New administration under Samia Suluhu gives hope after 5 years of hopelessness

New administration under Samia Suluhu gives hope after 5 years of hopelessness

The speech of Madam president today has given new hope of abiding to the rule of law and good governance which activists were clamouring for years.

We are beginning to see commitment to the rule of law and good governance after the rights of whistle blower will be restored. No more incitement to be used to clamp down freedom of speech and expression.

Without freedom of speech and expression the fight against official graft is lost even before it started because in opaque graft thrive unimpeded.

We are planning to follow closely the challenges and achievements of this new administration without biasness in the next four years or so.

As usual we will attempt to focus in the rule of law and good governance.
Mama hana lolote, anaupiga mwingi kwa kuacha ujinga w enzi ya Kikwete uendelee. Sasa nchi imeyumba sana na ujinga wa enzi ile umerudi upyaaaaaaa, no one works huko serikalini na rushwa imerudi pale pale so we are back to normal.
 
DUAL CITIZENSHIP DOES NOT LEAD TO AUTOMATIC LOSS OF TANZANIAN CITIZENSHIP, THERE IS A DUE PROCESS THE INTERIOR MINISTER HAS TO RELIGIOUSLY FOLLOW!



Nothing in the citizenship laws there is a provision leading to automatic loss of citizenship once one renounces her citizenship by becoming a citizen of another country.

In fact, the interior minister needs to declare and register that declaration is what the law says..

The law promulgate a due process before one loses citizenship after renunciation.

Although the law is silent on the right to be heard before, citizenship rights are revoked, but since those rights are constitutional provided the interior minister is required to hear the dual citizens before renouncing their citizenship and registering that declaration.

To the best of our knowledge but we stand to be corrected such a laborious and tasking exercise is yet to be undertaken because the real reason behind citizenship renunciation is evidence of committing heinous crimes against the state purely on divided loyalty.

We have never had such a case so far, although politicians have been quick to stir the subject stoked by unfounded torn loyalty.


If the minister cannot establish a ground of treason or treachery or sabotage or quisling or espionage to abetting unfair advantage to an alien nation of which the suspect clutches dual citizenship and is found guilty then the minister in question has no justifiable ground to cause a hearing and make declaratory reliefs and registration of those decisions.


Without being criminally charged and found guilty of crimes provoked by torn loyalty the interior minister cannot be a judge of his own cause and make those declaration followed by registration of citizenship renunciation because he will not be able to establish how the Republic has suffered as a result of dual citizenship. Perceptions and wild imaginations never a sufficient cause to renounce citizenship on grounds of torn loyalty.


OUR TAKE.

Why does everybody presume automatic citizenship renunciation after acquisition of alien citizenship is very confounding to us, to put it mildly.

Is the dual citizenship case now snaking into our judicial corridors well founded in law. We think not.

Haya siyo majibu ya serikali sikivu. Swala la uraia pacha ni haki ya binadamu ya kujisitiri siyo swala la kidemokrasia linalohitaji matakwa ya wengi


Mfumo wa vyama vingi tuliukubali pamoja na wengi tuliona hauna tija. Sababu ya kuukubali ilikuwa ni haki ya kimsingi ambayo haina uhusiano wowote na maoni.

Hivi wengi mmejuaje hawataki uraia pacha wakati haijafanyika kura ya maoni ambayo nayo hata ikifanyika hatuna uhakika mtaheshimu matokeo yake hasa tukizingatia wizi wa kura ndiyo utamaduni wetu sasa.

Kura hakuna anayehesabu maana matokeo mnayo mfukoni.
 



Rushwa TRA sasa ni tishio la usalama wa taifa. Tuliwaambia wateule wengi wa Rais ni vinara wa rushwa lakini wamepuuza.

Tulisema PM apigwe shoka hajui hata majukumu yake zaidi ya kuwa chawa wa mama. Sasa hivi PM amekuwa anafukuzana na gozi wakati nyama tayari imeliwa na hata mifupa imelambwa sasa ana msaada gani? Kufunga suti tu na tai ndiyo tija nayo hiyo?

Kazi yake ni kum'mwagia Mheshimiwa misifa ya vilemba vya ukoka lakini hatatui kero.
Na hii sasa imekuwa ni laana ya taifa kila mteule wa Rais lazima amtaje na kudai katenda yote na sisi raia ni watazamaji wa jinsi anavyosakata gozi na kutufungia magoli ya kisigino jambo ambalo siyo kweli hata chembe.


Tulisema uteuzi wa Mwiguru baraza la mawaziri kunashusha hadhi ya serikali kwani hana sifa za kuvalia njuga kero za wananchi bali kututambia yeye ni daktari wa falsafa ya uchumi jambo ambalo halina uhusiano wowote na utatuzi wa kero zetu. Uzalendo wake uko kwenye kuvaa tai zenye rangi na nembo za taifa na wala siyo kukaza buti na kudhibiti rushwa iliyokithiri TRA dhidi ya raia wasiyo na hatia.

Malalamiko ya walipakodi yako ndani ya mamlaka ya waziri wa fedha lakini kapiga ganzi na PM anamlinda.

USHAURI KWA MHESHIMIWA RAIS

Wananchi bado wanaimani kubwa na wewe lakini usichukulie poa. Siku watakapojua hutatui kero zao watakuhama na hawatarudi. Usisahau wahenga wako fiti pale wasemapo "maneno matupu hayavunji mfupa." Watamtafuta mfariji mwingine na watampata.


Shusha shoka na uwatimue PM na Mwiguru kwa utendaji mbovu teua wengine wenye rekodi ya kutatua kero za wananchi.

Ukiendelea kuwalinda itakula kwako.

Huu siyo wakati wa vikao kutatua matatizo yanayoeleweka. Wanaotuhumiwa wanapokea rushwa wakabidhiwe TAKUKURU na waondolewe TRA na kupelekwa maeneo mengine ambayo hawawezi kudai rushwa. Uongozi wote wa TRA utazamwe upya kwa sababu wameshindwa kuwadhibiti walio chini yao hata kama unawapenda wajuze hawana viwango vinavyoridhisha vya uchapa kazi.


Hizi hatua madhubuti huhitaji vikao ni kufanya maamuzi tu ya papo kwa hapo na watumishi wengi wa umma watachangamka maana wanapiga usingizi tena wa pono. Pia tunahitaji ofisi ndani ya TRA kila wilaya kazi yao ni kushughulikia kero za walipakodi na kupunguza mrundikano wa kesi za ulipaji wa kodi. Kama zipo basi ziimarishwe kwa kupewa meno.

Wale ambao ni mwendo wa konokono haisaidii ukiwabeza tu kwa kuwaita wajinga/stupid huku bado ndiyo wasaidizi wako unaowaamini! Tafsiri yake hata tusingependa kuidadavua hapa.
 
Why I think Tulia is unsuitable to lead IPU

The Citizen May 17, 2023 5:15 AM

The news came through late last week that the government of Tanzania is supporting the candidature of our speaker of parliament, Dr Tulia Ackson, to lead the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) for a few years. It is a body composed of most parliaments and, no doubt, very prestigious. It is reportedly now the turn of Africa, and the gender card is in consideration.

As much as it would be a wonderful thing to see a Tanzanian occupy that post, I'm sorry to say that our speaker is most unsuitable as far as I'm concerned. Dr Tulia is the sad epitome of all that has gravely gone wrong in Tanzania over the years.

The foreign minister, Dr Stergomena Tax, in making an appeal to the international community to rally behind Tanzania, tried to project a romantic image of an era long gone and buried with Julius Nyerere.

The Tanzania we have evolved into is one where Dr Tulia's predecessor, Job Ndugai, could physically attack a fellow parliamentary candidate without any form of questioning from his party or the government. Instead, he was rewarded with the speakership.

It is the case that virtually everything in the political affairs of Tanzania with a bearing on the direction of travel is handled in the dark. This darkness speaks to how Tulia found herself nominated to the National Assembly in 2015 and made deputy speaker by fast-tracking in the most inscrutable fashion.

And one very noticeable aspect of her job was the level of security that accompanied her. I only ask myself what it will be like on the roads if she becomes the IPU president.

As 2020 beckoned, it became imperative that Dr Tulia seek a parliamentary seat. Given the unashamed machinations of the Magufuli regime, it was a walk in the park.

The ramifications of the manner in which Tanzania has been whimsically run have been to reduce our parliament to an arm of the executive. Today, Tanzania dares put forward a name to lead the IPU.

Surely? On what grounds if it is not an individual seeking to bolster her inglorious political standing?

It wouldn't be stretching it one bit to find that Dr Tulia has her eye on the presidency of the country, and the IPU is being viewed as a feather in her cap. I'm reminded here of a Tanzanian lady who became the first president of the Pan-African Parliament (PAP) and soon after developed the idea that her star could shine more brightly. I’m afraid it only dimmed after.


It was with thorough bemusement that I read in The Citizen, Dr Tax describing Dr Tulia as "a distinguished politician, a remarkable lawyer, and an accomplished academician who has demonstrated maturity, professionalism, dynamism, and outstanding leadership skills throughout her career."

Judging by her years in academia at the University of Dar es Salaam, I have yet to come across any original thoughts expressed by her. There is absolutely nothing worth noting about Tanzania or Africa from her perspective. And I’m not even here to go close to matters of the constitution that go beyond the intellectual capacity of many of the political class in Tanzania. I’m speaking about the manifold legal challenges that someone of her academic background ought to have something of interest to say publicly.


One serious dimension of Dr Tulia’s speakership that I wish to inform the readers of is the likelihood of her facing turbulent political waters in the Mbeya Urban constituency come 2025. The lady is also already advocating for the split of the constituency for population reasons, but it only stirs up images of someone running scared.

This whole scenario would augur terribly for IPU. Let other female presiding officers on the continent of decent standing come forward. I can easily think of the South African one as suitable.


On a final note, in examining Dr Tulia, I thought it worth revisiting an article I wrote on the 9th of February, 2022, headlined, "Is our parliament fit for purpose"?

This followed the elevation of Tulia to presiding officer.

"In spite of all the mad rush, CCM, after many twists and turns shrouded in mystery, eventually settled on a candidate in the name of Dr Tulia Ackson Mwansasu, a ‘headmistress-like’ young lady who was previously deputising Ndugai...

"The depressing sight continued just after Madam Tulia had made her pitch. Some singing broke out but was nipped in the bud for obviously embarrassing reasons. Moments before, a candidate was showered with money for his presentation. All beneath the dignity of the hallowed chamber.

"To cap off the day's events, even a member of the so-called Covid-19 women MPs from Chadema had the temerity to ask an opposition candidate a question...

"And when it did come down to the declaration of the victor, the CCM candidate won every vote, including from whatever minuscule opposition there is in the House. Not even a protest vote!

"That is our 21st century Bunge"!

Tanzania mustn’t be the site for the export of cruel jokes to the rest of the world, for crying out loud! Democracy is the name of the game, we are told. The IPU deserves much better from Africa!
