It is absurd and indeed disrespectful to Abbas Sykes' legacy to write more about Nyerere than Abbas Sykes on an Abbas Sykes obituary.
Especially if the writer is notoriously known as being aggrieved due to the so called injustice done to his ilk (the Sykes and other Dar/ coastal patricians as well as prominent and seminal old timer do gooders) following some grotesque and deliberate omissions in history by Nyerere and his trapeze act troupe of mandarins, scribes and pharisees in the establishment's literati cabal of unmitigated shameless propaganda fueled by institutional obfuscation and opacity, allegedly especially levelled by the intelligentsia against Muslims.
You are making Nyerere as powerful as some supermassive black hole at the center of the Tanzanian galaxy, everything revolves around him. More than 21 years after his death, this Nyerere phenomenon seems to bend space and time.
Even Abbas Sykes' obituary, by an acclaimed proponent of redressing the shortcomings of orthodoxy history, starts with Nyerere's funeral, and does not progress an inch past this gargantuan Nyerere vortex that sucks everything around it.
Your collective lack of imagination is only surpassed by your weird penchant for self contradiction.
Your calcified sense of hero worship fills your mind's eye with a cognitive dissonance blindspot that leads you back to supporting namedropping Nyerere disproportionately on an Abbas Sykes obituary.
As if Abbas Sykes is some lightweight figure whose importance is not significant enough unless he is repeatedly projected as one of Nyerere's used and forgotten once upon a time buttressing lackey.
You are shooting yourself in the foot, right before a marathon, and then you blame this shooting on some intricate alien conspiracy against you.
