Abstract: | Tanzania's first President Mwalimu ('teacher' in Swahili) Julius Nyerere died on 14 October 1999. These tributes pay attention, amongst others, to Nyerere's accomplishments, one of the most admirable being the sense of nationalism, pride, and dignity he instilled in the people of Tanzania; his role in the triumph of the freedom struggle in a number of African countries; his graceful exit from power in 1985; and his statesmanship. The last contribution is Nyerere's address to South African Members of Parliament in Cape Town on 16 October 1997. |
