Notes
Introduction Manuela had planned to go and teach the community members about Puberty and Adolescent stage because it has been a concern in this village because when parents see their daughter and sons changing in size or growing bigger for example the girls they think they are ready for marriage which is not true. If the boys started speaking in deep voice, developing mescals, girls developing breast, hips and bums they think it’s time for them to get married and even the youth think so sometimes more especially those one who did not attend Life Skills lessons. Overview When Manuela reached the village, she did not find anybody at the meeting point, but on the other side she saw groups of people gathered waiting for a means of transportation going for burial in another village. On waiting, one of the community member came and told Manuela that today instead of teaching us today we are going to have a committee meeting about Kibo program because there are issues in this village about life skills program . Immediately after few seconds the leaders came that some of the community members are complaining that they are being given money and other gifts but for them they are not given so they wanted Manuela to the community members the truth because they type of the work they are doing is charismatic work not to be paid. During this meeting Manuela was not happy with the information they were telling her immediately she told the leaders to hold a village meeting and let them tell the members that she has never given any leaders money or other gifts. And if they want to continue with life skills program it should be out of good will, because they are almost coming to the end of this program because apparently they are in the last topic. Finally, Manuela decided to leave but she told them she will keep on following up with them through phone calls to find out how far.
