Ruling class or bullying class?

Bibbers are openly at loggerhead with the power that-be thinking they’re bullied in lieu of being ruled. They feel betrayed and vended by the same guys they gave ulaji. Such sentiments become a reality especially due to mindlessness and madness some of their biggies. Refer to wanton cops’ cruelty which causes the deaths of impeccable boozers. Isn't it mass and crass bullying? Should we bury our heads in the sands pretending everything is spiffy? Nay! It isn't us.  Bibbers won’t offer themselves to any beast or wino to bully them anymore. The other day I heard Madam Alvera Senzo flexing muscles saying that if CDM forms Blue-cum- Green-Guard-like gangs to defend itself cops will lord it over it while ignoring other bullying gangs under bullying parties. It’ll be utter cowardice for cops to allow themselves to be used as diapers by rulers.
Take, for instance, recent grenade attack in Arusha in which cops are accused of aiding the suspect to flee. Nobody bothers to hunt down the culprits. Can we go on with this boorish ‘Dog-eat-Dog’ madness? Why’s it legitimate for Ngunguri and Ngangari to have Blue and Green Guard gangs respectively whilst it is illegitimate for CDM? Isn’t bullying committed by those mandated to protect us? Whom are they protecting by mercilessly butchering us? Should we keep on entrusting them with our powers as we pay tax to fatten them for our peril? Are we that crazy and stupid?  Where are the cops especially after failing to keep tabs on Igondhus and other known criminals?
We recently evidenced ruckus and rumpus when CDM said it’ll form self-protection groups after cops proved beyond doubt to be in bed with the bullying, sorry, ruling party.  Instead of telling Numero Uno to stop monkey biz, the screwed up cops are playing makidamakida harassing and undermining opponents. How many times should we tell? Seers, literati even common bin-Adams warned: Insecurity for boozers has nary been addressed. Had our honchos fought corruption practically not theoretically, nobody would be forming self-defensive mechanisms. Had thinkers in our offices used their brains, not masaburis, in signing investment contracts would this entire imbroglio have ensued? Let’s face it. Is investment, in our hunk, good for the hoi polloi?  Simple, if it is, it is for the hoity toitty that can manipulate the laws and procedures to get away with 10% cuts. This, even the bird knows. Isn't it mass bullying? Isn’t bullying crass?
Corruption’s caused many miseries to the hunk’s paupers. Biggies squander though the ailing economy can’t support such economic unreasonableness. Who cares if they’re still empowered amidst high and unnecessary spending- in their global trotting?  Who’s easily forgotten how Presider and his wifey left for Majuu when Ntwara imbroglio erupted?  When opposition tells them this is wrong they feel offended! Uvivu wa kufikiri.
 Again, our economy’s always been prescribed in Washington and Davos. Thus, the reality on the ground’s always ignored altogether simply because the donors--- who benefit from our economy thanks to their exploitative policies--- are the ones to give us a nod. Isn't this bullying done by those pretending to be our saviours while they actually are our persecutors? What pains is that when economic blowback resulting from this bullying registers, those guys jump the smoking gun and leave the guilt to our silly begging biggies.  
All in all and above all, those who take us for a ride end up bullying us simply because they’re the ruling class. We now need a truly ruling class not a bullying class with all of its crassitude and crap. Though it is a close call for peaceable boozer of the hunk, no way we can go on making do with it. Boozers have to emancipate themselves. This is the only hypothesis I can put forth shall this hunk aim at ending bullying and bunkum. Again, the writings are on the wall for both protagonists (to read and interpret) shall they deserve to live a safe and sound life in the future. This is the only epic bellwether whose rightly interpretation is the survival of our hunk so to speak.
Bullying in the name of ruling can be seen in every aspect of hunk’s political equilibration. Even birds can see it. Mob justice’s become the in-thing after cops became killers. Boozers have totally lost confidence in the system. Vigilantes have taken law in their hands after cops took them for a ride. Theft involving billions of dosh are reported and nobody is brought to book. What do you expect? Rich ones can hire private guards. Such a situation creates dangerous aura for responsible and honest boozers. What baffles is: Why’s it taken long for the victims to see all this mess? Though the Voynich Manuscripts are seen as un-decodable stuff that beat all gurus in the field, for the sheepishly peaceable creatures of this hunk, the same might apply as to why they've nary been able to decipher this bullying. Again, courage is needed to topple fear and sheepish and fake peaceability.
Bullying, normally, boils down to chaos and instability.  While all signs are clear, the biggies are still pointlessly saying that things are spiffy! What spoof kind of thinking! How if at all boozers of the same hunk are living in two different worlds at the same time? While those with dosh in Swiss banks are getting richer and richer, impoverishment is claiming millions of those entrusted them with maulaji and they don’t care!   To get out of this pastiche unscathed, boozers need to face the reality at this moment of truth.  This, too, needs moral fibers, openness, accountability and vision especially in all aspects of manning the business of the boozers. Myopia, self-deception and crass sanaa aren't needed in this encounter with reality.
Given that my job is to swallow, I better leave their turf to them. The wisdom of today is “time time before time times you.”

Mkuu Mpayukaji,
kwa kweli ninapenda na ninaelimika mno kila nisomapo maandiko yako. Ingawa unaandika kwa mtindo wa "casual" zaidi, masomo unayotoa yanagusa mno. Hofu yangu ni iwapo ungekuwa unaweka maandiko haya (hususan hili la "Ruling or bullying class") kwa lugha ya kiSwahili pia ili ujumbe uwafikie waTanzania wengi.

Si siri, blog yako imekuwa kama "msaafu" kwangu.

Shukrani ndugu yangu Anonymous. Nilishafanya hivyo sema sikutafsiri neno baada ya neno. Unaweza kuiona hiyo kitu kwenye uzi usemao "Kijiwe Kuunda Jeshi la Kujihami."
Nakushukuru tena kwa kunitembelea na kuacha unyayo wako. Karibu wakati wowote na usiacha kuacha unyayo.

Boozers need to wake up and smell the coffee! Or maybe drink it if they have been imbibing it all night. Reminds me of the bad old days of slavery. The master would ply the slaves with liquor on Saturdays and make them go to church on Sundays. Pretty much what CCM does. Ply them with booze, fiestas, drugs and whatnot and make sure they make it to mosque on Friday or church on Sunday to "pray" for peace. What a load of bollocks!
