On
6th April 2013, over 100 Lions from Dar fraternity walked past the streets
of Dar es Salaam to celebrate Golden Jubilee of their existence
in Tanzania. The colourful Parade was led by Magereza Brass Band
and District Governor Lion Joseph Kiwanuka together with his spouse Lion Edith.
Chairman of the Committee overseeing the event, PDG Lion
Majid Khan as well as his team reflected their impression to see that the 5
month long hard-work spelled enormous success.
“The Parade is not only a walk but a publicity
drive to attract other citizens towards the good work we do,” said Lion
Kiwanuka. He further thanked all members who walked and appreciated that the 50
years celebration was worth the existence of Lionism wherein extremely good
work has been carried out.
PDG Lion Satish gratified the good work that the preparation
committee had done to see through such an important occasion. “I am here today
to walk hand in hand with our Lions of Dar and to beam my salutations for that
community services rendered, keep it up!, said Lion Satish.
FVDG Lion Wilson Ndesanjo and Lady Florence
equally thanked all Lions for the 50 years of hard-work. “The work that
replaces tears in the eyes of the destitute with love is what we stand for,” said
Lion Ndesanjo.
The Parade was also attended by PDG Lion Vijay, RC
Lion Salim from Region C, RC Lion Rizwan from Region D, ZC Lion Naeem Dar, ZC
