 Help 

Hi Julius, I was wondering if you could help me with something. I'm confused as to what the most common meaning of the word ""Alego"" is. Does the term refer to a general region around Lake Victoria? Or is it an alternate name for Kogelo? Page 9 of Dreams from My Father says that Barack Obama's father was born ""on the shores of Lake Victoria, in a place called Alego."" Other references to the name gives me the impression that Alego is a village. What do you think? khoi "
