"content": "Towards the 2017 General Elections, we tried to have good laws and good systems in place, but my experience in election matters has taught me that anything is possible even as we move towards 2022. This country is good at coming up with policies and structures, but fails to implement what we have put on paper. Unless we get to know what we want during election time, all these laws and systems will be an exercise in futility. We all saw the systems that we had put in place towards the 2017 elections. During the last General Elections, we could only enter the data of our party candidates in the electoral system when the late Msando opened the window, and I thought that was good. Previously, we struggled to input the data of the candidates in preparation for the elections. We could not access because they had put such good systems in place; that you could only access upon being given authority by a certain authority. However, look at what happened. We lost the late Mr. Msando, who was the only person who could open those systems for us when we were inputting data. What comes to your mind? That somebody, somewhere does not want proper structures in this country; and they do not care about electoral systems in this country. Somebody somewhere, at all costs, just wants to do, what they want to do."
