HISTORIA YA HERMANN VON WISSMANN KATIKA VITABU VYANGU VIWILI
Tuanze na sanamu ya Hermann von Wissmann.

Picha na maelezo hayo hapo chini nimeyatoa mahali katika mtandao na nimefanya uhariri kidogo:

''Kabla ya sanamu ya askari iliyowekwa na Waingereza 1927, awali palikuwa na sanamu ya Gavana wa Deutsch-Ostafrika (DOA), Herman Wissmann iliyowekwa 1911.''

Napenda kuwaeleza wasomaji wangu nilivyomwandika Hermann von Wissmann katika kitabu cha Abdul Sykes historia hii ikiwa imetoka kwenye kinywa cha Affande Plantan akimweleza mwanae wa kulea Kleist Sykes kabla kifo chake tarehe 11 December, 1914.

Kisha In Shaa Allah nitamweleza Wissmann katika historia ya Muro Mboyo wa Machame Nkuu aliyeishi wakati Wajerumani wanaingia Tanganyika mwishoni mwa miaka ya 1800.

Historia hii ipo katika kitabu cha Rajabu Ibrahim Kirama.

Affande Plantan amezikwa makaburi ya Ilala karibu na Uwanja wa Mpira wa Karume.
Muro Mboyo amezikwa Machame Nkuu katika ya ardhi yake mwenyewe.

''Efffendi Plantan, Sykes Mbuwane na mamluki wengine wa Kizulu walikuja Tanganyika katika meli ya kivita ya Wajerumani iliyotia nanga Pangani mwaka 1894.

Wazulu hawa walitokea Inhambane, Msumbiji iliyokuwa ikitawaliwa na Wareno.

Kijiji chao kilikuwa kinajulikana kama Kwa Likunyi.

Mjerumani aliyewaleta toka huko alikuwa na sifa ya kuwa mwanajeshi na mvumbuzi, Harmine von Wissman.

Wazulu wenyewe walikuwa wakiwaeleza watoto wao kuwa:

''Wajerumani waliweka mkataba na Mohosh, Chifu wa Inhambane nchini Msumbiji, kuwa watu wake watakwenda na Wajerumani hadi Tanganyika kupigana, wakakubaliana kuwa ardhi yoyote atakayoteka watagawana sawasawa kati ya Wazulu na Wajerumani.

Wajerumani waliwachukua Wazulu katika meli hadi Pangani chini ya uongozi wa Mohosh, shujaa wa vita ambaye baadae alikuja kujulikana kwa jina la Effendi Plantan.''

Naandika kitabu cha Rajabu Ibrahim Kirama nilimsoma tena Hermann von Wissmann katika mapambano na Wachagga.

Hivi ndivyo nilivyomweleza Wissman katika kitabu cha Rajabu Ibrahim Kirama:

''Mwaka wa 1890 Herman von Wissman baada ya kumaliza vita na Abushiri na kumnyonga alielekeza jeshi lake kaskazini na akamshambulia Mangi Sina katika vita vikali ambavyo jeshi la Sina lilionesha uhodari mkubwa wa mapambano.

Vita hivi vilinyanyua haiba ya Sina na Wajerumani wakanyoosha mkono wa urafiki na huo ndiyo ukawa mwisho wa uhasama baina ya Mangi Sina na Wajerumani.

Juu ya haya Rindi aliungana na Hermann von Wisssamann dhidi ya Sina na na hii ikapelekea kwa Sina kushindwa vita mwaka wa 1891.

Fitna na usaliti ukawa sasa ni moja ya silaha zilizowapa Wajerumani ushindi.

Sina alifariki mwaka wa 1899 akiwa kaacha sifa ya ushujaa wa vita mbele ya Wajerumani kwani peke yao hawakuweza kumshinda hadi ulipopitika usaliti dhidi yake.

Kunyongwa kwa Mangi Meli Old Moshi mwaka wa 1900 pengine yeye Muro Mboyo (baba yake Rajabu Ibrahim Kirama) akiwa shahidi wa mauaji yale ulikuwa ujumbe tosha kuwa nyakati zimebadika.

Meli kama ilivyokuwa kwa Abushiri na yeye alisalitiwa pia na wale aliokuwa akiwapigania."

Nimefarijika nimeelimika.

Je lengo la andiko lako ni kumuonesha Mjerumani kama shujaa ama.mhalifu aliyekuja kuambukiza dhambi ya usaliti kwenye jamii yetu iliyojijengea utu, ukarimu na upatanishi kabla ya watu weupe kuja?

Bayume Mohamed Husen askari mtoto wa Jeshi la Jeremani mwenyeji wa German East Africa

Bayume Mohamed Husen (named Mahjub bin Mohamed Adam at birth on February 22, 1904–November 24, 1944) was a soldier of Afro-German descent, an actor, and a Nazi persecution victim.

Bayume Mohamed Husen, an askari officer’s son, served in WW I with German troops in East Africa alongside his father. He was later employed to be a waiter on a shipping line from Germany, and in 1929, this enabled him to migrate to Germany. He married in January of 1933 and began a family. Husen backed the neocolonialist movement in Germany and donated to the Deutsche Afrika-Schau, which was previously a human zoo utilized by propagandists for the Nazis. Husen laboured as a waiter as well as a variety of lesser occupations, including language instruction and supporting roles in several African-themed German films. He was sent to KZ Sachsenhausen in 1941 and succumbed in 1944.

Bayume Mohamed Husen’s life was documented in a documentary film released in 2014 and a biography published in 2007.

Bayume Mohamed Husen’s Background​

Bayume Mohamed Husen was born in the city of Dar es Salaam, which was part of the former German East Africa. He was the son of a former askari officer who was an Effendi by rank. He had previously learnt German and was employed as a clerk in a textile plant in Lindi before World War I. In 1914, when World War I broke out, Husen and his father both joined Schutztruppe and fought against the Allies in East Africa’s campaign. Husen was captured in October of 1917 by British soldiers after being wounded during the Battle of Mahiwa.

Bayume Mohamed Husen served as a “servant (boy)” on numerous cruise ships after the war, and in 1925 he was employed as a waiter on the ship Deutsche Ost-Afrika Linie. He went to Berlin in 1929 to collect unpaid military wages for his father and himself, but the Foreign Office rejected his claims as being too late. Husen continued to be a waiter in Berlin. He taught Swahili to authorities and security people and worked as a tutor on low wages. E.g., for Diedrich Westermann, a renowned scholar.

On 27 January 1933, 3 days before Adolf Hitler took power, he married Maria Schwandner, a Sudeten German lady. They got a daughter named Annemarie (1936-1939) and a son, Ahmed Mohamed Husen Adam (1933–1938). Husen also had a son named Bodo Heinz Husen (1933-1945) from a previous connection with a German lady, Lotta Holzkamp, Schwandner adopted and raised him with his step-siblings.

Bayume Mohamed Husen Involvement in the Neocolonialist Movement​

, he applied for the “Frontkämpfer-Abzeichen,” which was the honour cross of the front-line veterans but was unsuccessful. In a mail addressed to the foreign office, Paul von Lettow-Vorbeck seemingly explicitly ruled out the instance of Husen, indicating that the German officials were generally unwilling to place the honour on “coloreds”. Husen did, however, wear the emblem and uniform of an askari that he most likely purchased from a dealer of military supplies while attending demonstrations of the neo-colonialist movement in Germany, which aimed to recapture Germany’s lost territories.

It’s unclear whether Bayume Mohamed Husen ever lost or received German citizenship. In Weimar Germany, it was normal practice to issue passports to immigrants from former colonies of Germany with the endorsement “German Protegee” (Deutscher Schutzbefohlener), which did not grant full citizenship. Following Hitler’s ascension to power and in respect to the Treaty of Versailles, black Germans who migrated from previous colonies were frequently considered citizens of the nation that had replaced Germany as the ruling colonial authority. No level of racial discrimination towards black Germans was akin to the systematic hate encountered by the Jewish minority, as shown by Hans Massaquoi’s case.


Various Assignments in Nazi Germany.​

Bayume Mohamed Husen went back to Tanganyika for a brief period in 1934 while filming Die Reiter von Deutsch-Ostafrika, where he played a minor character. In 1935, Husen was fired from his waitressing job at Haus Vaterland pleasure palace owing to racist allegations from two coworkers, stripping him of his main source of income. He was also said to have had ongoing disputes with the Humboldt (Friedrich Wilhelm) University of Berlin Seminar for oriental languages, where he previously taught the Swahili language to police trainees preparing to serve in the reclaimed German colonies following German triumph in the expected war, or even in the unlikely event of a reversal of the Treaty of Versailles’ colonial clauses.

Bayume Mohamed Husen entered the Deutsche Afrika-Schau in 1936, a kind of human zoo set up by the Foreign Office of Germany in an effort to reclaim its former colonies. The German Foreign Office hoped to employ Afro-Germans to counter foreign allegations that Nazi Germany was incapable of administering colonies. During the Battle of France and Occupation of the Rhineland, other sectors of the Nazi leadership attempted to employ foreign colonial forces as a tool for propaganda. Because of the war, the show was cancelled in 1940.

Husen applied for membership in the Wehrmacht when the French and British declared war on Germany but was turned down. Bayume Mohamed Husen featured in a minimum of twenty-three German films between 1939 and 1941, mostly as a supporting cast or in small speaking roles. Ramasan, a native companion of Carl Peters, a German colonialist in the film Ramasan released in 1941, was his final and most notable performance. Martin Heepe, an Africanist professor and linguistic scholar, allegedly harassed him, and he left the university in April of 1941. He had an affair on set with a German lady, and the authorities were informed.

The Gestapo apprehended Bayume Mohamed Husen on a racist allegation and incarcerated him at the Sachsenhausen concentration camp without trial. He died there in 1944.

Bayume Mohamed Husen’s Legacy​

Husen’s life was brought to the attention of a larger German audience in 2007 by Marianne Bechhaus-Gerst. Gunter Demnig, an artist, placed a stolperstein memorial stone in front of Husen’s former Berlin residence.

Majubs Reise, a 2014 documentary film directed by Eva Knopf, is centred around Husen’s life.
