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.

500 too much for hiking?

-: 500/- for fare n water??

Lung'afa: 500 is too much? Let me do a quick update cause I can see guys are paying.

Transport could take App 150 to and fro

The band will be payed for. Each person 50/-

We shall offer a few snacks  - for drummers and those who will not have carried snacks - Take 50 per person

We look forward to making Vihiga Hikers stable. So in every activity we expect a person to pay 200/- for development.

We remain with 50 Bob. This is such money the hiking team would put to use in situations where a member is in need, total amount not adding, paying hosts, miscellaneous, activity organising... Etc

So a Hiker should not complain but show more commitment. For future activities may charge more. And it is not about money, but commitment. So that we may keep committed and grow steadily.

With Thanks

-: Wot does that development entail?

Lung'afa: The near future needs us to have a few things...

- Stable Hiking items as tents, lamps, bags
- Facilities as a bicycle added for the group. We need them
- Ability for some hikers to reach out to other hiking teams
- The need for a future means of transport, like a vehicle.

- It is possible but we got to start SMALL. And we should start now, not tomorrow.

With Thanks

-‬: Okay no argument, very good ideas but don't they have participation?

-Lung'afa: Participation? We always have one to one talks with individuals.

Sometimes crowds pull sideways. Yet we try to be welcoming and answer the questions. You will find us ready to listen.

So the payments are in line with the HIKER'S VISION.
