KATIBA REVIEW SPECIAL: Why JK should dissolve Bunge prematurely

>One of the weaknesses of our current Constitution of 1977, which we thought it could be cured by ordaining new constitution is an inferiority of Parliament to the President who is the Head of the Executive branch. The Parliament is unnecessarily being placed under the feet of President to the point that latter can dissolve it when it acts contrary to his pleasure in legislating or passing national budget.

>Today every Tanzanian knows that education for his or her child is not a privilege, but a right, which must be given to the child without any excuses.

KATIBA REVIEW SPECIAL: How will referendum campaigns go?

>The constitution making process has so far passed through three main stages. The first one was the formation of the Constitutional Review Commission (CRC), whose one of its basic functions was to collect, analyse public views and then issue the first draft Constitution.

KATIBA REVIEW: Govt and CCM to share blame on Katiba issue

>What has been in controversy for several months about the referendum date now is clear. At last, what has been anticipated by the majority citizenry has been fulfilled – the referendum has indefinitely been put on hold.  Last year, President Jakaya Kikwete, while on a state visit to China, announced that the referendum day would be on April 30.  It was argued that the President’s mandate in setting a date for the referendum is given vide section 4 of the Referendum Act,...
