The Regional Commissioner of Kilimanjaro, Nurdin Babu, who led government officials and various people to welcome the stars at Kilimanjaro International Airport (KIA), said the arrival of this young Tanzanian duo signifies that youth can excel both within and outside Tanzania’s borders.

“We have welcomed them here to visit the attractions in this region and neighboring regions. Welcome and be a catalyst for promoting tourism attractions within and outside the country through various networks,” Babu said.

Speaking separately, including Fadhil Ramadhan, the youths revealed that their success secret lies in fearing God, hard work, and practice.

They emphasized that their achievement was not sudden but rather a result of showcasing their talent within the country, which paved their way to such opportunities.

“Despite winning, we still have to return to defend our victory among the winners who emerged, so we still have work to do. We encourage young people not to give up, to abandon bad customs on social media and instead use it to create opportunities and earn income. Social media is very powerful and can bring benefits to you, your family, and the nation at large,” Ibrahim Job said.

After receiving them, the Director of ZARA Adventures, Beni, stated that the young men would stay in Kilimanjaro for 10 days, climbing Mount Kilimanjaro and visiting the Serengeti National Park.

The Tanzanian youth group secured a prize of $250,000 after surpassing nine other finalists in the competition.
