 Remembering the unsung heroes of Kiswahili literature
Here at home we have the case of the late Sheikh Shaaban bin Robert, who in his honour, Institute of Kiswahili Research (TUKI) at UDSM has established Shaaban Robert Scholarship Fund, which will be launched today in Dar es Salaam by the Prime Minister Fredric Sumaye.
Lovers of Kiswahili literature rate Shaaban Robert as the ’Father of Swahili modern literature’ just like Mwalimu Julius Nyerere, with whom he worked in the struggle for independence, is considered to be the ’Father of the Nation’.
As Tuki launches Shaaban Robert Scholarship Fund today we call upon the whole nation to reflect on our unsung heroes and heroines who, with the might of their pens have kept our country alive in the world of literature.

 "Lebanon Ambivalent Towards US War on Terror" (October 2001)
Mughniyah is also believed to be responsible for planning the 1983 bombing of the US marine barracks in Beirut which killed 241 servicemen, as well the abduction of several American civilians in Lebanon during the 1980s.
Lebanese government sources have insisted that they have provided Washington with intelligence information about Usbat al-Ansar and other suspected groups and individuals linked to bin Laden, but there has been no confirmation of these assertions by US officials and the extent of such cooperation, if any, is not known.
Part of the reason why Lebanese officials are reluctant to cooperate with the US is that even mainstream Sunni Islamist organizations have condemned the American "war on terror" as a crusade against all Muslims.
