- Description: The main theme of this song is affection for the Kipsigis country. He also asks 'why the white men should have taken over the country' which incidentally they themselves took from others in the past. He comes, he says, from the Sotik nearby. The name 'Chemirocha' is their pronounciation of 'Jimmy Rodgers' whose gramophone records were the first to be heard in the district. It is now synonymous for anything strange or new. Praise song with Chepkong 6 string bowl lyre.
