  • This is the Allan Lucky’s story of how he went against all odds to become the man he is today.

    Born in Songea, to a christian Family, Allan describes his early life as being constrained in the triangle of three main things, church, school and home. From an early age it seemed that this is how his would be. That’s till he came to Dar es Salaam and realized there’s more to life.

    Allan takes us on a journey about how he never thought of going back to school to end up graduating, how missing the shot of becoming a host of Planet Bongo TV and radio show during the presenter search broke him and sent him into depression. He shares with us his journey with the famous TV show called SKONGA and how that changed his life for the better and for the worse.

    While sitting on top of the world, married and with a kid, Allan quits EATV and the SKONGA TV show and leaves the country to neighbouring Kenya. Professionally things were great, but personally it came with a cost of him losing his family. So what were the lessons learned? Any regrets? And why did he come back to Tanzania after all that?

    This is Allan Lucky’s story and how he fought all the odds stacked against him to get to where he is. When asked who is Allan Lucky, his response was “A father, a husband and a man who thrives at anything that life throws at him, even when stacked against all odds”
