It is like Kikwete is in a trance and his ability to function voluntarily appears lost or could it be we are missing something here ? My God, the word voluntarily suddenly starts me thinking, is Kikwete really in control ? Are there some external forces pulling the strings ? Every evidence points to the fact that there is very little chance of him completing his second term in office, so what prompted him to seek a second term in the first place ? If I remember well he collapsed at the podium on the very first day of the campaign and this I think should have been a signal for him to step back, but no way he kept going or was he ? Something was propelling him to the extent of involving his whole family and vowing to win the presidency by hook or crook. It was as if winning meant everything for him, his family (and whoever) and that losing couldnt have been tolerated, question is by whom ? Kikwete, stop putting our beloved country at ransom, resign and save our country from humiliation at the hands criminals and gold diggers.
