Jasusi,
Mimi nielewavyo (and I stand to be corrected), Kassanga Tumbo alisimama kupingana na Mwalimu katika Uchaguzi Mkuu (1960 or 1961?) na akashindwa. Hicho ndicho kilimfanya Mwalimu amtokomezee Kasanga Tumbo Sumbawanga kwa miaka 10. Is that not so? I am not quite sure about this part of our History!
Abdallah Fundikira was also banished to the South for some time, by Mwalimu, or was he not? It was a time when Mwalimu was developing a GULAG mentality, and Sumbawaga seemed to be the perfect place for our very own Gulag.
Shed some light on these matters, if you can. I would particularly like to know whether anyone else was ever banished to Sumbawanga by Mwalimu.
Bila shaka ni sahihi kwamba Mwalimu aliokoa Maisha ya Babu. Mwalimu had a deep respect for life. He knew that the old sailor, Karume, would kill Babu if he was returned to Zanzibar. That, unfortunately, does not seem to have been enough to stop the same Mwalimu from handing Kassim Hanga over to sure death at the hands of Karume.
