Shwari,
Thanks for good narrative. Just to remind you, in 1964 we formed the union between the then Tanganyika and Zanzibar, both side signed the article of Union and URT constitution. I fully understand that there is contention on contents of article of union and the URT constitution. Miraculously,the Znz retained semi autonomy since 1964. In other words there is Znz and Tanzania[znz inclusive]. Tanganyikans never complained of relinguishing too much for the sake of unity.
The Znzbarian have been using the secession as a weapon when they want their demands meet. They started with soccer team, then National flag,national anthem, then consitution, Not namedTanzania, now borders etc etc. However, for any beneficial issue to them, like land, employment and other services they never identify themselves as Zanzibarian but Tanzania. Changes effected on monday is an example of hypocracy by our brothers.Let me testify the hypocracy theory of Znz. Oil is not a union matter, but land is !!! How could it be posible to extract oil from the sky!!!
So, if you understand the concern of majority in this forum, you should be well informed that we as Tanganyikans have no intention to stop the Znz decide their fate. It is imperative that they exercise the freedom with acumen,candid and transparently without bungling procedure. I would like them to have referendum on union, and I will honour their decision. There is no point of affronting each other or using muscles to hold them. The problem with Znz is on modus operandi, in this context I challenge the Leaders to express their grievance openly and with veracity instead of promoting the treason act with cheap and unpopular politics.
For Tanganyikans, Union is better as everybody is striving for in this new world. However we will not be losers simply because they are gone!
