I woke up early around 5am to inform other farmers who were selected by David of New Castle University who had been at Kasinthula doing his research on Fairtrade issues. After breakfast, I left for the work. At around 9am, general manager, Brian Namata brought his mobile phone. “Hold on” said Brian. He gave me his mobile phone. I responded the call, grateful he was Philippe of Ubuntu Cola who was speaking to me asking my health status and some developmental projects, which have been implemented through Fairtrade premium funds. Philippe Sibaud also congratulated me for passing rural community development, diploma 1 and wished me all the best together with my family.
David Philips interviewed some farmers at Chinangwa village. At around 2pm, David, Bright, Felix and I went to Chinangwa village following David’s programme to interview some farmers on Fairtrade issues. He interviewed three female farmers and lastly scheduled to meet male farmers the following two days.
Bought relish. After David’s interview, I accompanied him on the vehicle he was using as I was directing him the way to the trading center. He dropped me at the trading center and I went to the butchery to buy goat meat for supper’s relish.
