A few days after President John Pombe Magufuli fired a government official in a public rally for allegedly sleeping with married women, he has once again pulled out a similar move.

On June 28, Magufuli fired Kisarawe District Administrative Secretary (DAS), Mtela Mwampamba, during a public rally he had attended over several allegations including having a fishy relationship with married women.

This Monday, Magufulu has pulled out a similar move and fired top police officials after marijuana was found in their area.

In another public rally, Magufuli announced the firing of Meru District police heads for what he said to be failing to deliver on their duties as they were supposed to.

“Nakupongeza Mkuu wa Dawa za Kulevya ulienda Meru na Watu wa TV fulani nafikiri Clouds, ukabaini Bangi, IGP nataka Mkuu wa Polisi Meru aondolewe, DSO na OCCID wote watoke,hawakutimiza wajibu wao, na wewe leo nakuconfirm kuwa Kamishina wa Dawa za Kulevya, utaapishwa hapahapa,” Magufuli announced the shocker, which loosely translates to:

(I congratulate the head of Drug Abuse because you went to Meru accompanied by some TV people. I think Clouds TV crew, and nabbed marijuana, Inspector General of Police I want Meru Police Chief to be removed, DSO and OCCID all should be removed from those positions, they did not fulfill their duty, and you today I am confirming you as the new Commissioner of Drugs, you will be sworn in right sway from here).

Magufuli noted that government officials must deliver to Tanzanians, adding that they will be recalled or/and fired if they fail to deliver as required.

He said the government is not going to wait until’s official’s term in office expires even when their job is wanting.

He urged other officials to stick to their job ethics and deliver to the people.

Recently, the World Bank ranked Tanzania among Middle-Income countries.

Magufuli said he was determined to achieve that status in 2025 but God made it happen 5 years earlier.
