EDWARD LOWASSA AFANYA KUFURU JIJINI MWANZA..HII NI BALAA AISEE...HUU UMATI UNATISHAA

BOFYA HAPA CHINI UONE VIDEO YA KIUTU UZIMA     Former Tanzanian prime minister Edward Lowassa, seen as frontrunner to become the East African nation's next leader, has launched his campaign for the ruling party's presidential nomination.
The Chama Cha Mapinduzi party has ruled since independence in 1961 and the fractious opposition is not expected to challenge its position in a parliamentary and presidential vote on Oct. 25.
"I have decided to run for president to tackle poverty," Lowassa told hundreds of supporters at a stadium in the northern Tanzanian town of Arusha on Saturday.
President Jakaya Kikwete has overseen rapid economic growth averaging 7 percent over the past decade in Tanzania, but his administration has been criticised for failing to deliver on promises of tackling poverty.
Lowassa said his top priorities would include overhauling the country's education sector, reducing poverty, boosting economic growth and fighting corruption.
"We will use the country's natural resources, including natural gas, to develop our nation... we cannot build a modern economy without curbing corruption," he said.
Businesses have long complained corruption is one of the main reasons for the high cost of doing business in Tanzania.
Tanzania is estimated to have more than 53.2 trillion cubic feet (tcf) of gas reserves off its southern coast, but its energy sector has long been dogged by allegations of graft and other problems.
Lowassa, 61, who backed Kikwete in 2005, is seen as a divisive figure in the ruling party after resigning in 2008 over corruption allegations in the energy sector, charges he denied. But he is widely seen as a strong contender.
He faces a stiff challenge from rivals in the ruling party for the presidential nomination, including Makongoro Nyerere, son of Tanzania's founding president Julius Nyerere, who has announced he will launch his bid on June 1.
Whoever wins the ruling party nomination is all but assured of taking office after Kikwete, who stands down this year after serving the maximum two terms.
Analysts said the opposition would struggle to mount a credible challenge despite plans to field a single presidential candidate.

Lowassa becomes the highest profile figure from the ruling party to join the opposition camp in Tanzania, which has east Africa's second-biggest economy.
The Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) party has ruled since independence in 1961. The fractious opposition was initially not expected to pose a serious threat to its position in parliamentary and presidential elections on Oct. 25.
But analysts said Lowassa's defection could see Chadema, the main opposition party, mount a realistic challenge to CCM for the first time ever.
"I have decided to leave CCM ... and join Chadema," Lowassa told a news conference in Tanzania's commercial capital Dar es Salaam. "It is obvious that CCM has lost its direction."
Opposition sources said the main opposition coalition was expected this week to name Lowassa, a popular politician with a reputation for getting things done, as its presidential candidate.
Lowassa accused President Jakaya Kikwete's CCM of being undemocratic, saying it had unjustly removed his name from a short list of presidential candidates. Kikwete steps down this year at the end of his second and final term in office.
Tanzania's ruling party on July 12 named Works Minister John Magufuli as its candidate for this year's presidential race.
From a final list of three, Magufuli, 55, beat two female contenders - former senior U.N. official Asha-Rose Migiro and Amina Salum Ali, the African Union ambassador to the United States.
Lowassa, 61, was seen as a front runner in the ruling party's presidential nomination race but was not included in the short list of candidates, causing divisions in the party.
He quit as premier in 2008 over corruption allegations that he denies.
Tanzania has been one of Africa's most politically stable nations and has not been torn by debates raging in parts of the continent, where some presidents have sought third terms despite constitutional restrictions.
The main opposition parties promised last year to field a single candidate in the election, but experts say they may struggle to overcome years of mutual suspicion and infighting. (Reporting by Fumbuka Ng'wanakilala; Editing by Drazen Jorgic and Tom Heneghan
