Wasafi Classic Baby (WCB) manager Hamisi Shaban Taletale alias Babu Tale is the MP-elect for Morogoro South-East constituency. This is after he sailed unopposed on a Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) ticket. The opposition party, Chama cha Demokrasia na Maendeleo (Chadema), failed to nominate a candidate to face off with the WCB co-founder in the October 2020 elections.

In a message to his over 2.3 Instagram followers, the first-time politician who defeated the incumbent, Omary Mgumbe -Tanzania’s assistant Agricultural minister, by 76 votes (318 votes against 242) during CCM’s primaries, revealed that his journey to parliament started four years ago when he set the groundwork with his late wife Shamsa Tale.
