WC,
Hivi ndivyo kupiga vita udini?:
Sivalon has revealed that the Church has been able to create its own lobby which controls 75% of the seats in the parliament. Among these seats 70% are held by Catholics and the rest are divided among Muslims and Christian denominations.
The second book is by Dr John C. Sivalon, who in his expose,
Kanisa Katoliki na Siasa ya Tanzania Bara 1953 Hadi 1985, [1] unmasks a conspiracy in the government to subvert Islam.
Sivalon revealed that the Catholic Church as far back as 1961 was worried by two prospects.
First, was the unity between the Muslim
madhheb (sect) of Sunni, Bohora, Ismailia and Ithnasheri in Tanganyika; and the second, was the transfer of the headquarters of the East African Muslim Welfare Society (EAMWS) from Mombasa to Dar es Salaam.
The Church was worried that the resources in the hands of rich Asian Muslim community in East Africa, coupled with the political power of African Muslims, particularly in Tanganyika, would endanger Christian interests in East Africa.
The Church therefore declared Islam as its enemy in the country and plotted to thwart its progress.[2]

Ukipenda naweza nikaongeza vitu zaidi jinsi Mwalimu alivyoupiga vita udini.
