What is the translation of the word 'achievement' in several languages especially in native African languages?

You can't find a single word in Swahili that matches the English word "achievement," which implies a laudatory accomplishment. Maybe amefanya kitendo cha maana, he or she has done something of importance. The noun, therefore, would be kitendo cha maana kilichofanyika. It has to be a word for "act" modified to explain what kind of act.
This question raises another issue: what's a "native language"? Native would mean a language you're born with and brought up to speak. I'm a native English speaker, and two of my children are native Swahili-speakers. I think the person who asked the question is under the western race-centrist understanding that "native" means unwhite or unwestern. In Africa many people's native languages are English, French, Portuguese, or Arabic. Do you mean, in fact, African languages" or indigenous languages?
"Native" means you're born with it. It does not mean primitive or unwhite.
