This Is Wot Change Is; (PMB Should See This) by reechest: 10:50am On Nov 29, 2015 |
When I hear APC rattle about there change mantra,I remain speechless because anything I say will never cover exactly what I want to say.. I came across this piece and I want to share it with my fellow nairalanders.. I wish this will get to President Bubu... Tanzania’s President elect John Pombe Magufuli addresses members of the ruling Chama Cha Mapinduzi Party (CCM) at the party’s sub-head office on Lumumba road in Dar es Salaam, October 30, 2015. REUTERS/Emmanuel Herman Newly elected Tanzanian President John Magufuli has scrapped independence day celebrations to spend the money on a clean- up campaign, an official statement said.The president has instead decreed that on that day everybody should pick up their tools and clean their backyards. “It is so shameful that we are spending huge amounts of money to celebrate 54 years of independence when our people are dying of cholera,” Magufuli said in a statement read on state television late Monday. Last weekend the Tanzanian parliament was going to open and there was a state dinner planned for all guests that was going to cost about 300million Shillings.President Magulufi cut the budget to 25million Shillings and ordered that the rest be taken to buy hospital beds for Muhimbili they got 300 beds and mattresses and 600 bed sheets from that money. On Saturday 21st November 2015 a group of 50 people were about to set off for a tour of commonwealth countries but President Magulufi cut that list down to 4 people, saving government 600m shillings in tickets, accommodation and per diems. It is said when John Magufuli was confirmed winner of the presidential election people started congratulating him and sent gifts to his place which he turned back, saying he will receive all congratulations over the phone and nobody should visit him. Some other austerity measures include: No more foreign travel, embassies will take care; if it’s necessary to go, special permission must be sought from him or Chief Secretary No more 1st class and business class travel for all officials except President, Vice, and Prime Minister. No more workshops and seminars in expensive hotels when their so many ministry board rooms available. President Magulufi asked how come engineers are given V8s when a pick-up is more suitable for their jobs. No more sitting allowances, how the hell are you paid allowance for a job which you have a monthly salary; that also applies to MP’s. All individuals/firms that bought state companies that were privatized but haven’t done anything (20years later) are to either revive the industries immediately or hand them back to the government Tanzania’s say President Magulufi has literally pressed the reset button; returning Tanzania to default factory settings which was the Tanzania Julius Nyerere left. On the day after he was brought to power, as State House officials were showing him round he decided to take a walk to ministry of finance, told government workers to get their act together. He asked why some employees weren’t in offices and ordered the TRA to scrap all tax exemptions, everyone must pay taxes especially the big guys President Magulufi went to Muhimbili Hospital unannounced and walked thru the worst parts that they keep hiden from important visitors and fired the director, the hospital board and ordered that all machines that weren’t working (so that people go to private hospitals owned by some doctors) to be repaired within 2 weeks otherwise he would fire even the new director.The machines were repaired in 3 days. Finally, last week when going to officially open parliament President Magulufi didn’t go by plane, drove the whole 600km from Dar to Dodoma. President Magulufi has reduced the size of the presidential convoy, even reduced the size of presidential delegation that travels with him. President Magulufi chose a Prime Minister most had never heard of before, a man with a reputation for hard work and no corruption.All the big guys Tanzanians expected would be PM have been let wondering what hit them. His motto is: Hapa Kazi Tu This is change https://www.lusakatimes.com/2015/11/26/new-tanzanian-president-john-magufuli-makes-radical-changes/ 2 Likes

i am sorry to say this....but it is just my own opinion anyway...there is no need to be sorry ...tanzania president has done something, and you think that represents change...if you look at Nigerian context...you should also commend the president and pray for the country (biafrans should agitate for their country...this comment is for Nigerians only) i want you to ask yourself this question What is the Population of Tanzania and what is their GDP...(gross domestic product) compare tanzania population to that of our country..compare their GDP what are the challenges naija is facing before the change...compare it to the challenges tanzania is facing before the change...(study the level of damage and then compare) Thank God you didnt include things like ...how he manage its economy despite low GDP and how he give one million people jobs and how he bailed out states that were unable to pay salaries before he took over. Sentiments aside...We are blessed with good leaders like GEJ and PMB....GEJ might wrong a lot of people...but he is a hero....as far as i am concerned, he might jeopardize the system by condemning the polls and that makes him part of the change.... PMB on the other hand is a leader...it is not easy to unseat a president if you dont have the records that worth it...(the heat of the polity at that time is enough to decide) I am not saying i am happy with the current economic situation in the country but as an ECONOMIST....when there is a problem, we fix it with policies...some policies work on the short run while some will work on the long run. I will start my critics after i read the next year budget (PMB is not responsible for this yrs budget) GOD BLESS THE PRESIDENT (PMB) GOD BLESS GEJ GOD BLESS NIGERIA GOD BLESS YORUBA GOD BLESS MY FAMILY GOD BLESS ME |

I understand and appreciate your concern ( Honest or Just to mock PMB) on what is happening in Tanzania and how you think thesame should happen in Nigeria. You and i will agree that Tanzanians are notn as sophisticated as nigerians. I honestly sympathise wit PMB he also had all the Tanzanian president is doing in mind before running for the presidency of Nigeria but unfortunately for him, Nigeria is a bigger, more corrupt and with less people with patience as Tanzania. Some nigerians call President Obamas direct line, Prime minister Cameron, even Russian President Vladimir Putin's direct line and they call eachother by their names. Abeg my bros how PMB wan take muscle dis kind people; that aside how does a nigerian president manage the high degree of impatience of the average nigerian to follow through a process to fruition? Tanzania is definately not Nigeria and its a shame. |
