\nAfricaPress-Tanzania:<\/strong> ACADEMICIANS, political analysts and the public in general have lauded President John Magufuli\u2019s cabinet lineup while anticipating a bright future for the country.<\/p>\n

President Magufuli unveiled his cabinet on Saturday, which comprises 23 ministers, as he retained 70 per cent of politicians who served in his first term.<\/p>\n

Commenting on the newlyunveiled cabinet, some observers were optimistic that the team comprises ministers who are apparently committed and focused to deliver and transform the nation.<\/p>\n

According to the analysts, President Magufuli\u2019s keenness in appointing both experienced politicians and new faces shows clearly that while the focus is on performance, the president is also preparing new blood for high positions as part of a succes sion plan.<\/p>\n

University of Dodoma lecturer, Dr Paul Loisulie said President Magufuli\u2019s new cabinet is in line with his government\u2019s slogan \u2018Hapa kazi tu\u2019, literally translated \u2018work per se\u2019.<\/p>\n

\u201cMost of the appointed cabinet members and the deputy Ministers are youths, fresh and strong minded, energetic, innovative and ambitious; people who are ready to work in any weather,\u201d said Dr Loisulie.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, he has also appointed those experienced, diplomatic individuals; and he has fit them perfectly in the respective ministries knowing each minister\u2019s ability will be fully utilised in their respective dockets,\u201d he asserted.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026Some ministries need youths, who can be challenged by the president and keep the high spirit, stand strong and deliver beyond expected levels,\u201d further stated Dr Loisulie.<\/p>\n

However, he pointed out that the new cabinet needs to work hard to meet people\u2019s expectations after the ruling party won almost all constituencies across the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe all understand that the parliament is almost full of legislators on CCM tickets, therefore the public expect a lot, therefore ministers need to work hard to ensure the government delivers as required,\u201d he implored.<\/p>\n

University of Dar es Salaam- School of Journalism and Mass Communication (SJMC) lecturer Dr Zacharia Malima stressed that to ensure performance as promised during election campaigns, the Head of State needed strong, visionary and self-motivated ministers who are ready to work and ensure all promises in the manifesto are implemented.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe this is exactly what the new cabinet lineup is set for. The president wants to guarantee that the manifesto is implemented to meet the needs of the people; that is why he has appointed people based on their ability to deliver in the respective ministries,\u201d he asserted.<\/p>\n

It took more than a month for President Magufuli to appoint his full cabinet.<\/p>\n

Ruaha Catholic University (RUCU) Prof Gaudence Mpangala observed that the delay in naming the new cabinet could be interpreted as the president\u2019s keenness in appointing competent ministers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believe there was high seriousness in the appointment of the new cabinet. President Magufuli changed many of his ministers during his first phase due to the standards of work he wanted. It is my belief that this will not be the case in the coming five years because this team looks different,\u201d he commented.<\/p>\n

The political scientist added that the inclusion of young politicians means a lot to the development of the country.<\/p>\n

He said youths are stronger, and thus it is ideal to let them gain experience of running government businesses.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can see President Magufuli investing in youths. But again this opportunity must be taken seriously by youths because they have been trusted,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

In Mara region, the residents who were interviewed said they expect the new cabinet to do a good job, lauding new faces and those who have been retained.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe President has made a good choice. He has also retained hardworking ministers like William Lukuvi. I congratulate the President for the good job\u201d, said a former local government leader, Mr Augustino Sasi.<\/p>\n

Another, Mariam Mokono, a special seat councillor from the same region said: \u201cWe expect the ministers to do a great job because most of them are youths and scholars.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
