Gift Safari, a three-year-old Tanzanian girl, responded simply to a live question on the president of Kenya.
The young girl, who was born in Mwanza, Tanzania, went on to mention other presidents, with ease, including those of South Korea (Yoon Seok Youl), Russia (Vladimir Putin), Tanzania (Samia Suluhu), Uganda (Yoweri Museveni), the United States (Joe Biden), France (Emmanuel Macron), and Tanzania (Yoweri Museveni).
Aside from the head of state of the world, the minor is familiar with each minister in Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu’s cabinet. Even though she hasn’t started school yet, this is the case. She is proficient in Swahili, Tanzania’s official language, and can count from one to ten.
According to her mother, the girl usually teaches and directs her older brother on what to do.
“Yeye huwa anamuelekeza ndugu yake kwa kila jambo (It is her who usually directs her brother in almost everything),” the mother told a TV station in Tanzania.
Her mother said that she knew that her last born daughter was gifted when she was first taken to church and the following day she sat at a corner and shouted Hallelujah!
The mother then said that her daughter then started preaching what had taken place in church the previous day. Asked if she had done anything special to her daughter, the mother said she was just as perturbed with some of the things that she does.
The mother said that all she does is to guide her daughter on Christian values. According to the mother, the small girl loves watching news and then poses questions to her mother.
“Whenever I tell her that I do not have an answer to any of the questions, she then goes ahead and gives me the correct answer,” said the mother, who is now asking well-wishers to assist her raise the child better as she is not financially capable.
