LET THE RELIGION AND GOVERNMENT LEADERS WORK FOR PEACE

            

The country of Tanzania is among many nations which has no religious leadership. Because of having more than one religion then the government decided to have not o base on any religion. Tanzania Muslims, Christians, Shia, hindu  and other religions without forgetting there are others who has no religious at all.

            There has been some torturing of religious leaders especially in Zanzibar whereby within the year of 2012 where by religious leaders of both Muslim and Christian faith were tortured by unidentified people.

            During the month of November 2012 a religious leader from Muslim sheikh Fadhil Suleiman Soraga was tortured by chemicals (acid) by what was reported that the event was done by unknown people but it directly associated by the issues of religion revenge.

            Again on the Christmas day in the last year 2013 a Roman Catholic Priest Father Ambrose Mkenda was tortured. He was also tortured by the unidentified people during that day though police is trying to find out.

            Long time ago the spiritual leaders were respected and sometimes people were scared doing bad things to them but a thing has come to vice verse.

            With these events now every side of the faith both Muslims and Christians are in stress because some signs of enemity are seen. For example Christians were scared during the days of Christimas.

            Tanzania Christians Forum gave a request to the Tanzania Government that it has to take very urgent and serious actions to all those groups going against Tanzanian’s National Laws because they lead to the absence of peace and security.

            The Chairperson for Tanzania Christian Forum (TCF)  Bishop Dr. Peter Kikula through Mtanzania Newspaper said the relationship between Christians and Muslims has started dawdling      and so he wanted to have ana established organ which will be not from any religion to void bias because some people have been saying the government is being led by Christians a thing which fallacy.

            Bishop Dr. Kitula went on saying religious leaders have to be teaching their people on peace maintain and preaching facts, which I think is the best thing.

            Some countries where peace is no longer existing  they real cry for peace that is why political leaders from both Tanzania Mainland and Tanzania Island keep on insisting that people should respect each other and following the national Laws.

            But here comes a question again on who is behind the issues of torturing religion leaders because it is the issue which has happened more than one time. The tortured by gun on neck Priest Ambrose Mkenda while in hospital Muhimbili National Hospital on December 30 2012 said there are some signs which show there is a group of people who are using some unemployed street guys to fight against church leaders and other people who work for pushing forward national development. He said he has been doing his spiritual works since 1995 but no any events like that have ever happened.

            Though it has yet been  proved these people doing are from which religion domain but the government through the police it has to take serious actions and procedures to know who are these people doing it, because if the issue will be just left without serious actions, in the future days it won’t be easy to solve or stop it.

            It is better both religion meet and discuss in deep about this while chaired with a non religious person or a preventative from the government and then an organ should be made work on solving religious issues which will be out of any bias.

            Since the Government of Tanzania does not have any religion side in its leadership then no sign should be shown in its activities basing on favoring  a certain religion because it will keep on bringing confusions. One side of the religion will experience as being treated unfairly.
