I remember when in primary school in manyatta, our headmaster was a football referee. We could skive school and go for a swim at Kapenesa. I still remember our prefect from Kaloleni called Hamisi. Our school bell was car tire frame. Magadi was our neighboring school. I remember Otambo and Odima our football stars , What a blessing to have experience the extreme.

Tough headed Wangaya, I remember Amina Suleiman, Gogo manyasi and Jacko Omino owadgi Andeki, Skaba Skuba. Much respect to Tobi from makasebo and Devido Ombima not forgetting Aleki and Bush Doctor Algon Eldorado garden.
Lovely friends from Nubian estate Ratib Farajalla, Hassan of Nyanza Picture palace and Abdul my medicine man. Then highway primary school respect to Islamic teacher Sharif Nasir, not forgetting Chunu the son of Bafana and brother to Omari Ibrahim and Sadat. The only shop we could buy Kashata and Baraf. Can't forget being woken up with Islamic prayer the voice of my classmate Kibaden. Can't forget Adundo sweet sister to Mary Edith the great singer from Canada hall.
