Dear Listers
We had an incredibly successful digital village trip.
We visited a pasha in mbumbuni.
We visited five other digital villages in athi river, machakos, masii, and wote town.
MOST IMPORTANTLY--
We brought 10 packets of Uji, 14 bags of Ugali flour, 9 containers of oil, and one container of beans to Wote Town. The counselor, Joseph Musau and the chief of wote took us to three very needy families. One family, the father was in a wheelchair. In another family, the grandmother was blind in one eye, there were eight children (including a newborn) and no father, and the family had not eaten in two days. The newborn was named Neema.
We were able to bring enough food to feed these three families for nearly a week each. We presented the food directly to the families.
There is not a problem with food production in Kenya. There is a problem with distribution. There is not a problem of good will in Kenya. There is a problem of political leadership.
Back to ICTs, we are really hoping that others in the Kictanet community will take up the guantlet, and help us finish our national audit of digital villages and pashas.
Regards, Rigia
