Mr Mjengwas visit

Hi people as usual I am back again writing to you my readers of this wonderful(no comment) blog. Um I am sure if you are a good follow up of this blog you remember that recently (meaning a few weeks ago) I wrote to you about Mr Mjengwa and his blog and how his blog is very critical I must say but also very interesting. Well what I have got to say is that Mr Mjengwa came to our school. Some people might say so? But if you really knew Mr Mjengwa you will know what I am rattling on about.
Mr Mjengwa is a very busy man and he has got a very tight schedule and it is not that you can get hold of him just when you feel like. It was three weeks later that we actually could get hold of him. Our IT teacher Mr Klose was very kind to get him to come to our school. so that was kind of what made Mr Mjengwa's visit to our school rather significant.
The other thing that was important was what we learnt from that 50 minute talk. I learned to be courageous and feel free to express what I feel in a tactful way.
Anyways guys I seriously got to go. So bye and I will write soon.
Ciao Mariam(duh)

Prime minister resigns


The former prime minister of the democratic republic of Tanzania Edward Ngoyai Lowassa has resigned. This occurred last week when the prime minister was charged against stealing money from the Tanzanian government.
This was mainly to do with the dealings of Mr Lowassa and the and a company called Richmond. It is said that the government was paying about the some of 152 million Tanzanian shillings a day to the company of Richmond, for them to produce electricity for the national grid of country. to this day Richmond has not yet produced any electricity while it has been payed to do that for the past two years. Instead the money that has been payed by our hard(yeah right) working government (which mostly comes of the taxes being payed by the Tanzanian people) has ended up in the big pockets of Mr Lowassa. So when the report of the investigation was given, Mr Lowassa said that he will resign but he still denied all charges. He did keep his word and now he has resigned.
So Tanzania has now got a new prime minister who goes by the name of Mzengo Peter Pinda. I would personally like to congratulate the MP of Kyela for the work he did and the courage he had to pin point a government official. So thats all.
Thank you for reading this
yours sincerely
