Bücher von Elizabeth Masiga Kakembo

In this (English version) volume, Elizabeth Masiga Kakembo draws together many contributors to create a book that preserves and expands on previous work by Abner Ekudu on the lineage and legacy of OMUTABONA LWANDE WESONGA and his descendants, as a branch of Abatabona.This unique work on ABATABONA is an important achievement, without parallel in the annals of the Samia Bugwe community. Even more broadly, few families anywhere can trace their ancestry from its origins in pre-biblical times to the present day.LWANDE WESONGA: A GENEOLOGY offers information updated to the latest generation. It traces individual from the origin to the present. Further, in the interests of preservation as well as an aid to other researchers, this volume also includes a facsimile copy of the original pages of Abner Ekudu's 1995 research.

This book is about the life of one pioneering Ugandan women: Miriamu Ojanjo Nakooli. It is the story about her life and her struggle to educate the people in her community during the last millennium. It highlights the impact of colonialism on the customs and traditions of some of the people in eastern Uganda and it evidences how women played a significant role in the struggle to educate their community. As a historical document, 'Miriamu Ojanjo Nakooli: The Pioneer' stands in defiance of the myopic men who tried to erase this story in order to minimise the memory of the impact and contribution of the visionary women within the church and wider community.
