- Notes
- Jessica and Suzan went to Naibowa to follow up on the smearing of the buildings, stove usage and construction of the firewood storages in the kitchens. When they arrived there, they went to the group chairperson’s home who warmly welcomed them, and before walking around the village, he informed Kibo staff about some challenges the members were facing while carrying out the program activities such as the rains which had washed off all the dirt smeared on some buildings and destroyed some facilities. He said that most of them had therefore posed a bit until the rains stopped. Later after,they stood up and walked around the village while monitoring some facilities in some homes. A few members were found cooking on the three stones open flames after reporting that the smoke was not coming out of their kitchens because the stoves were built a wrong wind direction. Jessica and Suzan advised them to cut grass and build new stoves after spotting the right wind direction which would let the smoke come out from the kitchen. She also requested them to take out the old three stones from the kitchens and effectively begin cooking on only the new improved saving stoves. Kibo staffs encouraged all the members to always see that they repaired and smeared their facilities immediately the rains stopped, for this would help them live a happy healthy life with their families. The members were thankful for the visit and advice given to them that day and promised to do so as soon as possible.
