THE BIGGER THEY ARE, THE HARDER THEY WILL FALL


It's about time, which was being waited eagerly by each and every Tanzanian, justice to be served,to come. For years, children of Tanzania have been crying and moaning about misuse of national resources for private benefits illegally.

On Monday, Fake honorable Daniel Yona and his fellow comrade Basil Pesambili Mramba have been dragged to lockup for bad governance and other 13 nasty accusations, which most of them have already been evidenced to be true and the few rest need a small proof to put them in prison.

Tanzanians have been hard working, paying large amount of taxes timely, comply with the rules and regulations with integrity and in accordance with the National constitution without enjoying any substantial gain or benefit from doing all those. Most of the society is still poor and unhealthy because of these few cynics(Mramba and hiss fellow), it was a mess.

Many Tanzanians had lost hope and many others were losing it day after day. But now this act has enlightened their lost hope and they can soon begin to hope for goodness again.

What happened this week at Kisutu court of law is nothing but just a good start. There are a lot of severe actions on their way and they are stormy and menacing. Many people still doubt the incidence and speculate that it's just a decoy set up to silent Tanzanians so that everything will continue as usual. I don’t care, all I know is that sooner or later people are going to fall, and when they do, it will be harder because they are big.

Tanzania of today doesn’t have room for leaders like Mramba and Yona, it's time we stand as one and make sure justice is served for those who have been working days and nights with the hope of a better life one day, and still don’t have it till at the moment.

No matter what happens, one's justice cannot be stolen, destroyed or defeated; it can only be postponed or delayed.

I love hard workers, I love patriots, I love loyalists,I love activists, I love all Tanzanians.

It's me, Emmanuel Cyril Temu(emmino).

BOYCOTTING, A LOSING BATTLE?

Owing to chronic problems prevailing in Tanzania colleges, students have made up their mind and came to the stiff conclusion that boycott is the only promising and effective resort.
But according to history and experience I have had so far concerning college matters, most of boycotts undertaken by students attempting to press hard the administrations to give a closer look on our problems and seek permanent solutions, have virtually turned out to be a tragic failure. It's a battle that we always loose. This fact is evident and I am sure any continuing student can testify this. I am not preaching boycotts are worthless; all I am trying to put into light is the actuality of the consequences and repercussions of already-happened boycotts.
I think before deciding what to do, first, we have to seat and evaluate entirely the decisions we are making, taking into accounts the benefits and downsides of the preferred alternatives, look around to see if there can be another free-of-flaws alternatives before jumping to boycotts which at a good frequency have led us to more problems, and much worse, failed to solve the existing problems. Poor results of boycotts in essence are caused by lack of good grounds and sound baseline to convince other citizens that what we are claiming through boycotts are suitable and feasible.
But sometimes, our leaders need a nudge to wake up,they are deaf and blind until they have seen students rejecting to attend lectures and protesting physically. So I am neither opposing boycotts nor giving a hand. I am stressing to have a concrete and rational reasons before doing anything seriously. If we boycott its ok but let's have grounds to back up our actions, it would be a shame on us to gather and shout SOLIDALITY without reasonable grounds.
It's me and only me, Emmanuel Temu(Emmino).

REMARKABLE TURN UP TRAMPS!


To many particularly those who revere conservatism, this spectacular and breath taking incident is still a dream that in every moment which passes over, they wish to wake up and find out it was merely a dream, and sooner or later it would turn out to be same world we were all used to.
The new American president, the most influential and powerful individual in the world, and the leader of the entire world is now painted with black color!
On 4th of November, Barrack Obama has turned up tramps in the United States election against all expectations of many about black people ruling America. An old saying " every dog has its day "has been revealed by him.
Personally and literally, I am very delighted to acknowledge this, a dream that was beginning to fade and stayed for so long in the minds of black people and true activist for centuries has finally turned out to be a reality.
In fact, this shouldn't be subject to discussion that all Africans and black people altogether ought to be very proud of the 44th U.S.A President, Brack Obama, not because Africa continent is now assured or guaranteed to receive tremendous and potential support from U.S.A just because it's president is black like us, but because he has proven to the whole world that black people can do and accomplish great things like any white and we need respect and appreciation for our contributions on this planet.
I raise this opportunity to sincerely thank Obama for what he has shown the world and much inspirations he has provided to the black society."every thing is possible under the sun"
GOD BLESS OBAMA, Its me and only me,Emmanuel Temu(emmino)
