CELEBRATION IN WATUSTAN - BORDERS OPEN
All week, festivals and celebration covered the busy streets of Port Watu for Memorial Day, a day in which we honor the the sacrifice of Watu men and children against the vile Mbele forces. Such activities were pinatas of Mbeles, a military parade, and then the anthem. The uproar was near deafening when the president stood out from his balcony to speak briefly:
"My dear Watu, we are here only because of the blood spilled on the streets today. The fight is far from over. Everyday we must fight to bring together all Nethians. Only then will the fighting stop. Only then will our people truly be free."
Today marked an important day, not only because it was a holiday. Today, the borders have been reopened since the struggle over forty years ago. The country has been under immediate martial law, heavily restricting exit and entry into the country. In addition, elections were also restricted, for the threat of a Mbele retaliation was too strong. However, the president has promised that by the end of this month, there will be an ballot for who will lead the nation. The expected contender will most likely be Sokoine's son, Mungu.
