Ganda Nagaya is a lively place on the sandy road to Erer. 40-year-old Nuriah Hussein is the village spokeswoman. Ganda Nagaya is her life. And Karlheinz Böhm is her hero.
When he came to Babile 25 years ago, the young woman from the Hauiwas tribe was 15 years old and, like all other people in the hunger camps in the Sahel zone, she was suffering from malnourishment. Then Karlheinz Böhm built a new village: Ganda Nagaya – village of peace. Nuriah and her family were among the first settlers. “Look at us today,” she says, “we have enough to eat, we have clean water, our men have work tilling the fields, the earth is fertile, our children go to school. We are healthy and if we do get sick, we seek help at the medical centre. And before that? Before that we had nothing.”
