We should also dare not to forget the fact that the British politically and economically favoured the Arab minority (the second largest ruling minority in Africa after South Africa's whites)And during their departure placing the Sultan and his Arab government in power at independence!
However...under the articles of union both countries retained a degree of sovereignty with their own Presidents, governments and responsibility for specified domestic affairs.
Other areas such as foreign affairs, defense and security became union subjects. Nyerere was elected as President of Tanzania, Karume the First Vice-President and Kawawa the Second Vice-President..In order to deal with the foreign affairs,defense and security... In February 1977, TANU and the ASP merged to form the Chama Cha Mapinduzi (Revolutionary Party) with Nyerere as its chairman.
The question remaining is if they were actually able to solve the latter..that we used to relly on the ruling party "CCM" to make our union stronger and to determine its future!
Are we then looking for other ways to make sure our union stays stronger?
Is it the clash of parties or the ideas as to whether we should keep our union or not?
KWANINI UNAFIKIRI MASUALA KAMA YA MUUNGANO AMBAO NI SUALA LA KITAIFA LIKAENDA KUJADILIWA HUKO BUTIAMA KAMA VILE NI SUALA LA KICHAMA?JE WALIENDA KUMMULIZA MWL KABURINI?
