In this previously unseen video footage, during his visit to Kenya earlier this week, Tanzania’s President John Pombe Magufuli laments about Kenya’s never-ending tribal hegemony at State House, Nairobi during the State Banquet hosted in his honour by the Government of Kenya.
Speaking in prestine Swahili, President Magufuli openly castigates President Uhuru for failing to unite Kenyans and for perpetuating negative tribalism which he says is the primary impediment to Kenya’s socio-economic development.
Magufuli says that Tanzania with up to 121 ethnic communities have always been united under one Swahili tribe in a country known as Tanzania, and therefore he sees no reason why Kenya with only 43 tribes (including the Makonde) cannot be closely united under one cohesive nation.
President Magufuli, the current Chairman of East Africa Community, stopped short of pegging resumption of normal bilateral relations between Kenya and Uganda on a more ethnically representative Kenya.
