Luos are great people, with their men famed for being educated, strong, romantic among other positive qualities.
Others would say that they love luxury, a narrative that is not true, as there exists a large section which is not involved in luxury either due to inability to afford it or just out of lack of interest.
Here are the three things Luo men give first priority in life.
1. Future Comfort
Luo men start preparing for their future life and that of their spouses and children as early as they grow out of childhood, in their youthful days.
Being well aware that they will someday grow old, retire from job and probably become sickly because of old age, they start laying the foundation for their families’ well-being as early as possible.
To realize this, most acquire land back in Nyanza as soon as possible, and establish their homes back at the village to ensure that they will have somewhere to return to when the day comes.
They also save as much money as possible to secure their future and that of their children.
2. Education
Luos are ranked among the most educated people in the nation, a narrative that can partly be proven judging by their domination of the education and legal fields.
Apart from ensuring that they get as much as they can in terms of education, they also ensure that their children get the best schooling, since they are aware that with education, the young generation will be of future importance to both themselves and the entire society.
3. Luo Nyanza
For a Luo man to acquire land or invest in any other region away from their home province of Luo Nyanza, they must have first done it back at home.
They adore the lakeside region which they consider their home and place of origin and are, therefore, aware that whatever happens, they will have to at some point go back home and never return.
Speaking ill of the region can easily land you in problems with any Luo.
