MNigeria Mgaidi!

Bila shaka mmesikia habari za kijana wa KiNigeria, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, aliyejaribu kulipua ndege ikitua Detroit siku ya Krismasi. Kama angefanikiwa ingekuwa pigo kubwa.

WaNigeria na familia ya jamaa wanasema wanaona haya na jamaa amechafua jina la Nigeria! Mimi nasema kachafua jina la Afrika kwa ujumla! Lakini jamani, huyo kijana ni mtoto wa tajiri, millionea. baba yake alikuwa mkuu wa benki. Sidhani kama katika maisha yake amekuwa na uhaba wa pesa au njaa. Akitaka ananunuliwa, tena mtoto wa kiume! Lazima familia yake walimwoanesha upendeleo fulani. Halafu anaamua kufanya kitendo cha kigaidi. Kwenye taarifa ya habari wanasema Nigeria imejaa maskini na huyo kijana kweli alikuwa na maisha ya kifahari.

Inasikitisha. Ubaya zaidi kitendo chake kitafanya waNigeria na waafrika kwa ujumla kupata shida zaidi wakati wa kuomba visa za kuja Marekani. Pia watachunguzwa zaidi wakisafiri kwenye ndege.

Habari zinasema kuwa baba yake mzazi Umar, Al Haj Umaru Mutallab, alipeleka taarifa kwenye ubalozi wa Marekani huko Lagos, kuwa alikuwa na hofu kuwa mwanae ameingia kwenye kikundi cha kigaidi. Naona baba yake ni shujaa ingawa waMarekai walizembea. Lazima kilimwuma kuona mwanae anafanya maajabu, lakini aliona umuhimu wa kulinda maisha ya wengine.

Na mimi sasa nachukia kuwa kusafiri kwa ndege itazidi kuwa shida sasa. Utakaguliwa kila kona mpaka chooni sasa! Mwisho itabidi uvue mpaka chupi!

Salamu za Mwaka Kwa Bloggers

Amani, Heshima na Upendo kwako.

Kwanza napenda kumshukuru MUNGU kwa uhai wa kila mmoja wetu. Ni uhai huo unaotufanya sasa kuwasiliana hivi.

Pili napenda kutoa shukrani kwa kazi kubwa unayoifanya katika KUIELIMISHA, KUIBURUDISHA NA / AMA KUIKOMBOA JAMII YETU YA TANZANIA ambayo kwa hakika yatuhitaji sote. Tumekuwa pamoja katika kutimiza hili na najivunia uwingi wa blog zetu na utofauti wa maudhui yetu unaowafanya watu tofauti wenye kusaka "ladha" tofauti za habari-na-matukio kupata vyote toka kwetu.

Na sasa mwaka 2009 unakwisha na tunaelekea kuanza mwaka mpya wa 2010. Nakutakia mafanikio katika kila jema utendalo na hasa katika WAJIBU WETU WA HIARI wa kuisaidia jamii yetu ya Tanzania.

Lakini tunapoanza mwaka mpya, kuna mambo mawili ambayo ningependa kuomba na kusisitiza ndani ya jamii yetu.

Kwanza ni USHIRIKIANO. Tumeona ongezeko la wanajamii kwenye ulimwengu wa ku-blog na hili ni jambo jema. Lakini lina wema kama tutaweza kuungana na kuonesha UMUHIMU wa uwepo wetu. Tuko katika nyanja ama maudhui mbalimbali kama vile taswira, habari, uchambuzi, utambuzi, mitindo, mitazamo, imani nk, lakini sote twafanya haya kuiinua jami yetu ya Tanzania. Tunahitaji kuunganisha nguvu kwa kusomana, kutoleana maoni ambayo yanasisitiza, yanakosoa na kuelimisha zaidi jamii yetu.

Pili ni KUIREJESHEA JAMII. Kama sote twaandika kwa ajili ya jamii, basi tuwaze "ni kipi tutakachoifanyia jamii yetu kwa mwaka ujao kuionesha kuwa tuko pamoja nayo?" Binafsi niliwaza kuwa baada ya kumalizika kwa KONGAMANO LA BLOGGERS mwezi Februari, tuangalie namna ya kuunganisha nguvu na kufanya jambo moja la kuwajali walio katika mazingira magumu katika kuadhimisha SIKU YA KU-BLOG DUNIANI. Naamini tukianza mapema kukusanya michango kidogokidogo (hata kwa kutumia kamati itakayoaminika baada ya kongamano) tunaweza kufikia kiasi cha kubadili maisha ya jamii mojawapo. Iwe ni kuwanunulia mahitaji muhimu yatima ama kununua madawati, kujenga darasa, kusaidia maabara ama lolote litakaloonesha kuwa nasi tumetoka kwenye jamii hiyo, tunaikumbuka na tuko nayo katika kusaidia kutatua matatizo wanayokabiliana nayo. Tumeona mifano ya ndugu zetu waliounganisha nguvu na kufanikiwa kuibadili jamii (mfano ni hawa TUWA-USA http://changamotoyetu.blogspot.com/2009/11/tuwa-usamashujaa-wetu.html)
Haya ni mawazo ambayo naomba yawe kama chachu ya kujua nini twaweza kufanya kwa UMOJA kama wana-blog na kuirejeshea jamii.

Nawapenda nyote, nawaheshimu na nawaombea pia
Kwa niaba ya familia yangu na wana-changamoto wote, NAWATAKIA KILA LILILO JEMA KATIKA KUMALIZA MWAKA HUU NA KUANZA UJAO
BLESSINGSNB: Hizi ni salamu binafsi na si chapishi.

CCM UK na Mwaka Mpya

Na mimi nasema CCM Juu, Juu, Juu Zaidi!

*******************************************************************
Ndugu Wana CCM na Watanzania wenzangu.

Kwa niaba ya CCM Tawi la UK napenda kuwatumieni Salaam njema za Krismasi 2009 na kheri ya Mwaka Mpya 2010. Msimu huu wa Krismasi 2009 umetukuta katika hali ya hewa yenye mvua,theluji na barafu nyingi zikiathiri miundo mbinu na makutano ya kijamii. Aidha vichocheo-uchumi bado havijamaliza mgogoro wa kiuchumi ulioathiri na kufumua bei ya vyakula;gharama za huduma ya makazi;gharama za usafiri na upungufu mkubwa na ukosefu wa kazi hapa UK. Matatizo haya yameikumba dunia nzima.

Nyumbani Tanzania, wachache wetu walizipokea changamoto hizi na kuzitafsiri katika medani za kisiasa. Ni jambo la msingi wanajamii kutekeleza haki yao ya kidemokrasia na ni busara pia kutambua juhudi zinazofanywa na watumishi katika sekta za umma na binafsi.

Serikali ya Awamu ya Nne imeendelea kwa kasi nzuri kutekeleza Ilani ya Uchaguzi ya CCM iliyokubalika na wananchi wengi zaidi katika kuleta maendeleo kwa Taifa zima. Kwa kuwa mwaka 2010 ni kipindi cha Uchaguzi, tutajifunza katika Taarifa ya Serikali kuhusu mafanikio ya utekelezaji, uanzishwaji au/na marekebisho ya mipango endelevu ya miradi ya maendeleo katika nyanja mbalimbali zenye maslahi kwa Taifa ndani na nje ya nchi.

Tutashuhudia kuwa Watanzania wa makundi na jinsia zote hususan vijana, wanawake, walemavu, wazazi na wazee wetu, na wadau waishio ughaibuni wamenufaika au wanatarajia kunufaika na mipango hiyo endelevu. Aidha maeneo yote ya kiuchumi yamelengwa yakijumuisha Kilimo(kilimo kwanza); Elimu(ongezeko la wanafunzi-jinsia zote na la kitaasisi kwa ngazi zote); Madini na Nishati(marekebisho ya mikataba inayokidhi haja za Taifa dhidi ya sheria banifu za kimataifa); Afya(kasi usambazaji wa huduma umma/binafsi kwa kata na vijiji); Sheria na Usalama wa Raia(uhuru wa vyombo vya sheria kuwajibika na ongezeko la nguvu kazi); Fedha(ongezeko la huduma na sheria angalizi na rekebisho) pia Serikali kuanza kushughulikia sheria za Uraia wa Nchi Mbili na mashauri mengineyo.

Ni kweli kwamba katika maeneo haya bado kuna mianya inayo hitaji marekebisho kwa ushirikiano wa taasisi za umma na binafsi na pia wananchi kwa ujumla kuanzia sasa na kuelekea miaka mitano mingine ya Awamu ya Nne. Ndugu Watanzania wenzangu, tusibaki nyuma tukilalamika bila sisi kutekeleza wajibu wetu ipasavyo. Huo ndio UHURU wa kweli. Tusikosoe kwa Hisia tu bali Tusahihishane kwa ufasaha ili tufikie ufanisi maridhawa.

Uchaguzi ujao ni wetu wote. Lazima tushiriki. Kwa kupiga, kupigiwa au kuelimisha ndugu, jamaa na marafiki kushiriki kupiga KURA kutatuongezea haki na wajibu kwa Taifa letu. CCM inapinga Rushwa kwani ni Adui wa haki. Tafadhali usimshauri mtu kuandaa, kutoa au kupokea Rushwa wakati wote na hasa wa Uchaguzi.

Tutumie ratiba ya vikao vyetu vizuri kuanzia kwenye mashina yetu ili tujadili kwa makini kero zinazotusibu hapa Ughaibuni na Tanzania. Viongozi wetu watafikisha hoja katika vikao vya juu kwa ajili ya ufumbuzi. Nawashukuru kwa ushirikiano wa dhati kwa mwaka 2009. Mwaka ujao 2010 CCM inahitaji zaidi ushirikiano wenu. Mungu awabariki.

MAPINDUZI DAIMA
MAINA ANG'IELA OWINO
Mwenyekiti wa CCM Tawi la UK.

Merry Christmas!

Nawatakia Wadau Wote sikukuu njema ya Krimasi! Hapa Marekani tunafaidi baridi, theluji na barafu!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Ajali ya American Airlines Jamaica

Wadau, ndege ya American Airlines imepata ajali mara baada ya kutua huko Norman Manley International airport, Kingston, Jamaica. Kwa waliowahi kufika huko wanaelewa kuwa huo uwanja uko mwambao mwa bahari ya Caribbean. Habari zinasema kuwa ndege hiyo iliyokuwa na abiria 154 karibu iingie kwenye bahari! Ilisimama futi 10 (mita 3) kabla ya ufukwe! Ni miujiza hakuna aliyekufa ingawa watu 90 waliumia. Ajali hiyo ilitokea usiku wa kuamkia leo.

Habari zinasema kuwa ndege ilielekea kutua salama, abiria walikuwa wanapiga makofi, lakini wakati wa 'taxi' ndege haikusimama na badala yake ikaanza kuteleza, na kugonga vitu na zile oxygen masks zilishuka na zile overhead compartment za carryon baggage zilifunguka. Watu walikuwa wanapiga mayowe na kumwomba Mungu! Walisikia ndege inakatika vipande vipande.

Ndege hiyo aina ya 737, ilikuwa imetoka Washington, D.C.

Crime Reporter

A TEENAGER has been knifed to death - allegedly by his best mate - after a bust-up over a message on Facebook.
Salum Kombo, 18, was stabbed repeatedly and staggered 400 yards before collapsing in a pool of blood.

He was said to have been attacked by the 15-year-old who held a grudge because he had shown "disrespect" in the posting on the social networking site.

Grieving ... weeping
girls with flowers
Friends said the pair had been "really close".

Salum - who died in a street after the attack on Sunday - was said to have been threatened after commenting on another boy's profile the day before.

The jibe is believed to have related to the alleged murderer not being invited to a party.

A girl pal said: "Salum was killed just because he posted a stupid comment on another lad's wall on Facebook.

The boy had initially written something on his wall to which Salum responded. It just escalated from there."

Salum arrived in the UK from Tanzania around seven years ago.The news was broken to his parents there yesterday.

He was living with an aunt in Bow, East London, and had been an art student at nearby Tower Hamlets College.

Another pal alleged the killer had put his arm around Salum "then just stabbed him" yards from his aunt's flat.

Tribute ... Facebook
page for Salum
Salum had been singing Christmas carols with relatives shortly before he died, neighbours said.

One, who gave her name as Norma, said: "It's heartbreaking that this has happened so close to Christmas and it has affected the whole neighbourhood.

"His aunt is in a state of total shock and devastation."

Gary Byrne, 46, cradled Salum as "the life drained out of him" after he suffered a wound to the neck and chest.

He said: "We saw the kid lying on the ground with a crowd of young boys standing around him.

When I went over there was another guy trying to stem the flow of blood. The wound was either in his neck or chest.

"I was speaking to the ambulance while holding his head and trying to talk to him, trying to keep him awake. His eyes were flickering and I could see the life draining from the poor kid. There was so much blood, I have never seen anything like it in my life.

"When the ambulance pulled up he was still alive and they worked on him for about 20 minutes but he died on the pavement."

Emma Chaingwaro, 42, a nurse, said her son was a friend of the victim.

She added: "He was a nice, very respectful guy. Apparently it was all over a text message, something minor or trivial. My son is devastated."

It was the 13th teen murder in London this year.

A 15-year-old arrested over the attack is being quizzed at an East London police station.

Tiger Woods na Father Krismasi

Tiger Woods' Holiday Poem


"Twas the night of Thanksgiving and out of the house,

Came Tiger a flyin', while chased by his spouse.

She wielded a nine iron and wasn't too merry,

'Cause a bimbo’s phone number was in his Blackberry.


He’d cheated on Elin, and the story progressed.

Gal after gal stepped up and confessed.


He’d been cheatin’ with Holly, and Jaimee, and Cori,

With Joselyn, and Kalika . . . The world heard the story.


From the top of the Tour to the basement of blues,

Tiger’s sad sordid tale was all over the news.


With hostesses & waitresses, he had lots of sex,

When not in their pants, he was sendin' them texts.


Despite all his cryin’ and beggin' and pleadin',

Tiger’s wife went and bought a new home in Sweden.


And I heard her exclaim from her white Escalade,

"If you’re getting laid? Then I’m getting paid."


No, she’s not pouting, she's full of good cheer.

Her pre-nup made Christmas come early this year

Ajali ya Basi Tanzania - Watu 20 Wamekufa!

Jamani, ni kweli hizi basi za mikoani zinaenda mwendo wa kasi mno. Hata nilivyokuwa nasifiri na mabasi mikoani majuzi mabasi yalikuwa yanaenda kasi na yanashindana na kupishana ovyo!

Hii basi iliyopta ajali, ilikuwa inatoka Nairobi kwenda Dar es Salaam. Watu 20 wamekufa na wengine 30 wameumia. Ni habari ya kutisha na kusikitisha.

*****************************************************************
At least 20 people died on the spot and more than 30 were injured, some seriously, after a bus moving from Nairobi to Dar es Salaam was involved in a collision with a minibus near Same in Kilimanjaro Region yesterday.

The vehicles involved in the smash were a Mohamed Trans bus with registration number T 810 AQM and a minibus with registration number T 845 BCB owned by Grace Maleko.

Kilimanjaro Regional Police Commander Lucas Ng’hoboko confirmed the tragic incident, saying the scene was four kilometers from Same township.

“So far, it has been confirmed that 19 people have been killed and scores severely injured in the crash,” he said, adding that none of the casualties had as yet been identified.

Same District Commissioner Ibrahim Marwa said the accident occurred at around 4:30pm, adding that 16 of those killed were in the minibus and three in the bus.

“This is one of the most grisly road accidents ever to occur in our district,” he added, with other reports saying none of the passengers in the minibus survived the smash.

Reports from the scene said that the driver of the Mohamed Trans bus lost control after one of the front tyres burst and, on impact, rammed into the minibus, which was moving from the opposite direction. However, this was not immediately confirmed.

The bodies of the deceased are preserved at Same District Hospital and Mawenzi Regional Hospital in Moshi.

Some of the survivors interviewed blamed the accident on speeding by both vehicles, but RPC Ng’hoboko said a progress report would be issued today “after thorough police investigations”.

Tanzania has a high incidence of fatal road traffic accidents, with the country recently officially ranked among those with the world’s deadliest roads. This prompted UN health officials to call on the government to tighten road safety regulations.

The Global Status Report on Road Safety released last month by the World Health Organisation showed that road users in Tanzania were more likely to be killed than in many other countries.

According to the report, the number of vulnerable road users killed in the country was worryingly high, with pedestrians constituting 37 per cent of all casualties.

Deaths by road user category in the country were said to include motor vehicle passengers (33 per cent), cyclists (17 per cent), motorbike/Bajaj riders (7 per cent) and motor vehicle drivers (6 per cent).

The report revealed that 34.3 out of every 100,000 people were killed on roads in Tanzania in 2007, a dismal record going by corresponding figures for neighbouring countries like Burundi, Democratic Republic of Congo, Malawi, Uganda and Zambia.
