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?

Lung'afa: Oh God, me just trying. Prof Luvai can correct me here.  If supported we can do great things. I remember in March when I did a five day Izava walk and found that Saniagas had lands as from Seremi to Yala! 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
