EDITORIAL: TZ is not a monarchy, so give all a chance in polls

>It isn’t surprising that, as the 2015 General Election tempo builds up, rough play is emerging. It is like some among us are bent on proving—as it oft said—that politics is a dirty game. Electioneering is a component of politics in which crooked conduct comes to the fore as individuals vie for political posts that are up for grabs from the grassroots to the national level.

EDITORIAL: To CA members: give the people what they want

>Members of the Constituent Assembly (MCAs) want to maintain the clause in the Constitution that forbids a petition against the winner of the presidential vote. This is truly shocking. What the MCAs are proposing is that once the winner of the presidential votes is announced, no one has the constitutional right to appeal.

It is one of the reasons why suicide is considered sinful in some cultures where the “culprit” is denied befitting funeral. One of the latest reported cases in Tanzania relates to 25-year-old Charles Bruna, a resident of Kitunguru Village, in Mara Region’s Serengeti District.
