"Right
now flowing into the country difficult period, Parliament, the
judiciary and even the government exist 'under attack' (below) the one
who chooses to do whatever it becomes. Despite the situation, we know we will deal likewise.

described wherein the terror everyone knows, but with the situation, we
bear this and we are working, substantially we urge Tanzanians to
continue to support us in and out of Parliament," he said.

you suspected you are a terrorist and you end up in prison without
conviction as to clerics who are in prison.
"I
say that we have some qualms, until now most prisons are full of
clerics, and those who seem to disagree with the wishes of the masters. There our Sheikhs of Zanzibar which is now the third year there are no guarantees and the unknown fate of their case.
"We
are in a big dilemma, and we tell our brothers Lowassa even clerics who
come here for your invitation, are those who do not let yourselves to
this state of affairs," said Sheikh Bungo.
