Needless to say, of all Tanzanian presidents, Samia is the most maligned, prone to skepticism and to bearing a tag of leading a government of Kakistocracy. Although in comparison with her predecessor, she is of unmatched democratic credentials; being a restorer of a semi-political open space.
It is a heart-wrenching, therefore, to see such a beautiful soul sink deeper into a quagmire of citizens' dissatisfaction, incompetence, corruption and under-achieving; simply because of the sycophants and hangers-on, who are running a roughshod around her.
President Samia should first take stock of her ministers, top aides and advisors. Most are on the job for personal rather than national interests. Some are running huge businesses because of their status, not because they are smart. Some are nursing presidential ambitions themselves and, as such, they will be more than happy to hack into the baobab tree expecting its fall.
President Samia should shrug off the 'Alice in the wonderland syndrome' which is largely fueled by CCM 's black weevils, who are gaslighting the president and make her have a tunnel vision of the actual situation in the country. The truth is, only the CCM fat cats are the ones celebrating 'the progress' being achieved in the country. To the majority of the citizens the situation is pretty dystopian.
President Samia should immediately get rid of the 'dead woods' in her government; of certain characters who have orchestrated economic and financial malarkey; leading to Tanzania Shilling be branded 'the worst performing currency in the world'
Tanzania has now reached a level where it presents a graphic snapshot of a country in crisis economically, politically and socially.
If no immediate measures are taken to salvage the situation, the country will be in a danger of committing a Hara-kiri!

Bila ya shaka, kati ya marais wote wa Tanzania, Rais Samia ndiye anayekosolewa zaidi, akilengwa kwa shaka na kubeba sifa ya kuongoza serikali ya watu wasio na sifa wala uwezo—kakistokrasia. Hata hivyo, ikilinganishwa na mtangulizi wake, hana mfano katika masuala ya demokrasia na upanuzi wa nafasi ya kisiasa. Ni jambo la kuhuzunisha mno kuona mtu mwenye moyo mzuri namna hii akizama katika lindi la kutoridhika kwa wananchi, uzembe, ufisadi na utendaji duni; hali ambayo kwa kiasi kikubwa inachangiwa na wasifuasi na wapambe wanaozunguka naye, ambao wamekuwa wakimwelekeza vibaya.

Rais Samia anapaswa kuanza kwa kufanya tathmini ya mawaziri wake, wasaidizi wake wa juu na washauri wake. Wengi wao wapo madarakani kwa maslahi binafsi, si kwa maslahi ya taifa. Baadhi yao wamejikita katika kufanya biashara kubwa wakitumia nafasi walizo nazo, si kwa sababu wana uwezo wa kipekee. Wengine wana ndoto za kugombea urais wenyewe, hivyo wako tayari kukata mizizi ya mti wa mbuyu ili uanguke kabisa.

Rais Samia anapaswa kuachana na hali ya 'Alice katika nchi ya ajabu'—hali ya kutoona uhalisia—ambayo inachochewa zaidi na 'wewe wa CCM' waliogeuka kuwa viwavi wa giza, wanaompotosha na kumfanya aone mambo kwa mtazamo finyu. Ukweli ni kwamba, wanaoshangilia 'maendeleo' yanayodaiwa kupatikana nchini ni wale wakubwa wa CCM tu. Kwa wananchi walio wengi, hali ni ya kutisha na ya aina ya udikteta wa kiuchumi na kijamii.

Rais Samia anapaswa kuwaondoa mara moja watu waliopoteza mwelekeo na wale waliotajwa kuhusika na uchakachuaji wa kiuchumi na kifedha, hali iliyosababisha Shilingi ya Tanzania kutajwa kuwa sarafu inayofanya vibaya zaidi duniani.

Tanzania sasa imefikia hatua ya kuonyesha kwa uwazi picha ya nchi iliyoko katika mgogoro wa kiuchumi, kisiasa na kijamii. Isipokuwa hatua za haraka zichukuliwe kuokoa hali hii, nchi inaweza kujikuta ikijitumbukiza katika janga kubwa la kitaifa—ikijifanyia "hara-kiri".

You are very, extremely silly comparing Samia to Magufuli.

JPM alikuwa Mzalendo wewe kibaraka.
Nchi ikifika uchumi wa kati.
Free education. SSH ameongeza gharama maradufu.
Kulinda rasilimali zote za nchi. Yeye anauza kila kitu.
Kurudisha nidhamu serikalini. Hakuna nidhamu sasa
Kupunguza rushwa. Rushwa imetamalaki.
Kuchagua viongozi wazalendo, yeye anafukuza wazalendo.
Umeme, maji, barabara, vivuko, SGR, reli ya kati alivijenga.

Akapunguza kodi.

JPM alitaka Uchumi wa Tanzania kujitegemea. SSM Yeye akili ni mikopo ya vyoo, ya makongamanl ya seminar, kuzurura ulaya,USA kama akili yako ya hovyo kabisa. Aliwathibiti wapuuzi na wahuni kama nyie inalolizamisha Taifa sasa hivi.

Muhuni mwenzako amepandisha kodi, tozo, mikopo. PPP bado anayumba kama mlevi.

Wewe ni mpuuzi kweli kweli, demokrasia ipi, huoni watu wanaotekwa, kuuwawa. Kibao angekuwa baba yako ungeelewa. Mbowe alikaa jela miezi 8 baadaye akapewa rushwa, Lissu yupo jela.

Amejichagua kuongoza CCM bila kufuata demokrasia, katiba,kanuni, taratibu. Amekifungia Chadema kushiriki uchaguzi.


Viongozi wazuri wote wanafukuzwa kazi kama Slaa, Lukuvi, Polepole, walipunguzwa nguvu kama Majaliwa na Mpango. Majizi yanapewa nafasi.

Bandari, misitu, airports, ports wamepewa Waarabu.

Mbona wanitusi mkuu. Mimi nimetafsiri tu
 
Mbona wanitusi mkuu. Mimi nimetafsiri tu
Ungeandika unatafsiri. Otherwise wewe na mtoa mada ni kitu kimoja. Mnamtetea huyu mhuni dalali wa kuuza Tanganyika, Watanganyika akiwatumia Watanganyika, machawa kama nyie kama babu zake wa Oman walivyowafanya muwe watumwa, muwe na akili hizi unazotumia kutafsiri akili ya mhuni mmoja.
 
Mbona wanitusi mkuu. Mimi nimetafsiri tu
Baba yakona mama yako wazalendo wanatukanwa na wewe unatafsiri neno kwa neno bila kusema unatafsiri.

Unamwambia baba yako husemi juu kwamba unatafsiri maneno ya mhuni mmoja.

Unamwambia Baba wewe ni mwizi, jambazi, muuaji, amekuzaa, alikusomesha, kukupa elimu, afya, kazi, chakula na Mama wewe ni malaya mkubwa sana. Mama aliyekulea na kukutunza hadi umekuwa unajitambua.

Baba,Mama yako watakutafri vipi?

If no immediate measures are taken to salvage the situation, the country will be in danger of committing a Hara-kiri!

First things first, let me make it plainly clear. I am no Samia fan. So let's get that out of the way, whatever I write here, I am not writing to defend Samia. Samia was not prepared for the presidency, even as no one is ever adequately prepared, she is more ill prepared than most if not all Tanzanian presidents.

Having said that, let's analyze your thoughts.

Your antidotes are superficial like sucralose.

You are prescribing Cofta to alleviate coughing for someone whose problem is untreated AIDS related Tuberculosis.

You will never treat anything to a successful healing.

Samia's problem is not her ministers. Getting rid of them will solve nothing as new ones will do the same. She has been very actively hiring and firing to no avail.

Samia is not capable to lead a modern multinational organization, let alone a country. She is not well read, she is not an intellectual, she is not inspiring, she is not a visionary.

Her problem is not only that she doesn't know, she doesn't even know what she doesn't know.

To be truthful, Samia is not the problem. Samia is the symptom of the problem.

How did Samia get to be president? That is the problem. Most Tanzanians are a bunch of country bumpkins. It did not occur to them that the VP is a heartbeat away from the presidency. Less than a heartbeat if the president's heart is supported by a pacemaker. Let's call that a pacemakers malfunction away.

Then some Tanzanians have the audacity to say that Samia did not ascend to the presidency properly because no one elected her to be president. These yahoos and yokels did not know electing the president on a ticket with a running mate, per our current constitution, is electing the running mate as a backup president.

They don't even know what is in the current constitution, yet most of them want a new one.

Tanzania has no grooming systems for leaders, has no meritocracy, how do you expect to get quality leadership?

This is beyond CCM and politics, we have a societal problem.

People cry foul loudly regarding democracy, but we do not have democracy even in the opposition parties. We don't even have democracy in our homes, many wives and children are just bullied. How do you expect good governance and democracy in government if it doesn't start in the home? That is why leaders give us lip service and take the whole good governance enterprise as one big joke. All the way to 4Rs.

People wonder why Magufuli was such a bully and undemocratic, but they don't look at how he was raised. He was bullied from a very young age, by his own family. By the time he became president, his MO was that it was his time to bully people. At the subconscious level he rationalized his bullying because he was bullied and fought to the top to be a bully. 8ntellectuals did not understand this crass country bumpkins, but Tanzanians who revolved around tge bullying system loved him. His bullying words and actions are the only language Tanxanians understand, they explained him to us human rights buffs.

We are like wild animals, from the way we fight to get into buses to the way people steal votes in elections by hooks, crooks and killing sprees.

During Kikwete's presidency, I sat with some of my friends in the suburbs if New York City, discussing Tanzanian politics. One of them lamented that he thought he had seen it all and Kikwete was the worst president Tanzania was evwr going to have. I told him don't be so fast to judge, he nay live to see a succession of unprecedentedly worsening presidencies.

True to my prediction, Magufuli turned out to be worse than Kikwete in so many significant ways, and now Samia is only saved by her soft spoken Zanzibari veneer to be exposed for how ruthless she really is.

We have a bigger problem than our leaders, bigger problem than Samia.

Our culture, we, Tanzanians, are tge biggest problem.

Leaders do not emerge from a vacuum, they are part of us, we give them power.

We only point fingers at them because it is easier on us to shift responsibikity to them.
 
mkuu achana na kiingereza kingi ungeandika tuu
NO REFORM NO ELECTION.....

Dont blame 'our culture'. It is a fallacy as it is dreary! I assume you are a spring chicken. I am old and ugly enough to intimate you a few facts.
Tanzanians at the advent of independence were the most loveable people, more so than all East Africans. Corporations' Head hunters from Nairobi and Kampala were streaming to Tanganyika to pick honest, hardworking and upright workers; inasmuch as Tanzanians were manning, officiating EA assets, depots from Kampala, Jinja, right to Mombasa.
What happened then? Enter Socialism. A socialist regime, if introduced to illiterates, rotten poor, with no industries to chase the bourgeoises off from.........it turns into a wild animal. Because, essentially, Socialism is about glorifying the leaders who vouchsafe (gift) the masses their wisdom, alimentations and even their health and lives! We still have some enigmatic socialist slogans in Tanzania from the era gone: 'pesa za mama, pochi ya mama, mama ametoa....'
This is what had happened. Worse, when they decided to ditch Socialism, they did not prepare the Tanzanian who all along was made to believe it was the government's duty to feed him, school him and treat his wound when ill.
That was the starting point of corruption, industrial scale corruption, thieving, extravagance and...of course ruthlessness, bestiality of man to man. Even today, our leaders are capitalists when awake, but Socialists asleep!
To be frank, it is all Mwalimu's fault, though I hasten to say he did not mean it, it was not intentional,. But, again, 'intentions do not excuse actions'.

First things first, do not assume I am a spring chicken.

Too much ready assumptions is another problem of our culture. No respect for facts and investigation.

The fact that Socialism was able to infiltrate our system is a product pf our culture. A culture that is vigilant of infiltration and resilient would have fend off this encroachment.

When you say it is all Mwalimu's fault, firstly you are not being fair. No one man does have that much power. But even if you are somehow right, letting one man having that much power is a product of culture. A culture of too much respect for leaders.

You cannot escape the culture aspect.

I am in a hurry but because I see here a glaring mistake intellectually an historically, by lumping all blame on culture... let me say this: I think you are ignoring the dynamics of a young, recently independent people and the role of leaders thereof. If Mwalimu had taken a different route to development, not that which entrenches the power of the leader....we could have seen a different nation emerging by now; a nation free of fear, confident and at peace with itself. All the ills we have now were built up from that era when our nation was like a baby you could mould it in which way!

That interpretation is due to your lack of ability to read comprehensively.

Which is also a cultural problem.
 
That interpretation is due to your lack of ability to read comprehensively.
This.... to a former Head of media at IOM, UN and BBC!
Must be a 'Narcissistic Personality Disorder', which does neither help nor advance any meaningful debate.
Resting my case. Please, have the biscuit..... YOU ARE THE WINNER!
