Okanga's Bold Claim: 8th Grader from Kenya Says He Can Teach Tanzanians Kenya - In a surprising turn of events, a Kenyan eighth-grader named Okanga has confidently declared his ability to teach Tanzanians. The statement, captured in a short video circulating on social media, has sparked debate about perceived differences in educational standards between the two East African nations. "Mimi ni class 8 but nawezafundisha Watanzania kama mwalimu," Okanga asserts in the video, which translates to, "I'm in class 8 but I can teach Tanzanians like a teacher."
