We have always been long on applauding both the effort and intent but short in appraising the effectiveness of drastic measures declared and vigorously pursued by our post colonial administrations.

Nyerere was lauded for Azimio la Arusha but he later admitted the policy tools and directions were faulty, and economic decimation was all too much of an eyesore to all of us. The legacy of Nyerere administration will always be soiled by sheer levels of economic mismanagements despite genuine efforts to address causes and effects of our underdevelopment.

Mwinyi administration was accorded a red carpet reverence for the frantic effort to undo "Nyerereism" via the antithesis of the Zanzibar declaration but we all know better the indigenization of our economy took a back seat as the economy was placed in grubby hands of aliens.

Mkapa administration cemented official graft while its successive administration of Jakaya Kikwete approved it in all its pernicious forms.

Then comes Magufuli administration while a couple of weeks in office seems lacking ideas of how to reform the government, and has so far been generating plenty of heat but very little substance.

Sweeteners may taste good on mouth but in the stomach are likely to foment gastric juice notorious for corroding the intestines. What this nation needs is reforms on good governance where accountability has been sacrificed at the altar of nepotism and sycophancy.

We need to restore pre-independence accountability if we are to reach where a president has no business to snatch duties and responsibilities of his juniors but to oversee them.

For start, he needs to acknowledge NEC ought to be fully investigated by an impartial commission how it conducted this election despite its numerous vain claims that the election was free, fair and transparent. We need a legislation to empower that commission but we also need the same commission to investigate thoroughly how this very partisan police interfered with the electoral process. We cannot face another election where UKAWA are adamant they were shortchanged and we have a president who may or may not be a squatter at our IKULU pretending to bribe us with "peremende" and expect for a different result.

On government splurge, we need concrete policies and pieces of legislation like capping staff emoluments based on a ratio of recurrent expenditure. What I have seen; so far, is a battle of nomenclatures which past administrations fought with equal zeal but lost because they never identified policy tools to do it.

The heading of this article is inviting,but the writer has gone out of his perceived idea.Lets give our Honorable President time to implement his plans .The president is still in Transition period,working on the handover notes at his desk (from his predecessor)an at the same time implementing his Government short and long term plans.The Interior design of any Building needs a a professional Architect ,and I believe Its him.The 20 years he has been in Government corridors, puts him in a right position to act so. Mzee Ally Hassan Mwinyi(the 2nd Phase president,now retired) said 'kila zama na kitabu chake".The past Governments(phase 1-3) promulgated many useful working instruments ,including mining policies,administrative policies an other regulatory policies.Some of these have yielded Good results,some had negative impact an some are in the course of implementation.With time the car will be on the right course ,let the alarm be raised at an op-tune time.
lastly I request the writer to come out again and elaborate where the" administration misses the point"Kitabu cha zama hii kitakuwa ndo kimeanza kutengenezwa.

What a contradiction! On one hand you aver the author has veered away from the topic imputing the titular and content are uncorrelated but you ferociously excoriated the contents confirming beyond a shred of doubt your beef is highly misconceived!

But despite the glaring equivocation you still get the accolades for attempting.

Sometimes, the hit and misses method that misses more than it hits is not intolerable, at all.
 
A one showboater may probably snatch a slim majority in 2020 as a result of the ongoing circus but unless he backslides as he excelled in Muhongo mischief and embrace constitutional reengineering he may end up being the most prodigal president in our history
