PRESIDENT KIKWETE MEET WITH CHADEMA LEADERSHIP IN IKULU
















President Jakaya Kikwete will on Sunday meet a leadership delegation from the opposition political party, Chadema, in Dar es Salaam over the process to get the new Constitution for Tanzania.

A statement issued by the Directorate of Presidential Communications on Saturday evening says the meeting, to be held at the State House in Dar es Salaam, follows acceptance by the President to a request by Chadema’s leadership to have audience with the President over the Constitution process.

The statement says the meeting with Chadema is the first in a series of meetings the President plans to hold with opposition political parties’ leaders and other stakeholders over the process to get a new constitution.

The timetable for the President’s meetings with the opposition parties will be availed to the public later, according to the statement.

It says the process to get the new Constitution for Tanzania will be guided by a new Law on Constitutional Reforms 2011 which was endorsed by the Parliament during its just-ended session in Dodoma, last week.
