HISTORY OF INaMoTO INITIATION
INaMoTO was at first initiated by three college students
namely Sulyman Mfinanga, Victor Katunzi and Claudio Malingumu at Muhimbili University
of health and allied science, college of environmental health science Mpwapwa
Dodoma Tanzania in 2011 October. The three students were friends who aimed at
reaching the highest level of their academic journey and due to the strategies
they set; Sulyman Mfinanga introduced the group motto which stated ‘It has fire’ in Kiswahili ‘INAMOTO’.
Few days later, new members of INAMOTO emerged. The active new members by
February 2012 were, Bosco Chilongola, William Ritte, Hussein Abdallah, Hussein
Stima and Francis Riwa.
For the group to go on with its studies activities smoothly,
leadership was inevitable. Sulyman Mfinanga became the group president, Victor
Katunzi the vice president, Bosco Chilongola the prime minister,Claudio
Malingumu the chief advisor and the rest were members.
It should be remembered that, by then INaMoTO dealt with
group academic status only and not society development as it deals nowadays.
Victor Katunzi and Claudio
Malingumu were the first members to recognize the importance of increasing
INaMoTO duties so as to favor the society; it is the time when the group
name/motto changed from ‘It has fire’
(INAMOTO) to ‘Innovation
Necessity and Motivation
of Talents
Outlook (INaMoTO) in 2012 march.
Due to known un-avoidable and unknown circumstances, some
of INaMoTO Members left the group including the President.
The organization is now led by Victor Katunzi as the president and Claudio
Malingumu as the
vice President. However, INaMoTO has currently got many members of
different races who join online to get knowledge about various things they
didn’t know before, news and entertainment.
