KISWAHILI: TUMESUKUMA KIJANA ALIYECHUCHUMAA.

Chanzo cha msemo huo, chaangalia usukumaji wa kijana ambaye amechuchumaa. Kijana huyo, hukosa uimara wakati huo, kwa sababu akisumwa huanguka chini. Ndiyo maana watu husema kwamba, ‘tumesukuma kijana aliyechuchumaa.’

Msemo huo, hulinganishwa kwa mtu yule aliyetumwa kutekeleza jambo fulani, akaenda kimoja. Mtu huyo, husahau kazi aliyotumwa kwenda kuitekeleza kwa yeye kuamua kufanya kazi yake mwenyewe. Yeye hujiingiza kwenye kazi nyingine anayoipenda mwenyewe.

Mtu huyo, hufanana na kitendo cha kumsukuma mtu aliyechuchumaa ambaye huishia kuanguka chini, kwa sababu naye hutumwa kitu na kwenda kimoja, bila kukitekeleza kile alichotumwa kukifanyia kazi. Ndiyo maana watu waliomtuma husema kwamba, ‘tumesukuma kijana aliyechuchumaa.’

Msemo huo, hufundisha watu juu ya kuyatimiza vizuri majukumu waliyotumwa kuyatekeleza, ili waweze kupata mafanikio mengi katika maisha yao.

ENGLISH: WE HAVE PUSHED A SQUATTING YOUNG MAN.

The source of this saying is pushing a young man who was squatting. This squatting young man will not have enough power to resist the push and therefore can easily fall down. To describe a scenario that relates to effortless winning in a certain competition, one can use the saying that ‘we have pushed a squatting young man.’

The saying can be compared to someone who was sent to do something and never came back to bring feedback. He/she is someone who appears to forget his/her responsibility. Such a person does things according to his/her wish. People of such behaviour are being compared to the act of pushing a squatting person who will end up falling down.

The saying teaches people how to properly fulfill the tasks they are assigned to carry out. This will enable them to have achievements in their lives.
