Mr. President you are approaching the next election as an incumbent. People will judge you on your performance as a President. The points you scored during your presidency will either lift you or ditch you in the bewilderment
In the 2015 elections you rode on your performance as a Works Minister in both the Mkapa and Kikwete presidencies. You carried a tag of a tough talking and tacklingMinister, building kilometres of roads across the country. Unfortunately these attributes have now eluded you as a president. Giving credence to previous opinions of opposition gurus that you can only perform better as a minister with some authority above you that if left loose you can turn to be dictatorial with no an iota of compassion o the poor Tanzanians.
I can give examples where you scored in your own goal.
1. The Kagera earthquake debacle showed some of your inner deficiencies. You failed miserably on this. Most of us made our contributions to the victims after witnessing on Tv the appalling living conditions the victims were subjected to after the quake. We did not contribute to repair the damaged infrastructure where you forcefully diverted our contributions to.
On this you showed how disconnected you are to the lives and hearts of many Tanzanians. And to cap it all when you visited them you gave very unsouvoury words. Let me quote the words of the first president of TANZANIA, Julius Nyerere , "The president of Tanzania has a responsibility to ensure every TANZANIA has a right to good life"

The 'Viroba' saga also showed us how detached you are to the business community.Viroba trade was a very legal undertaking with business people investing heavily in both production and trade. Your decision to stop the production and trade of viroba without considering the fate of those in the-business caused some-to loose their sources of livelihood and others lost their lives altogether
2. The Bashite saga showed that you are no more-the Magufuli, the minister, Now you condone forgeries and falsifications. ÀAnd you can go an extra mile protecting forgerers to the extent of firing your Minister.
3. Bashite season 2 showed your dictatorial tendencies. Where Bashite acted as a goon Rambo-style-and invaded cloud Tv Studios with armed soldiers.
Another eyesore in your presidency is your decision to give total blackout to the live Bunge coverages, not understanding that Tanzanians have now gone the digital way and are now pro "mubashara" coverages.
You had an opportunity to conquer the hearts of Tanzanians and attain th title of "Raisi Wa mioyo yetu" The title that has been conferred to one of your fiercest rival in the last general election.
Many ofYour judgements have showed the world your inner qualities. Think of this, Tundu Lissu has been challenging you to discard your dictatorial tendencies. Your reactions has been to keep him behind bars. Nay wa Mitego has called you a dictator. Surprisingly, you ordered that he be released from police ramshackles and invited him to visit you at State House. What is the difference between "dikteta uchwara" and "kiongozi asiyetaka ushauri wowote"?
