Mkandara,
Wajumbe naojadili ni wa baraza la mapinduzi zanzibar, sio baraza la wawakilishi, na Okello anatajwa na vyanzo vinavyotumika na Shivji; kuna nyaraka ya Shivji inasema hivi:
Legislative Powers Law-The Zanziba Gazette (Gazeti Kuu La Serikali), Vol LXXIII, No.43371,
Registered at G.P.O as a newspaper, 6th February, 1964. General Notice No.111.
LEGAL SUPPLEMENT
The under mentioned legal notice is published in the Legal supplement to his number of the Zanzibar Gazette Extraordinary:-

Then inafuatia orodha ya wajumbe wa BLM, na jina la Okello ni la kumi na moja kati ya majina 30, likiandikwa: Field Marshall John Okello.
Nikipata muda nina scan hii document and share it accordingly.
Mag3,
Unachojadili kuhusu okello kimeandikwa na shivji kama ifuatavyo:
"While the government was violently toppled in Unguja, Pemba was calm, utterly unruffled. Jumbe says that he personally knew the government administrators in Pemba. On Sunday evening he rang them and advised them to raise the ASP flag the next day if they wanted to avoid blood shed. ("I was threatening them!", he said). It was only next week that a number of people including Jumbe and Okello went to Pemba. Okello arrested some Arabs and terrorised and humiliated the asians and arab population as a warning. Otherwise Pemba did not participate in the insurrection in any form. At best, the population there was either indifferent or leaderless and lost. Ali Sultan Issa, a Pemban Arab and a Cuban trained Umma cadre was installed as the administrator of pemba.
Kama nilivyowasilisha awali, a CIA memo ya mwaka 1964 assessing the 4 years of the union inaeleza kwamba waliopitisha muungano ilikuwa ni only one third of the 30 members of the revolutionary council, which means wajumbe kumi. Swali kwamba ni kina nani, Shivji anatupatia indication ni kina nani wakiongozwa na Karume na Shamte. Kwa maana hii, ratification ya articles ilifanywa kwa idadi ya kura theluthi moja; swali linalofuata ni je, kanuni ya theluthi mbili anayojadili
Barubaru ilikuwa ni kwa mujibu wa sheria zipi za zanzibar? Kama ni kwa kanuni za kimataifa anazojadili barubaru, ni sheria zipi wakati mkataba wa muungano ndio ilikuwa ni nyaraka ya kwanza kwa serikali ya zanzibar kutia saini katika kiwango cha kimataifa? These are just mind boggling questions;
Pamoja na umuhimu wa masuala haya for our records, hayana umuhimu sana kuliko kazi iliyo mbele yetu ya kuizindua Tanganyika kwani hivyo ndivyo zanzibar pia itapata mamlaka yake ya kweli.
