They say 'better late than never'. While you were celebrating the end of 2012, The New Times Publications journalists were busy making sure you enjoyed your daily issue.

On Friday, the staff of The New Times, and its sister publication the Kinyarwanda weekly 'Izuba Rirashe', converged at Lemigo Hotel in Kimihurura for their end of year party.

In his short speech to the staff the Managing Director, Collin Haba, thanked the team for a job well done.

"I would like to thank all of you for the hard work you demonstrated the past year and I hope you do the same this year", he said.

The merrymaking, which started at 6p.m in the barbeque area of Lemigo Hotel saw TNT staff and journalists from other media houses interact and enjoy dinner while they listened to music. The party ended at almost midnight and later the journalists danced the night away at Golemi Club, situated at the same hotel.
