Tanzania's Kikwete is one
of the most pathetic African leaders of our times. He is a peacetime leader for
a country known to be one of the richest in the world in terms of natural
resources, yet he leads the world with begging. Foreign companies have known
Tanzania to be a free land in which you can go in and take all you can without
being asked a question. I really don't get the mind set of its leaders
especially their president Mr. Kikwete, a Muzungu worshiper.
Having worked with the UNDP
in that country for 8 years, I realized how inefficient and corrupt the
country's leadership is. His ministers that requested bribes from BAE have
never been tried despite the damning evidence against them. British TAX payers
must stop funding this man's corruption and foreign trips. His human rights
record is horrible. Mr. Kikwete had no business of going to Davos to ask for
foreign aid. Already his country is the world third leading foreign Aid
dependent nation. He should be embarrassed to say to the world that people are
poor. His people living "hand to mouth” is his own ignorance and
stupidity.That is his own problem.
Brits are having their own
problems he must realize that. We cant bankroll his foreign trips. He should
make good use of his country's wealth. Instead of letting his corrupt officials
and foreigners loot his country, he needs to think before letting himself be a
global laughing stock. I read in one of the regional (Kenyan) publications the
mockery nature related to his frequent foreign trips. Palestinian, Haiti,
Lebanon, Somalia and even Rwanda economies are more robust than that of
Tanzania. We must question the nations that welcome this "Joker's"
request for AID. He needs to be on a "no-fly" list so he can be
serious. Hopefully the billionaires questions what he has done with the Money
he has received for decades. The Arab spring should turn into the African
summer and get rid of the Kikwete likes.
Linda Croucher;
This man did not deserve to
be a head of state. He has no credibility. How can a head of state be bribed
suits? We must write Downing Street and our parliament, and let them know that
Aid to some of these African countries ought to STOP. Nyerere, the founding
president of Tanzania was a visionary even though his socialist policies
failed, but he was a nationalist and a true patriot.
Kenya, Rwanda, Ghana have
seen far and are on the roll to economic dependence. Kikwete, and his crony of
ruling elites getting richer and richer. These people have no electricity yet
the country has so many dams and rivers. There should be a policy to bar all
corrupt leaders and their children from stepping into the EU. I don't blame
Kikwete, i blame Tanzanians for letting this happen. They should be 100%
responsible for their poverty and suffering. We just don't need them to come
for Aid. We have many Brits out of work, and that money should pay for their
Unemployment Benefit.
African problem is more
than foreign aid. They are not ready for economic transformation. In Tanzania
today, they have started the leadership inheritance in which the old guards
passes on the torch to their children. We should not expect anything serious
from African nations. If it means our money, lets cut it off. We have so many
social problems to deal with people's own created misery because they will
never have free elections without someone stuffing ballot boxes and ready to
let the whole country in flames as long as they remain in power and their
children in top American and British schools

The issue with Tanzania
president is not a British issue or a global issue. It is a Tanzania voter's
issue. They have let this man continue with corruption and impunity. Those in
diplomatic circles especially in the US state department are privy of the
matter and very disgusted with Kikwete. He is not a serious leader and the
chatter in Washington about his endless lavish foreign trips is not flattering.
He is an embarrassment to his country and African leaders.
He has literally sold his
country and done nothing to combat corruption. Nepotism has risen; those in
power ensures they slot in their children in sensitive positions before they
retire. Currently, 15% of Tanzania government leadership is made of sons and
daughters of those that once ruled or still in power.
I see Tanzania in the line
of Tunisia and Egypt very soon, and won't lose sleep if this man is ousted, we
just don't want him in America. UK, you can have him. Our cabinet secretaries
take the subway (underground and over ground trains), their ministers in
expensive land cruisers. Not with our tax dollars. I learned through secret
channels that one of his associates transported a Range Rover in a cargo plane
to Tanzania
Then go around and say
“Hand to Mouth”???????? Comment from a whole president to his fellow world
leaders? Can he ask himself why???
Davos main goal is to
discuss Euro crisis not African problems and this president should have known
that, because at the end of the day he will be leaving bare handed.

MALAYA uhuru wa kuongea hili sio gazeti ukilete usenge utajibiwa usenge,ati Anonymous nenda shule
Siamini macho yangu kwa haya niliyoysoma hapa kwa hizi comment 5.Na maana ya kusema siamini macho yangu ni kutokna na kadhia yenyewe ilivyokuwa na umuhimu wa kupindukia ya kuwaonyesha watanzania-wadanganyika-kama navyotuita Mwalimu Mhango.Ama kweli sisi ni wadanganyika ambao ni vipofu,viziwi na mababu.ikiwa mtu wa nje na ambaye sio mwafrika anatulilia machozi kwa uchungu kuona nchi yetu inavyofisadiwa,kuibiwa na kuporwa na mafisi wa nje na wandani wakiongozwa na waliopo ndani ya ofisi tuliowaweka sisi wenyewe watanzania-mimi siwaiti wala kuwazingatia ni viongozi-kuanzia awamu ya pili hadi hii ya utumbo utumbo ya 4,eti bado kuna baadhi ya watanzania bado hawauoni ukweli huo mbele ya macho yao na kuendelea kubaki na akili mgando na kuendelea kuwa katika kuwa katika kundi la kuramba nyao na viatu wa hao wanaowazingatia kama ni viongozi wao.
Hii ni kadhia muhimu na wala kusingetakiwa kuwa na maandishi ya ukosefu wa nidhamu hoja mwenzio ni hoja hoja haijibiwi kamwe na matusi kujibu hoja kwa matusi ni dhahiri kwamba kilichongelewa ni cha kweli na haki na ukweli siku zote ni mchungu.
Anon wote nawashukuru kwa mchango wenu. Waliotukana nadhani wameonyesha wao ni nani na mawazo yao ni yapi na uwezo wao ni upi. Waliowaelewa nao nawashukuru kwani mmewasaidia. huenda siku nyingine watajifunza watumie lugha ya staha. Kwa sababu hapa hatugombani tunaeleimishana na kusaidiana. Cha msingi, tujibu hoja kwa hoja na kuthamini michango ya wenzetu.
Mwalimu Mhango futa hizo comments zenye matusi hapo juu. Hawa wanaotetea ufisadi yawezekana wakawa wao wenyewe au waliowatuma. Hatuhitaji matusi hapa.
Anon nakushukuru sema sitaondoa hizo comments ili kuepuka kuwapa nafasi watukanaji kuonyesha uhovyo wao. Nashukuru wengine wameliona hili na kuwajibu wahusika. Pia nimeona utoto wa anon wa kwanza alipojijibu haraka akiwa wa pili. Haiwezekani mtu aweke comment mwingine baada ya dakika moja aijibu kana kwamba walikuwa wamepanga. Huo ndiyo utoto niliuona na kuuongelea.
