THE truth about the real NYERERE won't be known until and after CCM becomes a party in opposition: CCM mollycoddles NYERERE as a 'MESSIAH' for political reasons, who he is not. THE only reason is that no one who had attempted to reveal the real face of the 'FATHER OF THE NATION', ever succeeded: they all failed miserably; SIGWIYAMISI, JMK THAT ******, LOWAHASAA, MSUHUYA, KAMANDOO SALMIN all tried and failed. NOW they have given up beclouding the bad side of NYERERE: that oppressive hand of his and his hard heardedness.
THEY CCM have decided to borrow a leaf of advice from all-time philosophers that; if you cannot fight a man, join him. THEY've failed to bring to fore the bad image of NYERERE, now they've decided to join him and sing "messiah" praising songs, his other hand: the good side of his, that of a freedom fighter, and a nation builder. THEY use his name for political objectives, in that they CCM do everything possible to 'shoulder-kick' any attempts that tend to show NYERERE the political oppressor and war monger.
SO the real NYERERE won't be known in the near future ...
