Hasheem Thabeet was drafted in summer 2009 as a second overall pick by the Memphis Grizzlies, to set a remarkable and landmark event to the country he was born in (Tanzania) and East Africa as a whole. I want to believe that every “bongoman” celebrated to the fullest…ooh it was a proud moment of our time. I remember inviting West African friends “Wapopo” at my house for nyama choma and drinks, as the banner waved in front of my house reading “CELEBRATING HASHEEM THABEET ACHIEVEMENT”.
Naomba nianze kwa kuwashukuru na kuwapongeza wenyeji wetu kwa mapokezi mazuri, hususan napenda kuwatambua wananchi, viongozi na wana-CCM wa Mkoa wa Ruvuma wakiongozwa na Mwenyekiti wao ndugu Oddo Mwisho, Katibu wa Mkoa Mama Verena Shumbusho, Mkuu wa Mkoa na Mjumbe wa Kamati ya Siasa Ndugu Said Mwambungu. Nawapongeza kwa maandalizi mazuri ya sherehe hizi.
