Ngilukumong

Ngilukumong is a territorial section of the Turkana, among the pastoral communities of the drylands west of Lake Turkana. It forms part of the Ngichuro division, associated with an earlier phase of settlement in Turkana country. Each territorial section is identified with an area, although occupation and use of resources do not necessarily belong exclusively to its members. Turkana accounts of origins remember Ngilukumong among the sections founded during the journeys of Nayece.
