Heavy responsibilities for elder aunt among the Logooli

With Seenge Fonesi. She is the elder grand daughter of Isagi and elder daughter of Amugasya. She is often present in functions involving the family of Amugasya. Pic taken on 18/4/2024. The elder sister soon becomes the elder aunt. It is this “seenge munene” (elder aunt) tag that she is tied to many cultural responsibilities – back home. To her marital family she may appear as any other woman, but she is not so in the eyes of her people. Marriage does not steal her away as it would happen with other daughters of the old man. To her, as days go and the old man and woman of the estate are dependents, she becomes increasingly present.  Her brothers also need her for almost all traditional markings. They are marrying, she needs to welcome the new wife. They are giving birth, she needs to come to midwife or “bless” the new born. They are paying dowry she needs to lead the women delegate.

Vana vitu vosi hosi hamuveye, vuchee...

We are good without forwarded video clips and messages unless you are convinced it gonna inform the group.  This is in encouragement that everyone actively participate in the group. Sharing is caring though it is passive (what we may call entertaining messages.)

Focused, We request those who haven't registered to Saniaga CBO do so by sending Ksh 500 to @⁨Metrine Saniaga⁩, Treasurer. Done, each member is requested to give 1000/- shares money  for a project that will be one of AGM's agenda come December. The earlier we mobilise resources, the easier we may find. And additionally, T-shirts are on production.  Get one at the time you need it.

We would do better if we all teamed up voluntarily to the Teams provided for in the CBO. That would guide us and maximise on individual's input. It is as good as being a committed member. That way we shall wholly move along successfully.

Whoever needs more clarification, we are here to do that and have us move together.

Wish you a committed Monday, won't you?
