[wanabidii] Tanzanian Youth: Our Turn to Lead the Nation is Now

The Kilian Kamota's Call to All Tanzanian Youth: Our Turn to Lead the Nation is Now

By Kilian Kamota

The task is ours, the Tanzanian youth, to decide the future and the fate of our Nation. Our fathers, the first generation of leaders, have done their part; they fought political colonialism and afforded us the political independence. The time has come for them to pass on the torch to us, so we can fight for socio-economic independence. We must show up, accept the torch and lead our Nation into new horizons. The future of Tanzania is in our hands – the Tanzanian youth. This is the task we can not ignore; this is the task we can not pass to someone else. It is our task, it is our duty. The question is what are we going to do about it? Are we going to show up for this noble task? Are we going to report for duty? Or are we going to let our Nation stray into wilderness and chaos without leadership? Are we going to decide the fate of our own future or are we going to let few politicians decide our fate and our future?

Our fathers – the first generation of leaders – have grown old. Their actions and leadership can attest to that. The time has come for them to pass on the torch and for us to take the realm. Let us help them retire in peace as we take over the noble task of leading our nation.

Letter to the First Generation of Leaders – Good Bye and Good Luck

On behalf of all Tanzanian youths', i wish to express sincere gratitude to our fathers – the first generation of leaders – for all the hard work and dedication to our Nation. Your hard work and efforts is truly appreciated, it will not be forgotten and will not perish in vain. We will always cherish all that you were able [and not able] to achieve. And to that end, we want to wish you good health and good luck as you retire in peace. Please take on your new task of advising the new generation and raising grand children at home. Please retire in peace and watch us – your children – take on our new task of leading the Nation. You have educated us enough, you have prepared us enough and now we are telling you that we are ready to lead our Nation and take it into new horizons.

We salute you and bid you farewell – all Tanzanian workers and farmers of the 1960's, 70's, and 80's. Kwaherini, enyi viongozi, wakulima na wafanyakazi wote wazee Tanzania, tunawatakia kila la heri na mapumziko mema ya uzeeni!

Letter to the Tanzanian Youth – Please Report for Duty.

Kwenu vijana wote Tanzania – karibuni katika safu mpya ya uongozi wa Tanzania mpya.  Karibuni katika safu mpya ya wakulima na wafanyakazi wa Tanzania mpya.

On behalf of the new Tanzanian generation, I call upon all Tanzanian youths to report to work. Welcome to your new position, welcome to the future. This is not a political movement; it has nothing to do with politics, religion or tribes; it has nothing to do with party or political affiliation.  This is a National movement and  has everything to do with the future of our Nation. Regardless of party or political affiliation, all Tanzanian youth must assume leadership responsibility anywhere they are and start working today to lead our Nation towards new horizon. True leadership has nothing to do with ones level or title in the society. There are many individuals in the world who don't hold leadership position, yet they are providing leadership all the time, just as there are many others who hold leadership position, and yet they are not providing much leadership at all. let us provide the new leadership that is in dire need to transform our Nation.

Serious time's calls for serious measures. We must have a sense of urgency and seriousness on the matters dear to our hearts. We must united together and forgo our religion and political affiliation and work together to provide the leadership needed to resuscitate our nation.

How Do We Start the New Task of Leading Our Nation?

By revolutionizing our minds- The time has come for us to acquire a revolution in our mindset. A revolution that will enable us to see things
from a different perspective; a revolution that will enable us to have a new world view, a new intellectual framework, and a new paradigm from which to see both the current requirements for leading our Nation and the challenges of creating institutions capable of qualitative and transformational change in performance and service deliver

By educating ourselves in two fronts:

First by acquiring plenty of formal education [college and university education], civil education pertaining to our rights, our democracy, and our constitution etc,

Secondly, by developing ourselves intellectually and leadership-wise so we can assume the leadership positions at hand.

By educating others in two fronts:

First by educating and encouraging others to attain formal education because education still remains to be the key and the foundation of everything.

Secondly by mentoring others to become future leaders. We must understand how to and the importance of leadership succession plan – how to train, prepare and transform others into future managers and leaders

By becoming participative citizens in two fronts:

First, by responsibly participating in civil matters like elections. We must register to vote and vote responsibly.
Secondly, by seeking leadership positions in the coming elections so we can have representative and a voice in deciding about our fate and future.

By developing a culture of discipline in two fronts: first at home [i.e. in our lives and lifestyle] and secondly, at work [kwakuwa na nidhamu ya kazi, kuheshimu sheria na taratibu makazini, kuchukia rushwa, na kuwa wakweli]

There is a need to reform, reinvent, redesign, restructure and reorganize the Tanzanian government. There is a need for new systems and new ways of doing things. There is a need for a new leadership paradigm in Tanzania; a paradigm that will come with a new breed of leaders. Tanzania is approaching a defining moment in the Nation's history. The decisions that will be made in the near future will determine whether the country will gloriously evolve to greatness or stumble closer to crumble.

Asanteni

I remain, 
Truly Yours Muya Kamota!
