    PRESIDENT KIKWETES BRUTAL KILLING OF INNOCENT CIVILIANS AND

    OPPRESSION OF DEMOCRACY

    President Jakaya Kikwete of Tanzania and his Government are silently reigning terror on Tanzania citizens and

    journalists. Mr. Kikwete a Washington darling supposedly, has turned to be a dictatordestroying countrys little

    democratic gains. He has turned to be a murderer of innocent civilians by using Tanzania Police and Intelligence

    Services. Kikwetes and CCMs headache has been the opposition party CHADEMA and its leader Dr. Wilbroad

    Slaa.

    The Government has gone to higher heights of threatening and kidnapping of medical doctors who simply

    demand better pay and better working conditions. All these brutalities are carried by the State Agents (Tanzania

    intelligence Services) along with the police under direct instructions from President Kikwete and his ruling party

    CCM, that receives hundreds of millions from the US government in the form of foreign aid. Kikwetes is extremely

    corrupt and inept in its administration. The ruling party leaders have stashed hundreds of millions of dollars in

    offshore accounts while hospitals have no medicine. Despite the damning evidence against the corruption

    kingpins, the president has kept mum

    Andrew Chenge, a member of Kikwete inner circle, was mentioned in a British Serious Fraud Office investigation

    on the BAE Rada Scandal on corruption; keeping millions in Jersey accounts. Unfortunately president has

    shielded him against prosecution. The president himself is implicated in numerous corruption scandals along withhis Son Ridhiwani Kikwete implicated in scandal after scandal. The wikileaks report revealed how president

    Kikwete was bribed by anArab Investorwho wanted to invest in tourism sector

    The president owned Richmond, and Dowans ghost power companies which keeps on emerging with new names

    are stealing billions from Tanzania taxpayers. Outlaw nations such as Iran; Pakistanis drug dealers and money

    launderers; Somali Pirates have all found a new East African Friend. Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete. President Kikwete

    was very privy of the Iranian shipping tankers registration, because he received the Iran vice president a few

    weeks before the tankers were registered in Tanzania.

    Ordinary Citizen under police torture for peaceful demonstration. This is normal for Tanzanians under ruthless

    Kikwetes regime

    Currently, a number of Tanzania Intelligence agents along with CCM activists are in Iran being trained on how to

    disrupt elections on the pretext of religious tensions in 2015. All these are paid for by Iran including construction of

    multiple mosques in Tanzania. Kikwetes main goal is to keep his party CCM in power to protect his vast financial

    interests acquired through corruption. Iranians also discussed with Kikwete on how to obtain Uranium which

    MASSIVE CORRUTION AND SWISS BANK ACCOUNTS:

    While president Kikwete is trotting the world begging for foreign AID, ordinary citizens do not benefit from the

    money obtained from other countries. Kikwete and his cronies, instead of investing on domestic projects, Kikwete

    and his friends are diverting the funds to Swiss Bank Accounts. Currently, hundreds of millions of dollars have

    been stashed in Switzerland, Jersey Island in the UK etc. Despite the fact that, some of the countries corruption

    kingpins have been named, none has so far been prosecuted despite the staggering evidence. Ruling party CCM,

    and Mr. Kikwete are Shielding the culprits.

    Tanzania is actually one of the richest countries in Africa. Unfortunately, countries wealth is being enjoyed by a

    handful few. Despite the countrys massive wealth, those in power are SELLING THE COUNTRYS at a throw

    away price. Live animals were transported from Serengeti to QATAR

    QATARI military Jet in Kilimanjaro Airport to pick live animals destined for QATAR in UAE. The government that

    gives away its wealth has no right to the American and western governments taxpayers money

    BAE's secret $12m payout in African deal

    David Leighin Dar es Salaam andRob Evans The Guardian, Sunday 14 January 2007

    The UK's biggest arms supplier secretly paid a $12m commission into a Swiss account in a deal which led to Tanzania, one ofthe world's poorest countries, buying a controversial military radar system. A Tanzanian middleman, who has a long-standingrelationship with military and government figures, has admitted that the sum was covertly moved to a Swiss account by BAE

    Systems, which is under investigation by the Serious Fraud Office.

    The back-door payment represented 30% of the contract value. The east African state had to borrow to finance the deal, whichcritics said was unnecessary and overpriced.Tony Blair supported the 2002 sale but former cabinet minister Clare Short saysshe and the chancellor, Gordon Brown, opposed it. The SFO, which was recently forced to abandon its investigation intocommissions paid on a massive arms contract with Saudi Arabia, is now focusing its attention on Tanzania.Yesterday'sadmissions by the Tanzanian middleman, Sailesh Vithlani, led Ms Short to call for BAE's prosecution if the allegations wereproved. She said the prime minister had been personally responsible for forcing the licence for the Tanzania deal through thecabinet.

    "No 10 insisted on letting this go ahead, when it stank," she said. "It was always obvious that this useless project wascorrupt."In Dar es Salaam, Mr Vithlani's business partner, Tanil Somaiya, told the Guardian that British police had alreadyflown out to trace and interview both men as potential witnesses. He said BAE had made two parallel arrangements with themiddlemen. In the first, a conventional agency agreement was signed. Under this, 1% commission was to be paid if the $40m

    radar deal went through, to a Tanzania-registered firm, Merlin International Ltd.

    Mr Vithlani was the majority shareholder in Merlin, Mr Somaiya said, while he had a small token interest himself. BAE paid$400,000 down this route in stage payments, Mr Somaiya said, as the radar equipment was delivered. But under a second,more unusual agreement, BAE's secretly owned offshore company Red Diamond deposited another $12m, representing 30%of the contract price, in Switzerland. That money was under the personal control of Mr Vithlani, Mr Somaiya said, and this hadbeen admitted to UK police.

    When asked about the BAE money, Mr Vithlani told the Guardian he had made no disbursements from the Swiss cash topublic officials "in Tanzania". Asked if he had disbursed any of the $12m to third parties outside of Tanzania, he declined tocomment. "When the UK police travelled to Tanzania, we met them at their request and answered all their questions," he said.Mr Vithlani acted as agent not only on the radar deal but also in the 2002 purchase from the US of a top-of-the-rangeGulfstream official jet for the then Tanzanian president, Benjamin Mkapa, at a cost of more than $40m. When asked if hewould allow British police to inspect all the transactions on his Swiss account, he declined to comment.

    In the secretive world of international arms deals, a commission of 1% to local agents would generally be regarded aslegitimate. The government's export credit agency, the Export Credits Guarantee Department, has guidelines under which a"commission" of more than 5-10% is automatically regarded as questionable. BAE System's payment of as much as 30%,coupled with the use of a Swiss bank account and apparent double sets of agency agreements, would normally arousesuspicions of possible bribery, investigators say. Police sources in Tanzania said the agreement to use Mr Vithlani as an agenthad been signed off by the then chairman of BAE, Sir Dick Evans. Sir Dick, who has been at the centre of many of the armsdeals under investigation, has already been interviewed by the Serious Fraud Office during their two-year inquiry.

    BAE Systems were yesterday asked why they had made a 30% payment to Mr Vithlani's Swiss account. The company refusedto answer, saying: "We will not be commenting on any point of substance. This cannot of course be taken as any kind ofadmission." The SFO also refused to discuss their investigation. The president of Tanzania, Jakaya Kikwete, is due in Londontoday to speak at a meeting with Hilary Benn, the international development secretary, on efforts to overcome corruption inTanzania.

    Later this week, the UK is expected to have to defend its actions over BAE at a meeting of the anti-bribery group of the OECDin Paris. Norman Lamb, a Liberal Democrat frontbencher and critic of the deal, said: "It was obvious at the time that this dealdid not stack up, but Blair still forced it through, against the better judgment of his colleagues. It was not as if he was not

    warned at the time." http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2007/jan/15/bae.armstrade

    EAC residents stash

    $1.3bn in Swiss accounts

    Wednesday, 27 June 2012 08:48

    By Mwaura Kimani, The Political Platform Correspondent

    Residents of the East Africa Community have more money stashed away in Swiss banks than those from any other region inAfrica, a new report reveals. The Swiss National Bank (SNB), the central bank of Switzerland, in its latest report on thecountrys banking sector states that the EAC countries of Burundi, Rwanda, Uganda, Tanzania and Kenya have at least $1.3billion in the country. Kenya tops the list with $857 million followed by Tanzania ($178 million), Uganda ($159 million), Rwanda($29.7 million and Burundi ($16.7 million). While the cash-detailed by SNB as foreign liabilities held by Swiss banks in 2011-isnot necessarily listed as dirty money, EAC countries have been grappling with capital flight, with individuals said to have set upcompanies and accounts in tax havens. Kenyas Finance minister Robinson Githae hinted the government would investigatethe ownership of these accounts. Treasury has no idea of the source, the owners and how the money ended up there, MrGithae told The EastAfrican.

    Although some could belong to investors doing businesses in foreign currencies, I dont understand why someone would puttheir money outside when it is allowed to operate dollar accounts in Kenya. Anti -graft activists say huge unreported flows ofmoney are leaving the EAC countries every year, ending up in rich countries or tax havens, denying nations desperatelyneeded tax revenues. They argue that tracing, freezing, confiscation and repatriation of stolen assets is a cumbersomeprocess because of differences in legal systems, the high costs of co-ordinating investigations, inadequate international co-

    operation and bank secrecy laws. Most of these funds are dirty money and the accounts have been growing with time. It is abig task for governments to find out the sources of these funds and the owners, said John Githongo, a Nairobi based anti -corruption campaigner. The incidence of money being stashed abroad usually rises around elections, so it is expectedKenyas share will grow in the remaining part of the year, said Mr Githongo, a former ethics and governance permanentsecretary. Contrary to popular belief, only a small share, three to five per cent, of illicit capital flight stems from corruption, a2011 report dubbed Bringing The Billions Back said.

    Instead, almost two-thirds originates from multinational companies evading tax, and one-third is a result of criminal activitiessuch as trade in humans, drugs and weapons, said the report authored by Dr Attiya Waris, a lecturer at the Sch ool of Law atthe University of Nairobi and Kristina Frberg, a political scientist at Forum Syd in Sweden. Illicit capital flight has severeconsequences for developing countries-it cancels investment, undermines trade, hurts competition, worsens income gaps anddrains hard-currency reserves, says the report.

    Its authors estimate that in 2008, Tanzania topped the list of illicit capital flight with over $5.1 billion followed by Uganda ($4.8

    billion), Rwanda ($3.3 billion), Kenya ($2.6 billion) and Burundi ($2 billion). According to a report from Global FinancialIntegrity, the average of illicit outflows per year from Kenya during 2002-2006 is estimated at $686 million. In Tanzania, thereport estimates revenue lost through a combination of tax exemptions and illicit trade involving foreign countries andmultinationals amounts to over $1.2 billion a year. The SNB figures do not include money that individuals may hold in others names or that is managed by wealth funds.

    Global pressure has been rising on Switzerland to ask its banks to share information about their clients with foreigngovernments. It is suspected that foreigners holding illicit wealth in Swiss banks may be moving their funds for fear of beingexposed due to growing scrutiny. Although Swiss banks policy of secrecy and customer protection allows for such money tobe paid in, Switzerland has adopted what is arguably the worlds toughest law for repatriating the ill-gotten gains of corruptpoliticians to the people of those countries, allowing the country to return potentially corrupt assets more easily to where theybelong.

    The news about the money stashed in foreign accounts comes as the EAC countries battle budget deficits that have seen

    them go on a borrowing spree. Kenyas public debt currently stands at 48.6 per cent of GDP, having marginally declined fromthe 48.8 per cent recorded in 2011. Uganda plans to borrow at least Ush2.6 trillion ($1 billion) this year, while Rwandas to talexternal debt (including guaranteed debt) is projected to rise to $1.3 billion in 2012 (19.1 per cent of GDP).As of March 2012, Tanzanias debt stood at Sh20 trillion ($12.8 billion). Most of the billions stashed away in foreign accoun tsby influential businessmen and powerful politicians are suspected to be proceeds of defence and security-related contractsand payments of fake debts.

    Stephen Kaboyo managing director, Alpha Capital Partners said the sums of money mentioned in that report are unlikely tohave originated from Uganda. It is extremely difficult to wire large amounts of money to foreign accounts because ofincreased scrutiny by local banks. Therefore, the bulk of that money could have been generated by payments from dirty deals done between locals and foreign partners in overseas locations, he said.

    RHINO AND ELEPHANT KILLING

    CNN reportand other media outlets carried a report of Elephant tasks intercepted in Hongkong. The origin of the

    Tusks was believed to be East Africa. Yes Indeed, the tusks came from Tanzania. Abdurrahman Kinana, a former

    cabinet minister and the current secretary general of the ruling CCM was known in Tanzania to be the man

    behind the Rhino and Elephants killing. Indeed, he was the man behind the shipment. The man claimed that, his

    company shipped the tusks; however, he was not the owner of the consignment and did not know the content of

    the shipment. Funny enough, weeks later, the man believed to the Rhino killer, was awarded CCM-ruling Party

    Secretary. This means therefore, that the top persons in the government shipped the tusks

    Mr. Kinana, ruling party CCM secretary general admitted owning the shipping company but denied owning the

    consignment. He is the politician believed to be behind the Rhino and Elephant Killing. The report in Swahili is

    accusing him of being behind the killing of Rhinos and elephants in Tanzania. He is also accused of being the link

    between Somali Pirates in Tanzania.Kinana Denies owning the Ivory intercepted in Hong-Kong

    In the Kisarawe region of Tanzania, more than 19,000 acres of land is being used for a biofuel plantation

    While Tanzanians are dying of Starvation, the country leadership are selling the land to the Chinese and Arabs to

    grow food for their own people. They even evict their citizens. Tanzania Prime minister Mizengo Pinga led the

    way by signing a very controversial deal to Agrisol Energy, displacing 160,000 people. This story was investigated

    Halima Weli and her children have lost land to a biofuels plantation that has acquired 8,000 hectares of land in the

    Kisarawe region of Tanzania. Land has been grabbed with little or no compensation resulting in a loss of

    livelihood. Residents have lost access to water sources as well as the grave-sites of ancestors. Public amenities

    including schools, dispensaries and wells, promised as part of a compensation package for local residents, have

    not materialized.. SourceActionaid

    Religious Tensions

    Tanzania has been a relatively peaceful country. Religious differences were not part of the society. Recently,

    Kikwetes government feeling cornered by its ineptness, corruption, it started using intelligence services to coerce

    religious tensions in the country. Muslims are favored. Their demonstrations are mostly protected by the police.

    Soon or later, these tensions will spill out and Tanzania will fall into a bloodbath

    Islamic Demonstrations against Christians are normally accorded state protection

    Muslim protected by Kikwete (a muslim) regime (CCM) demonstrating against Catholics and Christians.

    by the international organizations propping the country financially. United States should STOP President Wastage
