Description:The speaker talks about the different Okiek groups in Kenya. He mentions the ones who live in Mount Elgon, the ones around the Mau Forest and those found in other places in Kenya especially the Rift Valley. He states that the Okiek are quick to learn the language of their neighbours but are not ready to teach theirs to the communities they encounter. He identifies some of the speech communities that have absorbed the Okiek. He also notes that the Constitution of Kenya encourages people to preserve their own language and culture.
Jane Oduor is the Okiek language documentor.
Patrick works within the Okiek community as a social worker and community mobilizer. In this project he also assisted in community mobilization, video recording, translating and annotating.
Simon Konana Konini is a respected community elder who took who participated in many documentation sessions. He is the narrator of the story in the second session (okiek_Narratives002).
