Facts,yesterday we a team of over 30 residents of Kabogor had to respect the legendary routine of waiting this river for 4 hrs,from 6:00 pm to 10:00pm to reduce its water before we risk crossing with school children,mothers,and the elderly.
From Emining town to Kabogor is 15 kms.
There are two deadly rivers, River Emining and this giant Esanda river.
It has been the prayer of the community year in year out to political leaders both national and county, the former and current MPs, MCA and well wishers to help the over 1000 people who have no choice but to cross this giant rivers to access life services at Emining town, eldama ravine,Kabarnet and Nakuru. During any rainy season like this,its next to impossible to access any emergency service at the nearby towns due to this double edge blessing.
To make it worse The great Perkera river at the western part is impassable because No bridge has ever been thought by any leader or well wisher despite decades of requesting.
Our grand parents bleeded with former leaders of the old larger south Baringo former honourables like Lawi Kiplagat, hon. Kiptanui,hon. William Morogo,hon. Joseph kipkapto,current mp Hon.Hellen sambili but completely nothing has ever been done to bridge the community to the wider Kenya through building of bridges.
All county council councillors did nothing too to elevate the peoples pain, from Councillor Chepkuto who served for over 15 years as area Councillor but no bridge, Councillor Aser served for five years but nothing happened, the county government came in the year 2013 and the people of Emining ward elected Hon. Geoffrey Chelal who is the current serving MCA,did his best and erected a foot bridge at Emining river- on Emining -Kabogor road but yet still,yes if people crosses Emining and come and wait for four to five hours at Esanda river is yet still painful.
Not that alone if any medical emergency arise from this community(Kabogor) how can they be served yet no vehicle can access the community especially during this rainy seasons.
Thinking to access Ravine-Saos -Tenges - Kabarnet road River Perkera says No, thinking to access Emining health centre,River Esanda and River Emining say No. To worsened the situation, Kabogor - Emining Road is totally impassable during any rainy season.
Nyongi age set generation prayed for road and bridge but no leader heed
Chumo age set prayed for road and bridge but no leader heed.
Sawe ageset generation come prayed the same prayer to the leaders of then but no one heed.
Korongoro ageset generation come prayed the same prayer to leaders of then but no one heed.
Kipkoimet ageset generation followed the suit but no bridge,no better road yet.
Kaplelach ageset are here but will you help us?
Kipnyigey are on leadership door but will you bother us?
Nyongi generation are warming up for leadership,a total generation cycle,will you help us?
Why, how can this happen in this generation,
No No No. The community have lost expectant mothers along the road sides people watching helplessly,the sick have suffered the same axe of death a long the road side.
Who can be touched by by this?
Who is this leader who can have a different heart,who is this leader who can do what it takes to save the community.
No,this must end in this generation of leaders.
We can not accept leaders to take the community for a ride.
