Njovu (Elephant) Clan
- Omuziro
- Elephant (njovu)
- Akabbiro
- Hippopotamus (nvubu)
The Njovu clan takes the elephant as its omuziro, the primary totem. Its akabbiro, the secondary totem, is recorded as Hippopotamus (Nvubu). Drawn from Roscoe (1911); this page grows as further sources are reviewed.
Roscoe (1911), listing the clans of Buganda with their totems, records the elephant (Njovu) as the omuziro of this clan, with Hippopotamus (Nvubu) as its akabbiro. Spelling follows Roscoe’s 1911 transcription and awaits native-speaker review.
