  • Mutira Mission (1907-2011): the Birth of a Christian Empire in East Africa

    Mutira Mission (1907-2011): the Birth of a Christian Empire in East Africa

    Mutira Mission (1907-2011): the birth of a Christian empire in East Africa Julius Gathogo Department of Philosophy and Religious Studies, Kenyatta University, Mombasa Campus, Kenya Abstract The tiny Mutira village in the then Ndia Division, Kirinyaga County of Kenya, East Africa, began as a Church Missionary Society (CMS) station, between 1907 and 1908 after Rev AW McGregor bought land from the locals. The mission work could not however take place until the end of 1912, as resistance by some dissatisfied locals forced the European mission team to temporarily abandon Mutira mission and migrated to the neighbouring Kabare and Kigari missions. This article begins by surveying the political history of Kenya, from 1895 when it was made a British protectorate and from 1920 to 1963 when it was made a British colony, and also during its post independence times (1963 onwards). The article sets out on the premise that the birth of Christianity in Africa during the 19th and 20th centuries came after a painful labour. In other words, European missionaries, with the help of a few Africans, who midwifed this painful birth deserve our special attention, as it is through them that a Christian empire was born in Africa. Introduction From the ancient times, east African coast has been visited by sailors, merchants and traders from the East. In particular, the fleets of the Phoenicians and of King Solomon frequented east African shores. The book of first Kings in 1 Kings 10: 22 is a clear testimony to the aforesaid statement: For the king [Solomon] had a fleet of ships of Tarshish at sea with the fleet of Hiram.

    Economic Evaluation of Integrated Management of Fruit Fly in Mango

    Economic Evaluation of Integrated Management of Fruit Fly in Mango Production in Embu County, Kenya Kibira M1, Affognon H2*, Njehia B1, Muriithi B2, Mohamed S2, Ekesi S2 1Department of Agribusiness Management & Trade: Kenyatta University P.O Box 43844-0010, Nairobi – Kenya 2International Centre of Insect Physiology and Ecology (icipe), P.O Box 30772-00100, Nairobi- Kenya *Corresponding author: Tel: +254729909853; Email: [email protected] or [email protected] Abstract This paper evaluated economic benefits of managing mango infesting fruit flies in Embu County, Kenya using Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategy that composed of Male Annihilation Technique (MAT), protein bait spray, releases of exotic parasitoid Fopius arisanus and the use of augmentorium. The Difference-in-difference (DD) method was used to assess the impact of the mango IPM on magnitude of mango rejection and insecticide expenditure and net income. The study revealed that on average, mango IPM participants had approximately 54.5 percent reduction in magnitude of mango rejection; spent 46.3 percent less on insecticide per acre and received approximately 22.4 percent more net income than the non participants. These imply a high economic benefit from the application of the fruit flies IPM technology and mango farmers would profit significantly if the intervention is expanded to widely cover other mango growing areas in Kenya. 1. Introduction 1.1. Background Mango (Mangifera indica L.) is the third most important fruit in Kenya in terms of area and total production (FAO, 2009). In the country, the crop is mainly grown by smallholder farmers as a source of food to meet their dietary (vitamins and mineral) needs and as a major source of household income.
