PRESIDENT JAKAYA KIKWETE RE-SHUFFLES CABINET

 H.E. President Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete  announced his new cabinet yesterday, 

it was highly anticipated that President Kikwete would reshuffle the cabinet after 

appointing the former United Nations Deputy Secretary general 

Dr Asha Rose Migiro as a member of Parliament in the Month of December 2013.

President Jakaya Kikwete on Tuesday, this week, nominated former United Nations Deputy Secretary General, Dr Asha-Rose Migiro, Member of Parliament.

And a section of the Tanzanian media, led by an authoritative Kiswahili weekly, Raia Mwema, was spot-on in linking the president’s move with his plans to reshuffle the cabinet.

Dr Migiro was the Minister for Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation when her name was given by President Kikwete to the then newly elected United Nations Secretary General, Ban Kin Moon after the latter had requested for the name (preferably that of a woman) for appointing to the newly introduced UN post as a way of appreciating Tanzania’s sterling role in successfully campaigning for him for the top UN job.
