kikwete
0:16
the president of tanzania as you all
0:19
will remember
0:21
our movement
0:22
had a home
0:24
in tanzania during
0:27
the tough and dark days of our struggle
0:30
tanzania is one of those countries
0:33
among the front-line states
0:36
that offer sanctuary
0:38
to our movement and to our leaders
0:41
and president nirere as we all know
0:45
was the leading african leader
0:47
who championed the liberation
0:50
of
0:51
various countries
0:53
in the on the continent
0:55
and countries like tanzania and many
0:58
others
0:59
sacrificed a great deal
1:02
almost stopped their own development
1:04
to ensure
1:06
the total freedom
1:08
of all other countries that were still
1:10
struggling against colonial rule
1:12
tanzania
1:14
stands amongst those countries that we
1:16
hold in highest regard and it is for
1:19
that reason that we ask president
1:22
kikwete to come forward
1:24
and pay his condolences
1:27
to president nelson mandela
1:30
overseas where the military wing of the
1:32
anc operated from dar es salaam chris
1:35
hani who was later murdered operated
1:37
from the indar which is why this
1:39
reference to tanzania and its importance

3:05
and the former president
3:07
of the afghan national congress
3:10
the people of tanzania would like you to
3:12
know
3:14
that you are not alone
3:16
they are with you
3:18
during this difficult period of morning
3:22
and they will be with you
3:23
thereafter
3:26
they are saying your grief is our grief
3:29
your loss is our loss
3:32
nelson mandela was our leader
3:35
our hero
3:36
our icon and our father
3:39
as much as he was us
3:42
the people of tanzania have lost a great
3:44
friend the view of tanzania have lost
3:48
a great comrade
3:50
in arms
3:53
comrades
3:55
president mandela
4:00
had a long association with tanzania
4:05
it that it dates back to the times of
4:07
the struggle
4:08
for independence and liberation here in
4:11
south africa
4:12
and in tanzania
4:15
our two sister parties the anc
4:18
intern of the canadian afghan national
4:20
union
4:22
later chamachema pinduzi
4:24
enjoyed the special relations
4:28
with each other
4:31
we supported each other at the time of
4:33
need
4:35
it was no accident therefore that after
4:37
the anc
4:39
decided
4:41
to take the struggle to the next level
4:45
and form the i'm doing from country
4:47
season
4:48
after peace
4:50
after peaceful means
4:52
seemed to be futile
4:54
that islam
4:56
was madiba's first port of call
4:59
in january 1962.
5:07
he left south africa secretly
5:11
through the chuana land at that time
5:15
northern rhodesia
5:18
into tanganyika through the town of
5:21
mayor
5:23
and then from there
5:25
arrangements were made for him
5:27
to come to darysla
5:31
his mission
5:34
was to seek support for the struggle
5:37
and a place to train
5:40
the mk combatants
5:43
congress and friends
5:46
he met
5:47
our first president
5:50
now late
5:51
julius campbell ready
5:55
and i'm humbled to say that i have also
5:58
come with me
6:02
his widow
6:04
mama maria
6:18
indeed
6:19
this visit of madiba
6:23
was later to become
6:25
a landmark
6:27
event
6:29
which had the profound effect
6:32
in changing the course of history of
6:34
this great nation
6:36
culminating in the fall of apathy 1994
6:39
in the birth of a new south africa
6:44
though at first
6:46
president nierele
6:48
had some reservations or hesitations
6:52
in his discussions with madiba
6:55
about
6:56
when and how to initiate the armed
6:58
struggle
7:00
he
7:00
accepted madiba's requests
7:04
and provided members of the mk
7:06
both
7:07
permission to live in tanzania
7:10
and places to train
7:14
i'm sure
7:16
the anc and mk veterans gathered here
7:23
to them names like kongwa
7:26
mugagao
7:28
morogoro
7:38
sound familiar
7:42
and when we mention them they may even
7:44
rekindle
7:45
the nostalgic memories of the life they
7:48
lived in tanzania
7:49
sharpening their tools and skills
7:52
of defeating apathy
7:58
but president went further
8:03
beyond availing places to live and to
8:05
train
8:08
he offered tanzania's own moral and
8:10
material support
8:13
mega as it was but it was very symbolic
8:16
to us
8:18
but also marim was instrumental in
8:20
mobilizing regional and international
8:22
support
8:23
for training
8:24
and arming the combatants
8:27
indeed
8:29
this applies to all other liberation
8:31
movements
8:32
the pac
8:36
impeller
8:38
swappo suako
8:39
zano
8:41
zappo
8:42
and frelimo
8:50
besides that
8:52
tanzania was generous enough
8:58
to give
9:00
cutters of the liberation movement
9:03
travel documents
9:09
passports
9:11
and all that what is needed
9:13
and when necessary
9:15
some of them assume the tanzanian names
9:29
when madiba came to tanzania he had no
9:32
passport
9:37
but from tanzania i was going to lagos
9:39
to accra
9:41
then lagos and addis ababa
9:45
he was given
9:47
a tanzanian travel document
9:56
it facilitated his movement
10:01
and i know a number of
10:02
you use transcendent travel documents
10:07
i don't know if taboo returned his
10:17
comrades and friends
10:22
madiba's trip to darussalam
10:25
was to change the fortunes of the anc
10:28
after being banned by the upper third
10:30
regime here in south africa
10:34
the anc found a new home
10:36
in tanzania
10:38
from where it operated
10:44
organized
10:46
spearheaded
10:48
and prosecuted
10:51
they struggled
10:53
from tanzania the anc was able to reach
10:56
its colors
10:58
and other members who remained and
11:00
operated from inside
11:02
south africa through discrete means of
11:04
communication
11:06
from tanzania the anc was able to have
11:09
messages
11:10
reach the broad masses of the people of
11:12
south africa through publications
11:16
say chaba
11:18
and dedicated radio broadcast
11:22
radio freedom
11:33
broadcasted from direct
11:37
as a matter of fact the government of
11:38
tanzania
11:40
had built a special radio station
11:43
for the liberation movement
11:48
the anc
11:51
was able to get back the voice
11:54
that was denied to them by the upper
11:57
side regime
11:59
comrades and friends
12:02
there is another
12:03
interesting thing about madiba's first
12:06
visit to tanzania in
12:08
1962 i would like to share with you
12:12
in order to keep the visit discreet
12:16
he did not stay in hotels
12:19
he stayed at a home
12:21
of tano's treasurer who was then the
12:23
minister for commerce and industries
12:26
mr santerabi zafarian seroswai who is
12:29
now late
12:31
on his departure
12:34
when he is on a trip to accra lagos
12:36
addis and algiers he left behind his
12:39
boots
12:42
at mr swai's
12:44
home
12:45
in the hope that on his way back
12:48
would pick up the boots
12:51
unfortunately
12:52
he could not pass through that islam
12:54
again
12:55
and shortly after arriving
12:57
back in south africa he was arrested
13:00
and imprisoned and spent 27 years in
13:03
robben
13:04
island but fortunately
13:07
this why family kept the boots
13:10
awaiting his return
13:13
in 1995
13:14
when mandela was president
13:18
the pair of boots were handed back to
13:21
him
13:31
by mrs vikki silosoi the widow of the
13:34
late
13:35
sirozui
13:37
who died in 1994 shortly before madiba
13:40
became president
13:42
i have brought mama vikki and surosway
13:44
with me to bid farewell to their special
13:47
guests
13:48
and friends
13:57
comrades
13:59
after his release from prison
14:03
and after visiting lusaka for the
14:04
meetings of the
14:06
national executive committee of the anc
14:09
madiba came to darussalam
14:11
it was not again by accident
14:14
he was met
14:16
by the largest crowd
14:18
tanzania has ever seen
14:20
receiving a foreign dignity
14:27
and that record
14:28
has never been broken
14:31
but mind you we terrained heavily that
14:33
day
14:36
as chiefs when when the chiefs come it
14:38
always reigns
14:41
that's the belief in our part of the
14:42
world
14:44
but people never left their positions
14:48
they thronged the airport
14:50
lined the streets of darussalam braving
14:52
the rain
14:53
to see their hero
14:55
their icon
14:57
their leader
14:58
nelson polisha chamandel
15:01
indeed
15:02
mandela's charisma is unmeshed in modern
15:05
times
15:07
of course
15:09
he visited the facilities of anc
15:12
morogoro
15:14
iringa
15:15
and spent the night
15:18
with a call with the combatants of mk
15:20
atim gagao
15:21
their training base
15:23
comrades and friends
15:25
i've narrated all these stories and
15:27
anecdotes to let you the people
15:30
of south africa know how far back
15:33
the current excellent relations between
15:34
our two friendly countries
15:36
and between the anc and chamber of
15:38
champions have come from
15:42
it is not by accident
15:44
that south africa and tanzania enjoy
15:46
excellent bilateral relations
15:49
we are close friends and allies
15:52
because our community because our common
15:54
history
15:55
unites us
15:57
we see eye to eye on many bilateral
15:59
regional and international issues
16:02
we support each other at regional in the
16:04
international forum comrades
16:07
it is none other than our founding
16:09
father
16:10
first president marilyn julius nirelle
16:13
and the founding father of this new
16:15
south africa
16:17
president nelson mandela who are
16:19
responsible for this friendship and
16:22
cooperation
16:24
they built very strong foundations for
16:27
our ballot relations
16:28
that is why i said at the beginning
16:31
that madiba is very much our leader
16:34
our hero our icon and our father as he
16:39
is to you
16:40

17:44
and prosperity
17:46
and you my brothers and sisters of south
17:48
africa
17:50
madiba has lived his life well
17:52
you should leave his legacy
17:55
he has left behind a vibrant democracy
17:58
he left behind a new nation where black
18:01
and white south africans live together
18:03
harmoniously
18:05
a nation where nobody has denied his or
18:07
her basic rights because of the color of
18:10
his skin
18:13
a nation where blacks can also prosper
18:17
unlike in the past
18:18
when they were condemned to live in
18:20
scholar
18:21
their profession
18:22
and their state-class citizens in their
18:24
own country
18:26
we know
18:27
not all that he stood for has been
18:29
achieved yet
18:31
it is full hurry also to assume that all
18:34
the yields of the former pathetic system
18:36
will be corrected in these 19 years
18:45
nonetheless
18:46
a lot has been achieved
18:48
although much more has to be done
18:53
the agency government
18:56
is doing it
19:02
please stay the course
19:04
and always strive for great excellence
19:07
remain united as a people
19:09
and remain united as a nation
19:12
this way
19:13
he will honor this great statesman
19:16
this great sign of this soil
19:19
in a manner that he would be pleased
19:23
if he were alive
19:25
this is the best way to live his legacy
19:29
we'll always hold you in your prayers
19:31
you are not alone

19:46
the role that

tanzania played in supporting the armed

secret and dangerous things to know
