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.

The Sacco as an idea in its formative stages

Lung'afa: Right brothers and sisters. 

The SACCO is an idea that is still in its formative stages. No step has yet been made. Not yet registered, no approvals whatsoever. We only have Saniaga CBO functioning. 

The SACCO is an idea that will be discussed come December AGM (29-12-2018). Then it shall be launched with in-charge members and other modalities of payments and future engagements. 

You may ask, why then the contributions? We are contributing to show commitment to the Sacco idea. That as we sit to speak of it, we already have willing members. The monies will start us off as part of initial personal savings. The meeting will decide how much will be for registration and how much for timely contributions. We started  with 2500/- mark because the idea was born here back in August (500 a month since then to Dec). 

It were good that all of us be part of this initial process. Spread the word to families and all interested. By no time we shall all be at par and aimed for greatness. 

- Let us talk.

Baba Ndanyi: I would wish to appeal to the Saniaga family to embrace the Sacco idea, those who have not yet joined, please do so as a matter of solidarity with family members, those who have joined, bravo to all of you, please aim at having at least 3k by the time we launch end of this month. You will be doing one great thing in your life that will greatly benefit many  generations ahead of us, good evening. We also need to be at least 30 people to make a Sacco, I believed we can manage at least 50, it's not hard.
