:!: WOW! These weren't just any Somali Bantus. They were Zigua, who, after some 170 years, still speak Zigua (Mushunguli) and are familiar with Zigua customs and practice. They are re-settling on tribal lands.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Somali_Bantu

"From 1800 to 1890, between 25,000–50,000 black African slaves are thought to have been sold from the slave market of Zanzibar to the Somali coast.[10] Most of the slaves were from the Majindo, Makua, Nyasa, Yao, Zalama, Zaramo and Zigua ethnic groups of Tanzania, Mozambique and Malawi. Collectively, these Bantu groups are known as Mushunguli, which is a term taken from Mzigula, the Zigua tribe's word for "people" (the word holds multiple implied meanings including "worker", "foreigner", and "slave").[3]"
