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.

Patrick gets a clapping

Ndanyi Saniaga: While at this level of getting to know who is who where among ourselves, I realize Patrick has so much information that we need, I want us to sponsor him to do serious research on background and origin of Vasaniaga, Avalogoli and Avaluhya. I have been doing that but my engineering work has not given me enough time to interact with ppl with the right information, Patrick is way ahead, we'll not pay him a salary but we can facilitate him, any suggestions?

Luvai supported the initiative.  There are 32 articles on the river at saniaga.blogspot.com . So much is still unsearched for and Prof Mwanzi told me 'we are about to write our history'. I would wish we had a clear family hierarchy to all of us... that may take us outside Kenya in researching. The joy is in the information.

-All for our future generations

Lumadi Jenyeka: You're onto something here,I support this
