Extract

The Oyani Valley is in the South Kavirondo native reserve of Kenya Colony. The river from which the valley takes its name rises in the Kilgorris groups of hills in and near the south-west corner of the Masai Reserve. The Oyani enters South Kavirondo at a point about 1°0' South by 30°35' East; it flows in a general north-westerly direction through the Kanyamkago location and joins the Kuja River about eighteen miles above the junction of the Kuja and the Gori Rivers.
