Labda turudi mwanzo. Link ya source ya Wikipedia uliyotoa haijadili tuu mabaya aliyofanya Nyerere. In deed, inamjadili Nyerere kuanzia mwanzo mpaka mwisho. Ulichofanya wewe umekopi paragraph moja tuu as if hiyo article inajadili mabaya ya Nyerere tuu. This is the paragraph you copied japokuwa tena kwa kukusudia ulisepa hapo kwenye nyekundu. Kwa sababu umesema kwenye thread nyingine unatumia the latest gadget na sio laptop, then sidhani hiyo gadget iliruka hiyo sentence yenye rangi nyekundu.
"Unfortunately for Nyerere and Tanzania, this ujamaa system caused agricultural output to plummet. The deficit in cereal grains was more than 1 million tons between 1974 and 1977. Only loans and grants from the World Bank and the IMF in 1975 prevented Tanzania from going bankrupt. By 1979, ujamaa villages contained 90% of the rural population but only produced 5% of the national agricultural output.[18]Subsequently, the country fell on hard economic times which was excacerbated by a war against Idi Amin and the six year drought. Tanzania went from the largest exporter of agricultural products in Africa to the largest importer of agricultural products."
Sasa ukiangalia kwenye hiyo paragraph uliyo-quote, mwandishi ametumia reference moja tuu (footnote 18). Mwandishi huyo kwenye footnote ni Meredith, Martin (2006).
The fate of Africa: from the hopes of freedom to the heart of despair : a history of fifty years of independence. Public Affairs. Sasa wewe unanimwagia list ya references za article nzima ya Wikipedia ambayo pia inaongelea the positive side ya Nyerere. Kwa maana, hiyo unatambua mazuri ya Nyerere yaliyoandikwa n hizo references ambazo hazihusiana hata kidogo na quotation yako hapo juu?
Lakini that is not my point kwa sababu kama ulivyosema unaniaminia kwa kusema nipo juu zaidi ya haya. Sasa ngoja nikupe haya ya juu. Kama unakumbuka huko nyuma kuna thread moja ya Nyerere ilianzishwa na Mwanakijiji, uka quote article moja iliyom-quote
Karl Maier, kwenye kitabu chake kilichokuwa published mwaka 1998 ambapo anadai Nyerere alisema: "
I failed. Let's admit it." Unakumbuka ile thread? Karl Maier naye alida ali-refer kwenye speech moja ya Nyerere. Tukaitafuta ile speech ya Nyerere, tukaiweka hapa, tukaisoma yote na hatukupata hiyo quotation ya Karl Maier aliyodai kuichukua kwenye hiyo speech ya Nyerere kuwa ali admit mwenyewe kuwa he was a failure. Kwa mana hiyo Karl Maier alikuwa anadanganya.
Sasa kwenye quataion yako ya leo ina-mrefer Meredith, Martin na kitabu chake ambacho possibly hujakisoma ujue kama kweli amesema hayo. Wewe umeanini tuu secondary source ya Wikipedia bila ku-very primary source i.e kitabu cha Meredith, Martin kama kweli amesema hayo. Ndio maana nilikupa yanayosemwa na Wikipedia juu ya Kikwete. Kama tunamni yaliyoandikwa na Wikipedia juu ya mabaya ya Nyerere, then tunaweza kuamini mabaya yaliyoandikwa na Wkipedia juu ya Kikwete pia hata ku-cross check references zilizotumika. Sitaki uumbuke kama ulivyoumbuka kwenye ile thread.
FF nasema usinchekeshe.
