It was a pleasure to receive a good and old friend, Rupin Rajani. We have know each other for some time, both in my professional life, when I was an assistant to the President and he was an active member of the Tanzania National Business council. Personally I knew and respect his late father, Mzee Jayantlal Rajani, who sadly passed away in London in 2012. I was privileged to attend a moving ceremony in London in his honour. We caught up on many things in our discussions. We even discussion was of attracting scholarships for Tanzanians to study in the UK and other places. See my page on LSE.
