The Prophet Gwada Ogot Has Proposed and Petitioned Siaya County Assembly To Adopt 'Ramogi' as The New 'Toponym' For The County
The blood moon of 7/8th September 2025 was not a random spectacle but a divine proclamation of change. Among the Luo people of East Africa—custodians of ancient spiritual wisdom—such celestial events are read as signs of transition, echoing the words of Scripture: “And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years” (Genesis 1:14).
In Luo cosmology, spirits known as juogi animate the world. They inspire human behavior, determine destinies, and bestow unique gifts—healing, music, writing, wisdom et all. At the summit stands Juog Chieng, the spirit of the Sun, dispenser of wealth and knowledge, a reflection of the Almighty whose presence is felt in the gode, the mountain ranges where light reveals His glory. Other spirits serve more particular roles: Juog Thieth guiding healers, and water spirits like Mumbo and Nyakalondo shaping aquatic domains.
But beyond these many, two feminine spirits—Nyanam and Nyawino—stand as polar forces of evening and morning light, guardians of twilight and dawn. Their eternal contest explains the turbulence of human history and the promise of renewal.
The blood moon of 2025 announced before heaven and earth the closing of Nyanam’s stormy reign and the commencement of the era of Nyawino.
Nyanam: The Spirit of Evening
Nyanam arises from the vast waters (nam), embodying the spirit of the moonlight and the westward setting sun. Her reign is one of uncertainty, deception, and storms. She is the guardian of endings, associated with propaganda, lies, and disorder. Under her dominion, nations stagger and peoples groan.
The period preceding the blood moon bore her unmistakable imprint. Volcanic eruptions, floods, landslides, and earthquakes testified to nature’s unrest. Societies convulsed with riots—in France, Nepal, Thailand, and Indonesia. Generational upheaval erupted, first in Kenya in 2024, spreading like wildfire to Nepal and beyond. Wars flared in the Middle East, with Israel, Iran, and Qatar locked in turmoil, while the conflict between Russia and Ukraine deepened.
This was Nyanam’s tempest, her twilight hour, where confusion reigned and the old order shook violently. As the prophet Amos declared: “And it shall come to pass in that day, says the Lord God, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day” (Amos 8:9). Such is the shadow of Nyanam’s final moments.
Nyawino: The Spirit of Morning Light
But dawn must follow night. Darkness bows to the rising sun. In Luo spiritual knowledge, this transition is embodied in Nyawino, the radiant spirit of morning light. Her name carries layers of meaning: nya—to proliferate, to bring forth life; wino—a coil that transmits light, heat, and energy. Together, she is the proliferating light, the womb of renewal, the maternal spirit of abundance.
Nyawino soothes where Nyanam raged. She heals the afflicted, restores balance, and turns injustice on its head—making the first last and the last first. Her light brings wisdom, clarity, and the promise of new beginnings. She heralds the season of reward. equity and truth.
The blood moon thus was not singularly a sign of destruction but of unveiling transition. As Joel foresaw: “The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord come” (Joel 2:31). The eclipse marked the collapse of the old and the birthing of the new.
The Blood Moon as Prophetic Signal
On 7th September, the heavens staged their drama. The Earth stood between the Sun and Moon, casting its shadow so that the Moon glowed red. To the scientific eye, this was the scattering of light through Earth’s atmosphere, bur to the prophetic eye, it was the sign of judgment and renewal.
The blood moon was the climax of Nyanam’s dominion. Its red hue declared the cost of deception, war, and chaos. But it also heralded the dawn of Nyawino. “And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars” (Revelation 12:1). The vision aligns with Nyawino’s arising—feminine, radiant, crowned with light, bearer of transformation.
The Universal Call
Though rooted in Luo cosmology, the message is global. Every nation, every people knows the cycle of night yielding to day, of chaos bowing to order. The blood moon of September 2025 is thus a universal sign: the storm is passing, the light is breaking.
Nyawino’s rise is a call to humanity. It is an invitation to embrace healing, truth, and justice. It proclaims a new orientation in leadership and governance, where lies give way to wisdom, and oppression yields to equity.
The eastward dawn announces it: the spirit of Nyawino is arising. Let the nations take heed, for the wisdom of the East shall now illuminate the path of Luo and the world.
Let those with ears hear.

KEHE CON – The Kenya Hemp Conference was held in Nairobi, Kenya — on Jan 20, 2025 — at the Kempinski Villa Rosa Hotel. KEHE CON was a meeting of researchers, policymakers, growers, and investors. Kenya is an emerging agricultural space for industrial hemp.
The Kenya Hemp Conference brought together industry leaders, researchers, policymakers, and other stakeholders to gain insights into international trade opportunities and understand the environmental benefits of industrial hemp.
This one-day event provided many networking opportunities, sharing (challenges and opportunities), gaining market insights, and participating in discussions about the legal landscape of hemp.
While Parliament mulls over the issue, a new report has pointed out the most vulnerable professions that may need prior protection.
—————
The hospitality, entertainment and media industries may be the most-affected if Parliament legalizes bhang as petitioned recently.
The petitioners, Sammy Gwada Ogot and Simon Mwaura, have separately argued marijuana is no less safe than other drugs such as tobacco and alcohol.
But while Parliament mulls over the issue, a new report has pointed out the most vulnerable professions that may need prior protection.
Professions employing younger people aged 18 to 25, such as entertainment, hospitality, sports and media have been found to attract higher use of marijuana where it is legalized.
A look-back report on the effects of legal marijuana in the US district of Colorado by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) tells of an increase in work-related accidents.
The report published on April 14 in the CDC’s in-house Mobility and Mortality Weekly Report shows some workplace protective measures need to be put in place to make legal marijuana safer. CDC says employers and safety professionals in states where marijuana has been legalized are concerned over increased work-related injuries, including car accidents.
“Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of work-related deaths in the US, with studies linking recent marijuana use to an increase in accidents,” says CDC.
ANTI-DRUG USE POLICIES
Out of the 10,169 Colorado workers who participated in the study, 14.6 per cent reported using pot, the highest proportion aged between 18 and 25. The highest pot taking was found among employees who prepare and serve food in the hotel industry. These were followed by workers in arts, design, entertainment, sports and media. The lowest pot users in Colorado were employees in healthcare and technical people such as in utilities, mining and electricity. In these sectors however, there were stricter anti-drug use policies, including routine compulsory screening.
Thirty two per cent of employees preparing and serving food in Colorado were found to use pot, which is similar to what was found in a study at the Kenyan Coast.
In an unpublished study, Winfrida Agumba of Kenyatta University sampled 400 workers from 25 star rated hotels at the Coast and reported high use of drugs. Almost half of the workers were aged 20 to 30, with 35 per cent reporting having used bhang compared to the national average of 9.9 per cent of pot users.
The Kenya hotels report shows drug taking was highest in animation and entertainment, administration, food and beverage departments in that order. In a recently prepared guide on recreation pot, the World Health Organisation (WHO) is categorical that non-medical marijuana is bad for human health.
Representing sub-Saharan Africa in preparing the document was Kenya’s top psychiatrist Prof David Ndetei of the University of Nairobi.
“There is need to tread carefully in this matter, especially for a country with a weak medical infrastructure,” says Prof Ndetei.
Exploring the role of cannabis in medicine, politics, history, and society, The Pot Book
The Pot Book: A Complete Guide to Cannabis
Encompassing the broad spectrum of marijuana knowledge from stoner customs to scientific research, this book investigates the top ten myths of marijuana; its physiological and psychological effects; its risks; why joints are better than water pipes and other harm-reduction tips for users; how humanity and cannabis have co-evolved for millennia; the brain’s cannabis-based neurochemistry; the complex politics of cannabis law; its potential medicinal uses for cancer, AIDS, Alzheimer’s, multiple sclerosis, and other illnesses; its role in creativity, business, and spirituality; and the complicated world of pot and parenting. As legalization becomes a reality, this book candidly offers necessary facts and authoritative opinions in a society full of marijuana myths, misconceptions, and stereotypes.
U.S. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said on Thursday that he would introduce legislation to decriminalize marijuana at the federal level, marking a significant shift in policy for the Democratic leader and lending the movement to lower government barriers to the drug a powerful ally.
“I believe that the States should continue to be the labs of democracy when it comes to recreational & medical marijuana,” Schumer tweeted in January. “Jeff, this is one place where states’ rights work. Let each state decide.”
The top congressional Democrat told VICE News in an interview set to air Thursday night that legislation to increase access to marijuana is “long overdue” and that far “too many people” have been affected by the government’s crackdown on the drug. [ READ MORE ]
In the eyes of popular culture, cannabis consumers aren’t exactly models of concentration and cognitive performance. So when a small group of researchers began exploring cannabis as alternative treatment for attention deficit disorders, there was of course some scoffing and skepticism. Nevertheless, with so many medical marijuana patients swearing by its ability to promote focus in place of prescription stimulants, these doctors sought to take a closer look at the scientific basis of this counterintuitive phenomenon.
Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, better known as ADHD, is a controversial diagnosis marked by distractibility, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. Adults are more likely to be diagnosed with attention deficit disorder, or ADD, which lacks this hyperactivity characteristic, but is similar in other ways to ADHD. More than one in 10 children in the U.S. will be diagnosed with ADD/ADHD, a figure that has grown exponentially in the last 50 years. Since 1957, doctors have been treating ADD/ADHD patients with psychostimulants like Adderall, Ritalin, and Concerta.
Antonio Rodriguez, diagnosed with ADD/ADHD at age six, had been among the masses prescribed stimulant medications. “I remember having headaches all the time to the point where I wasn’t able to sleep,” Antonio said, adding that his appetite was also nonexistent until treating with cannabis; and not only was cannabis lifting the stimulant side effects, it improved Antonio’s ADD/ADHD symptoms. “For the first time ever, I was in the state where I could really get my mind together.”
Having only been taught the dangers of using cannabis, Antonio was cautious about trying it for the first time. “I got scared about the whole ‘addiction’ side of cannabis,” Antonio said. “I was waiting for the moment my body asked me for weed, but it never happened.”
For those coming from an anti-cannabis background, explaining its therapeutic properties to friends and family can be difficult. This was no less true for Antonio, despite the fact that his performance in school had won him college acceptance with a scholarship. The reality is, there’s far too little research on cannabis and ADD/ADHD to know exactly how the two interact. Still, the data and results emerging from initial investigations show that there is more digging to be done.
One main physiological irregularity of ADD/ADHD is the brain’s shortage of dopamine, a chemical neurotransmitter involved in cognitive processes like memory and attention. Medications like Adderall and Ritalin stimulate dopamine, thereby promoting concentration, but come with a myriad of unpleasant side effects and withdrawal symptoms.
Dr. David Bearman, a figurehead of cannabis research, has studied the relationship between the cannabinoid system and ADHD and discovered potential therapeutic value as cannabinoids interact with the brain’s dopamine management systems.
“Cannabis appears to treat ADD and ADHD by increasing the availability of dopamine,” Dr. Bearman wrote. “This then has the same effect but is a different mechanism of action than stimulants like Ritalin (methylphenidate) and dexedrine amphetamine, which act by binding to the dopamine and interfering with the metabolic breakdown of dopamine.”
Put simply, the compounds found in cannabis, called cannabinoids, could potentially correct the dopamine deficiency observed in ADD/ADHD patients if dosed appropriately and administered safely. Even in its raw form, cannabis is able to provide the mental slowdown necessary for concentration in many patients. Boring and arduous tasks become more manageable, and mood swings tend to level out. But why?
“The most accepted theory about ADHD rests on the fact that about 70 percent of the brain’s function is to regulate input to the other 30 percent,” Dr. Bearman says. “Basically the brain is overwhelmed with too much information coming too fast. In ADHD, the brain is cluttered with and too aware of all the nuances of a person’s daily experience.”
While most medical professionals agree that anecdotal evidence is not sufficient in recommending cannabis for ADD/ADHD, researchers are optimistic about the potential cannabis is demonstrating. When political blockades let up and further research resumes, it could be that cannabinoid therapy provides a frontier for safer, more effective ADD/ADHD medication.

Introduction
The official edition of this book will soon be available at a bookshop near you. It celebrates the 4900th year anniversary of Luo as select lineage of God and most significantly proclaims the resurrection of Christ as son of God and first light of humanity. Special as an epochal mark confirming fulfillment of prophesy, it also symbolises renewal of the covenant between Luo, who is biblical Israel and God Almighty.
Enunciated in perfect alignment to the count of the great cycle of light, the narrative runs from Egypt to Canaan as ultimate hooray, and confirms Luo as the proverbial Jews, and Luo history as the biblical story of mankind synchronised with the births and lives of light, time and word. Luo beginnings as Luo specifically date from the 7th generation for she was before.
Personified by 70 Lucan generations, this matchless Spiritual epic starts from Enoch, the 7th from Adam, and who is the first biblical prophet, to Jesus who is his 70th descendant. Having gone full cycle with light, Enoch returns to unveil Kenya as God’s promised land in fulfillment of the written word just as he did in Egypt in the beginning. As the light, his return marks the commencement of a season of higher ideals and consciousness, and one in which the pursuit and achievement of perfect lights of law, lore, and love will be measuring standards.
First bearer of word, he is first of the scholarly lineage of Alego, first Collo, first Luo, and now the first Ler, as it was in beginning times. He is also first scribe and teacher who invented perfect language and writing as well as reading, besides perfectly pioneering Holy Bible writings in Luo. Enoch designed and built the Giza pyramids as everlasting icons of inspired Luo architecture and pedigree of perfection.
Along the path, the formal role and meaning of Luo in human history organically unveils. Luo is the first and only perfect language of light in which Old Testament word was perfectly written and in which all nations, peoples and places were perfectly named. Luo is the official academic title for scholarly descendants of Israel and name of their language of light. As mother of languages, and because Luo named Kenya and the world, meanings of toponyms, hydronyms, ethnonyms, clanonyms as well as eponyms are revealed for the first time ever.
For this reason, Lu is a consistent theme throughout the text as a titular of academic enlightenment denoting luminaries. Apart from distinguishing Luo and subsequently Luhyia as the world’s foremost scholars, Lu represents the genealogical crux between the two Spiritual groups which wrote the Holy Bible. Luhyia wrote the New Testament as second generation of light.
Accordingly, and on the strength of this accord, this encyclopaedic chronicle broadcasts the restoration of knowledge and peace, as well as a return to order via due justice, reward and punishment, and in so doing lights the path ahead for the holy land of Kenya, unveils the continent of Eden, as well as issues commands to the Church as God’s universal institution of everlasting faith and love.
Importantly too, apart from revealing full identities of the twelve tribes of biblical Israel, the narrative unveils Kenya as biblical Israel and holy land where God Almighty will reside from now henceforth as it was in beginning times, and Nairobi as the new holy city of Jerusalem. Holy! Holy! Holy!
Singularly however, the ultimate celebration is in inaugurating the new and Holy name of God Almighty, which is RA, God of creation and God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel. Holy! Holy! Holy! RA is He who opens and closes, He who makes the first last and the last first, and He who exalts and humbles. May His will be done and His holy name be praised by all eternally.
Holy! Holy! Holy!
