Group Profile
Saniaga Mweremi Self Help group is remembered to have been active from the year 1993. It was Mr. David Mudogo who among others lead the formation of the group as they tried to bring people migrating to the area together for a productive association. It was the time that 'scheme' settlement was increasingly accepted due to land pressure in ancestral locations. It is Mr. Simwa Ben who acted as a treasurer at the time while Mr. Musa Ayodi secretarised.

In the year 2000 there was a slight change of leadership with only Mr. Otwere Stephen becoming the secretary. The group had them made greater advancements in self sustainance by leasing land to plant maize and championing 'sheep' merry-go-round. Sheep were given to members to enable them prosper in their agricultural activities.

In 2013, with increased national need to have youths and women participate and equally benefit from available opportunities, a women group called Saniaga Women Self Help Group was registered with Gladys Benja as the chairperson. It derived initials members from within and aimed to recruit friends and relatives. This did not affect the the normal stream of group functionality because the existing group had been registered as Mweremi Self Help Group. By meeting on the same day and streamlining both group activities, they adopted the umbrella, 'Saniaga Mweremi Self Help Group'.

It is table banking, agrees everyone in the group, that has greatly helped the members save and loan for their own activities. The group looks forwards to rearing dairy goats and securing land for purposes of future growth.
