Kohima: The Kilo Old Students Union (KAKK) held a pre-jubilee dedication on November 7. They are preparing for their 50th anniversary. Villagers walked from the village entrance to the site with a commemorative stone. It was a community effort. Daniel H. Swu chaired the event. Pastor Mughaho Chisho of the Kilo Old Baptist Church led the dedicatory prayer.
Hushito Swu, the second president of the union, spoke to the crowd. He thanked the family of the late first president for their long-term support. He noted the stone represents heritage and identity. "Let it stand, let it stand," he chanted to the gathering. The crowd replied with praise. Nikhuzhe Swu, the GB of Kilo Old, led a traditional flock song during the procession.
Kani Yeptho, the women pastor, oversaw the second session. She led the hoisting of the union flag. The new Jubilee Memorial Hall opened as the union's permanent office. The wife of the late first president, Yenizhe Swu, inaugurated the hall. She shared her husband's hopes for village prosperity. Puloto Swu, co-convenor of the construction committee, said the union finally has a home after years of struggle. He thanked the donors and the village leaders for their unity.
Vitoshe L. Shohe presented the first edition of the union constitution. Kivito Swu formally inaugurated the document. It serves as a guide for future operations. A feast followed the business sessions. The planning committee thanked G. Kaito Aye, the PWD Minister, for funding help. Mr. and Mrs. Bokato Swu sponsored the commemorative stones.
