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.

Hi all, I have been following the discussion...


-: Hi all, I have been following the Saniaga discussion with very keen interest, I am almost concluding that our ancestors were ambitious and adventurous in nature and also responsible, they kept track of what they did and where. Look at this real case scenario; one of my brothers sired a child with a Portuguese lady 12 years ago, the lady went back to Portugal with the boy. That boy will grow into a man and will sire generations of Saniagas in Europe with no trace of black or colored skin, the boy has a Saniaga name Ndasia! This is a true situation.

-: If I may ask madam Jeska, about DNA and weaker offsprings as a result of marriage between relatives, looks like Saniaga knew about this very early, that's why they would cast their nets far and wide!!🤓🤓🤓

-: Let us keep adding our thoughts. We are going to use it in our researching.

All is titled and archived @ saniaga.blogspot.com

-: Yes Lungafa, as much as it may look, feel or sound unconvincing..... file/archieve everthing, we will get answers

-: By the way my late maternal grandpa had migrated to Kigumba and only brought part of  the family back to Kenya during Idd Amin’s rule in Uganda. Whoever is going to assess and give us the church renovation quote was probably born in Kigumba. Sidika

-: @Lung'afa
Adventure in its finer perspective! Ask Saniaga origi!! 😎😎😎

-: I make trips there, Kigumba as late as last year but not on research but to bury those there. If a contingency needed, necessitating a trip, things can be organised

-: The first Ebola breakout in Uganda in the 1980s happened in the middle of these Kigumba Saniagas, consuming a whole family living one survivor only  - Lumumba and 32 orphans a place called Kaduku, the place I visit. Lumumba's family were neighbours to the Agesa family that I occasionally visit. Lumumba took care of the orphans with some help from the Red Cross, but help eventually fizzled out, but them children all are now grow up into man and women married with children, another generation of Saniagas formed.  Lumumba is still alive with a story to tell of how he escaped from hospital to survive Ebola!!!! His narration of evens would make you ask... what really was this thing... Ebola????

-: Maybe an identity @Lung'afa . Might our first father have married a kalenjin gal as result of wondering? Have you known who the wife to the first family was?
