Why Magufuli administration misses the point on Government splurge

Public opinion is by mileages anti incumbents and instead of seeking goodwill of the electorate Lukuvi is running amock to burn whatever vestiges of restoration!

Squatters are victims of rampant corruption in the ministry he heads and burying his head under the sand dunes can only accelerate his downfall

The axe ought to fall on his head sooner than later

Illegal collection of land rents promotes anarchy

Any serious regime will well be advised if it lives within the boundary of the law

This regime is extravagant and proffers tax holiday to potentially big taxpayers

Targeting the Lilliputian at benefit of big taxpayers always enjoying tax exemptions will be punished in the next election

There are very good citizens who have been paying land rents without the regime giving them land ownership security and when that land is declared and reclaimed public land the same government is trigger happy to decree and declare no compensation will be paid on development on squatter lands,

Lukuvi is a JK holdout sleeping on his job and illegally taxing squatters ought to be his point of no return while sustaining him in the cabinet betrays everything this regime stands for or at least claiming to.

This government cannot have it both ways. Either MKURABITA is accounted for or the oral order on land rents at squatters is reversed as an overzealous minister gone berserk!
Actually, that will be musical to the ears of the much neglected urban poor

Good governance seems an endangered species with this regime long on unfulfilled promises but short on delivery

Another of pernicious side of Lukuvi recklessness is discrimination against the urban poor

Rural land is not targeted for obvious reasons that is where ccm picks most votes

The urban poor are being unfairly targeted because they are UKAWA sympathizers.

The regime reckons it hits two birds with one stone

Weakening the opposition by squeezing the last dime from their ardent base without considering it is a double edged sword

While Nyerere subsidized urban food supply chain to keep himself on power this regime is willing to risk urban unrest as it executes unconstitutional public policy which is in contempt with land laws and discriminatory against urban hoi polloi

Lukuvi's education remains a murky subject of intrigue and a fertile ground for conspiracy and speculation theorists.

But as he is abasing his own anaemic pedigree in this manner, his scholastic feats or lack of them will now assume new dimensions

Is he really a school dropout?

Land rents are guided by law and only those with right of occupancy are legally entitled to pay them as section 33 (1) of the Land Ordinance amply demonstrates!

And squatters are not by any stretch of imagination legally qualify as owners of right of occupancy!

Under section 33 (1) of the Land ordinance only those owners of right of occupancy are compelled to pay land rents.
