Paschal,
I thought you have seen life and you are better than that. By insinuation, you are agreeing that TZ is a failed state and that is because of the immediate past president. Tanzania, became a failed state during JMK time and only came back to limelight after Magufuli. Of cause had serious problems with democracy. He failed to integrate democracy with his zeal to develop the nation. As a result, he made many enemies. It is these enemies who took his life. But then that is history.
Currently we are facing the problem of a comeback of those who took TZ to the dungeon. Those who made TZ a failed state. They are now busy blaming everything on Magufuli. A good leader does not blame on her failrues on what a past leader had done. In other countries you never hear a leader blaming a past one. They only work hard to let what they are doing show the difference. Even Magufuli never blamed Kikwete for anything, and that is what a determined good leader does.
Since Magufuli's death, all problems are due to him. When is the president and her people starting to be responsible for what they do. In all appearances efforts have been made by the current government to demonize Magufuli. SSH has actually done that by bring back failed ministers. Of course she has that mandate and freedom, she needs to be careful, investigate, and determine if there is need. She is not in opposition, therefore she should not look like as one in opposition. But, in reality actions shown by her is like that of a president from opposition.
I have said, one area Magufuli made serious or even grave mistakes is how he treated opposition. If SSH is really different (better) from Magufuli, why has she not let opposition have the freedom that was curtailed by Magufuli? Why is she afraid the katiba issue? I know a lot of people are blaming Magufuli for katiba. The right person to blame with katiba is Kikwete. He was not man enough to stand up and support katiba. He should have stood firm with CCM, but because the katiba had sections that curtailed presidential powers, he became in cahoots with the power hungry and all was reduced to useless piece of paper. It is time to ask SSH to be woman enough to support katiba, siyo kuleta mambo ya Kiswahili ya kucheka huku unang'ata.
