  5. Yote mnaongea namtasema sana. Nikiwa kama mkulia wa UDSM, yaani mzawa,chekechea (Iliyoungua moto miaka ya 70) shule ya msingi (Mlimani) nashangazwa na swala kwamba baki ya kuwa na wasomi wa kiwango cha juu, tunashindwa kugundua kuwa haina maana kuweka gates wakati hauna fence. Tena on top of that unaweka na ulinzi getini ..... wajameni chonde chode....

  6. Wabongo hua tunapenda kupoteza keshi kwa mambo ya sio na tija. Leo hii UDSM wako hoi kifedha halafu mnakwenda kupoteza hela (1m) kwenye design ya geti which kwa hesabu ya chapchap hayo mageti matatu will cost you not less than 20m kujenga. Baada ya kutafuta njia ya kuraise funds nyinyi mnatafuta njia ya kuspend. A few weeks back nilipita mitaa ya huko nikakuta nyumba zaidi ya 6 za walimu ziko tupu zinahitaji matengenezo ili walimu wasiokuwa na nyumba wahamie, nilipouliza nikaambiwa Chuo hakina fedha ya kukarabati hizo nyumba. Hio 1m inatosha kuweka two poles on each gate na kuweka a big banner in between, msitake mambo makuuubwa when you can't afford.
