Notes
Abraham met five Kigalama leaders and the purpose was to discuss about how they will continue meeting during this Coronavirus period. The chairman Mr Isaac Mwanje told the meeting that they stopped meeting because of Coronavirus. He said that members have been asking about what can be done to restore their group back as it was in the past. Some members complained that they have been not knowing what is going on in the group and now it is good that Kibo has remembered them and they want to start thinking how they will be meeting because of this Coronavirus period. Abraham thanked the leaders for struggling with Coronavirus but he encouraged them to form small groups so that they can maintain group discussion so that they do not leave anyone behind. He told them to keep government guidelines concerning Coronavirus, keeping two meters discussing, wearing masks and not exceeding ten people. The members said they are going to form small groups so that they will be discussing issues and bring them to the leaders who will be telling the groups the way forward. The chairman of the group was given a mask by Abraham and it was his first time wearing it and Abraham reminded the leaders to encourage the members to put on mask especially in public gatherings like hospitals, markets or burial ceremonies. They decided to meet Wednesday next week.
