These most recent defectors said they did so because; “we are tired of the unbecoming remarks by leaders of CCM towards Edward Lowassa.”
Swalehe Ramadhan Kilavo was the CCM ward chairman in Monduli Town he said; “I took this decision without being forced by anyone, but enough is enough. I am not with what CCM did to Edward Lowassa in Dodoma.”
“We are not ready to be led by CCM Ideology and Publicity, Nape Nnauye who has been championing dirty campaigns against Lowassa. We are also not happy with what CCM did to Lowassa in the Dodoma nominations.”
Another party leader, Lekibelie Saksta Ololekaura, heaped his blame on CCM top decision making bodies saying the entire Presidential Nomination process was flawed.
Commenting, Dawson Kaaya, a Monduli resident and former member of CCM was of the view that the ruling party is reaching decisions which are against the majority’s will.
“As leaders at the grassroots levels, we’re tired with the trend of the party and that is the reason for many of us to find alternatives,” he said.
Monduli Urban ward had a total of 2,100 active CCM members.
Speaking from the empty deserted offices, the single remaining CCM faithful, CCM ward secretary, Anna Ernest, said; “I have nobody here to lead...all CCM members have joined Chadema.”
