Sam Sitta Spot on Politicos Bribing Church Leaders

Dear Sam Sixx,

 Shalom Aleichem wa Assalaam Alaykum,

Jokes aside, man you've become more a cleric than a politico! Ratziti Sheteda (I want you to know). Wonder not.  I know some Hebrew and Arabic. I recently heard you rushing at word-of-God vendors in the tabernacle in Tegeta at the fundraising. You openly told them to avoid being trapped by the sin of greed and money worshiping. However, they’re already swimming in it. You said, “Please, please Christians refuse the monies obtained by means of bribery. For it is like embracing sins.” Well said.  You egged Christians to refuse from being cheaply used by corrupt politicos. How many times should they be used!

Thanks for such wisdom mkuu; however, it fell on deaf ears. Again, can a dog spare a bone really? May be, just maybe! Please never tell sippers to stop swallowing kanywaji; won’t buy it. So too, never tell the power that-be to take on corruption. How if people of cloak charged with duty to admonish rulers to stop blessing corruption and impunity are in the same bed?

Though I’m not a religious creature, the other day I was reading the Bible after finishing the Qur’an and others looking for the authorization of kanywaji. In these books of authority I like the golden rule rightly observed in as thus:  One should not behave towards others in a way which is disagreeable to oneself. This is the essence of morality. All other activities are due to selfish desire, (Hinduism. Mahabharata, Anusasana Parva 113).

Wait. Jesus said, “Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them,” (Luke 21:8).  

Many ‘Judas Iscariot’ of Kerioth are currently vending our souls. These pillagers calling themselves humongous names such as bishop, honorouble, apostle, reverend and whatnot are in bed with thieves of public funds. Instead of shaming thieves, the ‘people of God’ enter unholy alliance with them. This has tarnished their religiosity. Are these swindlers of God or servants of their greed and stomachs? Waongo wakubwa!

 I wonder.  Why what belongs to Caesar is being given to the ‘shepherds’ instead of Caesar? Ufisadi mtupu!  Again, Jesus warned: For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many (Matthew 25:5). Yeah, the son of man was right. For after his death there followed many interpolations such as the bishop of Roma to become the bishop of the world and many coxed stuff so to speak. Those who remember David Yallop’s masterpiece, “In God’s Name,” will agree with us that the Holy See sank in mud after its Istituto per le Opere di Religione (IOR) was caught in bed with Banco Ambrosiano. This scam came to light after the felling of Pope John Paul II. Again, this shouldn’t be used as an excuse by those money worshipers in the name of God saying: “If the giant can do it why not us?”

Nowadays, the house of God’s become scandalous so much so that tax evaders, money launderers, prostitutes, venal politicians, business magnates, thugs, and jinxes contribute to its construction! Like ikulu, after Mchonga, all venal faces enter and congregate there without raising eyebrows! What a wicked society we've become! Sometimes, I feel like our hunk’s occupied by blind and insane creatures. How come we don’t even see such dirty money like that of Richmonduli penetrating into religions? God’s not that bankrupt and corrupt and doesn't need dirty money from filthy politicians and thieves to run ministries.

 Again, does this dirty money ‘aimed at God’ reach him or her or it is just being swindled in the name of God?  Wezi wakubwa! One bibber called such roadshows theft within theft. It is rip off everywhere. You rip paupers off and offer to God and believe you've done a right thing! What abracadabra!

Why don’t these criminals ask themselves a simple question: If these jinxes donating dirty money love God, why do they rob his or her people? How come they rob the same poor people of God and pretend to donate the loot to the ministries of God? Given that those guys are self-seekers, despite asking themselves the same question, take the money and spend it with their wives in the name of God.  Matthew saw it, He simply wrote, "So you, too, outwardly appear righteous to men, but inwardly you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness,"(28:23I). I know. They know this verse. Given that they’re using masaburis to think, they pooh pooh everything and receive dirty money. Wealth’s become their religion swallowed hook, line, and sinker so to speak.

 We’re tired of hypocrisy. Let those bribing the temple come out of their shells and tell us how they made their money instead of pretending they can’t hear. Eddie Ewassa, why don’t you tell your colleagues to come clean on this in the first place? Roastamu Aziz, you’re the first one to offer millions to a certain church in Kinondoni. Come clean please. Do you think God is a tart who loves money so much so that when you give money can do whatever you want? Fool yourself not my friends. We know how dirtier your dosh is and how greedy, skinny and small those so-called people of God are. Like dogs, they can lick anything provided they fill their thankless stomachs. Well said Mr. Sam Six. Blessed be.

Off-the-hook cue: I heard presider Jake Kikwete saying that he won’t stop borrowing. For, debts won’t be paid in his life time. He disputed the truth that every Tanzanian owes donors Tshs. 400,000 odd. Again, he didn’t give an actual figure! Uongo mwingine bwana! Who tells lies or truth? Please don’t ask me.
