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. And issues were raised in the fields of Education, health, agriculture, enterprise, politics and more that the swift dholuo would...

Lack of a sexual partner as a disability

-: This article is from Swazi observer. I don't know what health problems they have to originate such an article. All I know is that fertility rate and population is low in those south countries. It could be due to previous apartheid restrictions to curb down the indigenous population. I could be wrong but I think the WHO article is insane!! Sidika

-: Oops,! Sorry Dr for mispelling your name but thanks for the highlight. I read and  thought it rudiclous if WHO sticks to such analysis then most humans are sexually disabled at a point in their life 😜😜

-: If one cannot see or they are blind, we refer to them as visually impaired or disabled, similarly the deaf, the lame, the mental case, etc all these cases are termed disabilities; why should we want to treat sexual inability differently, it is a disability and should be treated as such; doctors and researchers must look into such cases and come up with remedies; WHO must have done their research to come up with such conclusion!!

-: Hee...I now seem to hear you Chairman. It is like opening a can of worms! When was someone termed  "Kiziri" or "Kidwadi" in Lulogooli to he/she's discomfort in society and the feeling of inadequecy and/or inability?

-: @⁨Neccy Flossy⁩ 
Names like ikiziri, umguumba, ummboku, umulema, etc are all different forms of disabilities, these are conditions we have no control over, although the titles may sound derogatory and/or insulting but that's it

-: When mugumba or kiziri died before burial a Sharp Thorn preferable of " Kigunga nzuva"was pierced at her or his upper part (ha kikuri)between the batocks.Think about this

-: Kikururi not kikuri

-: Kikuururi nicho ikivirigani?!

-: Kigunganguva is a wild shrue with long thorns

-: Significance was to stop his /her ghost coming back to inherit the same

-: Rather sad, the more the disability the more the shunned to the grave. Death has its own tales.

-: Ikivirigani nikiritu na kikururi ni kikuyi
