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.

My cows are alright

I have been follow the conversation on this page, ingine kali, please be fair to each other, allow blood to be thicker than water. 

I picked on the sentiments expressed by Erick on the yoghurt project that seem stalled; somewhere on this page I had indicated that I am doing the project alone and if anyone wants to join me, they are free to do so. My place does not dry up as you may think, I have springs at two different locations on my farm, I offer grazing ground to a few neighbors, I milk two of my four dairy cows; to cut the long story short, I have 15 to 16 litres of milk every day consistently, this will increase when the other two cows calve, besides, those who graze on my land are willing to sell to me their milk so I can get 50ltrs+ when I need it.

Right now using simple technics I can make not more than 5 litres consistently every day and sell it locally, it just costs my time. If I want more then I would require equipment that I don't have.
The same supply of water from the springs I have a fish pond with 5,000 growing fish now and large size greenhouse, etc etc; I am just insisting that my place does not dry up, I have pumps to sambaza the water anywhere I want.
