IN SUMMARY

They raised their concern shortly after resolutions on the Escrow saga were read in the House in which the Parliament asked the executive arm to discipline all those who had been named in the saga.

Zanzibar. Prime Minister Mizengo Pinda was supposed to be included on the list of those to be disciplined over the Tegeta Escrow Account saga because, as a leader of government business in Parliament he failed in some aspects, a cross section of Zanzibar residents has said.

They raised their concern shortly after resolutions on the Escrow saga were read in the House in which the Parliament asked the executive arm to discipline all those who had been named in the saga.

Those who gave their views on the outcome of the saga include politicians, activists and ordinary people. They said as a way of showing good governance, Prime Minister Pinda should have been the first person to be taken to task.

Mr Soud Muhanna Nassor, said that because the premier is the leader of government business in the House he was supposed to step down as a way of assuring the public that he was not directly involved in the scandal.

He said that the unveiling of the Tegeta Escrow scandal threatens the survival of the ruling party, CCM, especially when we’re heading to local government elections on December 14.

For his part, TLP presidential aspirant for the 2010 general election, Mr Abdallah Omary Mgaza, said that the House’s decision relied on political interests, instead of relying on the laws and national interest.

An activist Mr Rashid Salum Adiy, said that even though the decisions made by the House show some maturity in members of Parliament, it’s saddening as there emerged a group of MPs who were trying to save the culprits.

He noted that Pinda was supposed to step down just like his predecessor, Edward Lowassa, who resigned over the Richmond scam.
