JE, UNAWEZA KUIPIGANIA HAKI KWA KUONEA HAYA DHULUMA? Ni dhahiri kwamba huwezi kuhubiri wokovu huku ukiionea haya Injili! Huwezi kuwa mpenda mabadiliko huku ukiwabeza wanaharakati, wawe wa ndani ya nchi au nje ya nchi. Huwezi kudai kuwa mpenda mageuzi huku ukiichukia CHADEMA. Na huwezi kusema unampenda Tundu Lissu huku ukimchukia John Heche. Tofauti za mitazamo, mbinu na misimamo hazipaswi kutufanya tuwe maadui. Demokrasia inahitaji uvumilivu, kuheshimu tofauti na kukubali kwamba kila mmoja ana nafasi na mchango wake katika mapambano ya haki na mabadiliko. Tujifunze kutofautiana bila kuchukiana, kukosoana bila kudhalilishana na kushirikiana bila kulazimika kufanana. Tujisahihishe! Demokrasia na mageuzi tunayoyapigania lazima yaanze kwanza ndani yetu. Tunaweka nguvu nyingi katika mambo yasiyo na maana, huku katika mambo ya msingi tukitafuta watu wa kuwatwisha lawama badala ya kukabiliana na changamoto zenyewe. TUJISAHIHISHE! UKWELI, HAKI NA UWAJIBIKAJI VITALIPONYA TAIFA. BAK MWABUKUSI .................................................................................................... You cannot preach salvation while being ashamed of the Gospel! You cannot claim to support change while ridiculing activists, whether they are operating within the country or in exile. You cannot claim to champion reforms while hating @CHADEMA. And you cannot claim to love Tundu Lissu while hating John Heche. Differences in perspectives, strategies and positions should never turn us into enemies. Democracy requires tolerance, respect for diversity and recognition that everyone has a role and contribution to make in the struggle for justice and change. Let us learn to disagree without hating one another, to criticise without humiliating one another, and to work together without necessarily having to think alike. Let us reflect and correct ourselves! The democracy and reforms we are fighting for must first begin within us. We invest too much energy in issues that do not matter, while on matters of real importance, we spend our time looking for someone to blame instead of confronting the actual challenges. LET US PUT OURSELVES RIGHT! TRUTH, JUSTICE AND ACCOUNTABILITY WILL HEAL OUR NATION. BAK MWABUKUSI

My Brother, Godbless Lema No form of slavery is better than another. A slave is a slave, whether domestic or plantation slavery. As leaders, reformists and activists who believe in diversity, we must be prepared to accept criticism, whether expressed positively or negatively. Our differences in the approaches we adopt in the struggle for democracy are not a weakness; rather, they reflect the reality of our different perspectives and levels of understanding. Everyone has a role to play and a contribution to make, despite the shortcomings inherent in each of our approaches. Our strategic differences are, in themselves, part of our humanity. Even among the disciples of Jesus, there were those who were more inclined towards engagement and outreach, such as Philip, while others, like Simon Peter, were more conservative. That is why the Greeks who came from Bethsaida approached Philip to connect them with Jesus rather than going to Peter! Disagreements and differences between activists at home and those in the diaspora must never make us lose sight of the bigger picture. We must not lose our direction because of our differences. Our priorities must remain 1. FREEDOM AND JUSTICE FOR TUNDU LISSU. 2.  JUSTICE FOR ALL VICTIMS OF POLITICALLY MOTIVATED CASES. 3.JUSTICE FOR ALL VICTIMS OF INJUSTICE AND OPPRESSION BEFORE, DURING AND AFTER THE GENERAL ELECTION OF 29 OCTOBER 2025. In the face of these common struggles, where, then, is the justification for all this infighting? My brother with all due respect Let us engage  through ideas and arguments, embrace our differences, respect one another, and never allow personal disagreements to distract us from our common mission. TRUTH, JUSTICE AND ACCOUNTABILITY ARE THE ONLY PATH TO HEALING OUR NATION. BAK MWABUKUSI

HAKUNA NJIA YA MKATO (THERE IS NO SHORTCUT) UKWELI, HAKI NA UWAJIBIKAJI NDIVYO VITAKAVYOLIPONYA TAIFA LETU. JIEPUSHENI NA MADALALI WA GIZA. Yeyote anayehubiri maridhiano bila kuweka mbele ukweli, haki na uwajibikaji, aidha ni muuaji au wakala wa wauaji. Msimamo wa aina hiyo lazima ukataliwe hadharani! TRUTH, JUSTICE AND ACCOUNTABILITY ARE THE ONLY PATHS TO HEALING OUR NATION. BEWARE OF BROKERS OF DARKNESS. Anyone advocating reconciliation without first establishing truth, justice and accountability is either a perpetrator of killings or an agent of the perpetrators. Such a position must be publicly rejected! BAK MWABUKUSI
