We went to Wapo radio fm station, 98.1mhz, Mbezi beach,  Jogoo, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania.

It was on Saturday afternoon, 7th of September, 2024. Where the program started at 12pm and ended at 1pm noon time. 

It was an exciting moment, when our host presenter Mr. Mussa Ibrahim, introduced us to the radio show on air. Our visit which was inspired by Madam Veronica Kimondo  who invented us, to express what we had from House of Talents, Chanika acrobatics, Tanzania.

We made a touching day, after Pascal narrated, how his family, was not happy with him for joining House of Talents, but later on after his persistence, they supported him.

At the end of the interview, we aired our address and contacts to whomever would be interested in us later.

We left the studio, all three of us; Theonest, Pascal and Kausali. It was a day of great excitement.

 

Many people start calling our phone number soon after leaving the studio, they were asking if they can bring their children and youth to join us for training.  Unfortunately, they were far from Chanika, they need to stay in a hostel so that they could be able to train with us.

These were the obstacles we faced, it was not easy to admit them because;

1.  We don't have the house for boarding.

2. We don't have a nearby hostel to accommodate them.

3. We don't have enough staff to take care of Children who a coming from far away from Chanika community.

4. We wanted all the children and youth, to feel at home when they step at House of Talents, Chanika, hence parents were to send their children but without accommodations, it was hard for us.

After all, we received eight new children who joined us after hearing about us, after Wapo radio station, show broadcasting.
