Wameru ni wakimbizi wa Kichaga

Niko kwa wameru na nawafahamu. Wameru hawana utamaduni wa kukaa ushemejini. Hata kaka au dada akioa au kuolewa huwa ngumu sana kwenda kukaa kwa dada au kaka. Hizo ni mila za watu wengine
Hii hata kwetu haipo
 
Lugha zao tofauti mtu wa tarakea asikilizan kabisa na Mtu wa marangu, na mtu wa marangu asikilizan kabisa na Mtu wa uru
Sio kwel mkuu uru marangu , old mosh na kibosho wanaelewana mno
 
The Meru people are said to have arrived to the slopes of the great mountain around 800 years ago coming from the Usambara Mountains in Tanga Region. According to the inhabitants, migration occurred back and forth throughout the region, and the Meru people should be viewed as a part of the bigger population inhabiting the entire Kilimanjaro Corridor. Upon arriving at the southeastern slopes of Mount Meru they were met by the hunter-gatherer group called the Koningo whom they absorbed into Meru society. The waMeru are known for their intensive agricultural practises.[1]

Today many descendants of Meru people still live in their homeland and Mount Meru and Arumeru District are named in their honor. Upepo wa kisulisuli is named after UMALEE in meru language.
