Mizengo Pinda belongs to the political record as a figure whose decisions outlasted the moment that produced them.
The record lists Mizengo Pinda as Tanzanian politician.
Mizengo Pinda was born at Mpanda in 1948. His recorded nationality is Tanzania. He was educated at University of Dar es Salaam.
Twentieth-century politics was conducted under the shadow of two world wars, decolonisation and the Cold War, and broadcast to electorates that could watch it happen.
The offices held were Member of the National Assembly of Tanzania and Prime Minister of Tanzania (2008–2015).
His political affiliation is recorded as Party of the Revolution.
Political reputations are settled slowly, and rarely by the people who made them.
That the career was made in Tanzania is not incidental: the institutions available, the franchise, and the constraints of the moment all shaped what could be attempted.
Mizengo Pinda's career is not finished, and the historical verdict on it has not been reached.
