Many of the Bantus in Kenya are mixed with Nilotes and Cushites, but their language and culture is still Bantu and often it is their majority ancestry. Kikuyus, Merus, and Kambas (inland/highland) have the most of that non-Bantu ancestry among Kenyan Bantus, Luhyas (lake victoria) and Mijikendas (coastals) generally the least.

I heard most bantus are 30-40% West African.

It depends.

The ones in Angola and Mozambique are like 97%.

Mainly the ones in Namibia, South Africa, Botswana (some Khoisan for the aforementioned) Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, parts of East Congo and North Tanzania (some Nilotic and/or Cushitic for the aforementioned) seem to have some pre-Bantu ancestry.

The ones in other Bantu countries/areas are largely near total replacement populations (especially Angola).

I heard that Khoisan/bushman have Eurasian ancestry brought by early Cushitic-speakers who lived in East/south-east Africa. That they got their genes for lighter skin from this group, is that correct?

Majority of those coons are Nairobi raised Dhaqan Celis. If their was animosity between Great Britain and Somalia how many Somalis would be cussing Somalia for “their country”.

Reer Garissa iyo Reer Mandera are extremely Reer Baadiyo and mostly identify with just being Somali. This goes with many other kenyan ethnic groups just in lesser numbers than Somalis.

I feel Kenya would be a better country once it has a majority Somali population
