- Description: Once upon a time there lived a giant which had one leg, one arm and one of everything. The giant had a son who was born and grew in one day. The sons name was Apaka. One day Apaka went to play with his friends and came back singing so that the mother would let him in and here is the song, "Mbugulire mama, kaindeindei yate eja, Ndine Apaka, kaindeindei yate eja." A hyena learnt this song so that when he sang it to Apaka's mother she would open for him. Apaka's mother did not let the hyena in. She knew the voice was different from that of Apaka although it was the same song. Nkonoliyande was the giants name. Story song.
