    On his return to Tanganyika, Nyerere took a position teaching History, English and Kiswahili, at St.

    Francis' College (currently Pugu secondary school), near Dar es Salaam.[15] In 1953 he was elected
    president of the Tanganyika African Association (TAA), a civic organisation dominated by civil
    servants, that he had been involved with while a student at Makerere University.[4] In 1954 he
    transformed TAA into the politically oriented Tanganyika African National Union (TANU).[4] TANU's
    main objective was to achieve national sovereignty for Tanganyika. A campaign to register new
    members was launched, and within a year TANU had become the leading political organisation in
    the country.[16][17]
