Luanda Reggae Defenders is a now a popular movement with roots in Vihiga and border Siaya and Kakamega counties Attention is brought to the manner and conduct the movement has gained fame and followers, mainly the Youths. The movement capitalizes on funerals. With a poor culture of putting the dead to rest, the Reggae Defenders have taken it by storm and rebranded the infamous ‘Disco Matanga’ – disco at funeral.

They have this huge old school sound system that is over buzzing to no clear reggae song - that they hire a pickup to carry - and it has a young DJ mainly standing there than mixing anything. Often, against the rules, the casket is grabbed from a hearse vehicle and tied to a motorbike. There it will be swayed and jerk breaked between other motorbikes on the narrow roads. That, is, how a fellow soldier, often a young dead, is mourned. ...

Don't be harsh, this how it all started..

-: Well for those of us who joined the group kitambo we started by tracing our roots where we came from our identity n so called relatives ie  avasaniaga vaveye ivunandi, vhu kumadzi etc
Then we had the pleasure to introduce ourselves to the 10th generation.

Then we stated our mission, vision, agenda na ndio hapo mang'ana Gi zisendi gaturira, officials were selected n asked to affirm their willingness, they did!
From here to those who joined later could pls ask for clarification of anything without bombarding the wall with feelings ‍♀ pls
It is also allowed to add more ' mature' leaders or to offer mentorship aside... Nyanzi nduguduze amang'ana yaga gosi mu llogooli Ku  Kuvhe voosi on the same page but it will take me a novel.

-: Kindly go to the blog brother. It is not fair to water down a groups effort. Kindly ask before blowing it up the wall. It really discourages the effort the likes of the Chairman and the interim crew. Remember these people are volunteering their time and to some extent resources. Let's use a kind and civil language when addressing issues here. We people (saniagas) from all walks of life. Personally if I felt the group is not addressing my agenda, I would leave without threatening to do so. We are here because we want to consolidate our efforts towards a better tomorrow. Excuse me for the rant.

-: .....and if you leave, we bring you back
