Gaika people
The Ngqika [ŋǃʱiːkʼa] or Gaika /ɡɑːˈiːkə/ are the royal clan of the Rharhabe Xhosa, who moved westwards over the Kei River, away from the Xhosa heartland. Historically, they are often contrasted with the Gcaleka Xhosa who remained behind in the Xhosa "Transkei".
In colonial times, the Ngqika lands were known as British Kaffraria. Later the Apartheid government gave them a form of independence as the former "Ciskei" homeland.
Their famous chief Mgolombane Sandile led most of the Rharhabe Xhosa in a series of frontier wars with both the Cape Colony and the British Empire.
Ciskei/Winterberg massacre
It was Gaika's people who at the end of 1834 poured into the Colony, killed forty white men (but spared women and children), burned the homes of 400 settlers, and looted hundreds of head of cattle and horses.

Did I Ever Tell You
by: Nick LacheyDid I ever tell you I'm better to have known you?
I don't want to leave you with the shadow of a doubt
Did I ever give you the strength you've given me?
And how can I begin to make each moment mean the most so you will see
I never loved you more then I do today
Sometimes life just seems to get in the way
It's been too long
I want to sit down and write for you a perfect love song
I want to shout it out in a silent crowd
I want to move you in a million ways
I said to you everyday did I ever tell you I love you that way
And did I ever tell you I'm better to have known you
I don't want to change you cause I proud of who you are
And should you ever question the pain we are going through
What I need to mention is that life just isn't living without you
You know that I want you more than anything
Sometimes I just forget to say what I mean
It's been too long
I want to sit down and write for you a perfect love song
I want to shout it out in a silent crowd
I want to move you in a million ways
I said to you everyday did I ever tell you I love you that way
I never loved you more than I do today
Sometimes its crazy life just gets in the way
It's been too long
I want to sit down and write for you a perfect love song
I want to shout it out in a silent crowd
I want to move you in a million ways
I said to you everyday did I ever tell you I love you that way
It's been too long
I want to sit down and write for you a perfect love song
I want to shout it out in a silent crowd
I want to move you in a million ways
I said to you everyday did I ever tell you I love you
