<translate> In elementary school, every Friday, during the school meeting, there was an opportunity to reward students for their unique features. The winner of the Kiswahili award was called Bingwa wa Kiswahili and would be expected to stand in front of the entire school crowd and read the award-winning essay. I once won this award once. <swh>Katika shule ya msingi, kila Ijumaa, wakati wa mkutano wa shule, kulikuwa na nafasi ya kutuza wanafunzi kwa sababu ya vipengele tofauti. Aliyepata tuzo la Kiswahili aliitwa Bingwa wa Kiswahili na angetarajiwa kusimama mbele ya umati wote wa shule na kusoma insha iliyomtunuku tuzo hilo. Niliwahi kulishinda tuzo hili mara moja.
