That is exactly what makes TZ model untested. Democracy tend to accentuate tribal or racial difference because politicians find it easy to win based on emotions/lies/propaganda than on issues. The more kenya became democratic - the more tribal it got. In days of KANU being the mama na baba - tribal difference were somewhat buried. That could be the case with TZ. They need to allow REAL democracy to thrive. Otherwise right now CCM has stunted basically everything - tribalism is stunted - and so is progress & advancement. Even the average Tanzania is stunted.

Kenya should continue on the path to real democracy - while working on very strict laws to disallow tribalism. We need to figure out the thin-line btw hate speech and free speech - and takes will be an ongoing struggle. Definitely some of tribal talk is so obviously hateful - there is really no need for debate - but to throw culprit in prison. Unfortunately our judiciary has never helped - choosing to behave like they are alien in the country - no single politician as we speak has been jailed for inciting tribal hate - how is that even possible?

tlann:
does abuja have light rail system

tlann:
the very question that bothers me why is tz not a strong economy they have everything to make them look like south africa but what is the problem

Kazikazi:
Your idea that democracy tends to accelerate tribal or racial device is unfounded. There are many democratic nations who are not tribalists. For instance,our Tanzania's good neighbors from Zambia don't have issues of tribalism as Kenya although Zambia is more democratic. Mauritius too are a similar case.Canada too.
The only thing democracy does is to bring into the open those stuffs which were carpeted.In this sense your tribalism will come out once democracy is allowed.So,in our Tz case it will be impossible for democracy to ignite tribalism since it doesn't exist.

Our Tz model have been tested.In each elections we held,most opposition parties complain about our union structures and poverty,not tribalism! It means these are real issues to resolve,not tribalism.

City Hall is so dumb. Those guys cant plan anything. That single decision had a cascade of effects. Nairobians, knowing there will be no nganyas took out their army of private cars and now today Nairobi was looking like China. Total disaster. You couldnt move an inch for sometimes up to an hr. Either they build tramways or let people use nganyas all the way to CBD. Certainly Im not the only one who finds leaders so foolish. I know we are many.

Its not just Tanzania but most of our nations shouldn't be where they are currently. We should be in the levels of Malaysia, Singapore or South Sudan.Kenya,Tz,Naija or Ghana were ahead of those nations economically in the 60's.But what happened today? Kenya just received food aid from South Korea!

Its not all about natural resources. Those three nations I mentioned don't have a huge natural resources (Malaysia,south Korea,Singapore). But,they are ahead.

Kenyans shouldn't jump and point fingers at Tz while they have a log in their eyes.Development can be achieved weather you have natural resources or not.Yes Tz don't do well in managing the natural resources. Most of minerals in Tz are still untapped. Over 90% of TZ minerals are still underground. A real question should be.."why Tz doesn't extracts the huge mineral deposits it has"??

And we shouldn't avoid asking, why doesn't kenya use freshwater resources it have for irrigation in Turkana? Why is Kenya poor? Why does Kenya imports fishes from China while it can have them at home? Why does Kenya imports electricity from Uganda while it can generate it at home?

fool, search for abuja light rail on YouTube.
It is first rapid transit in the country and in Western Africa and second such system in sub-saharan Africa (after Addis Ababa Light Rail).(would have been the first in Africa if not because of the stupid and criminals previous administration )..but thank God we now have component leader.

kevomtaani:



That is called diversionary tactics. You've been asked why is Tanzania not developed. In Kenya we have issues of tribalism, corruption and unfavourable weather. Tanzania doesn't how comes their economy is a measly 56$bn to serve a population of nearly 60million people. Every time you are asked this question your answer is in Kenya there's hunger despite you being shown Tanzania is more malnourished.
Now answer this question correct and clear how comes Tanzania a country where peace has reigned since independence, doesn't have corruption issues, has vast agricultural land doesn't have tribal strife has such a small GDP the size of Kenya's capital, is lower than Kenya in GDP, GNI, HFI, HDI and PPP. You cannot escape by assigning blame to other African countries. Answer it clear and correct for once

Kur17:


But today...

What do you think about the banning of PSVs from CBD...?

I liked it but I didn't expect this kind of results but hopefully with time it'll be positive

kikuyu1:


Not a perfect solution;ideally we'd have light rail and MBRT only. IIRC, back in 2007 then transmin Mwakwere said 14 seaters will be banned but it was an election year. Later the gov reminded everyone they were serious til 2014 when Uhuru repealed the decision.

remove kenya CBD and the rest are full blown slums.

rvp20183:
You don't just declare yourself (city) the best. There are people whose job is to do that - and none so far has ever suggested Abuja is anything but one of the worst cities in Africa. Nairobi is regularly ranked highly after Joburg & Capetown - in Sub-Sahara Africa.

You they mind them Nairobi is a big slum D they're not even ashamed, Comparing there shitthol capital, Nairobi with Lagos? They already know that Abuja is the father of Nairoshitt

jaycent:
Keep decieving your self? Abuja is not Nairobi mates keep putting hope on foolish blogers

kevomtaani:



As usual you are wrong zambia more democratic than Kenya. Zambia not tribal. It's amazing how little tanzanians know about their own country and they think they know their neighbours. Smh. Zambian opposition leader was Locked up just last year. Zambia has joined your ccm tactics of intimidation to anyone who has a contradictive opinion. Kenya is very free check the human freedom index boy.

It hurts me to see that while other nations are creating cleaner environment and more suitable atmosphere for their citizens to live, we in Nigeria don’t even care, we are even damaging our environments.
Presently Abuja is one of the dirtiest city in Africa. Lagos is turning into a refuse dump. Black soot is holding Port harcourt to ransom. Other Nigerian cities are nothing to write home about. Nigeria and Nigerians are dirty. We just need to create and maintain a cleaner environment.

eleojo23:
Nigeria is dirty, period!
At least I have seen every region of Nigeria apart from the North East so I can conclude that the entire country is littered with filth!

Giant of Africa indeed

eleojo23:

Isn't it true that there is a lot of filth in Nigeria?

We throw things on the ground even when there is a waste bin nearby.

Abuja may not be the dirtiest as stated in the post but it is not entirely clean either...it's only the central area that is a bit clean, the suburbs are dirty.

Do we need to talk about Lagos? The recent cries on social media is your answer..

We have to learn to keep our environment clean. It doesn't take much to do that.

Yes currently Zambia have been dropped in democracy index.What I tried to pinpoint is Zambia was more democratic than Kenya in pre_Lungu administration. And in all those pre Lungu days we never saw incidences of tribalism. Even Chiluba who was from opposition managed to won elections against a long serving president Kaunda without using a tribal cards! It was the same way when Mwanawasa or Banda's victories. No tribalists issues were raised.
All those elections were done democratically. But when the same democracy applied in Kenya,the ugly violent tribalism takes souls.

rvp20183:
Precisely. The last time he attempted to explain - he ended up with bad governance & corruption - but we know in terms of scale - they are not that bad in those. He doesn't want to say the truth. Ujamaa made them lazy, jealous and suspicion of any individual effort. That is elephant in the house. Communism.

rvp20183:
I think also homogeneity matters - if a country is 90% bantu like TZ & Zambia & Most of SADC- that is different from Kenya or Nigeria.

Kazikazi:
You're mistaken.China was a communist state,Russia too.Poland also so as Vietnam.Are they as poor like the capitalist Kenya? Actually the Chinese who were more communists than Tanzania are more developed than your capitalist Kenya. Recently they gave you food aid.

Blaming Tanzania's socialism in this 2018 is foolish. There are many African nations who are extremely poor than Tz but were not in socialism. Kenya with its starvation issues never had socialism. Those Kenyans who starved to death weren't in a socialism. Why are Kenyans quick to blame Tz on socialism while they buried souls due to lack of a meal?

Tanzania's economy grows faster than Kenya.Will you still blame socialism?

Kenya buried their souls for lack of food due to bad governance. Kenya is poor due to bad governance.Tanzania doesn't utilize fully its resources due to bad governance. Many African countries are where they are due to bad governance. Corruption is a part of bad governance.

Kazikazi:
Do you know what are you saying? Tanzania is not 90% Bantus.Mauritius is not 90% Bantus.Namibia too.Comoroes too.

Don't shifts goalposts. Weather you are 90% Bantus or less it doesn't matter.The issue is how can you have cohesion among yourselves.

Kazikazi:


And we shouldn't avoid asking, why doesn't kenya use freshwater resources it have for irrigation in Turkana?
https://www.nation.co.ke/news/falling-water-levels-lake-turkana-ethiopia-food-supplies/1056-3813220-1248xvs/index.html
Data from the US Department of Agriculture shows a drop of about 1.5 metres in Lake Turkana's water levels due to development of dams in Ethiopia are threatening food supplies in a part of Kenya. Water that previously flowed unimpeded into Lake Turkana is being held behind the dam.
The gulf is a key source of fish for Kenya's Turkana people, HRW noted.
