Former Tanzania President mourns Michael Jackson

In an exclusive BBC interview on Friday of June 26, 2009, former Tanzania President Ali Hassan Mwinyi recalled Jackson’s visit to Tanzania in 1992 and described his sudden death as a huge loss to the music fraternity world wide.

Mwinyi remembered having a candid chat with the pop icon who had paid him a courtesy call during the 1992 tour, adding that his demise is great loss to the global music fraternity.

Jackson was pronounced dead last Thursday by the Los Angeles coroners’ office with reports suggesting he died from a cardiac arrest. He died at the age of 50 and leaves behind three children. RIP, Michael Jackson.
