Description: | Summary: Porotakainuhu was a chief at a village. One day he blew the conch shell and the people came together. He said to them, get ready for a journey. The people prepared the canoes and paddles and food. Then they waited and the day arrived he announced the departure. They travelled to Makira. P was the chief who journeyed with them. He was married to 10 women. A bad man came to the village while the chief was away. He was called Mwanepopota. He sang ‘teni, teni, I am Porotakainuhu. I journeyed to Bwaolo. Teni, teni I am P I have come back from B. After he sang he lay down with the first wife of P. Than the second and third wives and other people they said to him; you aren’t Porotakainuhu.
