MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

The second most read story was about the presentation of Gold Medal from Lions Clubs International to a leading Philanthropist and high level businessman, Dr. Reginald A. Mengi. Presentation on behalf of International President Barry J. Palmer was done by the then District Governor Lion Wilson N. Ndesanjo (on the left).

The story about Saidi Ngwaje suffering from abnormal growth of flesh, a disease called Neurofibromatosis attracted largest number of Pageviewers within a short time. A popular leading ITV Channel also carried the story recently and the person might go to India for a surgical treatment.

16,000  PAGEVIEWERS OF GOVERNOR’S BLOG

The District Governor’s Blog surpassed its intended target of more than 16,000 Pageviewers, recording Tanzania as number one country reading the blog out of top ten countries.

The Governor’s Blog which was created and named after District Governor Lion Wilson Nathaniel Ndesanjo immediately after he was installed as District Governor at Hamburg in Germany last year, truly became an international media. Readers began taking interest in the Blog in United States, United Kingdom, Uganda, Germany etc.

Lion Wilson Ndesanjo and his Spouse, also a Lion, Lady Florence are expected to depart for Canada in  Toronto along with other Lion Members from Uganda, Kenya, Ethiopia and Seychelles. Lion Wilson Ndesanjo will now be  addressed as Past District Governor or PDG,  which will be a prefix before his name and MJF after his name.

One of the eleven major goals set-up by the PDG during his tenure as Governor was to do as much publicity about Lionism as possible. Apart from Facebook, Twitter, District Bulletins and Club Newsletters, the Governor’s Blog took the lead in propagating  events and news about Lionism in Tanzania and Uganda. 

More than 335 news stories including pictures were displayed in the Blog throughout the last twelve months. The IT & Bulletin Committee which was involved in the Governor’s Blog comprised Lion Salim Suleimanji (Convenor); Lion Valeria Mwesigwa (Uganda) and Lion Abdul Hai (Tanzania) who was also the Blogger and Editor of the publicity media. Lion Abdul Hai was awarded a trophy by the Governor Lion Ndesanjo and a Certificate of Appreciation from International President Barry J. Palmer.

The latest  top ten viewers (country-wise) in descending order were Tanzania, United States, Uganda, United Kingdom, Germany, Ukraine, India, Kenya, Russia and the Netherlands.

Breaking News: According to statistics, a big majority of Viewers took deep interest, repeatedly on the story of Saidi Ngwaje who is suffering from abnormal growth of flesh on his forehead and hanging below his neck. The disease is known as Neurofibromatosis (NFI). He is married with two small children and resides at Zinga, a small town halfway between Dar es Salaam and Bagamoyo. A few weeks ago he was interviewed in a popular TV Channel ITV and it appeared he may go to India for surgical treatment. Much would depend on the donations from the public.

More Info: The second story which became immediately popular was the presentation of an Appreciation Gold Medal from International President Barry J. Palmer to one of the leading Philanthropist and top-level businessman Dr. Reginald A.  Mengi. The impressive ceremony was conducted by Governor Lion Wilson Ndesanjo on behalf of the International President.

Relevant information about Blog: International President Barry J. Palmer also writes a Blog for Lions Clubs International website and shares fotos on his Facebook. He said in his message in the LION magazine: “I’m a convert myself to social media. I’ve been on this green earth for a number of years now and had to relearn my ways of doing things.”
