The
Ngorongoro! The world heritage property! There are possible several thing one
can anticipate of what the situation ahead, what make the place the world
heritage property, about its natural beauty and the livelihood of startling
people ahead. That an ideal is partly true, it’s a bare truth that few mile
ahead of entrance Gate one may find
himself aside of the famous and the only large unbroken crater and indeed
finding the beast and pastoral people aside each other without any ill intent
of threatening each other. But contrary to imaginary expectation of honourable
life ahead, one may find people in struggle for existence, the place resampling
the war precincts such as eastern Congo, Darfur and the like not because of the
destruction caused by the man made firearms but the state of life and
livelihood within the world heritage property. In realities one may find two
unsaid things about the world heritage property, that the NCA is part of human
society composed of extremely poor indigenous people and indeed one of the most
earning class of the people in the country (NCA workforces). The indigenous
people of NCA had for decades been living in an island of terrible
marginalization possibly than any society in the Country. In the center of the
country most economic reliable economic base, the right of indigenous people
has been drooping with no assurance of tomorrow existence. The frequent threats
levied against indigenous people within the NCA from the 1970’s to date as
signposted in the recent secrecy dispatch and information from the NCA and
several department of the central government including the highest office in
the land among others is a resilient cue that certain forces have never been
happy for indigenous continued presence within the NCA. They were never and
will indeed not be happy and that's evident by certain act or otherwise of
either NCAA or the government for decades which call nothing other than serious
undertaking to carb the situation and find a long lasting solution to assure
the honourable life of the indigenous people while in the NCA and that the protection
of the pastoral indigenous society is the condition precedent of NCA validity
and presence. Despite infinite milk of prosperity and the honey and sunlight of
opportunities for good life within the
NCA, the young Indigenous people of the NCA finds themselves wandering around
several cities in East and Central Africa in quest of security toil that do not
even exist and not professional with them anyway. The daily ugliness about
struggle for existence has transformed the spirit of hope into the tiredness of
hopelessness as evident by faces of indigenous people you find within the
NCA. With these in mind, serious undertakings to provide the wide range
long lasting mechanism that can reassure the objective foundation of the NCA (a
multiple land use context) are equally and justifiably met must be in place.
