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.

Angels and Demons by Dan Brown

Robert Langdon miraculously escapes death, flies strangely, doesn't die or get hurt, doing everything in a few hours to save Vatican, the home of churching, given Vetra to boost his scheming, balancing the world - matter and antimatter. Call the whole story some facade.

Extensive research he acknowledges before the blurb saying how he got the best of ambigrams and visited the secret of the places in Vatican. That doesn't make the idea being propelled authentic. You see, a writer can expose his flaws in ways that writing betrays his stands. Making one contradictory, shallow and verbose. It could be this article may  say something about the writer too.

The story is superb with suspense and ontime faults. Keeping the reader glued to a greater end that ends on a light note, none would shed a tear no matter the sentimentality of a reader. The Carmelago gets from the plane to the cross, the antimatter glows in the dark night, the whole world and cameras agape. Low moments that otherwise intended to serve as catch moments. Best learning points are none but reads about Bernini and angels, the poem...not the God-no-God talk. That only attracts a person who may not have earlier enjoyed Da Vinci Code, one of Dan's best works. Say anything against Vatican and you sell.

Though real, the horror the book feeds a reader is either leading to see Vatican as all time persecuted body and CERN as a failed institution by Kohler's actions. Not getting the antimatter back to CERN only to destroy Leonardo's life breaking invention turns humanity back, so back that Vetra wants a Yoga style with Robert, the rudemost of human engagements. The worst of labs!
