- 80-year-old Risper Ogaye Nyikal from Kanyipir gets a new house

- Chako Tek Widows Group and PS Dr. Raymond Omollo behind the initiative
- Program led on the ground by Ayugi Victor
- Focused on dignity, care, and inclusion of elderly widows
In the heart of Kibiri Ward, Karachuonyo Constituency, one widow’s story has taken a beautiful turn. Risper Ogaye Nyikal, aged 80 and a proud member of the Chako Tek Widows Group, has been blessed with a newly built house.
Her homecoming is not just about shelter—it’s about restoring hope and dignity to a life lived in resilience.
The house was handed over under the Widows Empowerment Program, a special initiative made possible through the leadership of PS Dr. Raymond Omollo, with strong coordination on the ground by Ayugi Victor.
The goal? To uplift elderly widows, many of whom have endured hardship for decades, often in silence.
“No widow should feel forgotten. We are here to walk with them and restore their dignity,” said Ayugi.
This latest gesture reaffirms the community’s commitment to leaving no widow behind—ensuring that they not only survive but thrive in comfort, care, and respect.
The Chako Tek Widows Group continues to lead the charge, offering a model of empowerment and compassion that others can learn from.
As more widows across Homa Bay County benefit from similar programs, Mama Risper’s story stands as a symbol of what purpose-driven leadership and community love can achieve.
And as the sun rises over her new roof, a promise lives on—that dignity has no age limit.
