Let’s observe patriotism to lift up our development

Its fifty years since our county achieved independence from German. On 9, December 1961, Tanzania under the leadership of the late Mwl. Julius Nyerere became an independent country. The problem remained was un­derdevelopment, this was a result of colonial legacy to not only Tanzania but also other African countries.

We still have the challenge of lacking enough capital to run our schemes including agricultural schemes, but this should not discourage us with our mission in growing our economy. What we need is to know the ob­stacles of the development.

The illiteracy class is the one which is in a position to bring changes to the country. The most important things for the development of any county are accountability and patriotism. We as the educated class need to have love and respect to our country. These two, in the combination with personal morality will make the civil servants and the leaders to behave in accountability manner.

The dishonest practices like scam and corruption are the great enemies of our country’s economy. Many corruption cases have been experienced in our country; these are those which including the prominent leaders who are expected to mobilize strategic plans for sustained development.

We Tumaini University, the educational institution also have the great role to bring changes in our society as well as the whole nation. As we participated in the fifth independence exhibition in Iringa region, we need to make sure we bring positive changes in our society.

Tumaini University extends its branches and accredits its colleges to University status. This is very beneficial thing to the students, the staff and the whole country at large as it widens the chance to the people to attain high education.

The incensement of the educated people should also rise simultaneously with the spirit of patriotism to our societies and the country as well. Tu­maini University and its branches are therefore supposed to prepare the future leaders who will effectively be responsible to bring development to our country.

We believe that Tumaini is one of the universities in Tanzania that shapes the students to be good future leaders, but still there is a need to shape them in more patriotic manner. This will contribute to the termina­tion of the scam and dishonest in the government and its system as well.
