Syokimau Prophesied the coming of the white people to Kenya and also prophesied the construction of the Mombasa to Kisumu railway line. In her prophecy, she said she could see people of a different colour carrying fire inside waters which were later to be understood as white people in vessels carrying matchboxes and guns. She prophesied seeing a long snake that whose head was in the Indian Ocean and the tail was in Lake Victoria.
