Origin/Birth
It is unknown exactly when Chonganda was born: as he was not listed as made during the creation, he must have existed before it; however, he cannot have existed with Bumba before the Creation, because Bumba's vomiting occured from loneliness.

What we do know, however, is that during the creation of the universe, Chonganda created a plant described by all as marvellous, which created all plant life of the universe. As Bushongo mythology only attempts to explain how the universe was created, there are no sources stating what happened after the Creation.

Description
Chonganda is the second son of Bumba in Bushongo mythology, and is well-known for creating all plant life during the Creation. Not much else is known about Chonganda.
