Pieces from ''Acknowledgement''
The Sykes Letters
...this work would not have been possible if it were not
for the moral and material assistance I received from Ally Sykes. Ally Sykes
allowed me to interview him on many occasions in spite of his busy schedules managing
his business from his city center office. He allowed me to consult his own
private files, personal letters, diaries and other family records. These
records were kept in a safe which I was informed remained untouched for over
thirty years. Going through the files I was amazed by Ally Sykes’ obsession
with record keeping. Every piece of paper with information was kept, however
trifling it may have seemed during the struggle-a 1954 pencil note from Zuberi
Mtemvu to Ally Sykes, informing him of a discussion he had with Nyerere about
him and TANU; a 1953 money order receipt from Ally Sykes to Japhet Kirilo
during the Meru Land Case; an undated copy of the letter from the TAA to Queen
Elizabeth signed by the entire executive (the President, Julius Nyerere,
Vice-President Abdulwahid Sykes, General Secretary Dome Okochi, Assistant
Secretary Dossa Aziz, Treasurer John Rupia, Assistant Treasurer Ally Sykes)
congratulating Her Majesty on her coronation; a 1952 letter from Rashid Mfaume
Kawawa from Bukoba to Ally Sykes
informing him of the political situation in the Lake Region; a 1963 letter from
Lady Judith Listowel; letters from Kenneth Kaunda, Julius Nyerere, Kasella
Bantu, Thomas Marealle... the list is endless...

| Dome Okochi Budohi |
My family was acquainted with one Dome Budohi, a
Kenyan nationalist who was in Dar es Salaam during the struggle. Budohi helped
in the founding of TANU and his membership card was no.6 issued to him in July,
1954. He was arrested in 1955 by the colonial government on charges of being a
member of Mau Mau, a peasant uprising in Kenya against the British. I have many
recollections of visiting Budohi in his cell at the Central Police Station
building which now houses the headquarters of the Tanzania Railway Corporation
(TRC).

Kurejea kwa chama cha kidini cha AMNUT kwamlango wa nyuma wa ACT
Mnamo mwaka 1958 kundi la waasi/wasaliti likiongozwa na Katibu mkuu wa TANU ndugu Mtemvu na Mwenyekiti wa Baraza la Wazee la TANU Shekhe Suleiman Bin Amir walifukuzwa baada tu ya uchaguzi wa chama hicho mjini Tabora ambapo wagombea wa nafasi ya rais wa chama alikuwepo Julius Nyerere na Abdul Skys, na mshindi alikuwa ni Julius Nyerere,
Ikumbukwe uchaguzi huu ulikuwa ukiwakutanisha wagombea hao kwa mara ya pili kufuatia uchaguzi wa 1953 pale ukumbi wa Anatouglo Mnazimmoja chama kikiwa bado kinaitwa TAA.
Naaam baada ya uchaguzi wa 1958, mitazamo ya kidini ilizidi kuchipuka hasa kwa kundi la waliofukuzwa kutaka chama kiwe na mlengo wa kidini,
Walipofukuzwa walianzisha chama chao kiitwacho AMNUT, kikiendesha shughuli zake za kisiasa kwa mbeleko ya udini, lakini Watanganyika wote wa kipindi hicho walikikataa chama hicho na hivyo kikaishia mifukoni tu mwa akina Mtemvu, Shehe Amir na baadhi ya walioendelea kuwa ndani ya TANU.
Sasa leo 2014, chama hicho kimeibu kwa jina la ACT, Njia za usakaji wafuasi zinalandana na AMNUT, Mitazamo na hulka za viongozi waanzishi wa chama hiki wanalandana kwa kila kitu na chama cha AMNUT,
Juzi chama hicho kilifanya kazi ya uenezi mkoani mwanza na kigoma na watu wadini tofauti na mlengo wa AMNUT hawakuruhusiwa kujiunga hapohapo, waliambiwa kuna fomu maalumu kwaajili yao inayotakiwa kuiridhia kwa kiapo,
Mimi kwakuangalia umoja na mashirikiano yetu, ninawaasa watanzania wawe waangalifu na chama hiki, na pia nimuase Msajili wa vyama vya siasa kutafakari upya kabla hajakipa usajili wa kudumu.
Kwa wale ambao hamkuijua AMNUT, tembeleeni uzi huu hapa chini, tuliijadili kwa mapana yote,
