The Clan Challenges
The Baise Kisuuyi/Baleemo Clan is one of the most civilised and educated clans in Busoga Howevwer, it’s paralyxed by a number of challenges which include:
1. Lack of Unity .
2. Lack of finances to run clan business
3. Cross generation divide
Antidote to these Clan Challenges
One of the best options to mitigate the above-mentioned challenges is to conduct routine fellowships and make sure we recover the love for our cultural heritage. Initiate 4 Sustainable Living will help a lot to implement this
