The President was flanked by Speaker of the National Assembly,Anna Makinda, the Chairman of Chadema and leader of opposition, Freeman Mbowe and other dignitaries including MPs.
The late Mr Sumari, a politician-cum-stockbroker,is expected to be buried in his home village in Arumeru East, Arusha on Monday. He was the constituency MP. He died on Thursday in Dar es Salaam after he lost a brain cancer battle. The nation lost two MPs in a single week. The other was Regia Mtema (Chadema special seats) who died in a car accident.
