    Kiswahili and English(fluent), limited in French and Mastering four (4) Tanzanian vernacular languages

    • My mother tongue is Kihaya as I was born in Kagera region, Tanzania where Bahaya tribe is the dominant in the region.
    • Kiswahili was my second language because at that time Kihaya was the prevalent language thus it was until one begins a Primary School to start learning Kiswahili in school as media of instruction.
    • I started learning English language in primary school but later in the secondary school English became a media of instruction until the university level.
    • Nevertheless in the secondary studies we were taught French language which I managed to master a limited competence.
    • During my career pursuit i traveled in various parts of the United Republic of Tanzania and came into contacts with tribal societies where I managed to learn several tribal languages at least around 12 tribal languages but among which I can speak and listen at least four of them.
