"In the beginning Ngai, called Gikuyu the father of the tribe. Ngai gave Gikuyu a share of his land. Then Ngai went to stay on MT Kenya. 'One day He took Gikuyu on top of MT Kenya. He showed Gikuyu a spot in the centre of the country where there were many fig trees. Gikuyu saw that the land was very beautiful. And Ngai gave it to gikuyu, who named it Mukurwe wa Gathanga.
Then Ngai said: 'You will at times be in need of my help, when the time arises,call me.
there he found a beautiful woman who he married and had nine daughters. Gikuyu went to Ngai and asked for sons."Go, take a lamb and a kid. Kill these under the big fig tree near your home and the blood pour them on the trunk of the tree. Let the family make a big fire under the tree. The meat will burn as a sacrifice to Ngai take your wife and daughters home, go back alone to the tree There you will find nine men who are will marry your daughters.

This is a myth because it has a God, portrays the refashion ship between Gods and humans and how Kenya came to be.
