I should school this Makufuli on management. This makufuli will bankruppt TZ.Surely why is he blaming such a junior civil servant when he is always chairing the cabinet? He's practicing the worst form of management, what we call MBWA, i.e. Management By Wandering About. The people given the job are not doing their job, what do you want him to do? Sit back and say yeah as long I gave them the job, they should do it...

Then he asked about the lady who "lied" to him, he was told that she was transferred to another department. He asked the manager to fire her. "There are only two emotions in the market, hope & fear.

Even in your own home you don't ambush your house girl in the kitchen demanding answers. Rather you give her space to carry out her work and address any issues via mama watoto. Can you imagine the man of the house storming the kitchen and harrasing and firing the house girl over some appliance e.g. electric kettle that's not working or some overcooked ugali? #StupidMan

So the poor lady is now fired and her kids have to suffer just because this Makufuli fellow didn't give her the tools to do her job or rather failed to maintain the equipment? If anyone is to go home it must be Makufuli, not the spanner boys/girls whose tools the boss neglected and they fell into disrepair.

There were machines and they tried to lie to him. plus the assumption that stuff is scanned elsewhere is broken and i believe he rightly pointed it out. Hii ya "database" alikataa kuelezewa HOW THINGS WORK... yeye alikuja na how he thinks things should be done. Just because you are the President does not mean you know how everything works or is supposed to work... tulia ufunzwe!! All Mushrooms are edible! Some Mushroom are only edible ONCE!

If a function of government is broken then the buck eventually stops at the cabinet level.

I agree with you...what we have seen in this video is a government officer not able to answer a simple yes/no question. H.E. Pombe is asking the TRA guy at the back-office whether or not he would know if a vehicle passed the scanner without any scanning taking place only for the guy to fidget like someone sitting on a needle instead of saying NO there is no way of knowing... I hope H.E. Pombe follows up on this weaknesses and provides solution otherwise he might end up looking like a clown Dumb money becomes dumb only when it listens to smart money

There was someone on this forum who said the majority of wazua users are employees. This thread is proof of that. Maghafuli is the CEO of the country and he was elected with the mandate of changing how things are done. He also declared if anything goes wrong, its his fault. Now imagine the owner of a business, the telephone farmer who doesn't go to his farm because ati he's got his farm manager taking care of things. When he goes to the farm, he finds that the cow is sick. He then decides that since he has "checks and balances", he'll leave the sick cow to the manager. With a written warning since he has to follow another "procedure". Who owns a business here and pretends that they don't care about what's going on? Yes, on my chicken farm, I tend to know when gumboro is supposed to be administered and even do it together with the farm hands when I can. That is not micro management, that is good management. There is a problem with Tanzania and he's trying to fix it. His record is clear for everyone to see. Just take a trip between Nairobi and Arusha. Compare the road from Kitengela to Namamga and the road from Namanga to Arusha...Look at the roads he did when he was minister. Not a single pot hole. He used to go the roads with a stake then order the constructor to redo a huge section at their expense. You will keep quiet and let the guy do what he thinks is best. You should be busy deciding whom between Kidero and Sonko you should elect. That's the best we can do here. Wachaneni na wao na micro management. I wonder what this MBA is worth anymore in this country. It seems as long as you can pay the fees, you get the piece of paper. Thieves are not good people. Tumeelewana?

@alma has said it all. You see Kenyans are doomed. They focus outside even when their own house is in a mess to a point where people like Sonko stand on public address speak whatever they want about Presidency... and they brush it off saying: "It was just a huge dose of comic relief.."
