We lost one of those individuals who make history

By Edi Rama
Today, one of those men who are makers of history, passed away. Within a mere seven years Top Channel’s Tani managed to accomplish on his own what takes countries like Albania seventy years to achieve. He lived his life at 300 kilometers per hour seizing his dream and setting ablaze the screen of the new Century in an Albania which still stands in the side wings of the old century. The magnificent work which Top Channel’s Tani built with the intuition of a genius and the passion of a child is a success model equal to a frenetic pace of life, always at the helm. No slackening of the speed even for a split second.
Behind the talented professionals who in the microphones of Top Albania Radio and on the screens of Top Channel found an oasis of their growth in optimal conditions, was the life of a man in an unremitting search for perfection. Behind the perpetual introductions of latest discoveries in communications, modern news room formats, the scathing laughter of Fiks Fare and the hilarity of Portokalli, the music of Top Fest and the roar of the crowds in the world’s Super Sports stadiums live, behind all of this was the life of a man competing with time.
His exist forever from this world which was never big enough to confine him, leaves in its wake feelings of deep sorrow for what Albania lost today, together with an aching grief within myself for the loss of an extraordinary man whom I had the fortune to know closely from the days when he began breathing life into a dream which he had been born to build and to which he dedicated his life.
