Swahili to English (via Google Translate, first two paragraphs:

KWA zaidi ya awamu 44 za urais wa taifa kubwa duniani la Marekani, mtu mwenye asili ya nje ya nchi hiyo hakuwa na nafasi ya kuongoza, aidha kutokana na ubaguzi wa rangi na asili au imani kwamba rais asiyekuwa Mmarekani, hana uwezo wa kuliongoza taifa hilo katika misingi ya kulinda maslahi ya kudumu ya taifa hilo.

“FOR more than a phase 44 of the presidency of a great nation on earth the U.S., having origin outside the country does not have a chance to lead, either because of racism and nature or belief that the president does not become an American, has no ability to lead the nation in terms of protecting the interests of a lasting state.”

Lakini kutokana na mabadiliko ya kisiasa duniani na kukomaa kwa demokrasia ya nchi hiyo, utamaduni huo ulivunjwa na Seneta mwenye asili ya Afrika ya Mashariki, Mkenya, Barack Abdallah Husein Obama baada ya kushinda na kuapishwa rasmi kuwa raisi wa Ikulu ya ‘White House’ Januari 20, 2009 katika jiji la Washington, D.C nchini Marekani.

“But due to changes in the political world and the maturity of democracy in the country, the culture was pulled by Senator nature of East Africa, Kenya, Barack Abdallah Husein Obama after winning and published officially become president of the White House ‘White House’ January 20 , 2009 in the city of Washington, DC in the United States.”

The Citizen (Dar es Salaam)
Tanzania: Zanzibar Nomination - the Shein Puzzle

9 July 2010

The Zanzibar CCM presidential nomination race continued to hot up yesterday, with puzzling claims emerging from Dodoma, which suggested that Vice-President Mohamed Shein might have withdrawn from the contest.

[…]

Speaking to The Citizen, former Zanzibar Attorney General Hamid Mbwezeleni said: “Dr Shein is qualified to contest any elective post but he can’t vote in Zanzibar. Interestingly, in recent days I have heard mischievous interpretations of the constitutional articles, indicating that he is eligible to run for the presidency. But my question is: Does he retain this right after he willingly refused to register as a voter in Zanzibar?” he asked.

[…]

For his part, a lecturer at the University of Dar es Salaam’s School of Journalism and Mass Communication (SJMC), Mr Ayub Rioba, said that if it was true that Dr Shein had withdrawn after discussions on the legal implications of his candidature, then that was a positive sign.

“They will have noted the anomaly sooner than later and for CCM to advise Dr Shein to withdraw is a positive development and a sign of political maturity and democracy in the country,” he said.

[…]


Political maturity and democracy. Heh.
