Making the announcement yesterday in Dar es Salaam, the party's Secretary General Samson Mwigamba told a central committee gathering that all contenders for presidency, parliamentary and councilors will be unveiled this week.
“Our party has covered almost 90 per cent of all the constituencies with 152 representatives to cover the 250 of Tanzania mainland and 40 to cover the 50 constituencies of Zanzibar,” he said.
"Today we will discuss the selection of candidates for presidency, parliament and councilors as well as the general political landscape of the country,” he added noting that the party will among other things also touch on prioritising citizen's welfare, in order to protect their interest before and after elections.
The development comes as rumours went about as to whether or not the party will field a presidential contender.
