NI VIZURI TUKAMKUMBUKA SHAABAN ROBERT!



This is a remix of poem by Shaaban Bin Robert and sung in Swahili by Dr Peter Oriato. Ni vizuri kuwakumbuka mashujaa wetu katika fasihi andishi wanaotokea hapa mkoani Tanga.

Shaaban bin Robert, also known as Shaaban Robert (1 January 1909 – 22 June 1962), was a Tanzanian poet, author, and essayist who supported the preservation of African verse traditions. He was born in Vibamba in the country's Tanga Region. Robert is thought of as a great Swahili thinker and writer in East Africa and has been called "poet laureate of Swahili" and the "Father of Swahili.
