Aakó Bu’ú talks about the large-scale forest-clearing operation, directed by the British colonial administration. He details the fines and physical coercion used to oblige men to take part in 13-day shifts in labour camps, together with hundreds of other men. The daily workings of the camps are described, along with how traditional doctors would have visions of sorcerers and how malevolent forces would be cast out of the masses. The different communities of Gorwaaland (especially in the east) where clearing took place are listed, and the policy of forced resettlement in newly-cleared areas is mentioned. || Aakó Bu’ú anaongea kuhusu kazi ya kufyeka misitu, iliyeongozwa na serikali ya ukoloni ya Uingereza.
