TUSSLE FOR THE FIRST THRONE OF AWING
The nine family heads that arrived Alameti after sveral decades had supermatural bangle that they uesde to wield power.There was "Amune's", that is power struggle amongst them though they were together .Talks later came up on the need to get a supreme head. The idea to surrender bangles in order to get a leader to gorven them at Alameti was brought up by Pa Mbangwashi. After his suggestion several question were floating in the air on where,who,how and whose family the leader was to come from. The response still came from Mbangwashi who fired a motion that they should construct an enclosure into which family heads were to drop thire bangles and that next morrow the person who finds himseft inside wearing the bangles would automatically be named the paramount king. Both suggestions were bougt by others but or nbankadtnmbi who expressed fears that Mbangwshi wanted to hoodwink them and send in his son. The enclosure was built and deep into the night mbangwashi surreptitiously went in and kept his son. Mbankadtnmbi's fear came true when the following mrning eight of the bangles were found on the wrist of Mbangwashi's son
Ndime exasperated by the coup resolved to quit Alameti. The seven others lured him and gave him a family title NDI which warrant him not to clap before the fon and to run the palace in his absence. . Ndi was thus the second in command to the fon, a status quo, which is still surviving today.
