Kivutio cha Watalii kijijini Manda

Wadau, hii kaburi ni la Mjerumani aliyekufa huko Manda mwaka 1904. Alizaliwa 1879. Maandishi yalikuwa kwa kijerumani hivyo sikuelewa vizuri wanasema nini. Nasikia wazungu wakifika kijijini ni lazima wafike huko kuona kaburi. Ni njiani kwenda kanisa la St. Thomas, huko Nsungu. Pia watu huko wanaamini kuwa wajerumani wameacha dhahabu tele huko kijijini. Kila siku watu wanachimba huko kuzitafuta!

Stori inaendea hivi, Mwingereza alipovamia, wajerumani walitia dhahabu yao kwenye sanduku. Waafrika wawili walipewa kazi la kubeba hiyo sanduku. Waliambiwa wachimbe shimo kubwa la kuficha hiyo sanduku. Baada ya kuchimba hilo shimo, waliingiza sanduku. Wajerumani waliwapiga risasi hao waafrika wawili na kuwazika humo humo kwenye shimo na hilo sanduku la dhahabu. Walihofia watasema wameficha wapi hiyo dhahabu. Kuna watu ambao wanaamini kuwa wajerumani wameacha ishara kadhaa kuonyesha walipozika ila sanduku.

Picha zingine zitabandikwa kesho jioni.

Kaka Christopher wa Tangi Bovu/ Hill Top Square anatuma salaam za pongezi kwa Rais Barack Obama. Anasema amefurahi sana kuona mtu mweusi mwenye busara anaongoza nchi kubwa kama Marekani. Kanunua khanga na kushonea nguo kabisa. Ananyosha kidole kuelekea Marekani.

Mukesh wa Tabora

Wadau waliosoma Tabora Girls/Boys, na kupitia Masange JKT wataelewa hii blog.

Siku ya jumamosi nilikutana na Mukesh aka. Al Wattan wa Tabora. Nilikutana naye kwenye maduka pale Tangi Bovu/Shule unapopanda mabajaji. Niliingia kwenye duka pale kutafuta mahitaji. Nilishangaa kwa nini jamaa hajui bei ya vitu kwenye duka lake. Kaniambia kuwa hilo duka ni la mke wake na anamshikia kwa muda kwani yeye anakaa Tabora. Nikamwambia mbona mimi nilishakaa Tabora. Alisema, kila mtu mjini Tabora anamfahamu fundi wa magari. Ndo kuongea tukakuta kumbe tunajuana siku nyingi, ila mara la mwisho kuonana ni 1984 nilipomaliza Masange JKT. Tukapeana story za enzi zile. Nilimtania, yaani hatukujuana kwa vile tumezeeka!

Wadau, nimerudi Boston. Siku ya jumamosi nilikuwa sijisikii vizuri nikiwa nyumbani kwa wazazi wangu pale Tangi Bovu. Ilikuwa nikitembea kidogo nachoka. Mama yangu kasema niende Massana Hospital kupima damu. Nilienda jumapili asubuhi kupima. Kweli nilikutwa na Malaria! Duh! Nikapewa tiba. na kuondoka mchana huo huo. Yaani nadhani niliambukiwa siku ya kwanza nilivyokuwa Dar.

U.S. State Department Travel Alert - Tanzania

Travel Alert
Tanzania (including Zanzibar)
October 15, 2009

The U.S. Department of State alerts American citizens to the possibility
of election-related unrest as Zanzibar registers voters for the upcoming
general elections expected October 2010. American citizens who choose to
travel to Zanzibar during this period are advised to maintain a high
level of security vigilance and avoid political rallies, centers where
voter registrations are taking place, and related public gatherings.
This replaces the Travel Alert of August 28, 2009, to reflect continued
voter registration throughout the Archipelago of Zanzibar, which
includes both islands of Pemba and Unguja. This Travel Alert expires on
February 15, 2010.

Past elections in Zanzibar have featured violence during the campaign
season, the election and especially in the days and weeks following
announcement of the results. Since registration of voters began on the
island of Pemba on July 6, 2009, there have been reports of civil
unrest.
Voter registration on Pemba Island is expected to conclude on January
10, 2010. Voter registration on the larger island of Unguja (also
referred to as "Zanzibar") began September 12 and is expected to
conclude February 14, 2010. A second round of voter registration is
anticipated in late spring 2010 and may carry with it similar political
tensions.

For the latest security information, Americans traveling abroad should
regularly monitor the Department's Internet website
(http://travel.state.gov ), where the current
Travel Warnings and Public Announcements, including the World Wide
Caution, can be found. Up-to-date information on safety and security can
also be obtained by calling 1-888-407-4747 toll free in the U.S., or for
callers outside the U.S. and Canada, a regular toll-line at
1-202-501-4444. These numbers are available from 8:00am to 8:00pm
Eastern Time, Monday through Friday (except U.S. federal holidays.
Americans living or traveling in Tanzania are encouraged to register
with the U.S. Embassy through the State Department's travel registration
website, https://travelregistration.state.gov/ibrs/ui/, so that they can
obtain updated information on travel and security within Tanzania.
Americans without Internet access may register directly with the nearest
U.S. Embassy. By registering, American citizens make it easier for the
Embassy to contact them in case of emergency. The Consular Section of
the U.S. Embassy in Tanzania can be contacted by telephone [255] (22)
266-8001 ext. 4122 and fax [255] (22) 266-8238. You may also contact the
U.S. Embassy in Tanzania via email at drsacs@state.gov. For after hour
emergencies U.S. citizens should call [255] (22) 266-8001.

Wanavijiji Wafukuzwa Morogoro

Premier Mizengo Pinda (C), flanked by Morogoro regional commissioner, Colonel (rtd) Issa Machibya (L), Kilombero district commissioner, Evarist Ndikilo and Kilombero Plantations Limited manager, Carter

Huko Zimbabwe, Mugabe anafukuzwa wazungu kusudi wananchi wa kiafrika wapate ardhi ya kulimia. Sisi Tanzania, tunafukuza waafrika kusudi wazungu wapate ardhi ya kulimia. Ukoloni Mamboleo?

**********************************************************

Kutoka ippmedia.com

Prime Minister Mizengo Pinda has ordered villagers who invaded the Mngeta Rice Farm (MRF) in Kilombero district, Morogoro region to leave immediately to make way for massive agricultural investments.

The premier issued the order over the weekend on the second day of his official tour of Morogoro region to inspect agricultural activities including farms and research centres.

Addressing Mngeta villagers, the Prime Minister said about 2,000 residents of Mngeta and Lukolongo villages have illegally taken over 300 hectares out of 5,000 hectares in the potential area for paddy farming.

He directed Morogoro regional authorities to ensure that villagers who have illegally invaded the area are immediately relocated to other areas.

“But this should be done in a proper manner. I would not prefer the use of force during the process of relocation,” the Premier cautioned, stressing that farmers should continue cultivating around the MRF as out-growers and contract farmers.

He said the move would enable the farmers acquire farming skills and access to rice farming infrastructures.

MRF is co-owned by Rufiji Basin Development Authority (RUBADA) and a UK based investor, Agrica.

The two have formed a new company known as Kilombero Plantations Limited (KPL) to help boost modern agriculture in the region.

The farm was established in 1986 under Korea Tanzania Agricultural Company (KOTACO). KPL started to operate the farm in 2008 and succeeded to cultivate more that 2,000 hectares of rice with an investment of 22bn/-.

Pinda arrived in Morogoro last Saturday and started his tour by visiting Kilombero district where he received information on development of the ‘Kilimo Kwanza’ initiative from the District Commissioner, Eng. Evarist Ndikilo. He also visited the Katrin Agricultural Research Centre.

He also visited Chita-Melela valley which is used for rice cultivation.

The Prime Minister also advised farmers to establish a Savings and Credit Cooperative Society (Saccos) that would provide them with funds to improve their agriculture, and promised to give them 10m/- once they manage to contribute among themselves a total of 10m/-.

Pinda yesterday visited Sagamaganga village to see a demonstration farm for livestock keeping where he promised a 3m/- donation as a contribution for purchases of animal feeds and vaccination.

Miss EA Schengen 2009 - Questions and Concerns

Miss EA Schengen 2009 - Questions and Concerns

Dear community, can you please share my concerns below in your respected outlets.

I would like to understand a few things about this Miss EA Schengen competition (as there seems to be a lot of Miss competitions popping up with the notion of empowering young women). For anyone who can help, please do share your knowledge. Earlier attempts to speak to Mr. Charles Gadi were futile, as he hung up on me, upon me saying I did not recognise what the company was. Most importantly, we would like to know who is behind the organisation. What is their background? Who is training the girls? What do these individuals do for life? The girls competiting are required not to have "poor behaviour or they will be disqualified". Are the organisers, trainers etc squeaky clean? Will their background impart "beauty, culture and purity" to the girls? Do you really, really know who is working with your daughters and sisters? DO YOU??

So my questions;

1. What kind of organisation is this? Is it an individuals company or an NGO? What is the registration number if anyone knows, and when was it registered. Who is on the board?

2. On the website, the contact is not clear, there is only an e-mail and phone number but no physical address.

3. What kind of health (or any other) insurances are in place for young girls participating in this event?

4. The organisation aims to encourage people to visit East African countries etc. Is this encouraging East Africans in the diaspora to go back to their own countries, or they are targeting Europeans? If so, how is this being marketed to them?

5. One of the entry requirements is; girls must be single and have no children. Why specifically single? Is this a discrimination on young girls who might have boyfriends? Does it make them improper to serve the community?

6. I see there are only 2 sponsors, one travel company and a restaurant. Are they the main sponsors of the event? Do they provide the presents for these young girls? I believe, it is important to have transparency, and it would be encouraging to see the companies put forward what they are actually sponsoring, so that come the time their word will be legally binding (mainly to the participating girls). I would hate to see naive young girls being exploited.

7. Does the company provide psychological support to young girls who might be vulnerable to insults that will no doubt pop in different blogs whereby the individual has decided to market. It is one thing to claim to build confidence in young girls, it is another when individuals elsewhere try and knock young girls' confidence. A proper organisation should have these things in place.

8. On that note, a concerned parent has recently called the organiser, Mr. Gadi in relation to the pictures and more importantly to a "bongoflava" cheap $2 video (NOTE: $2 is a compliment), which consists of lyrics that arent pleasant to a parent, with videos of the young girls pictures flashing. He has been asked to remove them, the singer has been requested to remove them. In reply Mr. Gadi said "Maybe I will do", "I will see what I can do" or "They are 18 years, they can decide what they want". I believe on this note, an organiser creating a reputable organisation, promoting positivity for the girls, shows a lack of understanding and respect to a concerned parent and our beautiful african culture. I believe the organiser has a family, and needs to think like a family man. So if anyone else knows who is running this organisation, it will be wise to share it, so they can be contacted, perhaps they might show sense and discuss as grow ups.

9. It may be neccessary to contact the different ambassadors to understand their involvement in this event, and whether they endorse the carefree nature of dealing with parents as shown by this particular organiser.

10. For parents who have young girls competiting for these events, it is important you ask questions and make sure your children's interests are best served. Where will your girls be staying? How are they funding their travelling costs? Will these costs be recouped regardless of whether they win or lose?

Food For Thought for parents: What do you want your young girls to achieve from this? Is it attention? Fame? Material things? If helping the community, is parading on stage and being viewed as an object what your daughter is about? In terms of modelling, in Europe there are a lot of very genuine modelling companies with clear procedures on how they are run. My word is, ask questions, talk to your friends, advise them and do the right and sensible things for your young daughters and sisters.

Best of Regards,

Denis

(Please feel free to contact me in private and in confidence. I am accessible on the e-mail (and my mobile no. is available on request via e-mail), I will be happy to speak out when you do not dare, where neccessary, you can always rely on the rule of law).

Tatizo la Umeme Tanzania

Jamani, mbona habari ya mgao wa umeme kuanza tena Tanzania inasikitisha sana. Lini tatizo litaisha? Kweli habari hizi zinavunja moyo. Badala ya kwenda mbele tunakwenda nyuma!

Someni maoni ya mhariri wa Nipashe.

********************************************************************
Tunahitaji umeme wa uhakika si malumbano

Na Mhariri

13th October 2009

Ukifuatilia kwa karibu yanayotokea katika sekta ya nishati ya umeme nchini, huwezi kuepuka kufikia hitimisho jepesi tu, kwamba hakuna anayejali kinachotokea.

Kama taifa tumekosa ujasiri si tu wa kutenda, bali hata wa kusema. Tumekosa hata soni ndani ya nafsi zetu, kiasi cha kubakia kupiga domo mwaka hadi mwaka.

Taifa kwa sasa lipo kwenye mgawo mkali wa umeme wa zaidi ya saa 14 kwa siku kokote ambako gridi ya taifa imepita. Ni kero, shida na kila aina ya kuvunjika moyo, kwamba mwaka baada ya mwaka tunabakia pale pale, watu tusioweza si tu kujifunza kwa makosa ya watu wengine, bali hata kwa yetu wenyewe.

Tangu mwaka 2006 serikali ilipoamua kuachana na mchakato wa kubinafsisha Shirika la Umeme Nchini (Tanesco) tulitarajia kuona watu wakikimbizana usiku na mchana kuiondoa nchi katika adha hii ya umeme wa mgawo.

Tuliona juhudi za kutafutwa kwa umeme wa dharura wa megawati 100 wa kampuni hewa ya Richmond, ambayo ilipewa kandarasi ya kuzalisha nishati hiyo kwa kutumia gesi asilia.

Kwa bahati mbaya, umeme huo uliingia ruba, haukupatikana kwa wakati, kwa hakika ulipatikana wakati dharura ikiwa imekaribia kufikia ukingoni, lakini kwa kutambua ukiukaji wa taratibu za kumpata mkandarasi Richmond, mkataba wake ulivunjwa na hivyo, Richmond na mrithi wake, Dowans wakatakiwa wafungashe virago.

Tangu hatua hizi za kuvunja mkataba zichukuliwe, si tu kumekuwa na ngonjera za kutakiwa kwa mitambo ya Dowans, bali pia juhudi za lazima kabisa za kutaka Tanesco inunue mitambo hiyo, hoja inayojengwa ni moja, mitambo ni mizuri na kwamba mitambo si mkataba, kweli inawezekana kuna ukweli wa jambo hilo.

Lakini kwa bahati mbaya, nchi haiendeshwi tu kwa uhalali wa kisheria na ubora wa hiki au kile, bali pia na siha ya kisiasa ya wakati husika. Kwa maana hiyo kama siha ya kisiasa si mwafaka kwa wakati fulani si vema wala busara kung’ang’ana na jambo fulani.

Kwa hali hii haijalishi kwamba eti mitambo ya Dowans ni mizuri kiasi gani, kama siha ya kisiasa si mwafaka kwa mitambo hiyo kuchukuliwa, na kwa sababu wahusika serikalini na ndani ya Tanesco walikwisha kuonywa juu ya hali hiyo, tulidhani kwamba nguvu zao zingeelekezwa kwa mbadala wa Dowans.

Lakini inavyoelekea watu wamejaza vifua visasi na vinyongo vya kutaka kuonyeshana nani zaidi. Nguvu kubwa hazijaonekana zikielekezwa huko na huko kusaka mitambo mengine kama mbadala wa Dowans, hata kama ilijulikana wazi kwamba mkataba wa Richmond kuanzia mapema ulikuwa ni wa miaka miwili tu, sasa kufikiri kwamba bila wao (Dowans) adha ya umeme haiwezi kutatuliwa, tunashawishika kuuliza kuna nini Tanesco na Wizara ya Nishati na Madini?

Kama taifa hatuwezi kukamatwa mateka wa Dowans na siasa zote zinazohusu Richmond na wote waliokuwa kondoo wa kafara kwa utendaji mbovu wa baadhi ya watendaji serikalini na au maamuzi dhaifu ya wanasiasa; tunataka umeme.

Tanesco ni lazima itambue kwamba inawajibika kutupa umeme, ni lazima iumize kichwa kutupa umeme, kutupa sababu za mgawo wa umeme na ratiba ya mgawo, si vitu vinavyosaidia taifa hili kusonga mbele.

Tunahisi kwamba kwa kitambo kirefu mno, Tanesco si tu wameachwa hadi kulewa vilivyo ukiritimba wa kuzalisha na kusambaza umeme nchini, bali pia wamebobea mno katika uzembe na kutokujali kwa kiwango cha hali ya juu.

Uongozi wa Tanesco umeamua kubweteka, si leo wala jana, ila kwa miaka na miaka, wameruhusiwa kuishi kwa kuamini wananchi ndio wanaowahitaji na si vinginevyo, ndiyo maana Tanesco daima hawashituki wanaposikia mteja wao kapata hasara kwa sababu ya kuunguliwa na nyumba kutokana na huduma zao mbovu, wala hawasumbuki wanapokuwa na mlolongo wa maombi ya wananchi wanaohitaji huduma yao. Tanesco wakikosa kabisa mkakati wa kumaliza kero hizo.

Tanesco walitutisha kwamba kwa kuikataa Dowans tutajuta, na sasa wameanzisha mgawo, ndiyo kusema walikusudia kuliadhibu taifa, walipanga na sasa wametekeleza. Hii haikubaliki, kama wapo walioshindwa kazi Tanesco wanasubiri nini, hili ni shirika la umma si kampuni binafsi, ni vema na haki wakapisha wengine watakaothubutu kujaribu na hivyo kutatua kero ya umeme nchini.
