Can anyone tell me which class kiranja is from? I assumed it was ki-vi, but the agreement is wrong for the adjective (and the word is not in the dictionary at https://africanlanguages.com/swahili/).
It is in TUKI Kamusi: http://www.elimuyetu.co.tz/subjects/arts/swa-eng/k.html
Like all nouns referring to living beings, the agreements are as for a-/wa- class nouns, but the plural is viranja.
