Re: [youthagendayln] Why villagers oppose Yala rice project

From: Chris Owala

Dear Odhiambo,
Thanks for sharing your concerns on Dominion. Its important to know that lake Kanyaboli is the only ox-bow lake around and livelihood of people around Yala swamp have been interfered with in the name of development. For now I will just give information for your reading that can enable you make inform choice. I know you don't reside in Yimbo. You are a nairobian and muzungu was telling you what they wanted you to hear. Below is a story we did together with a friend of mine who accompanied me to Yala swamp in December 2005.
