He hoped to clean the country in which a lot didn\u2019t support him &#8230; but today we are all enjoying his effort,\u201d said the editor of the 629-pages book containing 30 different chapters.<\/p>\n<p>The renowned academician said President Magufuli\u2019s sweeping measures, including interrupting contracts, firing senior government officials, renegotiating investment terms with a large multinational corporation and intensifying investment in infrastructures had propelled the country into greater heights.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe only problem is lack of patriotism,\u201d he said, adding that the president was angered by gross sabotage and slowness of people adopting to his pace.<\/p>\n<p>The editor said all the 47 researchers and contributors have lauded the president\u2019s approach which contributed to raising revenue collection by at least 48 per cent.<\/p>\n<p>ESAUP Executive Director, Ruta Mutakawa noted that the book is one among several publications. He said it was printed in South Africa and Tanzania.<\/p>\n<p>Some previously published works include The Roof of Peace in Zanzibar that suggested the establishment of the government of national unity, Why pay Tax that recommended a moderate approach in tax collection, and the promise that narrates 10 years of President Benjamin Mkapa in office.<\/p>\n<p>Prof Joyce Ndalichako, Minister for Education, Science and Technology described the new book as a prime resource towards enhancing the country\u2019s history\u2014 one of President Magufuli\u2019s latest directive to education authorities.<\/p>\n<p>Chief Secretary and UDOM Vice Chancellor, Eng John Kijazi said a similar plan is being organized by the university to write Magufuli\u2019s autobiography.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the Prime Minister offered a 20m\/- donation to help print more copies but also directed the Minister of State, Prime Minister\u2019s Office Jenista Muhagama to facilitate printing of 3,000 copies that will be sold to government institutions as well as local government authorities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
