Friends,

Ladies and Gentlemen

First and far most I would like to thank everyone for his or her presence at this great event

Today is one of the greatest and happiest days I ever had in my life. I believe it’s time for me, you and other Tanzanians out there going to gain knowledge, skills and techniques which will transform our lives and add some values that will enable us  become more responsible in matters of personal and national interest. This is the strong move of Tanzania to some stapes forward.

It has been common nowadays hearing a person claim of Unemployment; Students brainstorm themselves on how they can give the best possible value in the market.

Friends,

It is time. Here we are with experts in Marketing and business career, people who have done well in the market, people who have left the legacy. These experts are going to share with us almost what most of us have been thinking through time without a breakthrough. Together we are going to end up having answers to some endless questions we had; People ask,

1.    How can one create his/her own employment?

2.    How can one excel in the market?

3.    How can one make use of Technology for effective and efficient outcomes?

4.    What is one’s duty to position Tanzania to win the world market?

5.    What is the Power of branding to Marketers and business people?

Friends,

To speak of myself, I have 16 years now in studies but I have never realized strong commitments from colleagues to exploit opportunities for creation of employment and thinking of employing others. Am not saying no one has ever done this and it does not mean people are not capable of doing this.

It’s the ALTITUDE within us. On my side this does not complicate my brain, you may ask why? It’s for a very simple reason; ALTITUDES changes. So we don’t need to change people, we need to change the ATTITUDE within people. This is what pressurized DUMA to come up with this kind of event. Guys, CHANGING ATTITUDE

Think of the person who came up with the concept of mobile money. It’s not far, just Kenya. To date, this service in Kenya has employed 28,000 people. It has spread to Tanzania, Afghanstan and South Africa. Adaptation is expected in India and Egypt.

It is my opinion that awards should be given to people like these as among the ways of cerebrating them, people who trouble themselves for the betterment of others. Remember opportunities come from decisions we make.

Friends,

People die but history never dies, let us make history; Mark Zuckerberg will never be forgotten. Jeff Besos (the founder and CEO of Amazon.com) will never be forgotten. Henry Ford will never be forgotten. Bilget will never be forgotten.

Is Mwl Nyerere alive today? Is Martin Luther King Jr alive today? Is Michael Jackson alive today? Is Wetney Hoston alive today? .All these do not exist today but their history is still alive Guys let’s make history; CREATIVITY and INNOVATION are the ways to make it. With you and me, we are going to create the future that no one in the past has ever realized.

We are here today but DUMA will keep running these kinds of discussions to realize that wonderful future.

Before I come to the end of my speech may I express my sincere gratitude with affection to the companies and people who have facilitated the event up to this moment;
