We don't even have an agenda for the meeting. A campaign needs to be started on the main Wall inviting them to the launching of the group and then use the occasion to sell our agenda for the group to those who'll heed our call and then start a serious recruitment drive. We need to come up with the agenda here. We need to act fast.

Lung'afa:. There was this thought and it would not auger well as I came to learn.

One, there are other Saniaga associations. We not less better. Two, we want strategic people to attend, not 'every one'. Three, we not splitting ground, there have before existed saniaga groupings. Importantly, we meeting to find focuse that would see us push saniaga agenda high.

That even if only 19 people came, those registered, it shall still be a good show!

Kibisu Joash: The more people we are the better we define our agenda economically and socially

Evans Muhali: You've answered my question. I rest my case

Lung'afa: As per our capacity, we shall do slow jamms at the moment. In the near future, sava sava!

Lung'afa: Dad Ndanyi has a problem with his phone. But he shall be informed of this discussion come morning.
