Some elderly men from Meru have reinvented the traditional Ajua game into an exciting annual competition. The senior citizens have formed teams and meet in a formal competition complete with prizes, trophy, referees and spectators.
The tournament was initiated by a retired civil servant to help the older men reconnect and unwind as peers. He bought the trophy and provides the prize money.
There are strict rules for participants to abide by that include; neatness, be in marriage, no smoking and alcoholism.
The old men say that Ajua was popular in Meru traditions for centuries. However, the game has lost fortunes among the younger generation.
The men want to revive the game and make it their means of remaining active after retiring.
