oh....kweli JF kuna raha.....kuna logic za duniani nyingine..Logic hizi ukimpa hata fisi anaweza kufa njaa.Masikini wee...kumbe wanafanya haya kwa kutojua wafanyalo... Akikuambia mwenyewe akogwe unamkoga?Akikuambia umtumie kuchamba?Akikuambia umuue?.....akikuambia umloge...?Son of Alaska, Ulinidhania ninapomchekea Yericko sijiwezi? Si kataka mwenyewe akogwe? Sasa unategemea nini kama nitamkoga? Nanawa uso basi?!
Yericko,
Bora nikakuoga.
Si unajua sisi huwa tuna kazi nyingine na maji achilia mbali kuoga.
Sidhani kama utafurahi kama wewe ukiwa maji nitakufanya hivyo.
Wickama kwa mujibu wa hadithi ya Mohamed, aliyeanzisha AA ni K.Sykes na kisha ikaenda enda kwa namna namna mara Abdul Kaibukia TAA, na hapo ndipo mambo yalipoanza kupamba moto ikiwa ni pamoja na kumuingiza katika siasa Nyerere kwa maraya kwanza walipoonana. Narudia ni kuwa mujibu wa maandiko na majidiliano ya Mohamed Said.Nicholas; Nadhani nitahitaji some help here. Kuna mahali nilishawahi soma kama vile Sir Donald Cameron ndiye aliyekuwa mwanzilishi wa hizi AA pamoja na indirect rule (though chiefs etc) kama mojawapo ya efforts zake kuwajenga waafrika na hata akakataa kuiunganisha tanganyika na kenya colony kuizuia tanganyika isimezwe na hilo colony. To be honest i need clarity kwa vile huwa inanichanganya naposoma juu ya AA--->TAA nani aliianzisha? kuna haja ya kutenga mwanzishaji na OFFICE bearers, unajua lolote? Au mimi nilielewa vibaya?
Hawajajaliwa kujua kuwa consistency,reliable na responsiple people..ndio maana watafight for peace huku wanaua kuliko wanaozuia, watapigania kitu kwa nguvu nyingine halafu baadaye wanakuja gundua kuwa wanatakiwa wageuke tena na kuendelea kupigana tena kurudi. NILIWAHI KUULIZA HUMU ITAWEZEKANAJE MAHAKAMA YA KADHI KUWEKWA KIKATIBA BILA KUINGIA KTK SHUTUMA KM ZILIZOIKUTA BAKWATA..kama kawaid ayao wakakurupuka watu walele na matusi kibao.Sasa tazama rais ndie anateua makadhi...na itafikia mahalia makafir watawachagualia kadhi wao. Cheza na majinn...hawawapi amani wala uelewa kwani damu lazima iwe inamwagika vya kutosha.

Narudia ni kuwa mujibu wa maandiko na majidiliano ya Mohamed Said.
Kuna wanajamvi werevu wamesema hapa AA ilianzishwa na akina Matola kama Rais wake, Ramadhani Ali(kama sikosei) makamu na K.Sykes kama katibu. Ilikuwa ni kundi na si mtu. Wakaendelea kuhabarisha kuhusu D.Cameron alivyokuwa " anaunga'' mkono jitihada za kisiasa na hadi kutoa Jengo.
Jengo hilo likafanyiwa maarifa na wazee na vijana wa mjini nakugeuzwa kuwa mali ya familia.
Ingekuwa zama hizi tungesema ufisadi lakini nyakati hizo neno hilo lilikuwa halija wekwa katika mafaili au maandishi na tuseme ilikuwa sehemu ya matendo ya kisiasa.
Hapo kati kati wakawepo akina Mtamilwa na kuna nyakati V.Kyaruzi alikuwa rais wa TAA lakini haisemwi.
Huyu hakuwa sehemu ya wazee na ushiriki wake una walalkini. Anyway, tuendelee na Abdul, huyu kakiongoza chama hadi alipomuachia Nyerere kwa uchaguzi mkali sana ambao ulipangwa matokeo kabla.
Tafadhali usiniulize mkali halafu kupangwa maana yake ni nini.
Kuanzia AA hadi TAA ya Abdul chama kilikuwa cha kisiasa kwa matendo hadi Nyerere alipoandika katiba na kuanza kukidhoofisha. Nyerere ndiye alipendekeza chama kibadili mwelekeo lakini tayari chama kilikuwa na brain child kutoka Burma ambaye alishafikiria siku nyingi sana uhusu hilo kwa matendo na si nyaraka au faili.
Sijui kama nimekidhi haja na matarajio, naoba uniwie radhi kama kuna sehemu yenye mapungufu! huenda nilifyonza vibaya
Spike Lee,
Dome Okochi Budohi kadi yake ya TANU na. 5.
Huyu alikuwa Mluya kutoka Kenya.
Sasa jiulize vipi Ally Sykes amuandikie kadi ile?
Huyu alikuwa kiungo kati ya akina Kenyatta na
Abdu Sykes 1950.
Budohi alikamatwa 1955 na kurudishwa Kenya kama
Mau Mau na akafungwa Lamu.
History hii unamuuliza huyo ataijuaje?
Spike nitayarishie juice atalipa Shariff Ritz In Sha Allah
nitakuwekea mziki mzima wa Budohi.
Nimepiganae picha ipo kwenye kitabu nyumbani kwake
Ruiru Nairobi na hilo tweed coat nilovaa kaninunulia yeye.
Ilikuwa 1972.
Nilifyonza mengi kutoka kwake.
Huu ni mtindo wako wa kukwepa hoja nzito.Wanajamvi, Shariff Ritz,
Anataka kuinusuru historia jamvini...
Naja na buku jingine...
''Broken Dreams...''
Madrassa...
Leo hata shimo linalofyonza maji machafu limepata sauti. Patamu hapo!umekuwa mpole mpaka huruma teh teh teh teh.
Kwani unapooga huwa huwafanyi hivyo?Yericko,
Bora nikakuoga.
Si unajua sisi huwa tuna kazi nyingine na maji achilia mbali kuoga.
Sidhani kama utafurahi kama wewe ukiwa maji nitakufanya hivyo.
Uongo Mwingine huu hapa,
TANU ianzishwe mwezi wa saba mwaka 1954,
Kisha 1955 japo haitajwi mwezi gani,Dome Okochi Budohi akamatwe nakurudishwa kwao Lamu Kenya nakufungwa jela!
Kumbukeni wanajamvi, mashirikiano ya karibu kati ya TANU na KANU ya Jomo Kenyatta yalianza mwaka 1958 baada ya ule uchaguzi wa kura tatu pale Tabora
Baada ya uchaguzi ule wajumbe wa TANU wakiongozwa na Julius Nyerere na Bibi Titi walikwenda Nairobi kushinikiza kuachiwa kwa Kenyatta,
Sasa jiulize Dome Okochi Budohi alishiriki vipi akiwa jela zaidi ya miaka 5 nyuma?
Wanajamvi chambueni wenyewe!

Halfu wakampa kadi ya TANU?
Yericko,
Ungekuwa unachukua muda wa kufanya utafiti hata kiduchu kabla ya kuandika.
Wanajamvi chambueni wenyewe.
Huyu mtoto anachekesha sana ni Launcelot Gobbo wa JF.
Yericko,
Hebu nisome kwanza hapa chini:
[TABLE="class: MsoNormalTable"]
[TR]
[TD] My family was acquainted with one Dome Budohi, a Kenyan nationalist who was in Dar es Salaam during the struggle. Budohi helped in the founding of TANU and his membership card was no.6 issued to him in July, 1954. He was arrested in 1955 by the colonial government on charges of being a member of Mau Mau, a peasant uprising in Kenya against the British.
I have many recollections of visiting Budohi in his cell at the Central Police Station building which now houses the headquarters of the Tanzania Railway Corporation (TRC). I was at that time a child of not more than four years old. My first recollection of Budohi was that whenever we went to visit him we always found him reading a newspaper. Budohi was later deported to Kenya and detained on Lamu Island. On being released from detention just before Kenyas independence in 1963, Budohi went to Uganda and worked with The Uganda Argus. I now understand why I always found him immersed in newspapers whenever we went to visit him in his cell during his period in remand in Dar es Salaam.[/TD]
[/TR]
[TR]
[TD="width: 601"] I was able, through the assistance of one Maxwell, probably a Luo and an old friend of his who remained in Tanganyika, to trace Budohi in Nairobi in 1972. I visited him in Nairobi. At that time he was staying at Ruiru a few miles from the city. Budohi had a portrait of Nat King Cole hanging in his sitting room. In 1974 I visited him again this time at his Ngei Estate house. Budohi became my primary source of information on the early history of Tanganyikas struggle against the British. At that time, however, I had no intention of writing a book.
Yericko,
Soma tena na hapa chini:
There were also patriots from nearby Kenya such as Dome Okochi Budohi and Patrick Aoko who had been exposed to the problems of colonial settler politics of grabbing land from the people. From them, Abdulwahid received very attentive ears and admiration for his ideas of transforming TAA into a more robust political organisation. Soon after the formation of TANU the two Kenyan nationalists were arrested by the government. For six months they were interrogated and kept in remand at the Central Police Station chained in their cells.
Yericko,
Hapa napenda kukufahamisha kuwa Dome Budohi akifahamiana vyema na baba yako Mwalimu Julius Kambarage Nyerere. Soma hapa chini wapi walikutana:
[TABLE="class: MsoNormalTable"]
[TR]
[TD] In June, TAA headquarters announced its executive committee with J.K. Nyerere, President; Abdulwahid Sykes, Vice-President; J.P. Kasella Bantu, General Secretary; Alexander M. Tobias and Waziri Dossa Aziz, Joint Minuting Secretary; John Rupia, Treasurer and Ally K. Sykes as Assistant Treasurer. Committee members were Dr Michael Lugazia, Hamisi Diwani, Tewa Said, Denis Phombeah, Z. James, Dome Okochi, C. Ongalo and Patrick Aoko.[1]
The composition of the TAA leadership showed East African solidarity that existed during the struggle for independence. Kenyan patriots were elected as office bearers side by side with Tanganyikans. It is said that it was about that time, in the last months of 1953, that Abdulwahid talked to Nyerere seriously about forming an open political party to replace TAA.
Yericko,
Bado una hoja bado mie ni muongo?[/TD]

Nimecheka sana wewe ndiyo unasema kijana peke ambaye unaijua historia ya Tanganyika kuliko vijana wengine, masikini mpaka unatia huruma hujui chochote kuhusu Dome Okochi Budohi? Ngoja nikupe darsa kidogo.
Mahusiano ya Tanganyika na Kenya wala hayakuanza mwaka 1958 kama unavyodanganya wala hayakuanza na TANU, jitihada za kuunganisha nguvu zimeanza 1950 TAA na KAU, mwaka huo Adulwahid Sykes alisafiri kwenda kukutana na Jomo Kenyatta ili kuanzisha uhusiano na Kenya wakati huo Nyerere hayupo tena walitumia nafasi ya kombe la Gossage.
Hauwezi kusema unaijua historia ya TANU halafu hujui habari za Dome Okochi Budohi na Patrick Aoko, kwa kukusaidia tu Budohi aliwahi kucheza sinema ya kiswahili na Kawawa iliyoitwa "Mgeni Mwema" huyu jamaa alifika mpaka Handeni.
Wanajamvi wakati AA na TAA ikiwa under serious scrutiny nawarudisha kwenye Mapinduzi ya Zanzibar kidogo.
Wickama, Hebu pumzika na hii: We have seen many times that the question of Zanzibar revolution is associated with
"Arab slave trade."The origin of this paradigm stems from not knowing the actual source of the revolution.
The most telling problem was to perceive that the revolution in Zanzibar had to take
place because of the oppressive regime of the Zanzibaris of Arab descent.
It was not necessary that the invasion of Zanzibar should take place. It was a special plot by one country invading another and hiding that hideous fact which gave Zanzibar sleepless nights for forty nine years.Wickama,Nimeacha kutoa source kwa makusudi.Ntawaomba wanajamvi mnistahamilie kwa hilo katika maelezo yangu yote kuhusu Zanzibar.Ikiwa kitabu nitawaeleza In Sha Allah.
Mohamed Said,
Kila siku nakuambia mzee wangu huyu kijana hana alijualo kuhusu historia ya Tanganyika eti na yeye anawasomesha wanaukumbi anawambia uongo mwingine huu, ha haa haaa JF kuna vituko.
Shariff Ritz,
Hawa jamaa tumewachukua kama abiria wetu katika safari ambayo
hawakuwahi hata kuiwaza.
Nchi tuliyowafikisha hawajawahi kufika hata siku moja.
Ndiyo maana wamepigwa na butwaa kuu.
Ukiwatajia Budohi kisha ukamuunganisha na TANU na Nyerere kwao ni maajabu.
Historia waliyosoma wao haina mambo haya.
Historia yao ni hii ya Nyerere mwanzo.
Historia yao ni ile ya Nyerere mwisho.
Wanajamvi wakati AA na TAA ikiwa under serious scrutiny nawarudisha kwenye Mapinduzi ya Zanzibar kidogo.
Mnakumbuka Mohamed Said alileta vipande viwili na kimoja ni hicho hapo juu kama majibu japo hayakuwa majibu.
Wickam aliomba reference na haraka Mohamed akaomba radhi kuwa hawaweza kutoa hizo reference.
Ikumbukwe kuwa suala la Kipumbwi si geni na amelishaliandikia na kuslisema sana huko nyuma. Kwahiyoo excuse ya kuwa source ni siri ima kwa kuzuia uandishi unaoendelea kama upo au kumkinga mtu si kweli na haina mashiko.
Nimeleta vkpengele hivyo kwasababu ukisoma kwa makini sana hiyo ni 'self quote' na hakuna mahali Mohamed amenukuu. Ni kawaida ya yeye kuji-quote na kusema ni reference. Narudia tena hiyo ni "self-quote''
Soma nukuu nambari moja between he lines kuna kitu kipo hapo ambacho kinaonyesha maandiko aliyonukuu si siku nyingi, pengine ni ya jana.
Natoa changamoto kwa Mohamed Said kufanya haya
Asitaje jina la mtu wala makala, kitabu, gazeti au paper na asitaje title.
Na wala asitaje mwaka, tunamuomba atoe muda (range) kwamba maneno hayo yalisemwa kati ya (mfano 1976-1986) basi
Kinyume chake iliombe radhi jamvi!
Shariff,
Yericko ni mtu muhimu sana kwetu.
Kama si yeye wapi mie ningepata nafasi ya kushuka na huo mpini wa Budohi?
Ninabaki kuwa mimi ni maji kwako, huwezi kunikwepa,
Mimi ni pumzi kwako ya uzima na haki, huwezi kukaa saa moja bila kuja jf kuniona!
Nimekuhamishia makazi jf bila kutaka!
Na zaidi nimeisimamisha ngano yako na kuichanachana kabisa!
Nimeruhusu fikra mpya magwiji wa historia wamekuhukumu mchana kweupe kabisa!
Kwamara yakwanza katika historia ya wanahistoria umekuwa mtu wa kwanza unaejiita mwanahistoria kuchambuliwa na kubezwa juu ya tungo zako kwanjia ya majukwaa huru ya mitandao ya kijamii na "ukakiri" wazi na kulialia mbele ya umma!
Katika hilo tu umevunja rekodi ya dunia, hakuina mwandishi wa vitabu aliyewahi kubanwa na mitandao ya kijamii na akalia mbele ya hadhila kama wewe!
Wengi hujibia hoja kwanjia hadhila za jumuiya za kisomi!
Lakini sisi tumekumwaga uswahilini tu na tukakuchangua changua na kukuvua nguo hadharani!
Pole sana hukutegemea yaliyokukuta!
Ulidhani hapa ni Ibadan ulipotapika sumu bila watu kukuhoji sababu za matapishi hayo!
