For the first time in Arusha politics, ccm is smelling blood of victory....the real reason behind ccm new impetus is that Chadema has made some serious political miscalculations....underestimating the average voter's pertinent needs in Arusha Municipality.
here are some of Chadema's political gaffes..
1) Chadema think anti-ccm runs too deep that whatever chadema national leaders say voters will jump at it without expressing a desire for interactive dialogue...ccm via Lowassa did the same in 2010 parliamentary elections....and the disastrous electoral verdict is there for everyone to see...Arusha voters have the mind of their own too...that is lesson number one..
2) Arusha Municipality is a merchant city....growing on an environment of orderliness...the city can hardly endure Lema's political mischief for too long...with lema testing and stretching our limits of tolerance when he decided to stay behind bars and urging us to coalesce around him...that colossal stupidity had backfired before his eyes...for hardly a day even his fellow tribesmen of Chagga could hardly sustain the shuttle buses' strike for a day as the realities of astronomical cost of living in Arusha began to take its devastating toll....the lesson number two we vote for whoever we calculate will advance our personal causes and Chadema at the moment is misreading our collective political resolve....It is time we tell Lema, at the ballot box-of course, he does not own Arusha and never will...we sent him to legislate in the Augusta House not to be a rabble-rousing pedestrian or a belligerent demagogue....we have those losers among us in our streets but we do not send them to the House for that matter....
3) Learning from past by-elections voter turn out is hardly a third of the general election turnout...voter fatigue and apathy seems to be the in-thing favouring ccm in many ways...only ccm fanatical followers do turn-up and vote but Chadema ends up with huge non-voting attendances....which time and time again have proved futile in changing the course...of our political complexion.....lesson number three....expect only less than 40, 000 to turn up in the envisaged by-elections and ccm will snuff out most of the 3 to 4 Ward Councillors now up for grab....in a way that will be good pragmatism...Arusha demands orderliness to prosper and Chadema is not yet ready to provide her with that bubbling quest....at the moment permits for development projects have all but come to a standstill...the real reason is Chadema's refusal to listen to an average voter's needs....that unless municipal Council continues to work in orderly manner....jobs will not be created particularly in the construction industry....and the Arusha economy decimated by low yields in agricultural, tourism and mining sectors can hardly afford....anymore disruptions unless of-course we are stupidly determined to fail as a society....
4) After Chadema have been routed at the ballot box despite attracting huge public rallies: and, may be those at the national level will begin earnestly to ask us the BIG QUESTION....what are our aspirations...I am not alone when I say since I can not vote for ccm with a clean conscience; for then, by abstaining in the incoming by elections is my best communicative means of punishing both ccm and Chadema for just one tantrum....behaving like Siamese twins......
that is how I feel what about you?
so roho inakuhuma nini kama hao Wachagga wanakubalika na wewe si ugombee ukubalike? Nakumbuka Makongoro ashawahi kuwa Mbunge Arusha (NCCR Mageuzi) japokuwa ukweli unabaki umaarufu wa Mrema (unfortunately naye Mchagga) wakati ule ulisaidia! jaribu wewe kugombea Mwanza tuone kama utashinda ulivyo Mhaya japokuwa ni kabila jirani na Wasukuma! Ukabila tu unakusumbua ngoja Magamba waendelee kuwatumia na kuwarubuni !chaguzi za Arusha ni za kabila la wachaga tu...........angalia wabunge wote after nyerere in 1995 hadi leo .................angalia madiwani asilimia kubwa inatoka wapi................................facts sometimes can be very dangerous...........................because they expose the truth and only the truth can set us free..............
I don't even think the guy has expressed any feelings there....opinion perhaps but not feelings......Mkuu Rutashubanyuma, you wrote so much and so many illusive things. Of all I liked one sensible phrase "that is how I feel what about you? " I believe you didn't do any investigation to jot down the conclusion about CHADEMA or any other opposition political party in Arusha municipality. Let's wait and see, the ballot box will tell when the moment comes.

From the three points you established it came to my attention that you are not aware of the following single fact
1. CHADEMA IS BEING DRIVEN BY VOTERS NOT ITS MEMBERS OR LEADERS, Thats why ccm is facing huge hardship to destroy CHADEMA!
You must ask yourself why ccm faced great challenge from CHADEMA during by- election in Iganga instead of CUF?
I tried to contemplate deeply not about the Hon G Lema Personality and his Party, but on what was on his message before he handled himself to the Kisongo Prison facility!!
If you have spare time, please go to post no 158 and 159 on this thread and lets contemplate together ..https://www.jamiiforums.com/jukwaa-la...la-lema-8.html
and please, more readings if you wish,

You will note that personally amnt that much interested on any political party or which personality is on the power, but rather its about Humanity, human dignity and nobility in managing our community development!!
I totally believe and have all the faith that , as a nation at the moment we need and should have some kind of special movement to restore the founding principles of the nation; which is mainly the community development BASING ON HUMAN DIGNITY...
mimi Muarusha kabila lenye ukaribu na Uchagga! Vp?are you a Chagga, by the way?
what seems to be inplace is that the government using the machinery it owns wants that Gentleman Lema not to progress.....they are therefore FRUSTRATING HIM......
so your argument is in one hand yes, but..... what happens if they feel like frustrating him whenever he is at their sight?
THAT is the cost of democracy!!! if you were him! Rutashubanyuma, tell me what would you do instead?
mimi Muarusha kabila lenye ukaribu na Uchagga! Vp?
Rutashuba-NYUMA I don't think if there is any piece of truth in your long paragraphs,U tried to show out your hatred to LEMA.You have tried to explain your views but the bad thing is that you concluded your hypothesis without even having evidences.Forget about LEMA and CHADEMA just ask yourself what have you done for this nation brother. Uje na arguments zilizofanyiwa utafiti na sio kukurupuka kaka.For the first time in Arusha politics, ccm is smelling blood of victory....the real reason behind ccm new impetus is that Chadema has made some serious political miscalculations....underestimating the average voter's pertinent needs in Arusha Municipality.

Kimsingi hali ya Arusha ni tete,na UTETE wake umesababishwa na serikali kutowajibika,na kwa makusudi kabisa kupuuzia malalamiko ya msingi,na kushindwa kuchukua uamuzi stahiki,kwa wakati stahiki,matokeo ya UHUNI wa serikali ndio haya yanayoonekana sasa,
Kuna kosa gani kwa Mbunge kutembea kwa mguu kwenye Jimbo lake?
Ngongo wewe unachangia kwa ushabiki na kwa chuki yako binafsi Juu ya CHADEMA na viongozi wake,hakuna kiongozi yeyote wala mwanachama yeyote anayemlipa yeyote ili aende Kisongo au mahakamani,utaratibu huo ni utamaduni wa ccm,kamwe si CHADEMA,
Alichokifanya Lema amekieleza kwa kiswahili rahisi kwenye waraka alioutoa,mwenye kutaka kuelewa ataelewa
Swala la siasa za vurugu Arusha,linasababishwa na polisi period.Nyote ni mashahidi tarehe 12 Jan 2011 wakati wa Kuwaaga mashujaa wetu waliuwawa na polisi pale NMC tulijilinda wenyewe na hakuna vurugu yoyote ilitokea.
Kimsingi hali ya Arusha inawezakuwa mbaya kama serikali itashindwa kuchukua maamuzi
wewe ndiyo unaleta ukabila kama kawaida yenu Magamba! mwache Mbunge wetu afanye kazi yake...!siamini maana tension iliy0opo kati ya wachagaa na waarusha hapa sidhani kma ungelikuwa na misimamo kama uliyonayo..................blood is always thicker than water..........................kikubwa hapa ni kuwa this country is still very tribal no matter how far we go on denial route............

I do share your vision but the niggling question remains about what is an appropriate methodology to achieve that.......................lingering in prison is not the best way to achieve that...............................even angelic Nyerere stayed away from prison in order to avail himself with the opportunities to advance his causes...........................Mandela style and yet personally enforced jail term is the height of madness......................and lema encompasses just that...............
siamini maana tension iliy0opo kati ya wachagaa na waarusha hapa sidhani kma ungelikuwa na misimamo kama uliyonayo..................blood is always thicker than water..........................kikubwa hapa ni kuwa this country is still very tribal no matter how far we go on denial route............
when macain introduced sarah palin as a vp candidate everyone was excited except the psychologists who termed this psychological event as a ''palin factor'' which would only survive for few weeks.
i think this is what is happening in arusha and probably in mbeya,Dar and Mwanza.the "chadema factor"has started waning,the lema factor has gone!
i remember one article saying ccm was tired but chadema was not ready.im afraid if this is not another NCCR of 1995?
