Election Violence in Zanzibar – Ongoing Risk of Violence in Zanzibar 15 March 2011
Country Advice Tanzania Tanzania – TZA38321 – Revolutionary State Party (CCM) – Civic United Front (CUF) – Election violence in Zanzibar – Ongoing risk of violence in Zanzibar 15 March 2011 1. Please provide a background of the major political parties in Tanzania focusing on the party in power and the CUF. The United Republic of Tanzania was formed in 1964 as a union between mainland Tanganyika and the islands of Unguja and Pemba, which together comprise Zanzibar. Since 1977, it has been ruled by the Revolutionary State Party (Chama Cha Mapinduzi or CCM). In 1992 the government legislated for multiparty democracy, and the country is now a presidential democratic republic with a multiparty system. The first multiparty national elections were held in 1995, and concurrent presidential and parliamentary elections have since been held every 5 years. The CCM has won all elections to date. The CUF, founded in 1991, constituted the main opposition party following the 1995 multiparty elections.1 At the most recent elections in October 2010, the CCM‟s Jakaua Kikwete was re-elected President with 61.7% of the vote (as compared to 80% of the vote in 2005) and the CCM secured almost 80% of the seats. Most of the opposition votes went to the Chadema party, which displaced the Civic United Front (CUF) for the first time as the official opposition. The opposition leader is Chadema‟s Chairman, Freeman Mbowe. Chadema‟s presidential candidate, Willibrod Slaa, took 27% of the vote, while CUF‟s Ibrahim Lipumba received 8%.2 Notwithstanding the CCM‟s election success, the BBC reports that Kikwete‟s “political legitimacy has been seen by some to have been somewhat dented in the 2010 elections”, given the decline in his percent of the vote, and a total election turnout of only 42%, down from 72% in 2005. -

India-Tanzania Bilateral Relations
INDIA-TANZANIA BILATERAL RELATIONS Tanzania and India have enjoyed traditionally close, friendly and co-operative relations. From the 1960s to the 1980s, the political relationship involved shared commitments to anti-colonialism, non-alignment as well as South-South Cooperation and close cooperation in international fora. The then President of Tanzania (Mwalimu) Dr. Julius Nyerere was held in high esteem in India; he was conferred the Jawaharlal Nehru Award for International Understanding for 1974, and the International Gandhi Peace Prize for 1995. In the post-Cold War period, India and Tanzania both initiated economic reform programmes around the same time alongside developing external relations aimed at broader international political and economic relations, developing international business linkages and inward foreign investment. In recent years, India-Tanzania ties have evolved into a modern and pragmatic relationship with sound political understanding, diversified economic engagement, people to people contacts in the field of education & healthcare, and development partnership in capacity building training, concessional credit lines and grant projects. The High Commission of India in Dar es Salaam has been operating since November 19, 1961 and the Consulate General of India in Zanzibar was set up on October 23, 1974. Recent high-level visits Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi paid a State Visit to Tanzania from 9-10 July 2016. He met the President of Tanzania, Dr. John Pombe Joseph Magufuli for bilateral talks after a ceremonial -

My Fellow Citizens, We are today marking 40 years of our independence, the independence of Tanzania Mainland, then known as Tanganyika. We have just seen some of the Tanzanians who were born at the time of our independence. They are adults now. But they have no first hand experience of what it was like to live under colonialism. They only read about it, or are informed by those who lived through that experience. On a day like this, therefore, we need to remind ourselves of what our independence really means. -

Did They Perform? Assessing fi Ve Years of Bunge 2005-2010
Policy Brief: TZ.11/2010E Did they perform? Assessing fi ve years of Bunge 2005-2010 1. Introducti on On July 16th 2010, following the completi on of the 20th session of the Bunge, the President of Tanzania dissolved the 9th Parliament. This event marked the end of the term for Members of Parliament who were elected during the 2005 general electi ons. Now that the last session has been completed it allows us to look back and to consider how MPs performed during their tenure. Did they parti cipate acti vely and represent their consti tuencies by asking questi ons and making interventi ons, or were they silent backbenchers? The Bunge is the Supreme Legislature of Tanzania. The Bunge grants money for running the administrati on and oversees government programs and plans. The Bunge oversees the acti ons of the Executi ve and serves as watchdog to ensure that government is accountable to its citi zens. To achieve all this, Members of Parliament pass laws, authorize taxati on and scruti nize government policies including proposal for expenditure; and debate major issues of the day. For the Bunge to eff ecti vely carry out its oversight role, acti ve parti cipati on by Members of Parliament is criti cal. MPs can be acti ve by making three kinds of interventi ons: they can ask basic questi ons, they can ask supplementary questi ons and they can make contributi ons during debates. This brief follows earlier briefs, the last of which was released in August 2010. It presents seven facts on the performance of MPs, including rati ng who were the most acti ve and least acti ve MPs. -
