District Governor Wilson Ndesanjo, affectionately
called “Governor Willy” was accorded a rousing welcome at the J.K. Nyerere
International Airport Dar es Salaam on the sunny Tuesday afternoon. He has now
assumed his office as the authoritative Governor for Sub District 411B.
The sub district is composed of Tanzania and Uganda
and he will control and administrate forty Lions Clubs with 1100 active Lion
Members. His main challenge is to see that the number of members must increase
by almost 200, which means every club must bring in at least five new quality
members during his tenure of twelve months.

During the year, the best gift he expects from his
fellow Lions is to chart four new Lions Clubs in Tanzania and Uganda. “This is
my humble request and the best gift you can give me. Is it asking too much?”,
the Governor, an insurance businessman, told the Blogger of this media.
Governor Willy was garlanded with fresh red roses by
President of Lions Club of Hosts, Lion Nureen Nathoo and a bouquet for the
First Lady of the District, Florense Ndesanjo. She could not accompany the
Governor on the same flight because she was attending to some domestic issues,
including her daughter and son who recently graduated with first degree in
London.
Beaming with a broad smile, Governor Willy thanked all
the Lions and the Press Corps for turning up at the airport and for giving him
the special privilege of receiving him at the VIP Lounge , normally accorded to
important leaders. He talked to the many media reps and told them of his goals
and vision as the Governor of the district.
He was among 750 Governors Elect who were trained and
later installed to carry out the difficult time consuming duties of
Governorship. He will be assisted by Cabinet Secretary Lion Kishore Simzia and
Cabinet Treasurer Lion Mohamed Lalji, a veteran Lion well known for controlling
the coffers of the district. His immediate deputies are Lion Night Ndyerugahi
as First Vice District Governor, wife of Lion Polly Karimani Ndyerugahi, the
Chairman of Multiple Council of District 411.
Another deputy, Second Vice District Governor Lion
Hayderali Gangji is a business man with eyes and brains of an accountant. At
the moment he and his spouse Lion Nimeira Gangji are in Mumbai receiving
medical attention. Lion Gangji was not feeling well over the last couple of
weeks and was admitted at the Regency Health Centre and was referred for
further treatment abroad.
At the airport, the large group of people included
PDG/PMCC Lion Abdul Majid Khan, Zone Chairpersons Lion Bakari, Lion Dr. Hussain
Hassan, Presidents of various clubs and members of various fraternity clubs in
Dar es Salaam.
