Notes
While in this village Chris encouraged the community members to nominate bank account signatories of good record, the community members adhered to Chris’ advice and indeed nominated candidates of good character , this was intended to ensure security of the community’s money . The exercise was quite long as the number of nominees was big which meant the community had to scrutinize each candidate to come up with the trusted bank signatories. The election exercise was very free and fair, community members cast their ballot on a secret ballot basis and everyone was satisfied. At the end of the day the community finally agreed with the bank signatories who included Kasoga Norah ( chairperson), kabweru, (vice chairperson), Farouk ( Member), Mujib ( secretary), they also chose centenary bank as a bank of their choice, the community members were very excited that they will for the first time have a bank account of their own. Chris will now go back to this community to introduce a new lesson on decision to receive goats.
