"Mama wa kambo amekuwa mamba"

Translation: The stepmother has become a crocodile

[vitoreiji]

What does this idiom mean?

[Ernst557459]

My guess: something impossible has happened. My stepmother was a crocodile
her whole life, so she could never become one :)

[giraffe__]

the tooltip notes show "crocodile" as meaning "is very strict".

[MfonUdoiny]

Perhaps she's turned into "the evil step-mom"

[SarahWesto5]

Love these answers!!!

[verdaserpento]

How could i know that is about stepmother and not a real mother?

[Moongirlor]

Mama wa kambo means stepmother

[Annika986737]
