That's my problem with them.

Pls how did u get this info?
Rumu means children, those names attached to the 'rumus' are names of Pple. Bush is ohia,for instance,take Rumuokwurusi,it means the children of okwurusi, inside rumuokwurisi, u will find areas with such name as mgbori,mgbuamadi,rumuwokerebe,Rumuorianwon,mgbuche etc,mgbu is hamlet or settlement or something (not too sure) but it certainly does not mean bush.
