Jerry Slaa, CCM Ilala Municipal Mayor told the gathering that youths must fully use their position either by seeking different political and administrative positions or voting for competent, honest and committed youths who can abolish the emerging selfishness, lack of inspirational leadership and exploitation of natural resources for the benefit of a country. “There is no need to gather in groups, rallies just because of political status, which in turn leads to the killing of our colleagues,” he said.

The spirit for change in the country is very high, adding that the group will not relent on their pursuit for a free Zanzibar.The former Zanzibar minister without Portfolio, Mr Mansoor Yusuf Himid. My position is known to the people of Zanzibar...we’ve decided that party politics cannot take us anywhere and, we want to build a sovereign state, which will be free for all irrespective of their political ideologies,” he said. He said people in Zanzibar no longer fear each other despite holding different political affiliations, thus association for the interest of the nation is paramount. Mr Himid, however, acknowledged that his involvement with opposition members in the committee that is spearheading formation of a treaty-based union does not go well with some people in the government. But, he maintained that the spirit for change in the country is very high, adding that the group will not relent on their pursuit for a free Zanzibar. According to the former minister, after 48 years of the Union marred with frictions, they (committee) have realised that the treaty-based union would solve the union problems. The committee is made up of six members and have all united to push for their agenda. The former Civic United Front (CUF) deputy secretary general, Mr Ismail Jusa, and a prominent businessman, Mr Eddy Riami, are the key figures in the committee. The committee chairman is Mr Hassan Nassoro Moyo (CCM), while other members include Mr Abubakar Khamis Bakery (CUF) and Mr Salum Bimani (CUF)
