President Yoweri Museveni invited regional leaders for the regional summit on counter terrorism in Uganda to be addressed by Prime Minister Netanyahu. All leaders showed up except Tanzania and Burundi. For Burundi, i don’t blame him, his country is still unstable and he suffered a failed coup the last time he left the country. Even President Kiir showed up despite economic crisis in the country. Tanzanian President Magufuli didn’t turn up but sent his foreign minister as other heads of state from the region went there in Person. Since then the regional diplomatic circles have been debating why. Could it be that Tanzania was the only country President Netanyahu skipped on his regional visit. Has the recent warming of relations between UG-Tz cooled down. Of particular interest is the oil pipeline deal which it has now emerged that contrary to Tz promise to UG on Total commitment, it actually isn’t funding the project. Tz has yet to get alternative finance and its intention to borrow $7 Billion funds is not possible for any lender under Tz junk credit rating. Could President Pombe be avoiding M7 to explain the fiasco?
Magufuli hajawahi toka Tz. He only visited Rwanda and was by road
Padlocks was in UG for M7’s inauguration which was more important than Natahu’s visit…
Looking too much into the issue
There is just too much chatter to be just ignored. One thing is that M7 had also indicated he wanted to meet Pombe after the meeting following recent developments in the oil project after the Russians pulled out.
He probably sent his apologies, the only big issue might be the pipeline deal…
Tanzania have been isolating themselves too much refusing to co operate with the rest of the east african nations
That is ofcourse, i’m sure the FM delivered it in writing and personally in word. Lakini he can’t ignore the pipeline agenda for long. Time is ticking before M7 retires.
He probably has a phobia for heights
Apo kwa pipeline deal, M7 alitema Big G kwa karanga za kuonjeshwa
Just travel to Tz now with Kenyan papers, cops want you to report to every police station you pass. Even worse try and drive a car with our plates. Harassment is putting it mildly.
RAIS mkuu wetu sio mwana starehe mbachachi Kama wenu. Magufuli yupo mtaani anatengeneza nchi. Yeye si tourist
Tanzanians were questioning the reason for netahanyu to skip Tz in their forums. They even can’t comprehend why go to Rwanda and skip TZ,. ile kitu imewauma sana ni juzi magufuli went to Rwanda akasign agreement na kagame awasaidie na ICT engineers.
Kaa kando Wazee waongee
Bingwa scrotum, you tanzanian now?smh
Sawa Mimi huyo wamtaja msenge wewe
Tz will be the next north Korea of east africa
Mchana kucha magufuli, baba hutosheki na wenu?
Disowning your beloved country for attention…SMH…go outside and get some fresh air
It is not a big deal. Maybe he had other commitments to attend to.
