but Magufuli can stay in power for 10 years and believe me if he keeps this momentum i am pretty sure we will catch up and surprass kenya! First you have election coming up and i have a strong reason to believe will not be conflict free looking at what is brewing between Ruto and Kenyatta (Jubilee) and RailaGeza Ulole, Tanzania grew when Kenya was 'down', grappling with poor governance and mismanagement during the regime of Moi, and during the political and social crises that follwed the 2007 PEV. Include terrorism to that, it was such a heady brew that saw our economy spiralling downwards.
But our current govt (and the previous one) is struggling to fix all that.
It isnt like Tanzania isnt experiencing its own development challenges that has kept it from achieving its goals to this day. And they will still hound the country for a long time in the future cos those challenges are wide-ranging and complex to sort them all at once.
Tanzania has everything to be even greater than SA today, and what does Kenya have.....well the oil was discovered just recently and its yet to be exploited. But, it's a country that has been operating with very limited mineral resources, except for its skilled man-power, a vibrant private sector and tourism.
