q2:Having been born in a community where women were not respected, I found it hard to respect my wife who is a new generation woman and believes in Gender equality. She also having been educated and very literate felt like a woman required some sense of respect. For me, though I was still holding the traditional ideas from my community that a woman required no respect. We frequently clashed and so I visited a friend of mine who knew me very well and tried to seek help from him since this guy told me my failures and weakness he had known concerning me since the campus days and he strongly advocated that I change or else my marriage would fail. I resulted and purposed to change and I started to show my wife deep respect and today we are doing fine in marriage.

q2: About six years ago,a friend mine shared an idea with me about starting a project which could improve education standards in the community and people's living standards;and also change their negative attitude towards development.In our discussion we enlisted problems as followers. -high rate of poverty at 25% -high rate of school of drop outs -high rate of illeteracy -high rate of unemployment -Lack of continunity in leaving -Lack of economic empowerment The problems highlighted above were enough to enable us turn a committee to ensure that the dream came to reality.In 2006,the committee sought political backing from the area M.P who gave us seed money to start money to start the project.The funds enabled the committee to renovate the library building,bought books.The Dept.of Adult Education gave the committee15,000/-for purchase of furniture,shelves and also books. The main objective was to cultivate a reading culture which is generally very poor in Kenya.This has created interest in youngsters who come to acquire skills in knowledge.The library receives many school going children especially during holidays.Some students excluded in their exams and have been admitted to National schools. The main problem is lack of funding to develop the project,increasing the reading space,purchase books,computers for centres documentation.The project was registered s SHINYALU COMMUNITY LIBRARY AND NOW IT IS SHINYALU COMMUNITY LEARNING RESOURSE CENTRE,based at SHINYALU MARKET in Kakamega East District.

q2:Most learned ladies in Kenya prefer not to be married. they like to be alone, saying that marriage is stressful and has lost meaning in the modern world. What surprised me is that we ladies want one to two children but not husband, going to their boyfriends, get pregnancies and reproduce. These ladies prefer babies but not husbands. The community will soon fail if single-parent families which is quite difficult to provide support in case the parent passed away.
