The Kamba (Akamba in the plural) are a Bantu ethnic group who live in the semi-arid Eastern Province of Kenya stretching east from Nairobi to Tsavo and north up to Embu, Kenya. This land is called Ukambani. Sources vary on whether they are the third, fourth or the fifth largest ethnic group in Kenya. They speak the Bantu Kikamba language as a mother tongue. The Kamba are predominantly based in the Machakos District of Kenya. The total population of the Kamba stands at approximately million. The Kamba are also called Kikamba, Kekamba, Masaku, Ukamba, Kitui and Mumoni
