Shamte, thus erroneously being referred to as 'specialist' in the Guardian report, has demonstrated a very high degree of naivety by agreeing, in the first place, to take up such a risky and incriminating assignment.

On the other hand, if TCRA claim that they had no means of identifying the culprit, then either they were an accomplice to this crime or they are simply a bunch of nincompoops who cannot do their job.

kuna mambo mawili matatu ninayoyaona/ kuyafikiria
1) napata imani kubwa kutoka kwa watu wa Usalama (UWT), nadhani wengi wao wapo against na hizi move (za JK na genge lake) na ndio maana siri nyingi zinafichuka, na pia inanipa moyo kuwa kwa hili (la MSg) hawajahusika, inaonekana JK ana link na top layerz tu ambao sio watendaji
2)kampuni ya simu ya VODACOM imevunja masharti ya kuwalinda na kuwaheshimu customerz wake, ni kitendo cha ajabu sana kwa kampuni inayotamba kimataifa kushiriki kwenye upuuzi kama huu, USHAURI WANGU NI KUWA HII KAMPUNI INAFAA KUSHTAKIWA NA PIA WATEJA WOTE WENYE MAPENZI MEMA NA NCHI YAO INAWAPASA KUJITOA KWENYE KAMPUNI HII (MAUHAJI YA RWANDA YALICHOCHEWA NA KUPATA KASI KUTOKANA NA VYOMBO VYA MAWASILIANO-RADIO), HIVYO NA VODA WALISHAFIKA HIYO POINT
3)Chadema inapaswa kukusanya ushahidi wote na kuwapeleka wote mahakamani

Editorial Cartoon


For the past few weeks, Tanzanians have witnessed some dramatic trends ahead of the October 31 general elections, ranging from a military warning of possible polls chaos to hateful text messages targeting the opposition presidential candidate, Dr Willibrod Slaa.
In a country where two different opinion polls have given a solid lead to the big brother, Chama Cha Mapinduzi, it is appalling to see this kind of senseless and dangerous campaign trickery being done by some political strategists.
While in the United States , Barack Obama used mobile phone technology to reach out to a huge number of voters and to raise millions of dollars for his presidential campaign in 2008, in Tanzania , the technology is now being used to target those considered to be a threat ahead of the election.
Perhaps, the worst thing is that some of the authors of these hate text messages are journalists turned political strategists, hoping to clinch political appointments after the election by showing their loyalty to the ruling party now.
We have very credible evidence that implicates key political strategists and Information Technology specialists in this deadly network of spreading inflammatory and hateful messages through the mobile phones.
What these scrupulous strategists don't understand, or have chosen to ignore, is that when Rwanda fell to the masters of genocide, it was the very same manipulation of media and technology that was applied to facilitate the killing of nearly 1 million innocent souls.
The Rwandan media prepared the so-called ten commandments directing the killers on how to identify the 'cockroaches', the name they gave to their enemies, mainly Tutsi and moderate Hutus.
The role of the Rwandan media can be compared with the 1946 Nuremberg trial of Nazi publisher Julius Streicher, who used films and cartoons to incite hatred of Jews and was executed for his role in the death of 6 million people.
By soaking their journalism in ethnic hatred, some Rwandan journalists turned their media into weapons of war, the court ruled.
Kangura, which means "wake up", published what it called the "Hutu 10 Commandments" inciting people to kill.
Among the testimonials of participants in the Rwanda genocide, Jean Hatzfeld states, "Killing is very discouraging if you must decide to do so yourself ... but if you are obeying orders from the authorities, if you are adequately conditioned, if you feel pushed and pulled, if you see that the carnage will have absolutely no adverse effects in the future, you feel comforted and revitalised. You do it without shame ... We envisaged this relief with no reluctance whatsoever ... we were efficiently conditioned by radio broadcasts and advice we heard."
Today in Tanzania, we have witnessed our own version of the ten commandments prepared mainly targeting Chadema's Dr. Slaa as well as Civic United Front's presidential candidate, Professor Ibrahim Lipumba.
After being written and edited, these hate text messages are then sent to millions of mobile phone subscribers countrywide using numbers believed to have been registered in Finland purposely for this propaganda.
The way this exercise is coordinated proves that it has been well planned, but the only things its authors and executors forget is that when peace vanishes all of us will suffer heavily.
With these incriminating, defaming messages, the authors might have succeeded in the short run, but in the long run these irresponsible and senseless campaign tricks can destroy our beloved country, which we have struggled to build during the past five decades.
At the end of the day, Tanzania should take precedent over political interests, because without a stable country, no party – no matter how big and rich it is – can operate successfully.
Our security agencies should at any cost and by all means arrest all the culprits behind these campaign tricks. These suspects as well as their sponsors are well known, and there's no need to entertain them by creating unnecessary bureaucracy under the umbrella of investigation.
Tanzania has been widely respected within and outside Africa as a peaceful nation that has continued to enjoy stability even after the introduction of the multiparty system in 1992. It's therefore shocking to witness what is going on as we approach the October 31 general elections.
Elections are seasonal matters that shall come to pass, but Tanzania is our daily life and bread that will always accommodate all of us come death or life. The best way to punish the leader you don't like is through the ballot box.
The self appointed political strategists operating this dirty campaign should be named, shamed and prosecuted before the court of law no matter how well connected they are.
Not only that but also the National Electoral Commission should condemn this insane move by some amateur strategists appointed by some political parties to organize and execute this deadly campaign trick.
Writing about the danger of violence in society, Indian politician Mohandas Gandhi put it this way, "I object to violence because when it appears to do good that good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent."
Robert Frost, an American philosopher once wrote, "The strongest and most effective force in guaranteeing the long-term maintenance of power is not violence in all the forms deployed by the dominant to control the dominated, but consent in all the forms in which the dominated acquiesce in their own domination."
As the security organs claims to be investigating the source of all these hateful text messages, we as the people should rise above the smear campaigns, the tribalism and the politics of division ahead of the polling date.
As a nation we have weathered many storms, achieved a lot and established a united society that can't be destroyed by a few perpetrators whose vision is to feed their angry stomachs at the expense of this country.
If there's any party that has employed these ‘mercenaries' or is aware of the plan, it should come out and denounce them strongly because their acts are detrimental to Tanzania.



SOURCE: GUARDIAN ON SUNDAY

 

[Jibaba Bonge]

The hateful text messages widely circulated throughout the country from mobile numbers registered in Finland were part of an election smear campaign carried out by a local IT specialist currently operating on the fifth floor of Barclays House, The Guardian on Sunday has learnt.


The revelation comes as Finnish and Tanzanian officials launched an investigation to nab the culprits behind the propaganda, which has targeted opposition candidates ahead of the October 31 general elections.

Earlier this week, while addressing the nation on the 11th anniversary of the death of Julius Nyerere, President Jakaya Kikwete described those spreading the hate messages as dangerous to the nation's peace and unity. President Kikwete said circulating defamatory messages was not the way to canvass for votes, as it could create more problems.

"I think this is becoming a serious problem... leadership cannot be gauged by obscenities or bad language against your rivals. This shows that Tanzanians have started to segregate one another," Kikwete said on Thursday this week.

Text messages sent from Finnish telephone numbers, targeting Chadema presidential candidate Willibrod Slaa, have been circulating since last week. The police, the Tanzania Communications Regulatory Authority and mobile phone providers are investigating the source of the messages to establish who is behind them.

But, according to details gathered by The Guardian on Sunday, including emails sent between October 5 and 10, this year, the IT specialist is one, Rashid Shamte, who has a very strong connection with senior IT specialists at two leading mobile companies.
Two weeks ago, Shamte received edited versions of the ten hateful messages plus the 'ten commandments' at his email address rashid.shamte@6telecoms.co.tz. In one of the email seen by this newspaper, the author says, "Brother, we have finished your assignment with my boy who seemed to be good in doing this job…I will call you shortly so that we see how to empower him financially." "As you may be aware this is a tough job that needs time and creativity" reads another one of the emails sent to rashid.shamte@6telecoms.co.tz on October 10, this year.

But, not all messages designed, authored and sent to Shamte's emails were hateful or incriminating. Majority of these emails were just strategies aimed at responding to various policy issues raised by Dr Slaa and Professor Lipumba.

The hateful text messages have predominately targeted Chadema presidential candidate Dr. Willibrod Slaa but have also been directed at Professor Ibrahim Lipumba.

The first crop of ten messages accused Dr. Slaa of being a dangerous man who shouldn't be trusted with the task of leading a nation like Tanzania. Some of these messages were circulated to millions of mobile phone subscribers two weeks ago, forcing Chadema to file an official complaint with law enforcers.

"When you wake up on the morning of October 31, remember to recite this prayer: Oh Father who art in heaven and earth, don't divide your people the way Chadema does; give us rights as the way those who come from Kilimanjaro give themselves; don't deny us opportunities because we are not the in-laws of Mzee Mtei, give us light to live longer, and don't take us hurriedly the way you took our hero Chacha Wangwe" reads one of these text messages

The text messages also depict Dr Slaa as a leader bent on winning the presidency at all costs, even if it would mean spilling blood. The texts were sent from two numbers, +358-8108226 and +358-8976578, both bearing the Finnish country code. One of the messages accuses Chadema of being a tribal party dominated by Chagga people who receive their orders from former Central Bank governor Edwin Mtei. Mtei is among the founders of Chadema party, which was officially registered in July 1992.

The second round of text messages contained the so-called 'Ten Commandments', in which nine out of these are directed at Dr Slaa, and one is dedicated to Professor Lipumba of Civic United Front.

Although none of these messages attacked the ruling party or its candidates, there is still no credible evidence directly connecting CCM with the author of these damaging messages. According to details obtained by this newspaper, the 'Ten Commandments' were meant to be circulated the day before the election.

In one of the commandments, the author says, "Don't follow Dr Slaa; he is a womanizer who commits adultery with married women and then dumps them." Based on the emails sent to rashid.shamte@6telecoms.co.tz, Shamte seems to have been the distributor of the texts, using his IT expertise and connections with telecoms specialists to distribute the texts to millions of mobile phone users in Tanzania.

These emails also show that he has a very strong connection with one firm currently contracted by the ruling party to deal with its online communications through blogs and websites. The firm also has its office at Barclays House fifth floor, Ohio street, according to details gathered by The Guardian on Sunday.

All of Shamte's emails bear the signature of a Blackberry, showing that he usually uses his mobile phones to communicate with his partners in this smear campaign.

The Guardian on Sunday has reliably established that Shamte has also acted as a media analyst, giving his assessment of how the media has covered the top three presidential candidates since the campaign started.

Contacted yesterday through his mobile number, Shamte would not discuss the issue, and when asked to confirm that email address rashid.shamte@6telecoms.co.tz was his, he responded by asking how our reporter got his mobile number.
"If you can please tell me who gave you my telephone number," requested Shamte yesterday evening when contacted through his cellular phone number.
The Guardian on Sunday's reporter responded: "As we are always in search of credible information, we take every trouble to get to our sources of information, and today you stand as one of our credible sources," asking him to confirm whether the email address actually belonged to him. But instead, he chose to hang off.

The police have yet to apprehend any suspects connected to these defamatory and incriminating text messages, while the Tanzania Communication Regulatory Authority has also failed to identify the owner of the mobile number.

However what puzzles many people is how the author of these messages managed to access the database of various mobile phone operators in order to reach millions of people countrywide directly.

Under normal circumstances, no mobile handset can store that volume of contacts, but the mysterious author managed to jam over 5 million users within 48 hours, causing panic and outrage among opposition supporters.

Although none of the messages advised for the masses to take any action against the opposition, the rhetoric used was reminiscent of the genocidal propaganda spread in the run-up to the 1994 massacre in Rwanda.

At that time, there was another popular 'Ten Commandments' that was circulated by Hutu extremists in the few days before the genocide, when radio and newspapers were used to incite hate against the Tutsi minority. What followed was the murder of about 1 million Tutsi and moderate Hutus in a genocide that shocked the world.

[UmkhontoweSizwe]

It doesn't make sense how the Guardian could go to the point of mentioning someone involved while our "walinda usalama" saying they haven't netted anybody, or even knowing the source! Yaani the Guardian wanafanya kazi kwa ufanisi zaidi kuliko wanausalama wetu?
Nyie polisi, UWT, na wanausalama wote mnajishushia sana. Kazi yenu itazidiwaje ufanisi na the guardian? Kama hali ndo hii, hivi tunalindwa kweli? Inanipa mashaka kuamini kama hamkuhusika!!

 

[Rugemeleza]

Ninashukuru kwa uchunguzi huu uliowezesha kupatikana kwa huyo mtuhumiwa. Kwa muda mrefu CCM na viongozi wake wamekuwa wakitumia mbinu ya kuwajenga hofu Watanzania kuwa wakiwachagua wapinzani kutatokea machafuko na vita katika nchi yetu. Eti wapinzani wataleta udini, ukabila na kila kitu kibaya. Hoja hizi ni mufilisi na ni za watu wasiona uwezo wa kufikiria au wale ambao wanawaona Watanzania kuwa ni mbumbumbu mzungu wa reli. Hoja hizi tulizipinga sana wakati wa mjadala wa kubadilisha mfumo wa chama kimoja. Mimi nilikuwa mzungumzaji wa kwanza pale Tume ya Jaji Nyalali ilipokuja Chuo Kikuu Mlimani tarehe 6 Novemba 1991. Tulitoa hoja kali sana bila woga na licha ya kuw ndio tulikuwa tumerudi chuoni baada ya kukaa nyumbani kwa mwaka mmoja kutokana na Mwinyi kuturudisha huko ati tulimtukana matusi ya nguoni!


Mwaka 1995 Mrema alipogombea hoja hiyo ya ukabila ikaletwa tena kwa bahati mbaya ITV siku chache kabla ya uchaguzi ikarusha mkanda wa kuonyesha mauaji ya Rwanda hiyo ikaleta hofu kwa baadhi ya watu. Kiukweli Mrema alifanya vizuri lakini wizi wa kura ulikuwa mkubwa sana. Dar es Salaam matokeo yake yalifutwa kwani hali ilionyesha kuwa CCM ilikuwa imeshindwa katika majimbo yote. Ajabu yake mikoani watu waliendelea kupiga kura hata kwa siku tatu. Huko ndiko kura zilikochakachuliwa. Suala la ukabila pia likajitokeza mwaka 1996 pale Mrema alipogombea ubunge wa Temeke. Wakati Mrema anasakamwa na Uchaga, CUF wakasakamwa na Uislamu. Waliyoyanzisha na kuyasema yote hayo ni nani? Jibu ni rahisi ni CCM.

Tabia ya kuyapiga vita makabila fulani nchini mwetu ipo na yanayoandamwa sana ni Wahaya, Wachaga, Wasukuma. Kwa Wasukuma Mzee Songambele alitueleza mimi na rafiki yangu (Wakili ambaye ni Msukuma) kuwa ulikuwa ni mpango wa serikali kuwadhibiti kutokana na wingi wao. Wahaya hiyo ilikuwa ni lazima kutokana unshomile wao. Wahaya kujikinga wakaacha kutumia majina ya Kihaya wakatumia majina ya kizungu ili waweze kuchaguliwa kwenda sekondari na kupata kazi. Licha ya hayo yote mimi sijawahi kuficha Uhaya wangu na ndiyo maana hata jina langu la kwanza linaonyesha wazi kuwa mimi ni mtu wa kabila gani. Kama unanichukia unichukie sio kwa uhaya wangu bali matendo na tabia yangu.

Lakini hoja ni nini? Kwani kuwa kabila fulani ni kosa? Kwani kuna Mtanzania yeyote yule aliyepiga kura kuzaliwa katika kabila fulani? Kwa hiyo hii ni hoja ya kipumbavu sana. Uhaya au Uchaga, Ukinga, Ungoni, Unyaturu na kadhalika haumfanyi mtu kutokuwa Mtanzania. Au kuwa Mtanzania mwenye sifa pungufu au wa kutiliwa mashaka. Watanzania ni mchanganyiko wa makabila zaidi ya 120 na kwa kweli kama tukiwa makini ni zaidi ya 130. Mimi ni mwanamazingira, licha ya uwakili wangu, ule utofauti na uanuwai wetu wa kimakabila, kimila, kitamaduni na kidini si udhaifu wetu bali ndivyo nguvu na utajiri wetu.Lakini watu wapumbavu wachache wamekuwa wakiutumia kutugawa na kubagua watu fulani au dini fulani. Wamekuwa wakifanya hivyo ili kutekeleza matakwa yao ya kutaka kufaidika na mali za nchi yetu au kutuongoza na kupiga vita wale ambao wana sifa kubwa kushinda wao.

Mimi nimefanikiwa kutembea sehemu nyingi duniani na nimeona jinsi Waafrika kutoka katika nchi zote za bara letu tunavyoonekana kuwa viumbe dhaifu yote ni kutokana na umaskini wetu na jinsi tunavyoruhusu utajiri na maliasili zetu kuchukuliwa na wengine huku sisi tukichekelea kama mazuzu.Wazungu wanaamini kuwa kuna kitu kimepungua kwetu kwani kama si hivyo kwanini tunaendelea kutopea katika lindi la umaskini. Mbona Wachina, Wakorea, Malaysia na wengine wameweza kujitoa katika umaskini?

Hii ilinifanya nifikie tamati hii na nilimwambia Mengi pale Mahakama Kuu mwezi wa sita mwaka huu, kuwa haijalishi kuwa wewe kama Mwafrika umesoma kiasi gani au kuwa una mali kiasi gani, kwani heshima yako kama Mwafrika haiji kutokana na mafanikio yako binafsi bali kutokana na mafanikio ya Waafrika wenzako wengi. Hivyo basi hadi pale Mwafrika wa chini au kawaida atakapokuwa na maisha mazuri na kuishi maisha ya kati ndipo heshima ya Waafrika duniani itakapopanda na wale matajiri wetu watakapoweza nao kuhesabika. Hivi sasa mimi kapuku na Mengi tukipanda ndege na kuja huku Marekani na kutembea katika mji wowote huku Marekani au Ulaya tutaonekana kuwa ni watu wa kubangaiza tu.

Ndiyo maana ninasema kuwa siasa za kijinga za ukabila, udini, ukoo na uchifu kamwe hazitaweza kuinua hadhi ya Mwafrika duniani. Ninaunga mkono watu kuwa na makabila yao, kuzungumza lugha zao na kudumisha tamaduni zao lakini ninakazania sana kujenga utaifa na uafrika ili kuinua hadhi ya Mwafrika. Ndiyo maana ninawasihi ndugu zangu kuwa hatuna sababu ya kuogopa au kumdharau mtu kutokana na kabila au dini yake bali tuna kila sababu ya kumpinga mtu kwa matendo yake mabaya ambayo yanalenga kutuacha sisi na vizazi vijavyo katika lindi la umaskini. Hivyo ndugu zangu tusiwaogope hao watu wanaosambaza chuki za udini na ukabila bali siku zote tuchague viongozi wetu kwa sifa na matendo yao na si makabila au dini zao. Samahani sana kwa ujumbe mrefu.

 

[Azimio Jipya]

Ile speech ya Kikwete ya "kukemea" text za vitisho ilikuwa ni ya kinafiki tu (kwa maoni yangu).

No no Solomon ... Hakuwa anakemea .... Alikuwa anajua kinachoendelea na alikuwa anakitumia kujijenga...Pls angalia kwa makini maneno aliyotumia kwenye speach yake na kilichokuwa kinaendelea wakati huo huo!!

....Kikwete described those spreading the hate messages as dangerous to the nation's peace and unity. President Kikwete said circulating defamatory messages was not the way to canvass for votes, as it could create more problems.“I think this is becoming a serious problem... leadership cannot be gauged by obscenities or bad language against your rivals. This shows that Tanzanians have started to segregate one another,” Kikwete said on Thursday this week....

Alafu fuatilia mtandao mzima nyuma ya waliotuma ujumbe... Na kilichokuwa kinaendelea..!!

You do it without shame ... We envisaged this relief with no reluctance whatsoever ... we were efficiently conditioned by radio broadcasts and advice we heard."
Today in Tanzania, we have witnessed our own version of the ten commandments prepared mainly targeting Chadema's Dr. Slaa as well as Civic United Front's presidential candidate, Professor Ibrahim Lipumba.
After being written and edited, these hate text messages are then sent to millions of mobile phone subscribers countrywide using numbers believed to have been registered in Finland purposely for this propaganda.
The way this exercise is coordinated proves that it has been well planned, but the only things its authors and executors forget is that when peace vanishes all of us will suffer heavily.
With these incriminating, defaming messages, the authors might have succeeded in the short run, but in the long run these irresponsible and senseless campaign tricks can destroy our beloved country, which we have struggled to build during the past five decades.
At the end of the day, Tanzania should take precedent over political interests, because without a stable country, no party – no matter how big and rich it is – can operate successfully.
Our security agencies should at any cost and by all means arrest all the culprits behind these campaign tricks. These suspects as well as their sponsors are well known, and there's no need to entertain them by creating unnecessary bureaucracy under the umbrella of investigation.
Tanzania has been widely respected within and outside Africa as a peaceful nation that has continued to enjoy stability even after the introduction of the multiparty system in 1992. It's therefore shocking to witness what is going on as we approach the October 31 general elections.
Elections are seasonal matters that shall come to pass, but Tanzania is our daily life and bread that will always accommodate all of us come death or life. The best way to punish the leader you don't like is through the ballot box.
The self appointed political strategists operating this dirty campaign should be named, shamed and prosecuted before the court of law no matter how well connected they are.
Not only that but also the National Electoral Commission should condemn this insane move by some amateur strategists appointed by some political parties to organize and execute this deadly campaign trick.
Writing about the danger of violence in society, Indian politician Mohandas Gandhi put it this way, "I object to violence because when it appears to do good that good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent."
Robert Frost, an American philosopher once wrote, "The strongest and most effective force in guaranteeing the long-term maintenance of power is not violence in all the forms deployed by the dominant to control the dominated, but consent in all the forms in which the dominated acquiesce in their own domination."
As the security organs claims to be investigating the source of all these hateful text messages, we as the people should rise above the smear campaigns, the tribalism and the politics of division ahead of the polling date.
As a nation we have weathered many storms, achieved a lot and established a united society that can't be destroyed by a few perpetrators whose vision is to feed their angry stomachs at the expense of this country.
If there's any party that has employed these ‘mercenaries' or is aware of the plan, it should come out and denounce them strongly because their acts are detrimental to Tanzania.

The messages that support JK in ways that divide the nation tantamount to treason offense. This genocide planting messages require stern measure to curb. Apart from voting him out, JK must be prosecuted for planting seeds of hate. JK as presidential candidate is clearly breaching our constitutions. What kind of president seeks to get to power at any cost including spliting the nation for his individualist aspirations?
