Anti-corruption: Timi Frank urges Buhari to learn from Tanzanian president

A former deputy national publicity secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Timi Frank, has said advised Muhammadu Buhari to take a cue from his Tanzanian counterpart, John Magufuli, in the fight against corruption.
Magufuli who has been the head of the Tanzanian government since 2015, kick-started his government by imposing measures to curb government spending by barring unnecessary foreign travel by government officials, using cheaper vehicles and board rooms for transport and meetings respectively.
He also shrinked the delegation for a tour of the Commonwealth from 50 people to 4, dropping its sponsorship of a World AIDS Day exhibition in favour of purchasing AIDS med*cation, and discouraging lavish events and parties by public institutions. The Tanzanian president also reduced his own salary from US$15,000 to US$4,000 per-month
Comrade Frank called on President Buhari to emulate the Tanzanian government, opining that the federal government's fight against corruption, “is fake and largely a failure.”
Speaking during a recent anti-corruption summit, President Buhari said: “The outcome of the interaction, among others, shall serve as the basis for a more concerted effort by this administration to close existing legislative loopholes, facilitate collaboration with the judiciary and strengthen the criminal justice system, enforce effective asset declaration by public office holders, ensure sanctions by professional bodies against lawyers, bankers, brokers, public officials, and other individuals facilitating corrupt practices and ensure comprehensive support and protection to whistle-blowers, witnesses and victims of corruption.”
Reacting to the president's comments through a statement on Wednesday, June 12, Comrade Frank said the APC administration was only fighting corruption on the pages of newspapers.
Comrade Frank urged the federal government to allow the courts to do their work and determine who is corrupt in the country.
“It is corruption and impunity when some of your former cabinet members who were suppose to be in jail by now are walking free in the street,” he added.
He said the current institutions established to fight corruption have been politicised and only been used against Nigerians perceived to be against the APC administration.
Meanwhile, some anti-corruption groups in the country have filed a suit against the payment of over N4.68 billion as ‘welcome package’ to the incoming members of the 9th National Assembly.
In the suit filed at the Federal High Court, Lagos at the weekend, the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP), BudgIT and Enough is Enough Nigeria (EiE), are asking the court to restrain, prevent and stop the National Assembly Service Commission from paying individually and/or collectively, the ‘welcome package.’
The defendants in the suit are the Senate president, Speaker of the House of Representatives, National Assembly Service Commission and the Revenue Mobilisation, Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC).

Ni habari kuhusu maoni ya mtu mmoja ambaye bila shaka yoyote upeo wake ni mdogo sana kiasi cha kutojua nini maana ya kupambana na rushwa na mambo yanayoendelea Tanzania. Msahafu wa nchi hii wa kupambana na rushwa ni Taarifa ya Tume ya Kero ya Rushwa (aka Tume ya Warioba). Tangu hiki kinachoitwa vita dhidi ya rushwa kuanza 2015 hakuna kiongozi yoyote amepata kuzungumzia hiyo taarifa. Wala rushwa pekee wanaokamatwa siku hizi ni wale ambao viongozi wa kisiasa ama wameagiza au wametoa idhini wakamatwe. TAKUKURU imekuwa mbwa asiyekuwa na meno!

Kama wapinzani wananunulika basi hawafai kuongoza nchi hii. Hizyo ruzuku ya Chadema inajenga wapi maana hata jengo moja la ofisi ya mfano halipo

Nawe ni wa hivyo hivyo. CCM haijawahi jenga jengo lolote. Majengo waliyonayo yote ni mali ya serikali ya chama kimoja enzi za Nyerere. Kuna mwaka , 1000 yrs to come yatarudi kwa wananchi.
Kununuliwani njaa kama ya Kabudi anayejiita jalala ili apate mkate wake! Actually walio CCM wote ni wa kununuliwa. Mtu asiye wa kununuliwa angelikuwa ameshatoka CCM kwa inavyoendesha nchi. Lakini njaa zimewalegeza

Tulia nikusaidie, majengo ya CCM si mali ya Serikali kama mnavyodanganywa. Wakati ule wa chama kimoja cha siasa ilikuwa ni lazima kuwa mwanachama wa CCM baada ya kutimiza umri wa miaka 18 kulingana na matakwa ya kikatiba wakati huo na majengo,mashule na viwanja vilijengwa na wana-CCM na umiliki ukawa ni wa CCM na siyo Serikali ya wakati huo. Nikusaidie tu leo wewe mwana Chadema,ukishiriki kujenga jengo la Chadema kama mwanachama hata siku ukitoka Chadema ukanunuliwa na CCM kama mnavyojinasibisha,hutokuwa na haki kisheria kudai chochote maana jengo hilo ni mali ya chama na kutoka kwako si kigezo cha kudai mgao, upo wewe BAVICHA?

You must be crazy, una miaka mingapi wee? Elimu yako? Fani yako? tafuta wanasheria uwaulize
 
Timi Frank must be living on another planet with all these social media platform to check on what he claims is going on in Tanzania.

For example ,claiming that Tanzanian government is using cheaper motor vehicles, that is a big lie to fellow Nigerians. Every senior govt official in Tanzania are using V8 four wheels gas guzzling Japanese vehicles, costing tax payers vast amount of their hard earned money.

Abstaining from international conferences Tanzania now is an isolated country with no influence in attracting potential foreign investors who are using those meetings to know more about business environment in Tanzania.

After four years of self isolation Tanzania now has to work much harder to gain the confidence of international community and we have seen the recent long trip of the president accompanied by a contigent of government officials covering four countries in southern Africa to seek markets and lobbying international community to ceased economic sanctions against Zimbabwe.
