Ever since their president, Dr John Pombe Magufuli, 55, was elected into office on October 25, 2015, Tanzanians have turned our lives into a hell.

A day hardly passes before you read snippets on social media and in newspapers about yet another ‘strange’ and provocative act by this new enigmatic president in our neighbourhood.

First, we heard that he made a surprise visit to Muhimbili national hospital to check on the state of service delivery there. We hear shoulders moved because he was displeased with what he saw, and that, since then, things are changing in that hospital. Yes dear Tanzanians, good for you, but don’t throw it in our faces.

Do you know how it feels for us to hear of such impossible things to be happening in a neighbouring country? You could have saved us from Idi Amin, but that didn’t give you the right to keep giving us a feeling that things are wrong here. Keep your fairytales to yourselves please.

That our president has never made such surprise visits to our Mulago national referral hospital does not mean he does not care about us and our health. It is because you can afford to lose your president that you would allow him to do such risky things. Do you know how unsafe such hospitals are? Would our president’s security detail fit in those wards?

If you had ever been to Mulago, you would know that the floors are also occupied; our dear liberator would have nowhere to step. And what if those old shaky beds and drip stands collapsed and injured him? Where else would we get another good president?

Besides, you should know that we are okay and not complaining. Do not make us feel like our own leaders do not care. It is true that many of them, and a few of us, come to your countries for treatment. I think you are misreading this otherwise good gesture. We only come there in a spirit of good neighbourliness and pan-Africanism, not that we lack proper medical care here.

It is in the same spirit and in promotion of inter-state relations that once in a while we may send our daughters to give birth from Germany. Simple knowledge of diplomacy that escapes you!

We also hear that, in a bid to boost government coffers, your president passed a ban on public servants’ foreign travels. He ordered that all tasks that necessitated government officials to travel abroad would now be done by the country’s high commissioners and ambassadors abroad. I laughed hard on this one! Does this president care for his public servants? How could a patriotic leader do that?

Here our economy is doing very well; so, we don’t need lessons on spending. Our fleet of ministers, MPs, and other officials are free to travel to attend all sorts of meetings. Whether the country benefits in proportion to the expenses on their travels is not your business. Uganda is not Tanzania. Do you know our history?

Do you know how we suffered in the past? So, if you see our leaders moving in convoys of huge cars with heavy security detail, do not start making silly comparisons with your country.

Considering what the stories from Tanzania make Ugandans feel, don’t you realise that our good leaders need tight security? The actions of your president are harmful propaganda for us.

Your president is not the first to call for modesty in public expenditure. We also had a president with such a sense of humour between 1986 and 1996. He wondered why African leaders would ride in expensive cars and import beds from abroad while there were cheaper options. We miss him ever since he was kidnapped by power.

Nevertheless, our current president has been so good to you. As Uganda president, he has attended three presidential handover ceremonies in your country. From Ali Hassan Mwinyi to Benjamin Mkapa, Mkapa to Jakaya Kikwete, and recently from Kikwete to Magufuli.

What more love do you need? Do you imagine how painful it is to witness things you do not believe in? And all you do to pay us back for this love is to elect a president that makes changes in Tanzania which will incite hatred for leaders in Uganda and cause demand for change!

You know that it is election time in Uganda; how could you do this to us at such a moment!
When we get our own Magufuli, we shall ‘revenge’.

Slum tours in Dar es Salaam Tanzania

Dar es Salaam – City Growth Out of Control?



Dar es Salaam is the largest city in Tanzania and the biggest economic centre of the country. The city’s population has doubled from two million in 1990 to four million today. According to population experts the city will hit the eight million mark within 20 years it Tanzania’s growth rate of 3% per year continues.

Many poor people pour into Dar es Salaam from the countryside every day, most of them in search of a new life. They set up huts made of wood or sleep on the streets. According to the United Nations about 70% of Dar es Salaam’s people live in slums. There is no medical care and the slums lack transportation services. On the other side there are the superrich, wealthy businessmen who can afford to live in luxurious houses along the coast or in the city’s noble districts.




Now the government is worried that the growth of the city will spin out of control. It has a plan to expand Dar es
Salaam the way Singapore has done in the past decades.

Urban Poverty in Tanzania on the Rise

DODOMA, Tanzania – Many nonprofit organizations are mainly focused on improving the lives of poor Tanzanians living in rural areas. The rural population is usually considered to be the group most affected by disease, hunger, poverty and illiteracy. However, the situation for those living in urban areas is often just as dire.

Urban poverty in Tanzania is among the worst in Africa. More than six million Tanzanians live in urban slums and this number is increasing by an average of six percent every year. Tanzania currently has the third highest slum growth rate in Africa.

Conditions in Tanzania’s urban slums are often appalling. People often lack access to clean water and basics services like education, healthcare and sanitation facilities. Water and sanitation conditions in many slums have actually gotten worse in recent years. Water sources are often contaminated and sanitation facilities are usually shoddily built. Pit latrines, the most common form of sanitation in slums, usually collapse during the rainy season because of poor construction.

Health is a serious concern in urban slums. Diseases like malaria, typhoid and dengue fever are commonplace and access to medication is extremely limited. According to the World Health Organization, six percent of Tanzanians are infected with HIV/AIDS. This figure increases to 11 percent in urban areas. HIV infection rates are particularly bad in slums because people live in close proximity to one another, speeding up transmission. Also, people are often misinformed on how HIV is transmitted and access to contraceptives is limited.

Tanzania Corruption Report



Snapshot
orruption is pervasive throughout Tanzanian society and is a serious problem across all sectors of the economy. The most affected sectors are government procurement, land administration, taxation and customs. Petty corruption in dealings with traffic, customs and immigration officers deters investment. Corruption is criminalized under the Prevention and Combating of Corruption Act (PCCA), which covers attempted corruption, extortion, passive and active bribery, money laundering and bribery of a foreign official. A range of legislations cover other corruption offences, but anti-corruption laws are applied inconsistently and are poorly enforced. Gift-giving and the use of facilitation payments for the purpose of inducing corrupt behavior are illegal under the PCCA. However, companies should note these practices can be commonly encountered when doing business in Tanzania.

Tanzania Corruption Report

Tanzanians think corruption in their country has declined. The reality is very different

John Pombe Magufuli became president of Tanzania in 2015, and the perception among Tanzanians is that the corruption issues that used to plague the country’s government improved drastically since then. International corruption-watch organizations, however say nothing has really changed.

A May 2017 survey (pdf) by Afrobarometer, a research network, shows that over 70% of Tanzanians believe corruption in the country had decreased “somewhat” or “a lot” in the previous year. This is in stark contrast to the results of a similar survey in 2014, when only 13% reported they believed corruption had decreased in the previous year.

Magufuli immediately began leading anti-corruption efforts that led to the sacking of hundreds of civil servants who allegedly forged academic certificates, and the arrest of two key players involved in the economic scandal, moves viewed by many as a sign of progress in his agenda to address corruption.

But local perceptions don’t match global measurements. According to Transparency International’s 2016 corruption perception index, Tanzania ranked 117th out of 175 countries in 2013; in 2016, it came in at 116 of 176. The index measures corruption based on assessments and surveys from a variety of organizations that monitor governance in different countries, and assigns a score between 0 (“highly corrupt”) and 100 (“very clean”). From 2013 to 2016, Tanzania’s score actually dropped a point, from 33 to 32.

Hizi ndo athari za kumtegemea mtu mmoja, eti yeye ndo mkombozi yeye ndo waziri, hakimu mkuu, daktari hadi na nesi yaani kila kitu. Akisema hapa kazi tu haya ndo alikuwa anayamaanisha. Walishiba sana sahani za pilau sasa wanatamani watapike.
