This belief is presenting a serious medical challenge since flies are the main cause of trachoma which is the world's leading cause of blindness.
Officials from the safaricom who sponsored a medical camp talked to the residents about the importance of healthcare and education for development
The youth in this community are gradually shedding this tradition that has led to the spred of trachoma among the old fork.
