Kassim in Songea needs more Si Mchezo!
I'm a loyal follower of Si Mchezo!, it teaches and entertains us. But I have trouble getting it. Please help me get every issue.
Rogatus in Iringa likes what he reads about solar lamps
I'm really interested in those solar lamps mentioned in Si Mchezo! Where are they available?
From Suzan who is in Arusha and a fan of Si Mchezo!'s Betty Liduke
I applaud Betty Liduke for giving good advice to youth and people of all classes. My fellow youth... let's focus our strength on building our nation and being advisors for those with no education about social issues.
