THE LIFE OF PEOPLE OF KIGAMBONI





This picture shows a section of Kigamboni area of Dar-es-salaam. To get to Kigamboni, one has to board a ferry (main means of transport) since it is the other side of the Indian Ocean. The people who live around this place make lime from coral reefs collected from the shores of the ocean. The hip shows coral reefs ready for burning into fine particles used to make lime for sale.  Behind me is lime ready for sale. Also behind me are make shifts used by women who come to cook and sell food to people working on this site. The people here are gainfully engaged in producing lime and making use of their environmental resources mainly fish and the reeds for business.
