Ngai

Ngai, also called Enkai, is known to the Maasai as both masculine and feminine, and is the creator god of the related Kikuyu, Embu, Meru and Kamba of Kenya and Tanzania. His name is synonymous with rain.

The Maasai place his first dwelling on Ol Doinyo Lengai, the Mountain of God, and their laibon priests preside over sacrifice. In Kikuyu tradition he brought the ancestors Gikuyu and Mumbi together and made Mount Kenya his seat.
