BREAKING NEWS: Singida North MP, Lazaro Nyalandu resigns all his positions within CCM and intends to join Chadema, check this happened
Dar es Salaam. Singida North MP Lazaro Nyalandu (CCM) has quit
the ruling party (CCM) and plans to join the main opposition party,
Chadema.
Mr Nyalandu has written to Speaker of the National Assembly Job Ndugai to inform him of his resignation from the MP seat.
Announcing
his decision, the former minister of Natural Resources and Tourism said
the main reason behind his decision was CCM’s failure to supervise the
government, expressing his dissatisfaction with human rights violations.
The
long serving lawmaker also said there was no clear separation of powers
between the three pillars of state – the legislature, executive and
judiciary.
“We need a new Constitution that will help us attain our goals and strengthen democracy in the country,” he noted.
