\n Quotations from children (translated in to English)
\n\u2022 Nickson Sunday (Azania Secondary School)
\ni. It is not true that our poverty is caused by laziness of African people, history shows Africans were made slaves working but not gaining the rewards.
\nii. The problem here is how the national cake is distributed, it should be distributed for all and our industries should be revived.
\niii. The studies in all levels should be conducted in our national language, international language hinders us much.
\niv. The infrastructure rehabilitation should be highly prioritized.
\n\u2022 Nasra Salehe (Zanaki Secondary School)
\ni. We have the problem of understanding our rights which goes at par with our responsibilities, in our schools for instance, students are complaining of a lot of things, but themselves are failing even to clean their toilets which is their duty.
\n\u2022 Bakar (Benjamin Mkapa Secondary School)
\ni. We are failing in focusing and emphasizing in imparting education to our children (prepare them well since childhood). In Japan, children are equipped and become able to be employed when they reach 15 years of age.
\n\u2022 Zuberi Juma (Mnazi Mmoja Secondary School)
\ni. We should make sure ourselves that each and every person is paying all taxes required, and then make proper follow-up on the usage of our taxes.
