Dear friends
I welcome you to my website. It has always been my desire to put on record my life experiences, ideas, commentaries and written and verbal exchanges on societal and global matters. This is more so when one is a scribe like me. This therefore is just the beginning of a lengthy, more thorough and healthy exchange of information between me and the world. It is my hope that this engagement will contribute, though in a very infinitesimal way, in making our world, specifically Tanzania, a better place for us and future generations to live in. Please feel free, through this modern medium, to air your views, comments and suggestions on any matter concerning this site and our communities.
Thank you,
Danford William Mpumilwa

I had wanted to write something about our Arusha’s new status, that of its now being crowned a city, notwithstanding its sickening traffic jams; its garbage heaps and rotten drainage systems; its unreliable power and water supply systems; its foul smelling public markets; and its dilapidated public school structures lacking all essentials including desks. And more of the column could have dwelt on the city’s lack of public toilets."...to read the whole article go to 'news' page.

Now some news hit you like lightening and shock you so much that you are left numb, and so numb that you need another lightening bolt to bring you back to life "...to read the whole article go to 'news' page.
