Dar es Salaam. As the ruling party, CCM, edges closer to finalising its list of candidates for the October General Election, over 50 former Members of Parliament (MPs) have lost in the primaries votes cast nationwide on August 4.
The fate of these lawmakers, including several deputy ministers, is now uncertain as the party’s internal nomination process moves to its final stages, with the National Executive Committee (NEC) expected to meet on August 22 to approve parliamentary and councillorship candidates.
