Village Notes
Abraham met forty three Kishaike community members and they started discussing about writing their constitution which will govern them. Some members decided that they want to write in Lusoga then they will translate it in English. Abraham told them that it is fine because they all need to understand what is written in it, then it will be taken to the sub county CDO for approval. They are still struggling with the by laws they made some members were saying that if they are two in a family one can come to the meeting representing the other most likely the man and husband. They have to make sure everyone understands those terms and conditions, they are still struggling to make everyone comfortable. They said they are going start writing their constitution even if some things are not clear. They now have a total of eighty three thousand shillings to help them do the printing, photocopying etc. It was a long day of discussion but good.
