Heavy responsibilities for elder aunt among the Logooli

With Seenge Fonesi. She is the elder grand daughter of Isagi and elder daughter of Amugasya. She is often present in functions involving the family of Amugasya. Pic taken on 18/4/2024. The elder sister soon becomes the elder aunt. It is this “seenge munene” (elder aunt) tag that she is tied to many cultural responsibilities – back home. To her marital family she may appear as any other woman, but she is not so in the eyes of her people. Marriage does not steal her away as it would happen with other daughters of the old man. To her, as days go and the old man and woman of the estate are dependents, she becomes increasingly present.  Her brothers also need her for almost all traditional markings. They are marrying, she needs to welcome the new wife. They are giving birth, she needs to come to midwife or “bless” the new born. They are paying dowry she needs to lead the women delegate. There is a conflict she needs to come for a hearing.  And many others. Traditions does not expect her to

Again, Spanner in the works

Hustler 2018 Saniaga: What is the purpose of the group

Govedi Muzami: Spanners in the works😂. Visit the Saniaga blog.

Lumadi Jenyeka: Govedi that's a very Seniour Counsel you're addressing btw, he's new to the group and deserves a proper answer.

Govedi Muzami: He is a Saniaga bro.

Govedi Muzami: I'm sorry because you also don't know who I am

Govedi Muzami: Tuwache madharau chee

Lumadi Jenyeka: We started in 2017 as a community based group but have since diversified to start Saniaga Sacco. Under the CBO we already have a library/resource center in Wangulu.We hope through books and games,the computers,mentorship etc the resource center can help   children and young people to develop both socially and intellectually and indeed be of use to society as they grow.Through the resource center we hope to scout bright and needy kids that can get assistance to further their education through Saniaga scholarship program.This particular program is still work in progress.

We hope to establish as many of the resource center throughout the county as well.

Govedi Muzami: We are trying to just each other Lulu

Lung'afa: Hello Lumadi, we have in the past had the problem of people coming in and asking us 'what is our purpose'.  In a way the question is a demanding one. Rather a call, a proper need to be informed should have been put across. 

Well, even from the name, the senior council calls himself HUSTLER 2018. How 'senior' is he? 

Hustler, let me call you we talk. Thanks.

Govedi Muzami: Titles don't matter ama should we address ourselves with titles wah🤣

Lumadi Jenyeka: The SACCO is just beginning. The contribution s you see above are to help us  get base funds for the SACCO and brainstorm the projects we can begin with on the AGM to be held at the Wangulu library on 29th this month.If you can please attend.

The purpose of the group is economic and social empowerment.More information is archived at www.blogspot.com

Govedi Muzami: Pole Lulu. This forum has everybody....kindly don't amplify it. We are meeting for the AGM

Lumadi Jenyeka: I believe I have answered the two new members I added myself.Have a good day.

Govedi Muzami: Kunyi ni vasaniaga kandi love vurahi. Whether ndasoma anoho dave koveye vasaniaga vaya oh

Govedi Muzami: Lumadi karibu. Kwagane evohole we chit chat further

Lung'afa: Lumadi is your young sis Govedi. Be veeery gentle. 😃😃

Govedi Muzami: Garaha guga🙈

Govedi Muzami: In this forum kove vuza vasaniaga. We have all and sundry but no titles tafadhali. This is my family regardless of your position and academic status. We are positively discriminating our own family members here.

Mudengani Kisia: I think this is improper, it's also good to know who we are in life, @⁨Govedi Muzami⁩ I think you taking the issue too far, you can also introduce yourself and tell you are. I like it when we know tuko na watu wa nguvu hapa. Ama namnaa gani 😁

Sheila Idala: Vasaniaga vosi ni watu wa container nguvu. Kwidura dave

Mudengani Kisia: Yes yes yes, hii group ni ya power sana, I can see the future bright here 😇

Mudengani Kisia: Wakileft mnawarudisha

Ngana Lubanga: It would have been in order to introduce yourself to members upon joining. We would not know who you are if your name is hustler. You don't need to be the hustlers spokesperson. I joined three weeks ago and made all the members know who I am. I think that would have been in order isn't it. I didn't however mention my profession but at least members got to know the origin of Patrick Ngana. So the senior counsel can speak for himself not through a spokesperson. Vuchee vasaniaga vooooosi

Mudengani Kisia: I did not mean to get this far, haina noma, case closed 😊
