Izindaba ezimayelana nokuhoxiswa kuka-Obama kohambo (uhambo) lwamahora amabili oluya epaki yezilwane zasendle eseningizimu yeTanzania iMikumi, kuze kube manje, zihehe iningi labafundi bamaphephandaba kanye ne-inthanethi yonkana eMpumalanga Afrika.

Besabela embikweni oshicilelwe, abafundi abahlukahlukene bafakazele ukuthi abantu baseMelika abanalo ulwazi olunembile kangakanani nge-Afrika, okuyisizathu okungenzeka ukuthi bayabesabisa ngokuvakashela leli zwekazi elicebile izivakashi.
Iningi labantu baseMelika likholelwa ukuthi i-Afrika iyizwekazi elingalawuleki, elilahlwe ubumpofu, izifo, nezimpi ezingabeka engcupheni amaholide abo lapha, umcabango ofanayo nowe-White House owakucabangela ukukhansela uhambo luka-Obama oluya eMikumi National Park eTanzania, uhambo olwaluzothatha uhambo oluya eMikumi National Park eTanzania. akubizi lutho i-White House.
Inqwaba yezimoto izophinde ilethwe kula mazwe womathathu ngezindiza zokuthutha amasosha, kanye namashidi ezingilazi ezingangenwa izinhlamvu ukuze zivale amafasitela amahhotela okuhlala kuwo abakwa-Obama.
Lapho u-Obama ehla eTanzania, kungadingeki ukuba athuthe yonke indlela esuka e-United States, amaloli amathathu agcwele izingilazi ezingangenwa izinhlamvu azosetshenziselwa ukumboza amafasitela amahhotela lapho uzohlala khona umndeni wokuqala ngoba kuzobe kuqiniswe ezokuphepha eduze. wonke amahhotela, afana nokuvakasha kukaGeorge Bush e-Dar es Salaam nase-Arusha eminyakeni edlule.

LOKHO ONGAKUTHATHE KULESI SIHLOKO:
- Lapho u-Obama ehla eTanzania, kungadingeki ukuba athuthe yonke indlela esuka e-United States, amaloli amathathu agcwele izingilazi ezingangenwa izinhlamvu azosetshenziselwa ukumboza amafasitela amahhotela lapho uzohlala khona umndeni wokuqala ngoba kuzobe kuqiniswe ezokuphepha eduze. wonke amahhotela, afana nokuvakasha kukaGeorge Bush e-Dar es Salaam nase-Arusha eminyakeni edlule.
- Womabili amaphephandaba abike ngokusetshenziswa kwemali enkulu uma u-Obama kufanele avakashele eTanzania Wildlife Park, ecaphuna umthombo oseWhite House ethi uMengameli uzodinga izinsiza ezengeziwe ukuze aqinise ezokuphepha kwakhe uma kwenzeka ehlaselwa amabhubesi, izingulule. , noma ezinye izilwane zasendle.
- Most Americans believe that Africa is a wild continent, doomed with poverty, diseases, and wars which could jeopardize their holidays here, the same thinking which the White House took into account to cancel Obama's safari to Mikumi National Park in Tanzania, a trip that would cost the White House nothing.
