It can't be that napigwa ban kwa kusema ukweli na magufuli amekufa. Its absurd.
Magufuli is dead for reasons better known to everyone. He died in Nairobi and many people were very happy.
Sasa nkipost hiyo information napigwa ban. Its very weird sielewi hawa moderater wa kibongolala.

A Kenyan student has been sentenced to a year in jail for insulting President Uhuru Kenyatta on social media.
Alan Wadi Okengo, 25, alias lieutenant Wadi, must also pay a fine of $2,200 (£1,400), or serve a second year.
He was also convicted of hate speech, after saying members of the president's Kikuyu ethnic group should be confined to certain parts of the country.
A prominent blogger was recently charged after calling Mr Kenyatta an "adolescent president".
Kenya has a vibrant social media scene and the BBC's Emmanuel Igunza says the cases have led to fierce debate about what is acceptable online.
Our reporter notes that many people think Okenga overstepped the mark, as they felt his comments were personal abuse that was not fit to be published.
Okenga pleaded guilty to both hate speech and insulting the head of state.
The Daily Nation website reports that he was arrested while trying to flee the country.
The case comes as a Kenyan court suspended sections of a tough new security law which critics say curtails media freedoms .
