Brian,
There is no tongue in cheek as concerns the PMG post or better still Chair of the PCK Board (I also have more than 2 kids), "mtaka cha uvunguni ni sharti ainame"
We must stop encouraging people to sit at home and wait for appointments from heaven, canvassing and putting yourself out there is essential even the dear lord says "ask and you shall receive", even though there are millions out there who might be more qualified and energetic than myself but they have not shown an interest in the post.
Regards

Please, I can assure you that, unlike my brother Robert Yawe, I have no interest in PMG, and I am also sure that even Bobby's impassioned campaign is a bit tongue-in-cheek, I am sure there are many young, energetic, qualified people who can take this up. They just need a framework where some of us can provide them with strategic guidance, oversight and mentorship.

It would be great to have our own at the ministry. And while there,
don't forget Brian for PMG!
