Moses Namulata Kisaka crushes stones

Having lost his job as a casual worker in April 2009 when the Webuye paper mill was closed down, Moses Namulata Kisaka did not know how to continue providing for his five children.

As most men can testify, he says, being hopeless is an ego-crushing situation. "I didn't want to wait for Panpaper to re-open because if I was to do that, I would still be seated here waiting," says Namulata, 35.
