C'mon Kinana Tour ended a month or so ago, and infact Mnyika was more or so following Zitto's trial..,come back with a batter explanation.Especially as to why, now that Zitto has halted his meetings coincides with CDM halting theirs as well.Worse the Headlines of Mnyika and Mbowe rallies were all about Zitto and ACT. Couldn't they have chosen a far worse coincidence?
UKAWA would have naturally found it's leaders and in the end pick its representative if they had a cohesive message and philosophy, BUT i do not see that. If it's about serving people, why are the headlines we get from UKAWA all about positions for the general elections?
CCM has one of the most robust leadership process among TZ political parties, it's well documented and everything is clear to my understanding. They will have their general meetings where they will nominate their candidates, they did this for several decades, i do not think CCM is worried JK successor, infact they are spoilt with choices.
This is exactly my problem with UKAWA,what kind of unifying agenda is that?i do not see any unity past them being oppositions, what kind of unity exists in CUF and CDM policies?strategies? IS aid this before, if UKAWA really were united, i would have expected them to form a single party to counter CCM, then i would have taken them seriously, otherwise they are trading with a weak hand. This will not happen because no one in UKAWA wants to be subordinate to the other, similar way ZITTO got tired of being subordinate to Mbowe and Slaa and decided to be the Party leader of his own. Tanzania politicians aren't that sophisticated for a bigger cause. Lets not kid ourselves here.
There is plenty of power to be shared, between CDM and CUF they control quite a huge chunk of MP seats,and that is the power what no party wants to be caught napping and give up ground.
I would appreciate if you explain instances where Zitto worked against CDM while within CHADEMA in aid of CCM,it's easy to throw allegations but hurder to prove them. Anyone can throw allegations few can prove them. Logically all i see in Zitto is an ultra competitive politician who does not like to be kept in the background.
Phew, this is quite absurd?Zitto not against the ruling party?isn't this the same dude writing every few sentences "same enemy different fronts" or something like that?so i am expected to take your words against the words of the accused which are very public? It's this kind of cheap rhetoric that makes a lot of us wonder, what happened to the minds in CDM that catapulted it to higher heights circa 2005 elections
Not really actually, i am just amazed at selective justice, that granted Mbatia access to UKAWA that Zitto is denied.You do not see that because you are deeply clouded by your love for CHADEMA, which is fine.,since i am no member of either party i see things as they are and am simply baffled.
If a union is made up of hypocritical and selective justice i don't see how it represents Tanzanians in an honest way. The way i See it is very simple. Draw a line and unite all opposition regardless of past grudges to battle against CCM, or be doomed by thinking selectively picking sides when it suites CDM will help it. At the moment y'all are just giving anmo to CCM.
Unfortunately i do not see any valid change in vision among UKAWA team, seriously, i just see same old same.They need to redefine themselves and tell Tanzanians that. We all see they still obsessively cling onto unnecessary "posho's", Mbowe is using government resources to do campaigning in similar way we complain about CCM using govt resources for themselves. They do not really have anything new democratically,it's all quasi democratic,and don't even get me started on individual qualities of UKAWA leaders.., since i will stop at 10 or may be 20 and run out of any solid respectable, honest leaders. ACT is also in the same charade, its leadership base is ridiculously thin and past a handful of party leaders there isn't much, but at least they can claim they are just a year old. Surprisingly only CUF has the types of leaders that have been tested at the highest levels of leadership. for example if it were my call, i would request UKAWA to appoint Seif as their presidential candidate, since he is the only Leader i know who stands for what he believes and he is extremely capable,and knows when to take compromises when needed.But we all know that will not happen.
It's absurd UKAWA is propping up Slaa and Mbowe while it's clearly they are tiny when placed beside Maalim Seif in each and evry leadership qualities. Maalim is the only person in Ukawa to have served at the highest level of government in Tanzania and with proper leadership qualities. while i see leadership qualities in Dr.Slaa, he really has never been tested as a top leader the way Maalim has.
I personally will only stand behind UKAWA if they are honest with themselves, sio kuleta ujanja ujanja.
ZZK is the only person in this saga who has publicly apologised. You may want to ignore his apology, but i remember reading he did that when he went to say goodbye to his constituents. He even later clarified that he wants to put the past behind. What did CHADEMA do? cling on to the useless traitor this traitor that, that is now useless since Zitto is no longer in CHADEMA.
How can you say Zitto is waging a war against UKAWA while he applied officially to join the UKAWA?am baffled again. What did CHADEMA bigwigs say in response?that will never happen, as if UKAWA is defacto CDM.
I agree Zitto and CDM both made mistakes, but Zitto apologised Chadema did not.Zitto has put the past quarrel behind him, CHADEMA is still acting like a disgruntled ex.
All these words... FOR WHAT?! You've never supported the opp. Suddenly you 'diminutively' stand tall here advising the same people you wish they never clinch power...... WHAT A HYPOCRISY!!!
