Re: [wanabidii] ARCHIVES : DISEMBA 10 SIKU ADHIMU KWA WAZANZIBARI

Huwa hainiingii akilini kusheherekea mapinduzi bila uhuru wa zanzibar.
Nikweli sultan aliendelea kuwepo lakini nchi haikuwa koloni tena.
Watanzania kuna mambo kwa makusudi tumefichwa hasa bada ya uhuru wa
zanzibar kuna vitu vingi viliendelea ndani ya afrika mashariki wenye
kuijua historia wamenyamaza au wamenyamazishwa lakini matatizo
yataendelea kujitokeza kila siku.
