"The Bantu Nyika, or Nika, language of southeastern Kenya
comprehends a number of dialects.   Both the Ribé and the Rabai
dialects are spoken in the Rabi area, slightly inland from Mom-
basa.   Other forms of Nyika include Conyi, Duruma, Jibana, and
Kauma.   KiDigo and KiGiryama (q.v.) are closely related tongues,
but variant enough to be considered distinct languages."
