Shida ni respiratory complications that arise after a volcano, the quality of air is just bad.
Nimeona pia sai imefika the new airport.
Man, I feel for businesses people in Goma, especially small scale businesses.
You’re back to poverty, with nothing except the second car you’re fleeing in with family.
Naona whole concrete houses na lami being turned to rumbles
Hopefully Kenya most volcanoes are dormant not back then when Mt Elgon was the tallest mountain on Earth days Dinosaurs were the bonobos campaigning for bbi.
People should just abandon Goma for good. This calamity will repeat itself as long as the volcano remains active.
Diamonds are getting shifted towards the surface as eruption continues
Hapana ,these are signs of the end times. Abandon all worldly possessions ,store your treasures in heaven ,where no moth can destroy . Wear a sack cloth and repent. The kingdom of heaven is nigh .
Its a known fact slopes of a volcanic mountain are very fertile sa siwezi mind kuvuna more than 3mill euros in aperiod of 20 years nihame then nirudi…anyways kiswahili ya watu wa Goma iko sahihi wish i could say the same for my shemejis:D
Red volcanic soil, so, how long does it take for that magma to turn the agricultural soil ?
Well Mt Nyirahgongonerupted in 1977 2002 now 2021 na i saw vegetation and remember its the most active volcano on earth so yep find aless active one nunua huko acres kadhaa.
"Russy,
not back then when Mt Elgon was the tallest mountain on Earth
what do you mean?
I mean they could move the town elsewhere but keep the land for farming. That way a large number of people won’t be caught asleep when the mountain suddenly erupts
Fire bun Lucifer
Sorry correction tallest mountain in Africa…before its very violent eruption Mt Elgon was the tallest mountain in Africa.
What grows well in volcanic soil?
The altered volcanic ashes are well-drained, yet hold water for plants, and are easily tilled. Deep volcanic loams are particularly good for pasture growth (there is a large New Zealand dairy industry), horticulture, and maize.

What nutrients are in volcanic soil?
Volcanic Soil Includes Non-Crystalline Minerals
Some of the non-crystalline minerals most commonly found in volcanic soil are allophone and imogolite. Iron and aluminum minerals in their amorphous state are also found in many andisols, as well as calcium and magnesium.Jan 8, 2021

Is volcanic soil good for plants?
The ash and lava decompose and bond with organic matter to create nutrients to the surrounding soil which makes the soil very fertile. The soil is also low density, porous and good at storing water, perfect for growing crops and allowing people to become self-sufficient on the land.
