We are under new tyranny, 21st century tyranny. Where we citizens fear our own government. We are under new challenges of the new age, once again we are facing these challenges of a new age. People are under threats, we are under threats from the government and we fear our own government we voted for.
We are being tortured, he has been assassinated and who will be the next to be assassinated among us? Terrorism is something common now, no one cares deeply and even the government itself, we enjoyed peace and security inherited from our founders but now we are no longer at peace, we are insecure.
Our freedom of speech is scarce, we can’t even raise a voice over our own government yet cyber laws still oppress us. Here we are, once more marching toward an unknown future because democracy is denied, our government is ambitionless and the government listen much the ruling party than the oppositional party. We know the promise of that moment has not yet been fully fulfilled and yet our promise too is not fulfilled, we cannot fulfill it with the current constitution.
All these challenges can be met, we together can meet these challenges and move this great nation forward again. We can only meet these challenges of our age by forging true justice, justice that allows no one rules above the law. We have to bestow justice to it place, a place where every human has to be treated equally, both women and men have to be equal under the law and whereby no status or any leader or anyone has to be above the rule of law or above the law. We are all born equal, we are all equal under the eyes of GOD, and we are all equal under the graces of GOD.
Every voice of a human matters, every human is worth, every human deserve to be treated equal and with decency and with equality. New beacons of justice have to be bestowed by forging new laws of 21st century and it’s when we will have a new 21st century constitution that solves new challenges of our age. Striving for new constitution that should be your dream, my dream and our dream but the folks say it’s a dream for oppositional political parties only. Let’s tell the folks that this dream is for every patriots and our dream can be achieved by attaining 21st century democracy. Whereby everyone will have a true right to vote or to be voted freely and fairly without caring the party he or she belongs and no one shall be above the law or above the rule of law. Democracy with true balance of power and general assembly that will be inside the new constitution we want.
We need to attain this democracy that will let us and the Medias speech freely, question anyone and question any leader in matters we need to know. Democracy brings out freedom while freedom brings out prosperity, our societies and our nation can prosper when our citizen are more free and secure.
We are not the first to speak about these challenges but we are determined to be the last generation to end these challenges. I still believe that we can be one people, we can do great things and tasks together and am so humbled to see this great task ahead of us, I know it will be accomplished if we become together as one people. We are determined to bring our country to a great vision that no one have ever imagined.
I have seen our younger generation full of energy and ideas not constrained of whom they are but they are ready to see what they have to become for themselves and their nation. We are the young generation constrained by our constitution that jeopardize rule of law, compromise our freedom of speech and strictly limit our right to assemble. Our current Constitution it doesn’t fit in this century, we must amend it and lay new laws that fit in this century.
They shall try to divide us using our parties we belong. The system built to divide us and destroy us cannot stand if we choose unity over division. The system built to divide us is a little bit fearing and intimidating but if we fear, fear itself the system shall not stand. We must pray and we will be comforted by a power of the Almighty God greater than any of us, spoken through the ages: “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, for you are with me.”
Let me say again, our freedom of speech is limited now and we are being terrorized, no security anymore and our fellow citizens are being terrorized while some are taken to court. The Lord is our light and our salvation; whom shall we fear? The Lord is the stronghold of our lives; of whom shall we be afraid? When evildoers assail us to devour my flesh – Our adversaries and my foes – They shall stumble and fall We are not the first to speak about these evils but we are determined to be the last generation to end these evils.
Today I say to you that these challenges, tyranny, evils and tasks we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, in Tanzania they shall be met. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea, passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness.
In reaffirming the greatness of our nation, we need to understand that greatness is never given. It must be earned. Our journey to a new constitution is not one of short-cuts or settling for less. It is not the path for the fainthearted for those who prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. It is the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things and the brave reached Canaan, they saw the Promised Land but they had to endure a lot more than that written in the scriptures. We need to endure so until we can reach the mountain top.
For us, Chief Mkwawa fought for the colonialist so as we can be free, For us, Kinjekitile Ngwale risked the life of his people by telling them WATER can help them to fight the whites. For us many of our ancestors and founders of this great nation fought for us so
as we can be free from the whites. It’s our ancestors and founders who fought IDD AMIN DADA for our land, they had to go war so as we can have this land we have inherited from them. And for us many of our ancestors had to endure slavery, oppressions, rape, murders, intimidations and tortures because they believed their efforts won’t waste in vain.
They pressured the whites, they pressured the colonialists and they fought every bans enacted to oppress them. They didn’t give up on this country. They didn’t give up on their own government they dreamt for. We must do something not only for ourselves, but also for our children, and their children. That's a sacrifice that falls on us to make. It's a much smaller sacrifice than the Moses generation had to make for the generation of the Israelites but it's still a sacrifice and its sacrifice we have to make for my daughter, your child and your children and their children too.
So, yes, we're passing through difficult moments. It’s difficult in some time. But let's always remember that, the Tanzanian people, we've been some difficult moments before. This country was found during some harsh rules and difficult moments. But our ancestors and founders have been in the hardest moments than us, seeking the light of justice, freedom and independence from the colonialists.
What we need to do is to just ask what lessons we can learn from those earlier generations about how they sustained themselves during those hard rules and moments, how they persevered and prevailed. Let us in this Joshua generation learn how that Moses generation overcame. But our time of standing pat, of protecting narrow interests and putting off unpleasant decisions - that time has surely passed. Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the task of remaking Tanzania for the coming generations like how our ancestors and founders did for us.
We don’t need to somehow say our government is the problem; let’s say, we're going to change government, we're going to make it better. Imperfect as we want, let’s continue to believe in the promise of democracy; in Tanzania's constant ability to remake itself, to perfect this union We can meet this great task together, you can choose that future for this nation. Its nation that you and the coming generation shall live.
The task of remaking Tanzania starts by attaining a new constitution, the constitution that shall let the law enforcement enforce law not torture or intimidation or corruption or inequality or oppression. For everywhere we look, there is task to be done by us. The state of our economy calls for action, bold and swift, and we will act. But the task of amending the constitution should come first because it will set us to a new Tanzanian promise. It will let us take to justice and punish all corrupt leaders, embezzled leaders and irresponsible leaders. And yet it will let us question and challenge the government in power that is constitution we demand for.
Does the government fear us? Or do we fear the government? When governments fear the people, there is liberty and justice. And when the people fear the government, there is tyranny. Our liberty is lost, we need to attain it and we need to attain new justice. How will we attain it? We can attain it by amending the constitution. The government is our servant, not our master! Government exists for the interests of the governed, not for the governors. When we amend the constitution we shall be able to bring to justice all governors that stand for their interests and misuse power.
One of the folks said “Arusha deserve better” but all of the Tanzanian majority deserve better not only Arusha. We deserve better until we have a new constitution. The better we deserve can’t be brought by CCM only or UKAWA only but us together we can bring the better we deserve for our nation. The better we deserve can be brought by having new laws. Not laws that suggest our leaders should know to read and write only, but laws that demand them bachelor degrees, masters and doctorates. And not laws that place most of the power to the president.
I’m more optimistic in the future of Tanzania than ever before because there is no problem we cannot solve together, there is no destiny we can’t fulfill when we are together, together as one nation. Though we are far behind we always know our climb is not steep and we must know in our heart this time must be different. We should not stand just for the interests of the parties we belong too but for the common hope we have and that is the new constitution. The new constitution will takes us to a new fundamental direction that is what
Tanzania deserve, that is what every Tanzania deserve. Change is what we need, New Constitution can bring us to change. Change has never been easy and never quick and we won’t meet all of our problems in one term or one presidency or in one lifetime. We are not done yet perfecting our union because we are after interests of our parties we belong too, we are after our own interests and we care less on the future of nation. We are still selfish.
All these mistakes need to be fixed, have to be fixed by us. Mistakes of the past shall stay in the past and shall have no place in our way to our future. Also old hatreds need to be fixed, have to be fixed with love. We are divided because of our parties we belong too but this matter of having a new 21st century constitution, it’s not a matter oriented to a certain party but it’s a matter oriented to our nation, to the future of our nation.
Our ancestors and our Founders did not bring IDD AMIN DADA to justice because they had a strong army than him or they had powerfully weapons of that time than him. It’s because they decided to fight for their coming generation and it’s because they came together for a common purpose, they chose division over unity. And it’s when it was proved that we can do great things together.
Our founders and ancestors mastered their time, let’s master ours too. We can only master by enacting new laws that fit in this century. Laws that will benefit every individual in our generation and the coming generations. Let's work to change the political system, as imperfect as it is. I know people can feel down about the way things are going currently in Tanzania. I know it's tempting to give up on the political process. But it's progress. Progress is possible. Don't give up on seeking a new constitution. Don't give up on advocacy. Don't give up on activism. There are too many needs to be met, too much work to be done until we have a new constitution we want.
We all pledge this great flag with four meaningfully beautiful colors. Tanzania shall move forward again after restoring a new constitution. We have never been a nation that say “someone will do for us” we always say that “together we will do it”. No one can change for us the constitution, we together can change it in the faces of our ideas, perceptions, views and values and we together can restore justice again. That is the only way to end these new tyranny.
The new constitution is the only way to our future and is the only way to our new promise, new Tanzanian promise. It will take us to a new fundamental direction, we are dreaming for. It will restore democracy and justice to itsplace. The government will be made transparent again, irresponsible leaders will be made accountable and responsible again. We will retain our freedom of speech, oppressing cyber laws will be amended and the election shall be free and fair. Still more we have to change from the current constitution. This great Nation will endure, as it has endured, will revive and will prosper.
Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any government goes beyond our interest, to assure the survival and the success of liberty of this great nation. Let both sides explore what problems unite us instead of belaboring those problems which divide us.
AMANI, UMOJA NA UPENDO that shall be a creed passed from generation to generations as found by our founders, MUNGU IBARIKI AFRIKA NA MUNGU IBARIKI TANZANIA.
