Kila mmoja wetu ajiandae. Shirika la Saniaga Sacco latarajiwa kuanza kazi kirasmi ifikapo Jumamosi Juni nane mwaka huu.

Kinyozi wangu amenoa nyembe. Aniita. Tumalizanapo nitarudi nikiwa na imani kwamba nimejiweka katika hali nzuri ya kupata uungwaji mkono mkubwa kwa jitihada zetu za kuijenga nyumba ya Saniaga.
