I appreciate that you are good writer,but here i have seen lots of contradictions.Well, the reality is those who go to india and Europe are the first to get the little cut...as the place is so remote unless you are dealing with transport operators or a nearby inhabitant .The rich and the powerful elite where among the first to get the cup.
THE CUP OF LOLIONDO: WHEN FAITH MEETS NEEDS!
THE PLIGHT OF A DESPERATE NATION AND A CATEGORICAL INDICTMENT OF THE FAILED HEALTH POLICIES OF THE CORRUPT RULING ELITE(CCM)

It is for this reason what is happening in Loliondo in fact is another categorical indictment of the failed health policies of the ruling party -Chama cha Mapinduzi. The current ruling elite has created and sustains a health system where the very powerful and wealth people can easily get world class health services in Europe and India while the poor majority continue to suffer at the mercy of a struggling health system. The President for example, ministers, members of parliament and other top level government officials have created for themselves a system where the tax payers will foot their health care bills for annual medical checkups and treatments in Europe and India's best hospitals while the poor majority of Tanzania only need such services when are in dire conditions. Such is the plight of these people who come to see Babu to get the cup of Loliondo.

..my friend your contradictions within the articles and inconsistent is against logic..then how can you judge logic in an illogical way....you use poverty and ignorance..but the riches are there...you attack faith yet ,if you are squeezed somewhere you come to realize that you also live in faith of one way or another..You trust lots of things but none of them you have a guarantee on.That is "..faith..".You have lots of example by your self.

I would propose that the poor majority of Tanzania are left with such an attitude as that of the Psalmist when he cries as if in pain and misery of the heart "I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come?" and he confidently answer with an assurance of a person filled with an absolute faith in Providence (not in men) and he says "My help comes from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth." Yea indeed! the maker of the Mugaruga plant! This my friends does not make any sense, it defies logic and any known scientific proposition. This faith in something greater than ourselves has a way of sustaining a people in ways that only the afflicted understand.

While to others faith is very irrational - In fact it is, to others there is nothing more rational than getting healing from any source of healing available to humanity. Yes even divine healing - whatever that is. It is here then, through the cup of Loliondo where faith of the people meets the needs of the desperate people. As most of us are still contemplating if we too need to make the journey here. May be we are not yet at the threshold of desperation but as history is the witness when we get to the precipice of own mortality we too will see the rationality of going to see Babu!
Only time will be the final arbiter on what is happening here.
So they come, in their hundreds; no in their thousands!
