Green men are not only from Mars

The on-going election campaign meetings of the various political parties bring out the brightest of party colours: on t-shirts, caps, scarves, and on humans.



The green men of Musoma.

Saturday's campaign meeting at Musoma that was addressed by the ruling party's presidential candidate who is also Tanzanian president Jakaya Kikwete was a sea of yellow, green, and included these three party supporters who painted their bodies green.

The paint and the bare chests gives them a rather menacing look. I suspect without the paint they are normal law-abiding citizens.
