Notes

Abraham and Alex B met five Buluvu community leaders. The chairman Mr Bumali thanked the community members for taking care of trees in this dry season which he said that since June this year they have not received rain. The members are watering the trees. Concerning coronavirus he said that they lost one community in the center near where they meet,he was sick of high blood pressure but when he was taken to the hospital he contracted coronavirus and he died. Abraham and Alex B told the members that they can not meet as they used to do before because of coronavirus, they have to come up with ways how they will be communicating to the members because they want all to be at the same page. Mss Joweriya one of the leader said that they need to form two groups and she called them A and B so that Kibo will be meeting the leaders then leaders will take responsibility to communicate to the rest of the members. She said that within the community many people gather for funeral ceremonies but they do it illegally. They decided that they will have two groups A and B whereby the chairman Mr Bumali will be responsible for group A which meets at the center and Mr Kawanguzi Stephen will lead group B, they know that the meeting can not exceed twenty members. Abraham and Alex B encouraged them to keep watering the trees as they pray God to give them rain and for the next meeting they will move home to home checking the trees.
