[Sikonge]

Too SAD.

Nakumbuka makala zake mbili hadi leo:

1. Moja ilikuwa kuhusu safari yake kupanda Mlima Kilimanjaro.

2. Kuhusu Chatu Mtu mwaka 90/91 kama sikosei. Jinsi alivyolitumia tukio ya mtu kubadilika kutoka Mtu na kuwa Chatu na mwisho kuhitimisha kwa kusema dawa hiyo itumike kuwabadili MAFISADI kuwa CHATU.

Tunepoteza Mwandishi mmoja mzuri sana sana na mchambuzi mzuri wa SIASA za Tanzania.

Poleni wafiwa na Mungu ampe mapumziko mema huko alikotangulia.

RIP Adam! Poleni sana familia nzima ya Mwakang'ata. Tunamuomba Mungu Awape faraja ya kweli. Tutakukumbuka daima! Bwana Ametoa, Bwana Ametwaa, Jina la Bwana Lihimidiwe!

 

[Obe]

Alikuwa mwandishi mahiri na safu yake katika SN na DN jumatano ilivutia sana na kulipa hadhi gazeti hili la serikali. Daima alsema ukweli na hakujali unamgusa nani katika serikali aliyoifanyia kazi.

Ni maisha tu:rip:

 

[Bravo777]

Hapo pekundu, unajuaje kama mkewe bado yupo hai.

Vipi amefariki na ugonjwa gani?..kiswahili kigumu sana, na maanisha nini sababu ya kifo chake? na je kuna lolote la kujifunza kutokana na sababu ya kifo chake.

RIP Adam

Huyu bila shaka alikuwa mmoja wa maadui wengi wa marehemu. Probably a 'victim' of one of Adam's pen-punches. Anyhow, must be some kind of azzhole.

(sorry about earlier post, forgot to add quote.)

THE United Nations Deputy Secretary General, Dr Asha Rose Migiro, has expressed her sorrow in her message of condolence, following the sudden death of a seasoned and veteran journalist, Mr Adam Lusekelo (54).

Mr Lusekelo passed away while being rushed to Muhimbili National Hospital (MNH) on Thursday night.

"His passing is a huge loss to his family and many friends. It's an irreparable loss to the media fraternity and Tanzania in general. My prayers and sympathy go to his family at this time of unbearable grief," reads her message in part.

Dr Migiro appreciated the late Lusekelo's "ability to write about the vices in society in a subtle, profound and yet very humorous way, while touching the lives of many ordinary people."

"I have been reading Adam's articles since our University years, and continued to do so, until very recently in my current responsibilities. I will miss Adam's pen!" she said.

The deceased's wife Scolastica Lusekelo said on Friday: "He didn't even reach the hospital. He breathed his last on the way at around 11:00 pm."

The 'Sunday News' columnist has been battling diabetes for a long time and was surviving on medication.

TSN Acting Managing Editor Mkumbwa Ally also mourned the death of one of journalism's most gifted writers.

Burial arrangements are being made at his home at Ubungo Maziwa, but the body is likely to be transported to his home district of Rungwe in Mbeya, his wife said.

The late Lusekelo is survived by a wife and three children, two daughters and a son. He worked with TSN briefly in the 1980s before joining BBC as a correspondent based in Dar es Salaam.

Taarifa za kusikitisha zilizonifikia muda mfupi uliopita zinasema mwandishi wa habari maarufu ADAM LUSEKELO amefariki dunia leo alfajiri kwenye Hospitali ya Hindu Mandal jijini Dar es Salaam. Taratibu za mazishi zinafanywa nyumbani kwake jirani na lililokuwa Kanisa la Ufufuo na Uzima, Ubungo.

Mmoja wa waombolezaji aliyepo msibani, ambaye ni jirani yake, amethibitisha taarifa hizi. Wakati wa uhai wake Lusekelo alifahamika zaidi kwa aina yake ya uandishi wa 'satire' kwenye gazeti la SUNDAY NEWS akiwa na safu maarufu ya 'With A Light Touch' na miaka ya hivi karibuni alikuwa akiandika safu nyingine iliyoitwa "EYE SPY" kwenye gazeti la THISDAY.

Mungu ailaze roho yake mahali pema peponi.
