Why Magufuli administration misses the point on Government splurge

[Rutashubanyuma]

We need to spell out all citizens of EAC EAC shall enjoy citizenship rights in the EAC

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

In past, we made serious mistakes to look at leaders of member states' welfare rather than the welfare of the citizens of member states

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

Unless Africa is united we stand no chance to unleash our human and natural resources to achieve our collective development objectives

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

African leadership has been more if a hindrance as they cling to colonial imposed boundaries to justify defending sovereignty

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

African leadership is for all purposes and intents is a neo colonial tool to suppress our development aspiration

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

Most African states are increasingly becoming police states to banish everything we aspire for

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

A deconstruction of sources of power of Afrucan despots necessary to weaponize ourselves with tools we need to destroy their political brawn or leverage

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

It's in political parties where African leadership draws most if its residual power

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

Political parties power hail from constitution

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

On surface they look we need them in their current setup

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

Well, we don't!

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

Political parties have become no more our liberator buy our imprisonment

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

We boast of multiparty democracy

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

But multiparty isn't about the people but those individuals entrusted to run those political parties

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

So a superficial multiparty democracy becomes party leaders' democracy

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

It's not an arrangement that augurs well with producing good leaders which is a staple of our development malaise

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

After expanding citizens rights to all members of EAC the second step is to demystify multiparty democracy

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

We need to reject multiparty democracy and embrace peoples democracy

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

We need to free ourselves from the colonial bondage of multiparty democracy

 

[Rutashubanyuma]

We say so because multiparty democracy has entrapped us to worship party leaders of whom if you brush their shoulders the wrong way they ostracize you unto a blackballed entity
