The final presentation of Vulnerable and Marginalized People’s Plan (VMPP) took place recently at Cherengany Forest Station in Mt Elgon. The participatory plan consultant of Natural Resource Management (NRM) Mrs. Margaret Ombai of Tacitus Ltd made her final presentation to the Marakwet stakeholders after several consultations with the communities about management of forest and water reserves. The Project Manager of NRM, Mr Yakhama Inganji, accompanied by the Zonal Forest Manager for Marakwet Mr. Alfred Nyaswabu, the Cheregwany/Sengwer Community Chairman, Mr. R. Tekeroi and the Vice-Chairman, Mr. Paul Kibor were also present during the presentation.

In his speech Mr. Inganji reminded the communities that the work of the committee is to act as a bridge between the people and Kenya Forest Service (KFS) in ensuring that the agreement reached on VMPP is realized. The mandate of NRM will be to ensure that the Vulnerable Marginalized Groups (VMGs) of Marakwet West and East receive culturally appropriate social and economic benefits like training of farmers, beekeeping and ecotourism among other benefits. The plan will also stipulate ways on how to deal with potential adversaries on indigenous people. On his part, Mr Nyaswabu urged the communities to stop criminal activities like logging of trees if they want to benefit from the project that is meant to upgrade their livelihoods.

  3. GET OUT OF FINANCIAL MESS WITH THE HELP OF drbenjaminfinance@gmail.com

    I have been in financial mess for the past months, I’m a single mum with kids to look after. My name is REBECCA MICHAELSON, and am from Ridley Park, Pennsylvania. A couple of weeks ago My friend visited me and along our discussion she told me about DR BENJAMIN OWEN FINANCE of (drbenjaminfinance@gmail.com); that he can help me out of my financial situation, I never believed cause I have spend so much money on different loan lenders who did nothing other than running away with my money. She advised, I gave it a try because she and some of her colleagues were rescued too by this Godsent lender with loans to revive their dying businesses and paying off bills. so I mailed him and explain all about my financial situation and therefore took me through the loan process which was very brief and easy.. After that my loan application worth $78,000.00USD was granted, all i did was to follow the processing and be cooperative and today I am a proud business owner sharing the testimony of God-sent Lender. You can as well reach him through the Company WhatsApp +19292227023 Email drbenjaminfinance@gmail.com
