Description:Wednesday August 7, Mbii danêmbum ‘N:aankwódu. The boy’s father (Joseph) is from Yonga, but he grew up here and Abeleti (Rita Vyepyââ his mother was from there, and in Nkwodo clan). His father asked him to make a home at Yonga, but he was chased out by jealous locals putting chaa vyi on his gardens and killing chickens, and making him ill (Teyoo had offered him to settle under his wing, but the boy chose otherwise). Sickness might be Gheme pi or Kpede, i.e. witchcraft. He is married to a Damenu girl. He fled here, and the hearing basically decided that (a) he shouldn’t go back to Yonga, (b) he should start again in Abeleti where his family has land rights, (c) Lêmonga should give him traditional medicine. Kennis Kaambwa, Leo Mboo, Yidika, Taakê, Y’s uncles all in force: Regius Telewê summed things up. c. 2 hours for the hearing proper, then a 20 minute conversation after (it went on, but I skipped out to continue work).
