwibombia.

I reached a point and started behaving well.

Baba oli bamba kamalwa oli banywa kamalwa oli ndura benya khunjukhilakhomo kamalwa akandi lakini enywa oba nola abundu nenikhola ndi nenya khendwala, kumubili kwakhayile.

I would pretend to be sick whenever I felt they wanted me to drink more.

So that ekhanywa kamalwa ako naendelea khunywa kamalwa.

So that I won't continue drinking.

Khubela nenywa kamalwa kano.

Because if I drink this alcohol.

Khubela nisio wenya banja khukhurerera.

Because they would provide you everything I wanted.

Nowenya chips bakhurerera.

If you wanted chips, they will bring to you.

Chindangunywe chino chola abundu paka chinjimila enju chiloma chili, chinderera lundi omundu wesikhaye chiloma chili "luno efwe khakhukonela eneno wesi luno cha okhupekho chimba esitutu"

The police reached a point where they would book a room and get a woman for me to have sex with her.

Mala nakelao nalola ndi.

I reached a point where.

Namanya ndi abandu bano benya khunjima liba liase.

I realized those people wanted to make me confess.

Yaba oli bindu bino biakhayikhane.

After all the failed attempts.

Balebe.

My people.

Esese nendi nekimiaka kumi na tano nanyoa naonja eseli eli mukaunti.

At fifteen years I stepped in the county cell.

Ya Kakamega balanga bali underground cell.

In Kakamega which they call underground cell.

Banyamia nono banjila ebweneyo khucha khumenya ebweneyo bamanye khulondolela sina.

They took me there for a follow up.

Lakini basebe bandonda paka ebwenyo nabenya khundila paka banderera kamagazeti nesoma nende binanu balomaloma nende bakhongo.

But the Kikuyu's followed me to the place and spoke to the bosses and brought newspapers for me to read.

Mala yama khwola aundu nama khucha nakhola ekesi yino, nakhola nende wakili yesiyesi ta.

I did my case without any lawyer.

Mala sanabolela omundu ta.

I didn't tell any person.

Bano bayeta khutimana khukula chiofisi.

These ones helped in bribing the people in charge.

Niokhuloma oli bubwifwi musibala muno bwosi sabuliwa ta.

That is why we say, stealing will not end in this world.

Nekhongo seliwakho ta.

And bribing will never end.

Bakhola khongo mala ekesi senatilakho wakili ta.

They bribed and I had a case without a lawyer.

Ne wefamili yesi sakamala kakholakhomo ta.

There was no family member who helped.

Kengililakhomo ta.

Who was involved.

Mala nachukha ekesi neng'eneyo nende seng'ene aba nende basebe.

I won that case alone and the Kikuyu's.

Nono endi ndalomalomanga endi.

So I am saying that.

Kuno kwaba kumwanzo kwesese.

That was my beginning.

Khubukula limenya liase khumanya ndi.

To live my life in a way.

Aba nono aba nabone ndi kamapesa kalikhoo engila fulani yekhuyima, shortcut yakhuyima kamapesa.

I realised there was a shortcut to look for money.

Mala nama khwama endio nanja khumenya limenya liase.

I started living my life from there.

Aba nenanja khuima kamapesa.

I started looking for money.

Nama khwola abundu enafasi ng'eneyo yama khuba abwenao aba nono kamasomo kase aba munafasi ekindi, mubise bindi aba sakanja aba natibisiekho chipointi fulani anyuma.

I reached a point and lost points in school work.

Bise fulani, khubela nakenda nga ndio at nola nga namala enani yino kamapesa kase abele nembikhile kamapesa kase aba sanamala.

Because of money I didn't see the value of going to school.

Nola abundu nasoma nola mukilasi ya kumi na tatu naba nima ndiendiendo.

I stopped school in form three.

Balebe abele nebililee.

My people I had forgotten.

Elomo fulani.

Some story.

Niyo kamapesa kano, nga nanyola kamapesa kano.

When I got the money.

Bise ebio abele maayi wase asiliyo omulamu.

My mother was a live that time.

Khandome ndi bisee ebwo able omundu wanyoa kafwara mawe.

Let me say, the first person that dressed his mother.

Bawandayase, abele nabali bawandayase bosi bali basomi.

My siblings were also educated.

Balikhuchikasi chindayi lakini esese.

Though they had good jobs.

Maayi akhukhililakho rarawe.

A mother is better than a father.

Maayi alikhomo nesisa.

A mother has remorse.

Maayi sakabona bubi bwase ta.

My mother didn't see any mistake in me.

Mala maayi kandilanga ali nekambikhila kamakhuwa kase.

My mother was my secret keeper.

Esiri yase niyo naba nayo.

The secret I had.

Mala nama khukelao nabukula maayi omusasi.

I later took my biological mother.

Kamapesa akako balebe nama khucha nayima.

I went to look for the money.

Nama khuyima, nacha naima epilo niyo maayi akonangamo.

I looked for the pillow my mother used.

Khwabukula khwarao kamapesa akako mupilo omwo, maayi ketikiyanga epilo eyeyo.

We put money in the pillow my mother used.

Maayi ketikiyanga kamapesa akako.

My mother used to rest her head on the money.

Naba.

Then.

Yama khuba embo.

It was that.

Bise fulani nacha.

Some other time, I went.

Khubela nokhakhola ebisara khungo khuno wamanya bibiasara, ewewe nokhakholakho ebesara nebili bioteli nokhabimanyile ta.

If you have never done a hotel business.

Okhekhupakho busa oli khenje khole bibiasara bieoteli ta.

Don't just decide to do a hotel business.

Nokhakholakho ebasira bie muofisi bakhureko bali nga bulayi bwene nebabukula luno kamashini fulani bakhurakho bali timia kamashini kano nokhakamanyile, okhakerakho tawe.

If you have never worked in an office or with machines, don't agree to operate it when asked to.

Ewe noli anano.

As you are here.

Nokhamanyile oli ewewe noli nebuweso bwekhukhola sindu ta.

If you know you have no experience to do something.

Ese nama khwirakho endi nenya khufungula eoteli.

I wanted to open a hotel.

Namayo khubela emanyile ndi muoteli.

Because I knew in a hotel.

Bali aba bora okule bibiayo wakana obe nabio, nenya khufungula ebiayo bie chimbusi.

You only needed the cattle, I wanted to keep goats.

Nama khwama khungo khuno ese semanyilekho ndi khanao.

I started the journey with no knowledge.

Babandu khungo khuno bakholanga.

I didn't know what people do.

Opanga esabu.

You have to do some calculations.

Omanye oli bukhala okhanyole orie.

To understand how you had to get the profit.

Nebindu bino okhabinyolenge wae.

And where you would be getting such things.

Bifuria bienyekhana biuria binga.

How many cooking pots you will need.

Ebindu nibio balomanga bali okhola khwinonosia mukari omanye buli sindu sisindu sino sikhakhuyile siriena.

They say you need to find more details on what you will need.

Nono ese nekamakesi kase busa kano.

Me with my brains.

Okay munafasi ekindi naba nende kamakesi kekhunyola kimiandu kino.

At that point, I had the ideas of getting the wealth.

Lakini kimiandu kino khukibikha senakirumikhila munafasi eba yenyekha ta.

But I didn't use my wealth well.

Naba oli esuku ndala.

So, one day.

Nenyokha busa nembola ndi maayi.

I just woke up and said to my mother.

Khola ori, chakho musikono sioo.

To have a look at the savings.

Bise ebwo aba khuli nende chisilingi chase.

We had my money that time.

Kamapesa chielefu mia tatu ishirini.

Three hundred and twenty thousand shillings.

Namakhucha ndi maayi mbekho.

I went and requested my mother to give me.

Chislingi chielefu ishirini nenya khucha emayanja.

Twenty thousand to take me to Mayanja.

Khubela maayi okholanga eoteli mutauni.

Because my mother had a hotel in town.

Khayo khwikule ekhutasilekho kamapesa ekhutase esitoko wikule bibiasara bie chimbusi.

I wanted to add her more money to have a goat business.

Nama khucha emayanja balebe.

My people, I went to Mayanja.

Nekamapesa chisuku echo abele nokula embusi, embusi-likhese libechanga mia nane.

Those days a goat was eight hundred shillings.

Embusi yabechanga bali eelefu ndala namwe eelefu ndala na mia mbili.

A goat was one thousand or one thousand two hundred shillings.

Nama khuunga abele kamapesa akandi mumufuko abele karamilekhomo nende chielefu ishirini nicho bambelesie echo.

I added some twent thousand shillings I had in my pocket.

Nama khwicha nechimbusi.

I came with the goats.

Mungo nechicha nechikhinia lituri newima khungila nachikhupilisia.

They would knock you down on the road.

Mala abele nawamayo, khane samanya ndi ebienebwo nono mumakesi kase manya ndi khekhola bindu bilayi khane lakini khanicha khusirekere.

In my mind I thought I was doing good things.

Nomwana oyo kamasie waena kimiandu nikio abaya chimbusi chino oli ocha khumala, acha khukholela si.

People were wondering where I was getting the money to buy the goats.

Aba buli mundu areba ali.

Everyone was asking.

Nelifwara liachenjile khale.

The dressing code had changed.

Sendi Sifuna okhwa Okumu niye bamanyile oyo ta.

I was not the old Sifuna son of Okumu they used to know.

Nee khungo khuno khane noli nekamapesa.

When you have money on this world.

Abele ata niye okhamanyile oli anyala kakhupila lusimu ta.

Those you don't expect, will call you.

Chisuku echo alakhuyima akhukeniye emuliango woo.

They will even look for youl and visit your home.

Aloma ali balebe sina nisio oli nasio umbekho.

They will ask for anything small you can afford.

Yama khukelao chisuku echo wanadayase yesi wakati eyo kundi yesi kabao kenya khwingila musiasa.

Later on, my brother joined politics.

Nembolela maayi ndi, khubela naba ndi nekumoyo kumulayi ndi maayi welesia wandayase chielefu khamusini ache atimile siasa.

Because of my kind heart, I told my mother to give fifty thousand to my brother for the campaigns.

Alingalusilia.

He was to refund.

Kamapesa ako nama khukabakabangakho balebe.

I shared that money among the relatives.

Nechindi nacho.

And the others.

Nengenda busa.

I would walk.

Neniyo nenyile khukhalakho nendiakho bulayi.

I would go anywhere when I felt like eating well.

Nendiakho bulayi.

As I ate well.

Maayi wase ao nekenya khuliakho bulayi.

My mother also ate well whenever she wanted.

Engubo niyo kenya khwifwarakho kefwara.

She could dress any dress she wanted.

Namakhumenyanga limenya busa elio.

That was the life I was living.

Abele neli esikati niyo.

If I wanted a woman.

Niyo obona oli enyala yakhufwaa.

Which I felt attracted to.

Khane kamapesa kafuna lukulu.

Apparently money can give you heaven..

Yama khwola bise ebiebwio.

It got to that time.

Bakhaba ata bamaayi bali mutauni omwo bali bawakili balala.

Including women who were laywers in town.

Benyanga nebabona baulila mbo abele nende ekesi fulani bamanya bali khane omusecha.

They admired me from my case.

Khubela nola abundu paka bakhupa khwigazeti.

Because at some point I was published on the newspaper.

Bakhupa bali mala barakho nende value mbo.

I had a price on the newpaper.

Kamapesa, omusoleli yuno kebile kamapesa.

"This guy had stolen money"

Chimilioni kumi na sita.

Sixteen million.

Nono obira mutauni nengenda khane ese nanyolakho sa kamapesa.

So everyone in town would see that I had the money.

Enusu ye milioni lakini khubela kakandi bakelao banderera kamapesa kase akako.

Half a million because they paid me the other money.

Lakini nono nengenda mutauni, noli khusitiruti ingawaje wachukha ekesi solikho nende si ta.

As I walked in town, people will assume you have money after winning the case.

Lakini omundu nakelao aloma ali omwana niyo obona oyuyu.

Someone will wonder about me.

Omanyakho oli keba mala kakisa chisilingi ali nechimilioni kumi na sita.

"Do you know he stole the money and he has sixteen million shillings"

Nono abele ata abele.

So.

Esikati yosi yenya, nga babandu be chisikati basima kamapesa, buli mundu kenya abone ali wiche kekhalekho busa namwe.

Women wanted to associate with me because they love money.

Nowingile musilabu bali ocha khunywa.

When you go to a club to drink.

Buli mundu abona sa ali omundu yuno ali ne kamapesa.

Everyone would assume you have the money.

Mala kweli bilikhomo bilimo.

It has some truth.

Bie kifumba macho bikilakho khu.

There is some small money to confuse them.

Yaani nokendakho nekhatoka nocha nowimia nakho abundu, wakomboe khatoka omundu abona ali kweli omana yuno kharumikhila kamapesa kewe.

Someone would believe you had money when you hire a car.

Nabali khukhola eraa nakholakho mala eng'eneyo niyo yaba wakati yase yakwanza khucha musibala niso sai balanga bali South Rhodesia

I had fun and that was the first time I went to a country they now call South Rhodes.

Aba Zimbabwe, is it I mean eli Zanzibar.**

Which is Zimbabwe.

Onyoa muzanziba.

You begin from Zanzibar.

Aba khucha khwisingakho kamechi kebweneyi.

To go and have a good time there.

Nama khwama khucha khwisingakho kamechi kachumvi nacha nesingakho.

I went and showered in salty water.

Mala kumbuka oli aba ese ndi omwana wakwanza khunina endeke.

Keep in mind I am the first child to board a plane.

Khumapesa akase.

With my money.

Kali omundu kaloma ali raha wiwa wamwene.

Someone said, you can make yourself happy.

Mala namenyangakho nende kamapesa kano khane katamukhanga kalinga kamasafu kola abundu kakwa asi mala katamukha kawa.

I didn't know money is like tree leaves which gets blown after dropping down.

Elio liama khuba likhabi liakwanza.

That was the first blessing.

Noli abele oandika sitanu sia John Kiriamiti nekaandikanga.

If you were writing the John Kiriamiti book the way he wrote it.

Onyola embo enafasi fulani aba sitabu fulani aba echaputa fulani wapanga wara kando.

You would find the book had the chapters arranged.

Eng'eneyo yama khuba enafasi yase eyola mala abandu bano saba.

That was my time in my life.

Samala banyoa bangaya bafumba nakalukhakho mulaini yenyekhana ta.

My people didn't guide me well.

Nama khumenya oli nola abundu.

I lived and reached a point.

Nenyola lundi khubela endi nebasale ala basale ndi nabo baloma bali.

The friends I had.

Basale, onyala waba nende omusale mulala kakhukalusia nokundi naye kakhuyila munafasi ekhaba yenyekhane ta.

You have a friend who can guide you well and the other would lead you to the wrong direction.

Lakini nono nokhakhula, onyala wakhula emubili lakini watamba okhula chinganakani somanya oli olakosanga ta.

The problem is when you are not mature in thoughts, you will not understand when you do mistakes.

Yaba oli yola bise fulani nama khunyolana nende ekwokwe ekindi khungo khuno bali ebasa kamapesa balebe.

My people, when it reached a certain point, I met another gang that created the money.

Nechindeke nanina namwe nanina.

I used to fly out many times.

Noulila oli chikampuni mungo muno.

When you hear about companies in this country.

Chikampuni chikwa namwe bafutile bamaneja mungo muno, nakhubolela balebe.

If I tell you how companies collapse and managers get fired.

Nese ekasi niyo baloma bali ya ujazuzi.

My audit job.

Bandakho nekhola khola ekasi ye khukhola muchikampuni khumanya nga kamapesa nekatibanga.

It they give me the job, I will audit to find out how companies loose money.

Omundu onyala wabona mungo khuno bafutile maneja fulani mukampuni fulani wauka oli keba kamapesa akako.

You may see a certain company manager getting fired and think he stole that money.

Mala maneja oyo khane sakeba kamapesa ako ta, sakaliakho ata endururu.

The truth might be that that manager never stole even a coin of the money.

Oloma oli omusecha yuno bamufuta mukambuni fulani nakeba kamapesa kano nakacha wae?

You will wonder where he went after being fired for stealing the money.

Kali keba kamapesa kano khubela si nakhabadilikakho mumaisha kewe ta.

If he stole that money, why hasn't his life changed.

Nalilia mapesa kewe kano sina.

When will use his money.

Khane baliyo, kumwinyawe kuno mala kwamila musibala nisio balanga bali Nigeria.

These games started from a country called Nigeria.

Nikwo bandu balanganga khungo khuno bali money maker.

What people in this country call money maker.

Sakabali omundu kecha akhubolela nabapanga ng'ali.

Someone can come and tell you how they plan.

Kamasomo kali mubwenomu mala kosi ocha busa ekosi.

You are supposed to train for that.

Khubela ebele namwola khumesa oli muchanganye kamalesi muchanganya busa mala kamapesa karura.

Because you will have to mix the medicine on the table and create money.

Lakini seli kamapesa aba obasile kamapesa ta.

But it will not be the original money.

Orumikhila engila fulani yakhukhwinyaa namakesi ke babandu mala bandu bakhuwe kamapesa.

You will use a certain trick to get money from people.

Nama khumenya khusibala sienesio.

I lived doing that.

Mumilimo kienekio.

Doing that job.

Mumaisha kase karibu kimiakaa, saba, lakini sima wele mbo.

In my life for almost seven years, but I thank God.

Esindu siakila nendure munafasi yekamapesa kenako.

The reason I left that job.

Abasiange kumukanda bakali bafwa.

Many of my colleagues died.

Mala lifwa liabwe liabanyolanga mungila eli tofauti.

They died under different circumstances.

Balala babamika.

Some were strangled.

Balala babera busa.

Some were just killed.

Balala bali noli ne kamapesa niko khuloma khuli kali nesikosi ta khubela obasa chisilingi, niba oloma oli obasa chisilingi.

Some because of money.

Buli mundu kekomba khungo khuno.

Everyone in the world wishes.

Khulalomalomanga khuli abandu bafungule yaani babe nende enganakani yekhufungula khukhabona nga bali.

People should think through things.

Yaani balome bali edili namwe, edili neli endayi kanakanangakhomo khabili kwanza omundu akhakhutila busa ali edili endayi niyo.

They normally say, when the deal is too good, you should think twice.

Yoosi omubolela oli sesi khubela khakhufumia kamapesa nawesi ocha busa khumapesa.

You should not just do it because of the money.

Mala omuluya namwe omumalinamwe abele busa omu oo.

A luhya or any black person.

Binadamu yesiyesi nomubolela esilingi bamulamila khusilingi.

Any human being was cursed when it comes to money.

Ata wakhaloma oli yira mawe arera mawe mala.

They can kill their mother if you ask them to.

Okeshe mbo akhacha khunyola kamapesa.

To show that they are going to earn from it.

Nono omubundu nabola ali nenya khubabasila kamapesa chindalo echo abele bandu bakahamanya ta.

Those days people didn't understand when you said you were going to create money.

Omundu atima busa narera kamapesa kewe koosi ali pop.

Someone will bring all his money at once.

Nakhuwa oli cha okhole orie, umbasilile kamapesa kano.

And give you money for you to create money for him.

Nono noli nekamapesa onyola embo.

If you have money, you will find that.

Abandu besikhaye bano boosi,yaani nonyola mbo nechili mbo mubilabu bino aba nibo bali nekamapesa.

Ladies are the ones who have money in clubs.

Ewe wakhekhala akandi khakecha.

Even if you don't work, you will get other money.

Khubela esese muliba liase kang'ali sanaikhola ebindu biabwe nibio barerirenge bia sai chino bali abale bilaputopu bino ta.

Because I didn't use laptops like in the current world.

Lakini senaitilakho esindu siabwe nisio balanganga bali emausi eyo namwe sina ta.

I have never held a computer mouse.

Lakini nekhucha khukomputa.

But when it comes to the computer.

Khukomputa khwinyaa busa nawe, ninya busa nga nekheseta esa eri.

We will play on computer the way I am setting my watch.

Mala ekhwiba nakhurumira omusungu aloma ali bakhurumila efax.

I can steal from you and you will receive a fax as the white man says.

Necha mala wanjiba mala lundi nekhwanja khuchibana nawe.

We shall then have a conversation.

Nemala ekelao ekhurera mpaka khwicha khwakanane khwikhale nawe khumesa mala khubolele ndi khwamanyanila abundu fulani.

I would later tell you where we met when we sit down.

Namwe nakhuyeta munafasi, nono ekhurere wisende khumubili nekhubolela ndi esese balebe nangala aundu kamapesa fulani nafwana ndi nafwana ndi.

I will tell you how we met when we become close.

Nawiche unjete mala ndi nende mfano nalemelwa sindu fulani inja umalile.

For you to come and help me finalize something.

Njangile kamapesa fulani kekhukhola ekasi ng'eneyo.

Contribute a certain amount of money for me for that job.

Yama khukila manaja naba aulilakho ali nechimilioni fulani che mukambuni fulani chimilioni nga sitini.

When the manager realise he has almost sixty million for the comapny.

Namwe chimilioni chitaru mala khabakhubolela bari.

Or three million and you are told.

Ewewe khwenya ukhuyekho sa chielefu mia sita chikula kamalesi.

"We want you to help us with six hundred thousand to buy the medicine"

Khurusie kamapesa kamakali kano mala ewe oche olipe kamadeni koo akako.

"We shall create more money for you to pay your debts"

Mala okhuwe chimilioni chitaru.

For you to give us three million.

Acha akhonyolola kamapesa ako koosi arera khumesa.

He will bring all the money on the table.

Abukula kamapesa kekampuni kakhali akewe ali bacha khumubasi.

He will take the company's money for more money to be created.

Eeh wanyuma wakhukesia.

At the end.

Khubela nakhuli muembasi.

Because when we would be at the embassy.

Ese kha muembasi khurusiakho nende khunina busa khucha muembasi.

Operating from the embassy.

Nobira muembasi nioche musibala esindi.

You go through the embassy to go another country.

Ese muembasi narumikhilanga yabechanga eofisi yase.

I used the embassy like my office.

Niye ndi nelimanya ndi ata bawandayase balala bakhaswala ata muembasi ta.

I have knowlwdge that some of my siblings have never stepped in an embassy.

Mala nenja muembasi sendi bali nachile khukholamo sindu ta bora nime khukaunda.

When I go to the embassy and stand just at the counter.

Nyala naba nenjile khureba esindu omundu fulani khukaunda.

I might have gone to make some inquiries on the counter.

Ekhemureba ndi wase, ewe esese aundu anano wakana khemureba ndi musibala muno.

I would be asking him something about a country.

Musibala muno nenennya khucha musibala sino, yaani nikhola nga omundu niye khamanyile tawe.

I would act like someone who does not understand much about a country.

Namwe ndarebanga omundu fulani kwanza.

Or I may be asking about someone.

Nono ewe nakhwimisie khubolela nandi khuche muembasi nenya khureba ebei yekamalesi.

I will have told you that we were going to the embassy to ask about the medicine price.

Mala oli maneja wanderire nakhubolele ndi ikhala ano khubela samwene ese manyane nebandu be muembasi.

I will ask you sit down as the manager because I know the people at the embassy.

Olema ano ondinde mala nekhenja khuno nja khurebana.

You will wait for me as I inquire.

Khendomaloma mala nilungikha omundu wesikhoba sikhali siefwe ta sirunda nga siebasungu.

I will chose to speak to a white person.

Ndomaloma naye.

I will talk to the person.

Nono ewe oloma omundu yuni mala kama khumbolela ali.

You will wait knowing.

Ewe linda kamalesi kalakhola kariena, kamalesi bararera.

I have to wait for the medicine to be brought.

Ewe bukula busa kamapesa.

Just take the money.

Kamapesa khuche khukhole orie, wiche odiposite.

Deposit the money.

Nengalukha khumuinda yuno mubolela ndi nalomalome bali kamalesi kaliyo laki khabakhurusilia khumuliango kwenyuma.

I would then tell my boss that the medicine will be given using the back door.

Nono ewewe nisio okhola noli nakamapesa kabali osutile kamapesa khuche mubanka oche orusie kamapesa.

So the person had to bring money to the bank if they had it.

Khuche khulipe muembasi khubela kamalesi kano sakama musibala muno ta.

For us to go and pay at the embassy because the medicine doesn't come from Kenya.

Haha nakhwama ao.

Haha, from there.

Nakhucha kanga'ali walolelel nechimoni.

We would go as you witness.

Enywe muli bakhongo mwasoma muli nechidigiri.

You are bosses who went to school and have degees.

Muli nende chimasitasi.

You have the masters.

Lakini senaloma ta enja nima aoo.

I will not say anything but go and stand there.

Kang'ali sesi nefwarire mala neumbona wakana oli sesi omundu yuno kang'ali alolekhana.

I would look presentable from the way I would have dressed.

Nono nawenya khumanya abefwi balayi khungo khuno befwara bulayi sana.

If you want to know fraudsters, they dress well in this world.

Enja nima khukaunda bulayi.

I will position myself well on the counter.

Oba oli ngalukha nekhubolela ndi, nenamayo nenja bacha banderera einivoisi.

I wil back with an invoice.

Khunani okhwokhwo neli ekwotesheni yabuli sindu nga khurerire khurio.

With the quation of everything.

Bakhusilia erisiti mala erisiti yino fwabene khumanyile khuking'ona khunyaa mukomputa erura ya American embassy kwarerekho buli sindu.

We would forge a receipt or invoice with the American embassy name.

Epuraisi list ya bibindu bino.

With the price list of the goods.

Nende sipimo siekamalesi kenyekhana.

With the level of the medicine needed.

Mala nono nekhurerera ewe namwe ndi.

So when I bring to you I tell you that.

Nama khwola khuembasi bambelesia lola barusa erisiti wemile ndurumamo nicha obona ese natilile likoti embeo eucha.

You will see me given a receipt from the embassy and you wil see how I get out with the coat flapping from the wind.

Nikha nicha warere mupaking'i.

I would come at the parking where you will be.

Parking yoo kando wandilile ebweneyo.

You will be waiting for me at the parking zone.

Namayo ndii.

I will say that.

Khwafanikiwe.

We have succeeded.

Ata bararerire ibisina nono.

I will show what they will have brought.

Balomile mbo abele kenyekha khulipe kamapesa kano muembasi.

I will tell the boss the money is supposed to be paid at the embassy.

Nono mbara nebili bise bilayi khuche khubela kamaelesi kano kasikale kidogo khusitoko yefwe.

I would suggest it is a good time since we have less medicine stock remaining.

Khuche khwende orusie kamapesa khuche khulipe.

I will ask the boss to withdraw the money for the payment.

Nono nakhwamayo nakhucha mubanka.

So when we go to the bank.

Nabali bali bakhuandikile mbo kenyekha chinga.

If they gave us a certain figure.

Khubela lukali nendi bali khekhuwa esabu sekhurera musipimo sia Kenya ta.

Normally I would not give a figure in Kenyan shillings.

Senyala nakhubolela ndi chielefu mia tatu ta.

I would not tell you three hundred thousand.

Chielefu mia tatu.

Thee hundred thousand.

Omukenya nolomakho oli chielefu miatatu kwanza anyoa kesindukha, ekhurera mudola.

If you say three hundred thousand, he will be shocked so I put in dollars.

Nono mudola ewe ndakhubolela busa newe wamwene balecha bakhukaliketile baadaye.

I would tell you in dollars and they will give a figure later.

Nyala nakhubolela ndi wakala benya chimilioni, obe nakhuloma khuli 2.5 million dolar.

I may tell you they need 2.5 million dollars.

Nono ewe nobona orio.

When you hear that.

Wicha okalikileta onyola wakana chimilioni wakana salasini.

You will come to calculate and find like thirty million.

Mala nono nenicha nekhubolela ndi nenya busa chimilioni chitaru.

When I come and tell you I want three million.

Khulacha nawe mubaka safari moja khubela wabone oli khane omusecha yuno sindu sia kwanza kama khumbila muembasi.

You will go with me to the bank because I took you to the embassy.

Oyono aba omusecha yuno ali genuine kama khulomalomanga nomusungu ata mbone.

You will believe I am genuine because I spoke to a white person.

Naba khwamayo khucha mubanka okhomolola kamapesa nenamayo nekamapesa koo nasutile.

You will then go and withdraw money from the bank which I will be carrying when we come back.

Nasutile.

I will be carrying.

Wasiange niye kenya khucha naye.

My colleague he will want to go with.

Nono khubolela ndi was nono nekhwamayo esafari yefwe nekhucha khulipa kamapesa kano nja khulipa munani, ekhubolela ndi khabambelesia kamalesi.

I will tell you after the payment we would receive the medicine.

Nekamalesi kano sakenya kamanyikhane.

The medicine should not be known.

Khubela khendusilia mumuliango kwenyuma.

Becasue it will be coming from the back door.

Khucha khucha khuchioteli abele khwamanga ano nekhucha ebundu nga ebukanda.

We would go to hotels in Uganda.

Ekhubikha chioteli chili chindayi chili karibu nende eembasi yayo yebukanda eli karibu abundu balanga bali Munyonyo beach.

I would take you to good hotel close to the Ugandan embassy, a hotel called Munyonyo beach.

Niye beach newenya khucha Munyonyo beach.

Munyonyo beach.

Ocha bakhongo ebweneyo niyo bainda bekhala niyo bandu bekhala nocha basungu bali ebweneyi boosi.

That is where the rich and white people stay.

Nono nama khuembasi ao nekhubolela ndi nono khubela khwamileyo khwachimba khwabukula kamapesa.

I will tell you since we had come from the bank to take the money.

Khwakachinjile khwarere mudolasi, khubela nesuta lisakanya liri.

We would change it into dollars because of the bulkness.

Nakhwikha engalukha khwikha nawe mwitoka olaloma omundu yuno kasutile kamapesa kamakali.

People will know we have carried a lot of money when we alight from the car.

Neekhubolela ndi nuria kamapesa koo nechili chimilioni chitaru mala khuchenje.

I would ask you to withdraw your money if it is three million then we change it.

Mu American dollars.

To American dollars.

Nono ebienebio nakhabukula busa bibaasha binga nakhabikha mumufuko ndi nekamapesa koo lakini somanyile ta.

You will not be able to tell your money because of the many envelopes I will have.

Nono nenamayo ekhulekha abwenao ewe ocha unjikhisilia sa mugeti ya embasi.

I will leave you there as to drop me at the embassy gate.

Newe wingila, ese ningila mukari nekhubolela ndi khoche undinde, aba ekhubolela ndi ndindile muoteli abundu fulani khanicha.

I will go inside and ask you to wait for me at some hotel.

Kamalesi seli bali eembasi niyo elambelesia ta.

It is not the embassy that will give me the medicine.

Lakini khurumikhila science yase nende chemistry yase, kamalesi ako ngang'onile khale kali muoteli abundu fulani.

I will have already made the medicine using my chemistry and science knowledge.

Namwe wasiange niye khuli naye kechile yesi apakile litoka lili sa kando kechile khulamuvanga naye.

Or my colleague would be around moving close to us.

Nono nekhwicha oba oli khwingila ewe khubela wenyekhana wikhale ekisulu.

You will be waiting for me when we get in.

Olabona oli nachile, olaba oli baada ya chidaka ngalikileta busa manya busa ndi chasikale karibu lisa nga lilala.

I will have an hour timing.

Naba oli wakana nachile muoteli nje mbukula kamapesa kase mbikhe ata muoteli niyo ndacha ngone.

I may have gone to keep the money to the hotel I will be spending the night at.

Namwe ngarume kache musibala esindi.

Or I can send it to another country.

Niye ndacha, nendi mubukanga nyoe nje ngare ngarumanie ngasukume kacha mukenya.

Where I would travell next, If I am in Uganda I will send it to Kenya.

Nono nenamayo aba ndikho nende bisilingi biase biekhulia ta, nyala narama nende.

I will remain with some money for upkeep.

Chidola kuma naine.

Fourteen dollars.

Chidola mia mbili chenecho chilinga chielefu kumi naine nebitonye.

Two hundred dollars is like fourteen thousand and some coins.**

Chenecho manyile ndi chenecho chilanjeta mumufuko nenikhale.

I knew that will be enough for my upkeep.

Nekamapesa koo kano koosi.

And all your money.

Kali sibala esindi, yaani khuchidaka kidogo echo kachile khale musibala esindi.

It will be already in another country.

Mala sakali khu account yase ta.

It will not be on y account.

Nono nekhwamayo nengalukha nekhwicha nenamayo.

So when I come back.

Litoka lindera mala nono aba endimake njile murumu nimwo ndekhalanga muno.

I will brought by a car and rush to my room.

Ndamixanga kamalesi kase, echupa eliyo nekhukholela paka ekhukholela lundi buli sindu.

I will be mixing the medicine in the bottle.

Nekhurerera okinyola ata baking'ona bali ItIaly.

When I bring it, you will see the Italy trademark.

Mala emanya nga nengikolola paka nokifungula yosi nga nerarusiia esauti fulani.

I will make some sound when you open it.

Nono nenicha kwanza.

So when I first come.

I will scare you about the its contents.

Nono khulamayo, ewe nawamayo olabona busa name mwitoka litoka liosi nicha.

A car will come from the embassy.

Nono ngomboa litoka nilio nenyile lie bei endayi.

I hire an expensive car.

Nenisio khekhubolela litoka lino bambele esikoti khwama muembasi.

Nicha nima siaoteli.

I will come stop at the hotel.

Nendoma ndii.

I will say that.

Nicha khulanga muoteli.

I will call you from the hotel.

Nakodeshishe omundu wesikhoba ata kakhaba baandi bosi baliyo bakhola bibiasara bino abele namwe omusungu.

I will have hired a white or indian person who will also be doing such business.

Mama yesi omusungu bali ao.

White women will also be there.

Abele nocha nga chioteli nga Anjenua.

If you went to hotels like Anjuna.

Anjenua desk hotel chabechanga mukampala.***

Anjuna hotel in Kampala.**

Alubeka wa tourist naolayo obukula mulala babene boosi abele bekusia abwenao noloma oli khuche oche ukholele biasara khubela boosi bamanyile.

They were tourists who were prostitutes and they would agree to do business with you.

Buli etauni eli nende balosi bayo.

Every town has its witches.

Nokhwamayo ndoma ndi khuche ewe oche okusiekho sikhoba sioo siong'ene.

I will request them just to sell their skin colour.

Omusiele nakolayo, namuelesie ndi nawolayo oloma oli.

I will instruct her what to say when she arrives.

Eeh emali yenye mwabone eli sawa, kenenako kamakhuwa niko olomaloma kong'ene.

"Are your goods in good shape" that was the only thing she was supposed to say.

Nomukhongo ali aa eli sawa.

The boss would agree that things were okay.

Basi newe bakhola barie.

They will then.

Barusia kuchupa mwitoka obona khusuta, nesuta ata ouka oli nenya khucha khukhuwa nenja khubikha mwitoka liefwe.

We would carry the heavy bottle and take it to our car.

Kuchupa kulola abundu nenenya nekhenya emali yoo yole nio khwola ta.

If I didn't want your goods to get to where you wanted.

Enyala nola abundu nenitiukha kuchupa kuno.

I could reach a point and carry the bottle on the head.

Noma ndi ewewe nono ekhupake.

I would suggest to take charge.

Namwe nolola khunyala khwicha oli khwola khumupaka nga kwebukanda kuno.

But when we get to Uganda boarder.

Nee omusikari ata nabone omusikari kamile busa, nabone nende omusikari yesi wekhuboda.

A boarder police officer would come.

Nono efwe nakhwamayo, wakana khwamile kampalanabone khwichile busa bulayi ta wapake nono ewe wambusie litoka fwesi khwambukhe fwesi khwiche nawe.

We would have travelled well from Kampala to the boarder.

Oba oli nola amwalo amalaba nalomaloma nende omusikari yesi.

When I get to Malaba, I will have talked to the police officer.

Endangunywe yesi aliaa mulala.

There will be one police officer.

Nemubolela ndi nakandeba nakambolela ali owase ewewe.

He will start to ask me questions.

Chiliyo chingali chekhwenya oendelee khutasakho kamapesa.

There are many ways you could get more money.

Oendelee khutasakho kamapesa.

For you continue making more money.

Nono chindangunywe chino nachicha nendakhola, ndola abundu nendoma ndi efwe khuche.

I will ask you to proceed when the police officers come.

Nono mubolela ndi sakhunyala khwakenda fwesi khumupaka nekhulondana ta, ewe rangira ese ekhulondekho namwe ese mbe abweni woo.

So I would ask you to be ahead and vice versa to avoild quiries on the boarder.

Nomuinda yesiyesi omundu obonanga ali public figure sakenyanga khumanye mbo ebindu fulani biamunyolile ta namwe abone ali omundu fulani bamutilile abele yesi mumukanda bamunyolile nekamapesa.

A rich person doesn't like getting involved in scandals.

Nono esese nekhola ndio nyala naba nekhengenda mala khengenda busa nende eliikina nende elienya lakini nabukule sindu fulani nisio nira khumubili kwase.

I may be travelling with faith but with another bodily protection.

Eeh omundu yuno oli kandila aba emulole khale ndi naundila yima mumufuko mwase fulani sindu siliyo free sisiokesiana mbo nisio sutile silo sesili sia alali ta.

When they arrest me, I would have told him earlier that there was something ilegal in my pocket.

Nono nekhwicha, nasutile echupa yino nono nokibona mukari kang'ali efwana oli juice niyo.

You would see us with a bootle with the liquid that looks like juice.

Nono khuba oli khwicha khumupaka nakandeba ali ewe wase ewe yima.

He would ask me to stop at the boarder.

Nga wimia busa omundu yesisi ali ewe yima.

He will stop me like any other person.

Musakhulu ese eshida ese abele khembira busa nama khukula kamachungwa kekhulia.

I would try to plead by claiming I had only gone to buy oranges.

Ali nono nakhubolele ndi yinja anano.

He would then ask me to go over.

Nono omanyile omuyinda nali okhulondakho aloma ali omulebe yuno yaani.

You know the boss would get worried.

Sakhabamutilakho nekamalesi kano mala khwama khukula ebei engali ta, nakepa chimbako kemela sinao hahaha.

He will wonder how I may be arrested for the expensive medicine hahaha

Eeh kemela sinao.

He will stand at a distance.

Nono ewewe nocha abwenao wiyama bakhupekho chimbi chinili chitaru.

So I would accept to get two or three slaps.

Omuinda abona ali omundu yuno.

The boss will see that this person.

Aba.

Has.

Aba bamutilile namwe si? nono ewe wiyama bakhupekho chimbi chindala.

He will believe you are arrested from the slaps.

Neli nende rob yino noli nayo obakhekho siamoni obole oli kholila kabisa, mala omuyinda khubela nabona ario salema karibu ta alacha kemelekho kando.

You can apply the rob ointment close to your eyes to make you cry, the boss will stay away when he sees that.

Alekelao nabona wakhupile echeki bakhutila.

He will see you get arrrested later.

Abona khabakhukalusia ebukanda.

He will see you being taken back to Uganda.

Babola bario nono khane abene oli bola abwenao, nomuinda baona ali uyuno bamutilile nono yesi nali ao khayaba atima acha lwelumonyi.

The boss will rush to Lwemonyi place after seeing you get arrested.

Abona kang'ali nelinga malaba khuboda ewe wingila wae abwenao khabakhwingisi museli.

He will witness you taken to Malaba boarder cell.

Nanga omanyile bapolisi nga bang'onanga chipolisi, chiofisi chabwe.

And you know how police boarders are made.

Obira ocha khuripota ano nabakhuyila eyi nio bakhuyile bakhubikhe musitoo.

You report and a different place from the cell.

Nono ouka oli bamuyile mustoo enyuma.

You will think they have taken me to the cell at the back.

Khane mbirire endio njile munju mwomusikari oyo nachile khubadilisha chingubo ebweneyo.

Instead I will be at the police officers house changing.

Nono ewe balanja khukhupila chisimu khubolela musakhulu inja unjetekho ese bandilile.

I will start calling you to come and help.

Kwanza esindu siakwanza nakhakhakhupa chimbi ario ta, omusikari sina silakila siokesiane.

The police would first give me a reason for arrest.

Mbo omuyinda yuno amanye ali kang'ali.

For the boss to believe.

Nebusa arareba ali mumutilile khubela sina.

Bacause he will want to know the reason for the arrest.

Oramureba mumoni chebandu bano.

You will have to ask him infront of people.

Omanye si.

You know.

Bainda bosi babechanga banjindafu kenya keme arekeresie abone ali omundu yuno bamutilile khubela si.

The rich are normally brave to understand why you will be arrested.

Eeh khubela si, nono alema kando.

He will stand on the side.

Na omusikari areba, khubela omuskari already wamuelemisie kolile ario.

The police officer will explain to him, since you will have already discussed with him.

Nono kamaswali alakhureba busa ali "kijana, sina nisio osutile sino"

He will ask you, "young man, what is it that you have carried?"

Oli wasutulile kamachungwa, kamachungwa ali "lelo mung'onanga kamchungwa ka aina sina kano?"

You will tell him that you had carried the oranges which he will doubt.

Oli ta kano kamachungwa kase.

You would insist they were your oranges.

Mala wakala kwanza wamupuripeyile omuinda oli rakhomo kamananasi.

You would have prepared the boss to also have bought the pineapples.

Rakhomo kamanasi okulekho kamatore nokhubira nako omundu amanye busa ali khwasutile ku kuchupa khuchile khukula kamatunda, lakini olakelao aloma ali rusia busa khuchukhe bindu bio asi ano khubone.

We would buy the pinapplesa and bananas for someone to confuse the contents in the bottle for fruits but the police would insist we pour everything outside to be checked.

Oli balola banyolamo kuchupa kuno.

When they find this bottle.

Naba omusikari yuno kamanyile ali nokhokenda kenya akele ali ewe omukenya, ndi ese omukenya.

The police will ask if I am a Kenyan, which I would say yes.

Abano banja khupa sachi, mala khane okholile busa mukhwenyakhwoo nobukula khanoti, khanoti nga nibio bang'ona biaba bali bimali bino biekhung'ona kamapesa kano nora mumufuko mwoo.

They would start searching me, they would find a black note which I would have intentionally put in my pocket.

Naba akhupa sachi ari.

He would do the search.

Ali nee, ali sina sino?

He would ask, "what is this?"

Kano sakali kamapesa niko ndaulilanga bali abandu balang'onanga khungo khuno.

"Is this not the money I am hearing that people are making in this country"

Kamalesi mbo aba kamechi kano niko kacha khung'ona kamapesa.

"It means it is this water that is going to make the money?"

Nono aba sakhareba ebweni womuinda namwe, nomuinda naye**

He will be asking that infront of the boss.

Ali aba banyola aba ese kano kaba karie, nono aba nayaba.

The boss will get scared.

Nono chisa nicho bakhupanila nio bakhola barie?

That was the time they beat you up.

Nono olola eyo nawanja khulila okelao wanjakhupa lusimu oli wabele khamwiche munjete baye.

You would then start crying and asking for help.

Omuinda yuno khubela niye oli nelusimu.

Because it is the rich who has the phone.

Oloma oli ta nalomalome nende omusikari mulala keche kakubaliye malakabele omusale wase.

You will say that you had talked to one police officer who had agreed to come and help you.

Lakini nono bakhanjila bangalusia Luzira ta.

But I will say they haven't taken me to Luzira.

Luzira eli eseli**

Luzira is a cell.

Eli khumechi nga niyo baboanga Kizza Besigye we bukanda.

That is close to the ocean where they jail Kizza Besigye from Uganda.

Khunyanja.

On the ocean.

Ebweneyi babandu balomanga bali.

At that place, people say that.

Abandu bamayanu bekhungo notorious abandu babanania sana nibo babayilanga eyeyo.

They take notorious people there.

Nono chikesi chimbofu nga khuhwibila sibala.

Big cases like stealing from a country.

Kamapesa, efwe khumanyile musibala nga siefwe sino ata efwe mbakhoo sibala sing'onanga kamapesa khungo khuno mubung'ali ta.

There is no country that honestly make money.

Aba nono nelinga mukenya muno eliyo busa sibala nga muno.

Like here in Kenya.

Elio esindu silala sing'ona, mala aba bechanja busa aba.

There is only one thing.

Khurusia bifwani ebio khurakho nga nibio balanga musibala muno bali delaru.

To imitate, they call it delarue in this country.

Lakini seliyo abandu babene bang'onanga kamapesa.

But there are no people that make money.

Bindu bing'onanga kamapesa kano sakama musibala muno ta.

Things that make this money doesn't come in this country.

Nono ese nawamile abwenao omukhongo alanja khuloma ali nono benyile bariena.

From there the boss will start asking you what they wanted.

Elio nilio liswali liong'ene nilio areba, "okhebilila bambulakho ta" omuyinda alakhubolela ario "okhebilila wambulakho oli khubele nenawe ta"

The boss will insist that you don't say his name.

Fwa busa nga sisecha siakhaba sina nendima nenja olanyolakho chisilingi chiri.

He would ask you to stay strong like a aman to make money.

"Khubela chisilingi ata khwekopile ata kukaunti nabukule busa che kampuni fulani chimilioni aba chirano khakhutasekho"

"I took a five million loan from a certain company to add on"

Ata njime ata chakhaba chielefu ata miatatu.

"I will even look for three hundred thousand"

Khuwelesie omusikari oyo mala kabali banyala bakhwilusia orure aundu ao.

To give that police officer to get you out of this place.

Eyo elaba liba liakwanza liekhukhurusia munafasi eyeyo.

That will be the first tricky to get you out of that situation.

Nono ese nowikhale ao ewe wakala oli ocha kando.

If you were seated there, you will move aside.

Nomusikari yuno yesi alomaloma naye.

The police officer will talk to him.

Mala khunamaba niyo mukulile eli busa engeni niyo omundu okundi akhanyola tawe.

On a new number you bought that no one else has.

Nono nabapila omuyinda yuno, amubolela ali "oyuno omusoleli woo niye?"

When they call the boss, he will asked if I was his boy.

Khwalomalome naye mala kambolele kang'ali keyamile bindu nibio akholile lakini kambolele ali.

"We have talked and he has agreed doing the things he did"

Ali khocha niye, nono aba wanyoile wapripreile lundi umuyinda.

He says he is your uncle, you will have also prepared the boss.

Wamung'onele khale chinganakani wamubolele oli khekhupila lusimu mala sekhendoma ndi ewe soli omutajiri abele niye khuchile khukhola nawe kimilimo kino ta, namubolele busa ndi aliyo khocha wase wenya khunjeta khemusaba wambekho chisilingi.

You would prepare him that you will give him a call refering to him as an uncle who wants to help.

Nabola ndi khocha wase aliyo nembona barerekho kumurungi mbo.

I will tell him they have put a price that my "uncle" needs to pay.

Yimakho chielefu mia tano newiche khukhole khurie? khusikule ebindu bino.

I will ask him to look for five hundred thousand to get the goods.

Omuinda alakhureba liswali liekhabili.

The boss will ask you the second question.

Now, khakhwinyaa nechinganankani cha binadamu we khusibala khuno.

Now, we shall be playig with the human being mind.

Alandeba ali khubela nololelela wabukule chimilioni chabene.

He will ask me this, because of the millions he would have taken.

Che kampuni.

For the company.

Namwe chibele che biasara warere mubiasara fulani.

Or meant for a certain business.

Mala khabakhureba chielefu mia tano chong'ene che khucha khusikula echupa yino.

Yet they are only asking for five hundred thousand to get the bottle back.

Mala osikule nende omundu yesi ndi akhakhutibisilia ekasi yoo ta.

And also rescue your employee not affect the progress of your work.

Olalekha chisilingi chino chitibe namwe olatima chisilingi mia tano balebe khucha khulola chisilingi mia tano.

Will you let the money get lost or you will look for five hundred thousand.

Bung'ali busa olatima chielefu mia tano echecho bakhaloma bali muchuli, nechili chikhafu namwe wakula wara aundu olara khumusingo.

The truth is you will run to get the five hundred thousand if it means selling the cattle.

Namwe chisilingi nachisikale khu account yoo lundi orumanie.

Or use any money that will have remained on your account.

Nono nga orumania esuku niyo bakhulangile bali wiche obukule.

The day they will call you to pick after sending.

Bali wich obukule noche orie omusoleli woo, wiche undusie.

For you to come and get me out.

Nowolangayo onyolanga mbo nenyae nende kamalesi akako nachenjilekho busa ekala kidogo.

I will have tampered with the medicine which will have changed the colour when you come.

Nendikhomo yellow.

If there was some yellow.

Ndasakhomo neli mwabene muli food colour.

I will have added food colour.

Enjenjakho nebakho green.

Which will I change to green.

Nono nowicha bakunyola bakufungulekho mala kwanjenjilekho ekala sakulinga erangi niyo omanyile ta.

You will come and find it open and with a different colour.

Nono nawamayo nekhubolela ndi kukundu chisuku chayo bakufungule mala aba embeo yikhupilekho mala yonakakho kidogo.

I would tell you that the bottle was opened and some air entered.

Lakini khakhuche khujaribe khubone.

But we should go and try.

Ewe olamao ta lakini wele omulayi khukhuwakho shuguli, walipile khale chisilingi mia tano.

You will leave and pay the five hindred thousand shillings to get me.

Chielefu mia tano chino nabukulekhomo emia busa yong'ene nawelekho omusikari.

Out of five hundred thousand, I will give the police officer one hundred thousand.

Nga nakenyae kumwinyawe kwewe, chielefu mia nne lundi changalukhile esese.

For the game he played, I will remain with four hundred thousand.

Nono nga namayo.

After leaving the place.

Mala esuku niyo wicha khundusiria.

The day you come to get me.

Khubolele wamwene wiche umbukule mala esuku niyo wicha khundusiria eyo khaumbona khabanjamia museli.

I will ask you to come and get me yourself, you will honestly see me coming from the cell.

Mala nono aba nyala namala chisuku chirano nabasiruma chisilingi lakini ndia chiraa chase nakalukha ekambala.

I can spend five days enjoying myself and even go back to Kampala as we wait for the money to be send.

Lakini nono esuku niyo wicha khundusiria.

The day you come to get me.

Nenicha nifafwara bikubo libukhulu nemanya busa museli onyola sesi bikele narere busa nje.

I will dress up and dirty myself in the cell.

Mala becha khundusia mala esuku eyo bamakhuba khuba banderere.

It will just be for that day.

You will ask for my name.

Omundu fulani abele nekamakoso namwe omusikari kamayo busa mbikhile omundu yuno musitoo kwanza khanicha khumubona.

The police will request they put me in the cell before he comes back to take me.

Nono sabamanyanga omundu sareba nanu ta, lakini omukhongo naloma ali cha underere omusoleli oyo keche oli museli oyoyo.

They don't know the person people come to get, so he will say my name.

Becha khundusia nono aba khundusia mala enganakani omuyinda amanya busa ali.

My boss will know that.

Omundu yuno kamenyile muno chisuku chino choosi.

I had lived there the all the days.

Aba khulang'onanga chinganakani cho muyinda amanye ali kang'ali waumie.

We shall be making the boss believe that you have suffered.

Liekhabili.

The second thing.

Wechile werane wabele omusoleli we kamakesi mpaka.

You would be regarded to be an intelligent person.

Wawoyile basikari mpaka bakubaliye khulekhla emali yewe.

For wooing the police to agree to leave his goods.

Liekhabili.

The second thing.

Sowamubulile oli mubechanga naye ta.

You have not snitched on him.

Orumikhile lisina oli niye khocha woo busa.

You just claimed he was your uncle.

Kenyile khukhuyetakho busa, yesi kechile khukhuyetakho busa nga khochao.

That he wanted to help you like an uncle.

Nono yesi aloma busa ali omwana kakhupile lusimu ali abundu fulani.

He will just say my nephew called me that he was here.

Yesi kekholekho oli wenya khukhulomianomiakho tu lakini mala aba khakerusiamo.

He will also act like he was disappointed in you to look believable.

Nga nakelao nomubolela oli khocha, aba oli mulura lundo nomusaba oli mbekho busa kwanza chisilingi busa chielefu khamusini kwanza.

You will request him to first give you fifty thousand.

Ese nje khupile kumili pole mbulukhe chisuke chino nekhwanje khusinga ebindu bino.

For you to treat yourself before you start working.

Nono aba mwasutile kamalesi kano haha.

You will have carried the medicine.

Kamalesi kano mwachile warurire haha.

You will have left with the medicine haha.

Warurire mungo mwewe.

You will have left his home.

Nebalebe.

My people.

Esuku niyo bakhurere kimiandu kono.

The day they give you your money.

Efwe mululomo lwefwe abele nakhukhola bibiasara bienebio.

In our business language.

Khulomanga khuli.

We say that.

Olamala wabukula lisanduku lino liekamapesa lino warera munju mwoo.

The moment you bring that box in your home.

Olinga na ubukule maiti naitukhile noli busa munju mwoo.

It is like keeping a corpose in your house.

Maiti yino selikhuwakho ta.

The corpose will never leave you.

Bali khulia busa kamapeesa.

They will just eat your money.

Khubela esuku niyo nolelemo ndi nende munju muno khukomanda.

I was able to give commands at home.

Endi nende buwezo bwekhubola ndi erunmu yase naundengele.

I have the power to have my room reserved.

Erumu yase khubolela ndi erumu yino yase niyo.

I will tell you it was my room.

Omundu sakengilamo khubela eng'eneyo yaramile nga sitoo siase sisutile emali nende buyinda bwase bwoosi.

Nobody would go in because it will be a store that keeps my all wealth.

Nono ata nanamayo ngenda nachifunguo cha munju omwomwo.

I would start walking with the keys of that house.

Mala nenicha munju mwoo nenya sisindu nisio nenya khulia.

I will look for something to eat when I come to your house.

Sio umbolela, nisio khubolela.

What I will tell you.

Nono nenjile nga abele omuinda nga nendi nga munaropi.

If I went to my boss's place in Nairobi.

Abele nenjile abundu khubela bayinda abele nja Hallingum.

If I went to a place like Hallingum for the rich.

Nenikhale Hallingum.

When I sit at Hallingum.

Ekhubolela aundu niyo nyala nekhala.

I will tell you a place I will stay.

Na asubui umbelesia litoka neduraiva kanjila nja khulia nga nenyile.

You will give me the car in the morning where the driver will take me where I want.

Umbelesia nende chi allowance sesi nga nengenda busa nga nendia bulayi.

You will give me the allowances to enjoy myself.

Nono esuku niyo khwolele munju mwoo.

So the day we arrive in your house.

Kwanza wambele nje engo kwanza nga khwarekukha nabirire mumateso.

Since I will have gone through a lot, I will need to go home.

Nabirire munafasi khaba ekhenyekhane ta.

I would have gone through a lot.

Lazima nepelekho basilikhekho mbulukhekho chisuku chibili.

I will need to go and get treatment and rest for two days.

Nono olaloma oli tawe khuche bakhusilikhe busa.

You say I should just get treated.

Babukulekho kamapesa kano khakhurumanie busa engo.

And send some of the money home.

Lakini ewe khuendelee nesafari bibindu bino bikhakhola birio biamenya lukali ta.

But we should continue with the journey so that the goods don't expire.

Noloma oli ta mala lino liosi omuyinda yoosi walomalome bulayi.

You will apppreciate my thinking as the boss.

Khubela yaani wenya omurere omupime lundi omwikhisie elatiri.

Because you would want to con him more.

Naloma ali.

He would say that.

Ali nono oloma oli esese engo kang'ali.

You would then bring up problems at home.

Abele nabele nende butinyu fulani buliyo nabulebe.

That you had a problem you need to solve.

Mala aba bakhupile bali butinyu kenyekha paka njeyo nesolive.

You would say they requested you solve the problem in person.

Nenyilekho wakala chielefu salasini.

You will need thirty thousand.

Nabusa sai chino esese eshida khenyolekhana engo.

I will say there will be a problem at home if I don't act.

Lundi abukule chisilingi echo alikhuloma busa ewe khuche ewe nina mwitoka khuche ewe khakhurumile chisilingi echo.

He will ask you to start the journey and that he will send the money later.

Lundi osissoba chisilingi oli khusafari lakini kamapesa kasichichanga busa engo.

I will still be collecting money on my way home.

Nono wamayo oli.

After that.

Mwamayo oli mucha mwola nono niyo munju mwewe.

When you get to boss's house.

Olekhola oli ewe omwalekho sina.

You would pretend to be sick.

Lakini nono namwolayo nono oreba oli lela chigulofusi khwanje khusinga emali nono.

But you will ask for the gloves to start creating the goods.

Balebe.

My people.

Wenya khumukalusia munafsi yenyekhane yabenywe, kali kamakhuwa kataru nokhola aundu ao ta.

There are three things you were supposed to do in order to take him back to the starting point.

Either ekhole kamalesi kano obonanga omundu akhubolela ali khwachile mala kamalesi konekhe.

I would make the medicine go bad.

Namwe okundi abele ndilile busa ndi kuchupa nekuchupa kwama mukhono kukwa.

Or someone would say the bottle fell from their hands.

Ebechanga busa oli khukhola khuri.

That is what we do.

Khunayala hwakhola busa khuri nema nabukula ndi ambia kumusima kumusima kube anano.

I would ask him to light the candle.

Kumusima nikwo nenya khukholela ebindu biase.

The candle that I would use to work.

Kumusima nenya busa kwong'ene khukhuwe busa esabu mbo ata nendi khucha mala olole oli.

I would only use the candle to get the correct product.

Ndenyaanga nechinganakani choo, olome oli takha kumusima andi sindu sino sasinyolekhana.

I will play with your mind for you to believe everything worked because of the candle.

Mba busa oli khembambia kumusima kuno nekhola oli khowikasa khufungula kuchupa kuno.

I would pretend to be opening the bottle.

Nakhane ekhumbu nayo, ekhumbu naye narere busa amusima aoo.

I would be place the elbow near the candle.

Neyinjosia nemala nendekhula kuchupa kuno kukwa asi.

I will intentionaly drop the bottle after the burn from the candle.

Niyo osilingi khubela chinju choo chili che simiti.

Since the boss's house would be cemented.

Kukwa mala kwatikha ne ekemiko eyo aba yachichukhe.

It will break after dropping as the chemical will spill.

Nekhubola aa baye, kumusima kuno kwarera eshida yino.

I will then act surprised.

Nono aba nakhwisisie munafasi ekindi.

I will have taken you in another situation.

Either.

Either.

Munafasi eyo khukalukhe waena, niyo khwanjila.

We will have to go back to the first step.

Nono likhuwa likhabili khutalila buli womundu sino anje khulila, mungo omwo buli mundu kanje khulila.

The second thing will be all of us crying.

Nengelao nenicha lundi khuombelesia nekhubolela ndi mala khulila sakhakhuyetakho ta.

I would later come and console you.

Efwe nisio khukhola khakhuyime engila niyo khunyala khwanyola kamalesi akandi.

I will advice you that we look for another option.

Lakini khendomalome nende mama oyoyo lundi ukhuwele bindu bino khulole kali anyala kakhwikhisiliakho asi bukusi.

I will suggest to talk to the woman who supplied the goods if she can give us a fair price.

Khumuwekho ata siba nesilikhoyo mala emali ekindi, ekhola eriena.

For us to give her the little money we have.

Nokhukhabe oli khulacha khwisinga khukalusiayo nakhuwelesia lideni.

We would then refund after we are washing and clear the debt.

Ewe nabakhulaka nabakhubolela rusiakho chibili socha warusia lundi.

If you are told to give two million shillings, you will not have an excuse.

Sakhusimenya sakhusilia.

We would still be living and eating.

Chindeke aba khusitima busa chindeke mukari muno.

We will be flying allover the place.

Hahaha

Hahaha.

Nono balebe.

So, my people.

Khungo khuno onyolanga mbo maneja fulani katibia kamapesa kamakali mukampuni sana.

You will find that a certain manager who lost so much money in a particular company.

Mala kamapesa ako ocha onyola.

You will find that money.

Sakalia kamapesa ako ta.

He may not having used any of that money.

Bulwale buno bwakendile ata ebola bulwale nibwo baloma buno ata bwabelekho kaikai.

This issue has been too much compared to a disease like ebola.

Lakini abandu babafutile chikasi muchikampani.

But people would have been fired in company's.

Khubela kumwinyawe kuno.

Because of this game.

Kumwinyawe kuno kwanjila elubeka bali Nigeria nikwo balanga bali 411.

This game started from Nigeria where they call it 411.

Mala kwakilile babandu batibisie chimali khungo.

It has made so many people loose their wealth.

Abandu kimikunda kiachile.

People have lost land.

Nali omundu umupeyi omulayi sana.

You wil find a good person.

Soliwingila munafasi omwo waana liru mala waruramo ta.

The moment you involve yourself in such, it is difficult to get out.

Namakhumala ndio.

After finishing that.

Khulome ndi nabali bamaneja nibio khanyala natacha sai chino ta.

I don't want to name the managers at this moment.

Nebakhaba babishopu khane babele babishopu.

Be it the bishops.

Babishopu boosi basima kamapesa sana.

Bishops also love money so much.

Mala nocha babandu nga bakina Bushebi bano, khembanekho busa mufano mulala kwong'ene.

I want to give on example like Bushebi, when you see the building.

Khubela omwonoyo nga Bushebi nobona egorofa yewe yino neyema busa yamala kimiaka kimikali.

You see how Bushebi's building was incomplete for many years.

Bushebi mubung'ali.

To be honest, Bushebi.

Kamapesa akako, chisuku echo abele nyola sai nga nikhale ndi.

If I get such money at this moment.

Andi nakholela ekasi, Bushebi egorofa eyi yong'ene.

I would have done some work, that building alone, Bushebi.

Bishop oyo khwamulia chimilioni chibili mala chaba nio barerire musaada.

We conned the bishop two million that was meant for donation.

Mala naye kenya khwingisia mubiasara biewe.

He wanted to use it on his business.

Okay, abwenao nolona abundu nendoma ndi seniukuma ta.

I sometimes feel I didn't do anything wrong.

Khubela mbonanga ndi.

Because.

Esedaka yino yawa khumusaada kwe babandu neniye kenya khura mubiasara badala yekhuyeta babandu babandi.

The donation was meant to help people and not to use in his business.

Nono wele naye karerekho ese nase nalia nababandu abandi.

God knows I shared with other people.

Lakini niye andi kalia yeng'ene.

He would have used it alone.

Ata andi bashirika sabalia ta.

Even the members would not have benefited from it.

Nono chachila mukanisa omwo kwema kurio mpaka nakayimilenge chinafasi chindi.

That is why he lost the money and he has been looking for other sources.

Aya nono norura nocha abwenao.

From that.

Ano abandu, abelwachi bakali.

Many pastors.

Bakhaba kina Macheusi.

Like Macheusi.

Bamakhutibianga chimali chabwe choosi khubela khubindu bino.

They lost all their wealth because of this things.

I will then come and tell you that.

Nekhurumila efa ndi wase ese omundu nabulebe.

I will send you a fax message about myself.

Khubela soli nende chinganakani che khukanakan enyuma ta.

Since you will have no memory to think back.

Balaloma kimiandu aba wolile khumiandu, sowenya ata khukanakana omundu niye bakhubolele ta.

You will not want to think about the person mentioned because of the money involved.

Solandeba lukali ta.

You will not ask me much.

Khubela esuku niyo chikondakiti chino mbo nenya khukhunyola ewe wabele etageti yase ndi khekhwenya ewewe.

The day I get your contacts, you will already be my target.

You will not escape my trap, we shall engage in question answer on the computer.

Olandeba ne bibindu bino, oli khochao yuno, nendoma ndi ewe wamwene onyala wamumanya.

Mala ndoma ndi nomundu yuno kali nanyolile emali yino.

I will lie to you that I had the goods.

Olanjiba mala mala khubolele ndi narerekho enamba yase olakhupila.

You will be intrested and I will share my number for you to call me.

I will ask you to go to Akamba and see how American dollars look like.

Khubela olaloma oli si, nobolelanga omundu saloma ali akhabonakho ta.

I will tell him that there was something else in the envelope.

Yola busa ochanganye nekamechi kabilile, khapauda akhakho mala okhake ochukhe khubindu ebio.

You should mix the powder with hot water and pour on those things.
