Reference to the husband is usually kept at the periphery.
ahahahaha... so true... There is also the nto so new "upgrade" to the references to Wa njeri wa ken wa shiku etc.... T his is a tradition where its disrespectful to call a kikuyu mother by her Name/Names(regardless if its her hubbys name) you are allowed to call her the mother of so and so (preferably the first born) We are talking about when THEY introduce THEMSELVES.....

An angry kikuyu man will call you all manner of animal names: ngui ῖno, ng’ombe ῖno, mbūri ῖno, funda ῖno, mbῖa ῖno, thegere . . . A bad day fishing is better than a good day at work

When a kikuyu is planning revenge, their sentences always start with maangai . . . Maangai nūgū ῖyo harῖa ngūmῖnyitῖra . . . A bad day fishing is better than a good day at work
