ISLAMIC HEGEMONY: SHALL IT PEEP IN THE LAST COMING CONSTITTUTION DRAFT IN TANZANIA?

Muslim scholars like any other interesting groups have vowed to see Islamic tenets in the coming constitution. The Constitution assembly began on 18th Feb, 2014 and will last for 70 days, if not 90.

From the first draft, it was in the heart of the constitution commission to set aside all religious matters from the constitution which guarantees the freedom of worship to the existing diversity of beliefs in the land.
Unfortunately, Fundamental Muslims long to see the country is ,constitutionally, Islamitized to fit their religious interest of dominance over all other beliefs in Tanzania.

It is well known that this ambition began even before Tanzania became independent in 1961, when you would hear fundamental Muslims claimed that they enthroned Mwalimu Nyerere to lead the country according to the Islamic tenets, which, Mwalimu Nyerere never touched even one.

In this regard, they vow to restore the Islamic hegemony as it were before the independence.Historically, Arab Muslims pre-existed Christian missionaries.

On the other hand, President of Tanzania, Dr. Jakaya Kikwete warned members of the constitution assemble to bear in mind the country's interest and not political, or religious interest.

Pray for the smooth process of constitution review
