The Big Show,

Tumeishia pale ambapo 1988 Africa Events ilipochapa kumbukumbu
ya Abdul Sykes kuadhimisha miaka 20 baada ya kifo chake mwaka
1968.

Kuna kisa cha bibi moja wa Kiingereza anaitwa Paula Parks.
Bibi huyu alikuwa mmoja wa waandishi wa Africa Events.

Kisa chake utakiona hapo chini.
Baada ya Africa Events kuchapa ile kumbukumbu...

Tuendelee.

Ukoo wa Sykes wakanunua nafasi katika magazeti ya Daily News
na Uhuru kuchapa kumbukumbu ya Abdul Sykes.

Hebu soma hapo chini nini kilitokea:

''In response to Kiwanuka’s criticism the author published a short biography of Abdulwahid to commemorate twenty years of his death.[1] This was followed by a memorial by the family in the Party and Government papers.[2] This was not to pass without incident. The editor of the Daily News, the government paper, rang up the family late in the night informing them that he would not publish Abdulwahid’s memorial the following day until he got permission from Party headquarters in Dodoma. The reason given was that his life history touched important events and personalities in the history of the nation. But somehow the memorial was published in both the Party and government dailies the following morning. Two years earlier in 1986, after a silence of almost twenty-five years, Ally Sykes gave an interview to a British journalist, Paula Park. Park wrote a full page article on the family’s political history. [3] When the article was published Ally Sykes received telephone calls from both friends and business associates asking him if he was quoted correctly. Shortly after, Park was quietly asked by immigration officials to leave the country.''

Kitu ambacho ningependa kueleza hapa ni kuwa ingawa kumbukumbu
zilichapwa lakini uhariri wake ulikuwa mkali sana.

Mambo muhimu katika maisha ya Abdul Sykes yalikatwa.

Wanajamvi,
Kitu cha kujiuliza ni hiki:

Ni kitu kipi kinasababisha hii hofu katika maisha ya Abdul Sykes?
