Kwenye mjadala wa Wanazuoni mnamo mwaka 2009 kuhusuWhy didn't Nyerere groom good leaders?niliwahi kuandika maneno yafuatayo: "WhenNyererewasasked thatquestion, I am told, he respondedby saying that he was unlucky, implying that two people in particularly that he groomed died prematurely: [Hussein Ramadhani]Shekilango (from whom we get the nameof that road in Dar)andEdward Moringe Sokoine. Another person that he groomed but,due to malicious campaigns, never becameour President (The President who never was as Zitto Kabwe calls him) is Dr. SalimAhmed Salim. Now we are struggling with the legacy of a president Nyerere 'chose' for us in 1995butif welook at what was inhis mind as his 1995 bookOur Leadership and the Destiny of Tanzaniareveals, we will realize that his was a genuine attempt to make sure that the other folks that he groomed to be good leaders - and turned bad according to his standards - do not take over.
Ningependa kuwakumbusha mambo machache: mosi, mgogoro wa kurithishana madaraka Zanzibar, ambapo Mh. Gharib Bilali aliona kuwa sasa ilikuwa zamu yake. Kikwete alifanikiwa kumweka Dr. Shein Zanzibar. Pia, mwaka 2010 katika mchakato wa kumchagua Spika wa Bunge, Rais Kikwete aliwashtua watu na chaguo lake. Kuna baadhi ya wanasiasa hawajui walipigwa na kitu gani.
