As the Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock continues to roll-out its livestock stocking and restocking exercise countrywide, Fisheries & Livestock Minister, Prof. Nkandu Luo has continued to take keen interest in the activity and in most cases has graced the official hand-over of various livestock to the rural beneficiary households.
In recent months, the Minster has been reminding farmers of the spirit of Ubuntu – an African philosophy which emphasizes that “I AM BECAUSE WE ARE.” The characteristics of this philosophy include sharing resources and working together to uplift each other and prosper as a collective unit.
Through this spirit of Ubuntu, the sustainability of the stocking and restocking exercise is being assured through a practice that is known as passing-on the gift or simply pass-on.
