I got myself back home because of Covid -2019 and I had to find a way of giving back to my community. I wanted to use the camera in my hands to make a difference... That is how I ended up with my Charity photography project as a way of my resilience in my community.


This is the first and one of the many stories still in my gallery.


A mother's plea


Alex Mokua and Damacline Bochere are blessed with three sons.Thadeus, Frank and Ian are in primary level .Ian,the last born, Lives with her grandmother as a way of easing the family burden.




Un.org


Alex,born in 1982,began his football career ,early in his teen age.While playing football, in one of his many matches, he broke his leg.Life was heading downward.Afterwards, while he was a way in a distant town called Migori,he was hit by a Migori police vehicle.He was again involved in another motorbike accident rendering him unstable.His both legs got badly affected and had to be taken to a special health facility. He now has metal plates placed in his leg.


He can barely walk.But still,that doesn't deter him from struggling to make ends meet for his family.As the wife gives us the story,the husband is away in some family looking after their herd of cattle so as to earn a living.She has no job.


The mom is pleading for help.There is no shamba at all.Theirs is a small hut in an unfenced compound,with no income generating activity.They survive.





As we bid the family bye, she only wishes and hopes that God will find her someone to ease their struggle. The sun is setting, we have to leave,soon the land will be covered in darkness.


But even more importantly, a call for humanity has been made.

    As a photographer... I not only do commercial photography, I also want and wish to use the camera in my hands to make a difference.

    There is always something to do.I(We) just need both the heart and mind in it.

The Maasai Rose Flower

The Maasai are among the most popular ethnic groups in Africa. They have received  international recognition, over the years, because of their dress code(shuka) and distinctive customs. The Nilotic group, occupies the southern, central and northern parts of Kenya. They also occupy Northern Tanzania. During the early centuries ,they were known to be fearless hunters and warriors. The "Maa people",as they are often referred ,have over the years  earned their(majority of them) livelihood as herdsmen. In Kenya, they were among those communities that didn't resist the regime of the white man.They readily accepted and collaborated with the foreigners. Even for the early explorers and visitors, who set their feet on the Maasai soil, the Maa people were so welcoming. Articles and manuscripts have been written of their hospitality. All these factual theories remained theories ,throughout my primary and secondary school, till I met "The Massai Rose Flower" at the tertiary...
