Remember this.
I know that you are a young, energetic and very optimistic about your future
I do understand that you are doing everything you can to make yourself better and pack your backpack full of resources in order to begin the battle, the one you need to fight with your surroundings so to make sure you are going to make it later.

Before kick staring the engine that will drive you through the good, the bad and the ugly of your survival, there are a lot of things I have to remind you.
The first thing you have to know that, tomorrow when you wake up you won’t be able to get breakfast because the price of your loaf of bread will be as 10 times as that you bought a new brand limousine, the cost of two spoons of sugar you will need to put in one cup of your tea would buy you Armani Jacket in Milan and kerosene you need to prepare the tea costs the new jeans from D& G.

All these costs you will not afford because your father is a government worker who is paid 60,000 Tsh per month, so expect to start your day without a breakfast.

You will take your way to school, when you reach there, the number of students outside of the school gate, you will surprise to see why are they outside while you didn’t late to school and they were there earlier than you.

Ask them, are you late? ”NO” one of them will say
Is the Headmaster sick today that the school is not going to be opened?
“NO” another student will reply.
So what’s the problem?

Three of the students will tell you that all of them were expelled because they didn’t pay the school fee and told not to go back if they didn’t pay.
You will yourself one among them and decide to leave the school and go to solve the fee problem.
You will probably go to your brother who’s making a living by selling children clothes in the city centre, he doesn’t have a permanent shop but he lays his products down and sell them.
At the time you get there, people are running away towards you, you notice them as small scale traders who also lay down there products the same place as your brother and sell.
Suddenly you see your brother also running faster towards you, when he came near you you accompany him and ask him what was the problem the they are running away from there working place, he says that police and municipal council officers have been chasing them and all his money and other assets been taken away.
My brother, my sister you don’t have the hope to pay the school fee and return to school.

On the way back home you meet your sister who was about to join a University, she from the Ministry of Education to enquire about her admission process, the result she got is that she has been refused the admission, she was confused and didn’t believe her ears because she had very good enough results to join the University.
When she left the Ministry building told her that isn’t that she missed the admission due to the poor results but there were two chances left one for minister’s son and another ministry’s senior officer’s daughter.
No way out sister.

When both of you got back home your cousin came from immigration department to apply for a passport to travel to Europe where he is going to do test for the football team need to test and possible sign his for new league season.
He probably has less than a week to leave the country because he uses his friend’s email that was outside the city when the mail came.
To get the passport, he was told to pay 200,000 by one of the department officers so as to get it faster.
The reason an officer told him was that” you are going to make a lot of money in Europe and you will not remember me if I will help you, so give me that amount”

According to father’s salary no more soccer.

These are my African brothers and sisters who suffer many injustice in there countries let’s unite and help them out.
