My second year as a farmer

Today I harvested some vegetables for a friend As the farm greens to near black and the harvest is only a month or two away, I forget that it was all tiresome to do this. The digging, weeding, fear for destructive rain or sun – and moles. Moles ate up lots of my cassava. You will be seeing the stems look tall and promising – a lie. Some wind will blow and it will be down. Only a root supplying water. Beneath there is nothing. The little devil is somewhere else, eating up sweet potatoes tubers. I can now trap them. Though for what? Had they had an economical benefit the better. But to wait and see a sinking maize stalk, bean plant, kale or pawpaw stem – everything you plant the mole wants to partake. Were they disciplined I would have saved some farm produce. But it eats little sugarcane offshoots! Does not care about tomorrow. With more you can give out. I have mom who always asks what is there. She comes and harvests sweet potatoes, uproots mito and mutele, plucks zimboga and li

Who to protect the trees at the Library?

Musimbi Wangulu: Admirable effort, Mheshimiwa's tree hasn't been protected, kindly water it, fence it and label species. It will tell the history.

Lung'afa: Someone is sleeping on job. I go make sure it is done today.

Dr Sidika: Good morning all. I think Margaret Musimbi is on the school ground and should organize the watering of the tree. We should be proactive. Kindly do initiate a Library process in your neighborhood and we shall give you group support. The group members gave minimal support but this being our initial, we felt it's a good example to the rest. Where are the group scholars? We missed you at Wangulu.Please initiate something in your locality. Sidika

Dr Sidika: Margaret Please water the planted trees. I decided to give you the books for your classes because they might not be able to go to the Library. Please look after them well. Sidika

Musimbi Wangulu: Kindly understand I might not afford the time, the library asst. Can help the community during cleaning of the library. It is easier that way. What surprises me is that I should do it because I humbly accepted to do Mheshimiwa a favour of representation. It beats logic that fencing has not been done, am not aware who fenced the other one you planted. Actions could send wrong signals. Let's respect each other in this course of life.

Baba Ndanyi: @⁨Lung'afa⁩ 
Those two trees are pur babies, we have to take care of them, they are historical monuments, very significant to our progression. Please inform those manning the library that the trees are part of their charge.

Musimbi Wangulu: 👍👍👍the elder has spoken

Dr Sidika: @⁨Musimbi Wangulu⁩, I just gave a suggestion of involving the students at the school. If it's not possible, kindly indicate so. There is no disrespect at all. After all I came up with the Library project after your visit to my parents home with the request of assistance in your work at the school. So I kindly request you to mobilize any available resource to help with the project. I have no other intentions. If you clearly don't want to be involved, say so! it's still fine with me. Sidika

Dr Sidika: I have no idea that one is fenced! Please organize for both to be fenced. You are on the ground. Sidika

Musimbi Wangulu: How long does watering two trees take surely. Let the assistants help. The school can help in any other engagements. Thanks!

Dr Sidika: Thank you for your comment. I don't want to go on with the discussion. Sidika

Lung'afa: 😊. The trees are well. There is a lot of water at the Library that can supply the whole of Wangulu Market. No worries. 

I was at the library yesterday and called the guy who was to fence. Again. Again. Again I will call and if nothing happens I will do by self. 

@⁨Dr Sidika⁩ , you got the books for the Library. But you took them to the school. It may have been a good gesture but you cannot followup. Were they at the library you would have hands on. This is because the school is a separate institution. And in future if anything is accessed by the name of S-CBO let it come to S-CBO! 

Have a working day, won't you?
