African roots are in Egypt and with the Egyptian Gods who are
the Demons of Satan. African tribes in sub-saharan africa, preserved the traditions of the Ancient Gods. http://www.asetnet.net/essayintrokemet.html http://www.masaikenya.org/
In general, traditional Kenyan religions involve belief in an eternal, unique and omnipotent creator God who is distant from mankind, but not out of reach. God created and maintained the universe, including man, who in many cosmologies was lowered from some other world.
Essentially, the Kenyan concept of God pretty similar to both the Muslim and Christian ideas. The name given to God changes from people to people, though those most frequently encountered are Ngai, Enkai, Akuj, Mulungu and Mungu, and variations thereof.
God cannot be seen, and usually resides in the sky or on high mountains. God is associated with rain (and by extension grass, certain plants, animals, mountains, rainbows and prosperity), as well as with the consequences of not providing rain (drought, famine, disease and death). God is also manifest in the sun, moon, thunder and lighting, stars and in trees, especially the wild fig tree (also called 'strangling fig'), which is sacred to many different Kenyan peoples. Sometimes, different names are given to God according to the manifestation in which he is apparent.
These various manifestations of God, together with the multiplicity of different names, have long confused Western observers, who saw in them evidence that Kenyans were polytheists. This, as I've said above, was far from the truth, as most Kenyan peoples believed in one God alone. Rather than being proof of belief in several Gods, this was only a way of distinguishing God's differing 'moods' (when God was angry and refused to bring rain, there was a special name; and when God brought good things, there was another). Often enough, God's different manifestations were also associated with colours and sexes. Black was invariably a good or 'cool' colour, whilst red (and sometimes white) was bad and 'hot'.
Another misconception is that God was always male. Although this is true among some people, this by no means applies to all Kenyan religions, and even among traditionally 'misogynistic' cultures (by Western standards), such as that of the Maasai, there are common expressions which praise God's female attributes.
As in Christianity, God can be prayed to, and although this can be done by individuals, it is most commonly done collectively at times of celebration, at important passages of life, and in times of calamity such as during epidemics, droughts and famines. Sacrifices of animals sometimes accompany such events, the sacrifice being seen as a direct offering to God, who may thus - it is hoped - be convinced to intercede in the affairs of the people. source: http://www.bluegecko.org/kenya/contexts ... eliefs.htm

Our believes were originally not like that,for instance they that used Ngai were the Kikuyu tribe and it was believed that God lived atop mount Kenya which was in the East (sound familiar)
they also never had such a thing as the devil,just bad spirits(sounds a lot like the so called bloody angels right?)
They were very prosperous but appeared primitive as they were happy to live in huts and no power but I pose the query as to why this was the issue.
Further,there were conflicts against other tribes by the local prophets of the time(translated into Afro Yehuborim)
Also,other tribes believed in God being in the sky ,heaven was bullshit and at the end of the day,they believed in dying to a field of the Gods,the Yehubor book doesn't mention that.
Funnier still,they offered sacrifices to appease the Gods,note the plural(there was a main one and other Gods) such as the Rain God.
Then the fucking Yehuborim landed and then ,with their bullshit came and showed us the fucking light,rewrote the history and the rest became the fact.
To ensure that they were accepted they adopted similar stands to the tribes then in alleged education robbed us of our true ancestry..
This bloody bastards messed it all up in a nutshell...at the end of the day the world is being destroyed by this bloody idiots

Bune helps acquire wealth and provides sophistication and worldly wisdom.
She gives facility of speech and a flair for words
Bune also changes the places of the dead. Bune has shoulder-length straight black hair with dark slanted eyes, a tan complexion and black wings. She is very friendly. I asked her if she was Egyptian. She said "We are all Egyptian." Her hair is styled like the Hollywood Cleopatra.
