Ellen, you've been played. There is not a single Luo soul in Kisumu that doesn't know English. That is our first language. Tying with Dholuo.

But for Ksh. 5,000,000 – I'd lie I was born in a cow shed and drunk milk from the cow's udder to survive. Then happened to learn English from speaking with the cows, let Achieng' enjoy her bag.
