Dar es salaam, Tanzania. – (News Of The South) – Palamagamba Kabudi, Tanzania’s minister of Foreign Affairs and East African Cooperation has urged the Tanzania Ambassador to South Africa, Gaudence Milanzi, to speed up the teaching of Kiswahili in the southern African country.
Kabudi said one of the tasks that were made by President Magufuli when he visited a number of southern African countries last year, was to ensure that Kiswahili was taught in schools.
Speaking to the Ambassador to South Africa, the Foreign Affairs and East African Cooperation minister said, “one of your major tasks in South Africa is to make a follow-up on progress made in the teaching of Kiswahili in schools.
Amongst your first assignments in South Africa is to seek an appointment with the South African minister for education and see progress made on this issue.”
In January 2019, former Tanzanian ambassador to South Africa, Sylvester Ambokile said South Africa had identified 90 schools across the country for teaching Kiswahili on a trial basis.
