The Bible Translation and Literacy (BTL) organization has launched the Upper Pokomo language New Testament Bible in Hola, Tana River County.
Christians in Tana River, especially the Pokomo will hear and read the Bible in their native language thanks to the efforts of BTL.
BTL, a Christian-based organization established in 1981, facilitates sustainable Bible translation, literacy, and language development among indigenous language groups in Kenya and beyond.
The translation work required intensive linguistic surveys and orthography development, which took ten years and cost Sh45 million.
