REMEMBER YOUR ROOTS

Know your roots Sometime when you hear about the big population of Wayao in Eastern and Southern Africa with many kind chiefs and one king. You will say They are so wise , With a strong leadership. When you read the history of the yao people And find out about the creation of their language. How they could mix Ndendeule, Nindi Matengo, and Kiswahili to make Kiyao "or Chiyao " You can think of the wisdom of those ancestors? Don't forget about  the coalition of Matengo,  Nindi and Ndendeule people who made the current Yao people  who are in Tanzania , Mozambique,  Malawi , Zambia , South Africa and Zimbabwe. Yao people are among african peaceful , sociable and powerful nations who can tolerate attacks of the weak nations for a long period while preparing to silence the attackers systematically. When you provoke Yao people many times You will regret one time and learn a good lesson.  Don't forget some group of yao people who left Mozambique to South Africa In 1870 after the war against the  coalition of makua, Lomwe and mwenyemaliya people on the Yao mountain now they are among the Zulu nation.
