[edit] St. Julius Nyerere?
I just noticed these external links:
Process initiated to declare Tanzania's founding president a saint
Is Nyerere's process to sainthood timely?
Do you think that Nyerere's Catholicism is worthy of sainthood? Please explain why or why not. Many thanks. Diamantina 12:28, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
- Nyerere is not being considered for sainthood (at least not by the Roman Catholic Church). --Ezeu 01:04, 26 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Removed Unsourced Statement
I removed: "Unfortunately, many believe that his socialist policies were directly responsible for the Hutu uprisings against the Tutsi in Rwanda and Burundi and played the major role in the ongoing sectarian genocides in that region." This had already been marked as "citation needed" for a while before I got to it, and is pretty inflammatory, so I removed it (especially since I had never heard this before, and given that Nyerere did not rule over either Rwanda or Burundi, the statement isn't immediately self-evident). If someone has a source for this, it would make for a very interesting addition to the article, though. Nicolasdz 09:44, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] "First Tanzanian..."
How can one claim that Nyerere was "the first Tanzanian to study at a British university", when Tanzania did not exist at this time? Perhaps he was the first Tanganyikan? Either way, can someone please provide a source, because as it stands now, the claim is highly irrational. --webkid (talk) 05:28, 29 February 2008 (UTC)
