Magufuli is now literally going nuts
Trying to repeal the immutable laws of supply and demand is like trying to push the rock of Sysiphus up the Kilimanjaro! No human being has ever experienced long term success with it. Ask Stalin and Mao.

Tanzanian President John Magufuli has ordered the army to buy up the entire country's crop of cashew nuts after private companies refused to pay the price fixed by his government.

Following the dramatic arrest and interrogation by Tanzanian authorities, Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) Africa coordinator Angela Quintal recounted the nasty experience she went through with her colleague Kenya’s Muthoki Mumo in Dar es Salaam.
The two were detained on November 7 and interrogated for several hours as the Tanzanian authorities searched their electronic devices, seized their passports and accused them of being in the country illegally, which the pair say is a false claim.


We were ordered out of the vehicle into the house and taken upstairs for interrogation. The men specifically targeted Muthoki, because she was a young black female and Kenyan to boot,” says Ms Quintal.

Ms Quintal says Ms Mumo was questioned in Swahili, accused of betraying black people and asked whether I was really a South African. They tried to separate us, but failed.


The intelligence officers forced them to share their passwords so that they could access their devices and content but Ms Mumo had wiped off data on her mobile phone in line with CPJ's protocol.

The officers claimed they used Israeli technology and could retrieve their data but CPJ ensured her social media accounts were disabled after a tweet was sent by the Tanzanian authorities.

An intelligence agent was particularly abusive towards Muthoki. He even slapped and shoved her.”
