Pretending that the video is not a fake, I would answer you as follows: You can`t judge someone`s intellect from the use of a borrowed language even if he used it throughout his studies. I have good examples to back that, some of which are Chinese friends I know who went to English medium universities after taking intensive English courses in their country and some out of their country but who can`t make any serious conversation in English. But that doesn`t mean that, they didn`t gain from the studies they took in English, they are very good in their professions and you can`t talk in their backs in English without them understanding what you are saying.
Magufuli using English in a speech might have been caused by many reasons some of which can be; The absence of an interpreter or he thought he could make matters more clearer if he spoke himself.
Even if the video was true and not a fake, you can`t disqualify someone with a good achievement record in his career for a thoughtless reason as, the inability to use a language that doesn`t belong to him and which he learned in school. English didn`t build our roads and bridges.
I think someone who deserves to be disqualified is who mentioned in church, that its time for Northerners and Lutherans to lead Tanzanians. Such a statement might sound simple to you, but for those who know our history, it meant a lot. In the 1960`s Northerners tried to create their own republic, something which led to the exile of one of their famous Local Chiefs from that part to Rome. If our intention is to keep our peace and stay united, why these statements?
The person we need to be banish from the election process, is someone who doesn`t have a history of achieving anything in his career except for claims of accomplishments he puts forward without even simple proof.
The person we need to banish from the election process is someone who claims to have done tough decisions without telling us what those tough decisions were exactly so we could know.
The person we need to banish from the election process, is that someone who can`t argue and present matters in his mother tongue to convince us that he deserves our vote.
The person who needs to go, is someone who is telling us that our children will have free education from nursery school to university without showing us how.
The person who needs to go, is someone who can`t remember stuff and yet his gang is trying to convince us that he will bring changes through very well thought ideas.
Lets stop arguing about trivial matters when we have very serious issues to discuss which are more important to our country.
We don`t need a beggar president who will elude us with his English while governing our country on a foreign dime. We need someone we can understand, we are not English or Americans.
