“Iliniuma”: Mate Tongola Recounts Moment Girlfriend’s Dad Rejected Him
Mate Tongola said that, at the time of rejection, he wasn't a stud man/ courtesy.
Radio Maisha presenter, Mate Tongola, shared a memorable moment when his girlfriend’s father rejected his marriage proposal.
In an exclusive talk on Maskani 47, the reggae journalist revealed that he wished to marry a damsel called Sandra from Mombasa in 2007, but his plans never materialised.
Tongola revealed that the young woman was a beacon of hope and the epitome of beauty to the extent that he didn’t waste time going and shooting his shot to her parents in Kisauni.

“Mtoto laini hadi biskuti hawezivunja, akinywa soda waona kooni ikipita. Ukimwita ni kama hataki. Anaitika naaaaa. Alikuwa amenimaliza sana…Akaniambia, twende kwa babangu ujitambulishe na nia yako. Mtihani ajabu…” Tongola narrated.
Tongola, a celebrated Radio Maisha reggae host and The Standard Newspaper writer, said he picked several friends, including the late literatus and journalist Ahmed Darwesh, for introduction in Kisauni.
“Kufika kule, alikuwa ashamwambia babake kwamba ‘naja kuposwa’. Bosi, unaingia hivi mlangoni chakula kimeandaliwa chakula ajabu… chakula kila mahali… lakini baba hajui ni nani wa kumposa mwanawe…” The radio journalist stated.

Tongola shared that after a meal, he was dumbfounded when his girlfriend’s dad asked them who wanted to speak on their behalf and who had wished to marry Sandra.
“Baada ya chakula, akasema sasa niambieni mnataka nini…Eish! Kigugumizi kilinishika. Akaniambia sasa mtoto hata dini inasema hufai …lakini ninapenda jinsi umejileta lakini sasa sijui ni nani miongoni mwenu aongee?” He added.
The radio guru said his girlfriend’s dad declined his offer since he was young and financially unstable. However, although rejected, he revealed that he is still in contact with the young woman, but just as friends.
“Akaniambia kidogo umri wako ni mdogo. Na kweli nilikuwa kijana mdogo. Akaniambia, wewe mdogo lakini kuakua kidogo. Iliniuma sana na akaongezea kuwa, hata mtoto wangu hutaweza kumlisha, na eti hata nguvu sina. Aaah! Alinitoa tonge mdomoni bwana na hivyo ndivyo ilinitoka lakini mpaka wa leo huwa twazungumza.” He added.
