The Kamnara of Sakwa are making ground to build for future generations

Greetings from the Kamnara of Sakwa! The Kamnara people of Sakwa on 27th December 2024 gathered at Village Park, Ajigo (near Bondo). Hosted by Kwaka Joseph, they hearkened to the consultative forum call, arriving in good numbers and early enough for a successful day. The gathering was chaired by Mr. Nying’ro James Onyango, a former (retired) assistant commissioner of Police. The introductions were excellent. The genealogies were mentioned in reverence, lengthy ones applauded. And courtesy of Enos Oyaya’s book, “Kamnara my people”, anyone who would need help had the documentation. Oyaya had launched the Kamnara book on 30th December 2022 at his home in Kamnara Mwalo, an event that gathered Vakamnara from far and wide. “What can we do that the generations to come will benefit from?” This was the clarion Mr. Kwaka Joseph called on all to fashion their minds to. And issues were raised in the fields of Education, health, agriculture, enterprise, politics and more that the swift dholuo would...

MOON; A life well lived

 I am happy to reach this end.It has been a moving cycle since 18/08/2015.

A life well lived needs no praises lest we offend in words. I am grateful to all who participated in the cycle. I know that sonsof soil are inquisitive to nature and life- just that needs in the present world may shift our commitment. It has been an eye opener and I am stronger for better posts. Keep posted.

All the posts are included below except todays- A life well lived. It was the last day and I could have seen a thinner vanishing cycle were it not for the clouds just when the phase was about. But I thank self that I have not been missed by the life- I lived and enjoyed the phases. The last one would not be a pain not to see when indeed I knew it would come and go.

From 18th to today 10th that summarizes a period of 24 days. An assumption would be two days plus. That is to conform to the Muslim calendar that is now in the 23rd Century or so. We have gained insights into what we knew not. I am interested in space even more and this will take me to more moon studies, the earth, stars and galaxies.

By the way I had a dream where I saw stars falling while I tried to spot a new moon. Unlike other times where the new moon is supposed to be in the West, I saw it in the East. It is ironical that my eyes in the dream went to the new moon (virtual) to see its glimpse. Dreams! I moved near the place and another star fell. I knew that the pieces would be very expensively rich if I collected them. Looking down where they fell, I saw a corrosive ground, like fizzing. The particles were in a reacting reducing-size. I tried to pick but they burnt my hands. They were growing small like diamonds in the movie blood diamond. I was still trying when the alarm to watch for the moon went on. There were only clouds.

In conclusion I may say that we can only dream what occupies our minds. The sea has never been contaminated by rivers- we can outstand the environment and make it. Dreams are lives that we may never live. Let this be a step to higher levels of thinking that would keep us away from simple thoughts and dreams.


Thank you!
