The party will not let you down,\u201d he assured.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Polepole, however, vowed that CCM would take disciplinary measures against party members, who engaged in misconduct.<\/p>\n<p>Previously, the party had launched a special centre which members could provide information about aspirants, who seemed to violate party\u2019s procedures, and Mr Polepole on Wednesday said through the centre, they managed to collect information.<\/p>\n<p>He, however, quickly said the party elections were governed by procedures and its constitution, and was generally conducted openly, transparently and properly due to reforms made since 2016.<\/p>\n<p>Among other things, he said, the party had completed holding primaries at all constituencies.<\/p>\n<p>It would thereafter be followed by the party&#8217;s political committees in particular constituencies to discuss the aspirants and provide recommendations to political committees at district level, which they would discuss and give their proposals to the political committees at regional level.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, the party said during this year\u2019s General Election, it would conduct the best campaigns ever experienced in the country.<\/p>\n<p>According to Mr Polepole, the new mode of campaigning, coupled with envisaged adoption of digital technology in registering new members, is expected to increase the number of members.<\/p>\n<p>He pointed out that the adoption of digital technology would enable new members to fill registration forms through their mobile phones, instead of using papers.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Polepole said so far, the party has a total of 16,800,000 members countrywide as of last June.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the ruling party condemned the main opposition Chadema for tampering with the national anthem.<\/p>\n<p>The opposition party distorted the national anthem, by substituting the word-concept Tanzania with Chadema.<\/p>\n<p>The doctored song was enthusiastically sung by members, who included top leaders, as the opener of a recent major political event in Dar es Salaam.<\/p>\n<p>The Registrar of political parties, Judge Francis Mutungi termed that move as &#8216;defiling&#8217; the national anthem.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Author: BERNARD LUGONGO AfricaPress-Tanzania: THE ruling party CCM has allayed worries among its aspirants, who observed party procedures during primaries, saying they should relax and have inner peace.
