On November 5, 2015 Tanzania swore into office a new President. Coincidentally he is also a John.

John Magufuli is doing what has been termed the “Rwandanisation of Tanzania”. If you dont know about what Paul Kagame has done with Rwanda make Google your friend.

Here are some of the things John Magufuli has done already in LESS THAN A MONTH. Not in 3 or 6 years, one month. He’s shown a clear commitment to walk the talk but not to talk and talk and talk and talk more like we do here:

1. Soon after his election, Magufuli declared there would be no celebration of Independence Day on 9 December because it would be “shameful” to spend huge sums of money on the celebrations when people were dying of cholera. Instead, the day has been set as a national day of cleanliness, and the money will go toward street¬cleaning services. He has said everybody should pick up their tools and clean their backyards.

2. After his first official visit to the Muhimbili Hospital, and seeing the horrible state it was in, he ordered over 200 million shillings marked for “parliament parties” be used to pay for beds for people lying on the floor and sharing beds.

A few days later 300 beds were delivered. He dismissed the governing board and got a new team in place, and within days the broken MRI was fixed. He also pared down his inauguration party from $100,000 to $7,000 and sent the extra money to the hospital.

3. Three days into his term, Magufuli announced a ban on all foreign travel by government officials. They have been instructed to instead make regular visits to rural areas to learn and help solve problems facing everyday Tanzanians. All tasks that required officials to travel abroad would instead be done by high commissioners and ambassadors who are already in place.

4. He has restricted all first¬ and business class travel to government officials, except the president, vice¬president and prime minister.

5. There will be no more workshops and seminars in expensive hotels when there are so many ministry board rooms available.

6. He suspended the Tanzania Revenue Authority’s chief and other officials pending investigations after a visit by Prime Minister Kassim Majaliwa to the port of Dar es Salaam found 350 containers listed in its books were missing.

7. When he had to travel 600km to Dodoma, from Dar, to officially open parliament last week, he didn’t order a private jet – instead, he chose to drive.

8. At the National Assembly in Dodoma last week he clearly sent out the message that it will not be business as usual under his leadership.

9. He promised to cut public spending, fight corruption and enhance accountability in public service. He said it is time for Tanzanians to walk the talk.

10. Magufuli reportedly told parliamentary leaders that the people of Tanzania want him to solve their problems and not make speeches.

How I wish we could learn from this leader. We must understand that there is a lot to do with very minimal resources. The government cannot bre broke, yet they still indulge in same activities we criticized with the previous administration.

This is supposed to be a government of change. A positive change that will bring hope to the masses and not the masters.

Hw I wish dat duara Nomad can learn frm dis man

Did their special assistant to the prime minister on media and publicity tell you this? If not, it is false acording to APC's terms of governance.

But the dullard is too proud and too old to learn this presidents ways.

Analysis that lacks insight. All nations are not the same and requires different approaches.

SO THEM GET THEIR OWN OBIANO.

He didn't do nothing!


I supported Buhari before he got in, but the dude has proved to be a wasteful spender himself.
Look at Magufuli, I did not hear him call on EGYPT, QATAR, SAUDI ARABIA and The UNITED STATES.
He looked within TANZANIA and worked with what he had, this is a man that did push ups at his old age.
HE PERSONALLY VISITED HOSPITALS, STOPPED SPENDING AND EVEN BANNED ALLOWANCES.
This guy should buy Nigeria please, when he has reformed us he can take us back.


All Buhari knows is his weekly sacks and daily travels.
No plan whatsoever.
They say we cannot work without budget?
HAS MAGUFULI USED ANY BUDGET FOR ALL THIS GOOD WORKS

They say they are trying to catch corrupt guys, is EFCC the only government agency?
All they do is make promises, SACK EVERYBODY AND LET US START AFRESH.
WHAT FVCKERY IS THIS SH1T?


Buy naija to save naira?
Get the manufacturers to increase quality and quantity!
SACK ALL HEADS OF REDUNDANT AGENCIES AND REPLACE THEM WITH MEN OF GOOD STANDING

ALL the allowances for the House of Reps should be stopped.
They already have their salaries.
NO MORE PRIVATE JETS.
NO MORE BUSINESS CLASS, we mean BUSINESS now.

Appoint people to check those who are checking our finances.

Increase the amount going to agriculture.
STOP WASTEFUL SPENDING,
NO MORE FOOD FOR ANYBODY.
WORK, WORK WORK.


forgive my typo, but the article below got me so angry I might have forgotten how to type.

This guy is trying abeg.

Nigeria shouldn't be compared with any country, when buhari entered, the treasury was virtualy empty, he has saved over 2 trillion with the treasury single account, he reduced the number of presidential fleets of jets, he has embarked on many projects, the price of drilling one barrel of oil is 35 dollars and since he entered, the selling price of oil is on or less than 35 dollars, at a point it was even 24 dollars, and yet still we are still living happily
