maisha ni barabara ndefu

Baada ya siku tisa Mo kama anavyojulikana nchini humo, alitupwa nje ya uwanja wa Gymkana katika barabara ya Ocean Road eneo linalolindwa sana kwa kuwa barabara hiyo inelekea ikulu ya rais nchini Tanzania.

2019 July 30, “Erick Kabendera: Polisi wa Tanzania wanasema walimkamata mwandishi huyo [Erick Kabendera: Police in Tanzania say they have arrested the reporter]”, in BBC Swahili:

After nine days Mo, as he [Mohammed Dewji] is known in the country, was thrown out of the Gymkana Stadium on the road Ocean Road in an area that is well protected, as the road leads to the presidential palace in Tanzania.

barabara

Kumbukumbu la Sheria 5:32, Biblia Habari Njema:
Nyinyi muwe waangalifu mkafanye kama Mwenyezi-Mungu alivyowaamuru; tekelezeni kila kitu barabara.
Be careful to do as the Lord has commanded; implement everything precisely.
