“During training by the P4P [Network], I was taught how to use various methods to address conflicts in my communities. When I became the CSO, I tried to use force to end the conflicts, but it was not working. Then, I introduced a football competition. I give a little token to the first, second, and third winning teams. And after that, I will gather both winners and losers back to the community and tell them that, “You are one (1), both winners and losers.” I teach them how to be together, be their brother’s keepers. And they go home very happy.
