The Tanzanian civil society Anti –poverty movement last Saturday held a landmark show of mass power when thousands of people stood-up in solidary with 35% of the Tanzanian population which lives in abject poverty.
Rallying under the banner slogan, “how can we stay seated when 14 million Tanzanians go hungry each day”, the participants of the mass rally which was preceeded by a 10 kilometre marching procession urged the masses to only select leaders who are mindful of the plight of the poor as they vote this year.
