“Although I am amongst those affected, with the little that God has blessed me with, I have decided to at least offer a helping hand by paying three months house rent to 500 families as my kind gesture of helping one another during these terrible times of fighting COVID-19. I believe I should share your troubles and your happiness too,” he said.

Well, his public promise brought him problems as Tanzanians flocked his home in Mbezi Beach, Dar Es Salaam, begging to be added to the list of beneficiaries. His offices were not spared either as people also camped there waiting for him to choose them.
