Hatma ya Wenger Arsenal yategemea msimu huu

Meneja wa klabu ya Arsenal ya Uingereza, Arsene Wenger.

Meneja wa klabu ya Arsenal ya Uingereza, Arsene Wenger ameiambia BBC kuwa hatma yake katika klabu hiyo ya Emirates inategemea jinsi matokeo ya klabu hiyo msimu huu yatakavyokuwa.

''Mkataba wangu utakamilika Juni mwakani kwa hivyo nitakachofanya baada ya hapo itategemea na matokeo ya msimu huu'' alisema Wenger.
Raia huyo wa Ufaransa 66, aliajiriwa mwezi Septemba 1996 kuiongoza klabu hiyo.
Mkataba wake wa sasa utakamilika mwishoni mwa mwezi juni mwaka ujao.
Arsenal haijashinda taji la ligi kuu ya Uingereza tangu mwaka wa 2004 jambo ambalo limechochea uhasama dhidi ya Wenger haswa kutoka kwa mashabiki wa klabu hiyo.
Awali wenger alikuwa amehusishwa na wadhfa wa kocha wa timu ya Uingereza lakini Sam Allardyce akachaguliwa kuchukua pahala pake Roy Hodgson.

Trump azidi kujikwaa ulimi kuelekea uchaguzi

Mgombea urais wa chama cha Republican Donald Trump, ametifua zogo jingine kwa kutoa matamshi yaliyotafsiriwa kuwa yanayowachochea wanaotetea haki za kumiliki bunduki kuchukua hatua zitakazomzuia Hillary Clinton. 

Akizungumza hapo jana katika mkutano wa hadhara, katika jimbo la North Carolina, Trump alisema Clinton akiachiwa kushinda, atawachagua majaji watakaopinga sheria ya haki ya kumiliki silaha nchini Marekani, matamshi ambayo yalionekana yanachochea kuangamizwa kwa mpinzani wake.

Kundi linalomfanyia kampeni Clinton limeyataja matamshi hayo kuwa hatari na kusema mtu anayepania kuwa rais wa Marekani hapaswi kupendekeza matumizi yoyote ya nguvu.
Maneno ya Trump ni hatari

Hata hivyo, kundi la kampeni za Trump limejaribu kumtetea mgombea wao kwa kudai alimaanisha kuwa wanaounga mkono sheria ya umiliki wa bunduki wanapaswa kujitokeza kwa wingi kumpigia kura Trump katika uchaguzi ujao.

Mgombea urais wa Democrats Hillary Clinton

Punde baada ya matamshi hayo makali ya Trump, watu wengi katika mitandao ya kijamii wamemshutumu mgombea huyo wa Republican kwa kutaka kuuawa kwa Clinton.
Idara ya usalama wa Marekani inayotoa huduma za usalama kwa Trump na Clinton ambayo ni nadra kuzungumzia masuala ya kisiasa imesema inafahamu kuhusu matamshi hayo yaliyotolewa na Trump, lakini haikusema kama itaanzisha uchunguzi.
Michael Hayden, mkurugenzi wa zamani wa shirika la ujasusi la Marekani - CIA, amesema kiongozi ana wajibika sio tu kwa yale ayasemayo bali pia kwa yale watu wanayoyasikia.
Matamshi yenye utata kutoka kwa mgombea huyo wa urais wa chama cha Republican yanakuja hata baada ya maafisa 50 wa usalama wa Republican siku ya Jumatatu kuonya kuwa Trump atakuwa rais atakayeiendesha nchi hiyo kwa njia hatari katika historia ya Marekani iwapo atachaguliwa.
Kundi hilo la maafisa, ambao tayari wametangaza kwamba hawatampigia kura Trump, ni pamoja na wakuu wa masuala ya usalama wa ndani, wakurugenzi wa ujasusi, washauri waandamizi wa rais na mwakilishi wa zamani wa biashara nchini Marekani.
Hata hivyo, Trump hakuwasaza hata maafisa hao wa usalama wa Republican, akiwataja kuwa ni watu wa tabaka la juu waliofeli, wanaojaribu kung'ang'ania madaraka na wanaostahili kuwajibishwa kwa kuufanya ulimwengu kutokuwa salama.
Vigogo wa Republican wana mashaka
Vigogo wa Republican wenyewe wanakiri kuwa mgombea wao anaonekana kukosa tajriba ya kuiendesha Marekani, ana ufahamu mdogo wa katiba ya nchi, sheria, asasi, uelewa na ustahimilivu kuwahusu watu wa dini tofauti, uhuru wa vyombo vya habari na kuheshimu uhuru wa idara ya mahakama.

Wagombea urais Marekani Hillary Clinton na Donald Trump

Hivi karibuni aliwashambulia kwa maneno makali wazazi wa mwanajeshi Muislamu wa Marekani aliyeuawa vitani Iraq na kusababisha baadhi ya viongozi wa Republican kujitenga naye na kutangaza hawatamuunga mkono katika azma yake ya kuwa rais wa Marekani.
Uchaguzi mkuu wa urais unatarajiwa mnamo tarehe 8 mwezi Novemba mwaka huu. Kura za maoni zinaashiria Clinton ana uungwaji mkono zaidi kuliko Trump miongoni mwa wapiga kura.

Hamilton ashinda British Grand Prix.

Lewis Hamilton

BINGWA wa mbio za magari kutoka nchini England, Lewis Hamilton, ameshinda ubingwa wa michuano ya British Grand Prix baada ya kumshinda mpinzani wake, Nico Rosberg, huku wote wakitumia gari aina ya Mercedes.

Huu ni ushindi wa tatu mfululizo kwa Hamilton katika mashindano ya nyumbani nchini England. Katika ushindi huo, Hamilton alitumia saa 1: 34 na sekunde 55, wakati mpinzani wake Rosberg akitumia saa 1:35 na sekunde 12.

Hata hivyo, Hamilton amedai kwamba hakuwa na uhakika wa kushinda kutokana na upinzani aliokutana nao katika michuano hiyo, ila amempa pongezi mpinzani wake kwa changamoto alizompa.

“Sidhani kama kuna mtu anaweza kuwa na furaha kama nilionayo, ukweli ni kwamba nina furaha ya hali ya juu, hii inamaanisha kwamba  British Grand Prix ni michuano bora kwetu.

“Nilikuwa na upinzani mkubwa nikawa na wasiwasi, lakini nashukuru ninazidi kutetea ubingwa wa michuano hii, nilikuwa ninauelewa uwezo wa Rosberg, hivyo nilikuwa na wakati mgumu wa kushinda kutokana na hali ya hewa.

“Mvua iliyokuwa inaendelea ilianza kunipa shida, ila niliweza kupambana hadi hatua ya mwisho,” alisema Hamilton.

Inadaiwa kuwa Hamilton ni miongoni mwa madereva 22 duniani wenye mvuto na idadi kubwa ya mashabiki, baada ya kushinda taji hilo mashabiki walijitokeza kwa wingi wakishangilia kwa kumwinua juu.

Eighteen injured in Mecca stampede: Saudi media

Every year, hundreds of thousands of pilgrims flock to Mecca to carry out the lesser umra pilgrimage during Ramadan -- especially during its last 10 days.

Riyadh (AFP) - Eighteen pilgrims have been injured in a stampede near Islam's holiest site, Saudi media reported on Saturday, as the kingdom continues to review safety after a deadly crush during last year's hajj.

The incident happened on Friday night near the Grand Mosque in Mecca, the Al-Riyadh newspaper said, as Muslims gathered in large numbers to mark the Night of Destiny, one of the high points of the holy fasting month of Ramadan.

All the injured were treated at the scene and none required admission to hospital, the newspaper cited a health official as saying.

Every year, hundreds of thousands of pilgrims flock to Mecca to carry out the lesser umra pilgrimage during Ramadan -- especially during its last 10 days.

They include the Night of Destiny, when the angel Gabriel is believed to have given the Prophet Mohammed the verses of the Koran.

The incident comes as Saudi authorities continue to unveil new safety measures for this year's hajj in September.

A crush at last year's hajj killed more than 2,000 pilgrims in the worst disaster to ever strike the annual ritual.

According to figures from foreign officials, at least 2,297 pilgrims died. Saudi Arabia issued a death toll of 769.

Newspapers reported on Friday that, among new security measures, hajj pilgrims this year will have to wear an electronic safety bracelet to store their personal information, including address and medical records.

The hajj and umra pilgrimages bring millions of Muslims to the holy places in Saudi Arabia every year.

Moise Katumbi ahukumiwa miaka 3 jela

Mgombea urais wa upinzani nchini Jamhuri ya Demokrasi ya Congo Moise Katumbi, amehukumiwa kifungo cha miaka 3 jela kwa kununua nyumba kinyume cha sheria kwenye mji ulio mashariki mwa nchi wa Lubumbashi.

Pia alipigwa faini ya dola milioni 6.

Katumbi hakuwa mahakamani wakati wa kutolewa kwa hukumu hiyo, baada ya kusafiri kwenda afrika kusini kupata matibabu siku moja baada ya serikali kutangaza waranti wa kukamatwa kwake kwa mashtaka tofauti.

Analaumiwa kwa kuwaajiri mamluki wa kigeni ili kipanga njama dhidi ya serikali.

Katumbi amekosoa hukumu hiyo, akisema kuwa ni jaribio la kutaka kuchelewesha kampeni yake ya kutaka kumrithi Rais Joseph Kabila mwezi Novemba.

Kampeni za lala salama Uingereza

Kambi mbili pinzani nchini Uingereza, ile inayopiga kampeni ya nchi hiyo kubakia kwenye Umoja wa Ulaya na ile inayotaka ijiondoe, Jumatano zinakamilisha kampeni kabla ya wananchi kuamua katika kura ya maoni.

Akizungumza katika mahojiano yake ya mwisho kwa lengo la kufikisha ujumbe wa kuwashawishi wananchi kupiga kura ya maoni kubakia katika Umoja wa Ulaya, inayochukuliwa kama hatua itakaoubadilisha mustakabali mzima wa Ulaya, Waziri Mkuu wa Uingereza, David Cameron, amesema hakuna mtu anayejua kile kitakachotokea.

Cameron ameliambia gazeti la Financial Times kwamba hawezi kubashiri matokeo yatakuwa ya aina gani. Amesema matokeo ya kura hiyo yanaweza kwenda upande wowote kwa sababu mchuano ni mkali, ingawa amewatolea wito Waingereza wakubali kubakia katika Umoja wa Ulaya.

Waziri Mkuu wa Uingereza, David Cameron

''Waingereza hawajiondoi. Tunajihusisha, tunaongoza, tunaleta mabadiliko, tunafanya mambo. Kama tukiondoka, majirani zetu wataendelea na mikutano na kufanya maamuzi ambayo yatatuathiri, yataiathiri nchi yetu, yataathiri kazi zetu, lakini hatutakuwepo. Watakuwa wanafanya maamuzi kuhusu sisi, bila ya sisi wenyewe kuwepo,'' amesema Cameron.

Katika jitihada za kuwashawishi wapiga kura ambao bado hawajafanya maamuzi kuhusu kura hiyo ya maoni, waendesha kampeni watazungumza katika mikutano yao ya mwisho ya hadhara. Baadae wawakilishi kutoka pande hizo mbili watakuwa na mdahalo wa mwisho wa televisheni kupitia Channel 4, utakaowashirikisha Nigel Farage, anayepinga Uingereza kubakia katika Umoja wa Ulaya na Alex Salmond anayeunga mkono Uingereza kubakia katika umoja huo.

Kampeni zalenga masuala ya kiuchumi na uhamiaji

Kampeni kuhusu Uingereza kubakia au kujiondoa katika Umoja wa Ulaya imekuwa ikizingatia masuala mawili muhimu ambayo ni uchumi na uhamiaji, huku kila upande ukimshutumu mwenzake kwa kueneza uvumi. Kampeni hiyo imekuwa ikifuatiliwa kwa karibu sana na masoko ya fedha.

Mamia ya viongozi wa makampuni makubwa duniani, akiwemo bilionea Richard Branson na tajiri anayemiliki vyombo vya habari Marekani, Michael Bloomberg, wametoa onyo kupitia gazeti la The Times, wakisema kama Uingereza itajiondoa katika Umoja wa Ulaya, hatua hiyo inaweza kusababisha ''madhara makubwa ya kiuchumi''.

Utafiti wa maoni unaonyesha kuwa kambi inayotaka Uingereza ibakie kwenye Umoja wa Ulaya inaweza kuongoza kwa ushindi mwembamba wa asilimia 51 ikilinganishwa na asilimia 49 za kambi inayotaka kujiondoa. Kura hiyo itapigwa kesho Alhamisi.

Mwenyekiti wa Halmashauri Kuu ya Umoja wa Ulaya, Jean-Claude Juncker

Wakati huo huo, Mwenyekiti wa Halmashauri Kuu ya Umoja wa Ulaya, Jean-Claude Juncker ameionya Uingereza kwamba kupiga kura ya kujiondoa kwenye umoja huo, kunaweza kuleta madhara kwa nchi hiyo ambayo pia yatahatarisha kila kitu ambacho kimefikiwa kwa pamoja na watu wa Ulaya.

Junker ambaye anatetea umuhimu wa Uingereza kubakia kwenye Umoja wa Ulaya, amesema nchi hiyo inaweza ''ikajidhuru yenyewe'' kwa sababu kujiondoa ni kinyume na yote ambayo umoja huo na Uingereza wanayapigania.

Muhimbili kutoa chakula kwa Wagonjwa wote

Ummi Mwalimu Waziri wa Afya na Maendeleo ya Jamii na Watoto

HOSPITALI ya Taifa ya Muhimbili, imeboresha huduma zake ambapo kuanzia Julai Mosi mwaka huu itakuwa inatoa chakula kwa wagonjwa wote waliolazwa hospitalini hapo.

Akizungumza na waandishi wa habari Dar es Salaam jana, Mkuu wa Kitengo cha Mawasiliano ya Umma hospitalini hapo, Aminiel Aligaesha alisema hospitali imeingia ubia na mzabuni ili kutoa huduma hiyo kwa wagonjwa wote wanaolazwa.

Alisema huduma hii imelenga kuwaondolea ndugu wa wagonjwa usumbufu na gharama za usafiri wakati wanapokwenda kuwaona waliolazwa karibu mara tatu kwa siku katika hospitali hiyo.

Badala yake, chakula kitaandaliwa hospitalini hapo. Ili kutoa huduma hiyo, kutakuwa na kuchangia gharama kidogo ambapo, mgonjwa atalazimika kutoa Sh 10,000 kwa kulazwa, Sh 10,000 kumwona daktari na Sh 30,000 kwa chakula.

Gharama hizo ni kwa siku 5 ambazo ni jumla ya Sh 50,000. Aligaesha alisema hospitali hiyo inataka kujikita katika majukumu yake ya msingi ambayo ni kushauri, kuchunguza na kutibu. “Hospitali inataka kuwaondolea adha ndugu wa wagonjwa ambao wamekuwa wakiingia gharama kubwa hususani usafiri wa kuja hospitalini mara tatu kwa siku,” alisema.

Made In Africa:Tanzanian made helicopter to start flying the African skies soon

Tanzania has begun building its own helicopters that will be taking to the skies soon. A Tanzanian made two seater chopper is in its final stages of production and will start flying trials once it granted permission by the Tanzania Civil Aviation Authority reports Daily news.

Arusha Technical College, department of Mechanical and Engineering initiated the program so as to build affordable choppers for Tanzanians to ease the country’s transport woes.

“We are complementing President Magufuli’s industrialisation policy in pioneering the first locally made helicopters that will be available to ordinary residents at affordable prices,” explained the man behind the ATC chopper project, Engineer Abdi Mjema

Initiated two months ago with the aim of using the chopper for surveillance, rescue and agricultural purposes but reframed for people transportation.

Now at 50 percent completion the pioneer air craft has a chassis as well as airframe ready and also the popular gasoline powered VW flat engine board that is also used to make the “Robinson” helicopters in the US, but the craft will be ready in three weeks’ time.

“Once we get the aviation authority approval, we shall complete the most sensitive part of the helicopter mounting the main rotor” said the engineer

Arusha city in the northern region of Tanzania is looking to make history as the first region to fly the first-ever Tanzanian manufactured helicopter in July 2016.

With a flying ceiling of 400 to begin with, due to the high altitude in the mountainous region and a non-pressurised cabin, the Prototype ATC helicopter will change things for the East African nation. The engineers will increase the flying height to reach the normal commercial chopper 8,000 feet above sea level heights with more complete and accomplished models.

According to the college, it can produce up to 20 choppers in a year when the project gets a nod from higher authorities.

“The Tanzania-made helicopters will fly before 2020  and specifically 2018, which is two years from now,” said Engineer Mjema

TANZANIA International Container Terminal (TICTS) envisages extending wings to neighbouring Rwanda, hardly a month after winning global respect as one of Africa’s most improved ports.

TICTS Executive Officer Paul Wallace

The US Journal of Commerce, which collects data on 140,000 port calls at 750 of the world’s container terminals, has acknowledged TICTS as one of the most improved ports in Africa.

“Everyone at the nation’s largest port is delighted that our efforts have been appreciated by such an authoritative body,” TICTS Chief Executive Officer Paul Wallace said in Dar es Salam over the weekend.

“It is truly an industry achievement,” Mr Wallace said of the recognition, adding: “This is just the start… the port is now poised for huge expansion over the coming few years.” He however attributed the great achievement to the commitment of the company’s valued employees and trust from TICTS parent company, Hutchison Port Holdings, which operate 48 ports in 25 countries.

The company has over the past few years invested over 210bn/- to generate 1.35trn/- in the Tanzanian economy through wharfage, royalties and rent.

According to Mr Wallace, the container handling firm is scheduled to open the Kigali office on July 1, 2016, to generate greater volumes through the port of Dar es Salaam. Already, the company has trained 16 young Tanzanian leaders who have just graduated in a year-long intensive management programme.

Kazi Services’ management experts Zuhura Muro and Petronella Mwasandube, with other formidable guest speakers, shared their wealth of experience in mentoring the young, gifted and potential future leaders of the East African port industry.

“The course blended management practices, self-learning, teamwork and financial analysis with on the job project management skills,” said Mr Wallace who sponsored the programme.

He expressed excitement over the profound talents in his organisation, saying “With such committed and motivated employees, the future of the port will be in capable hands beyond my years in Tanzania.”

Mr Wallace said the company was determined to build for the future in all areas of expanding business, citing an investment of over 40bn/- in new quay cranes, which arrive in November.

He particularly thanked the ports’ loyal customers, partners and Tanzania Ports Authority (TPA), with whom the company works closely to improve performance.

Dar es Salaam: Where Every Place Is A Dumping Ground

Heaps of garbage line the banks of the Msimbazi River where it meets Morogoro Road near Jangwani in Dar es Salaam.

MAYBE you have been traveling in the city by bus. You really do no not see much of a city traveling that way. Still, even by bus you are likely to see heaps of waste somewhere by the roadside.

In some homes loads of waste are buried everywhere in the homestead till the whole compound is pregnant with it. In Dar, however, you really see the dirty side of the city when you travel by train.

The commuter trains, which began meandering their paths in the city, a couple of years ago, pass mostly in some of its darkest corners. And in Dar es Salaam, the darker or the remotest the part of the city the bigger the more attractive it is to be a dump.

As the train runs in these parts of the city, you observe rubbish you would never imagine existed in such a city - the nation’s capital. It appears the rail is a big dump of the city where everybody can dump all sorts of waste as they will. All along the railway line from the city centre to its well out of town terminus, dumps dot the way.

The common type of waste in the heaps is the thin, black plastic bag. This kind of waste and the other kind, a bag known to most city inhabitants as Rambo, fill the dumps. Residents of the city use Rambo and other plastic bags in various ways, which is the hardest kind of pollutant to eliminate. I once saw a black plastic bag lying by the roadside. It looked rather stuffed, but so harmless.

I gave it a kick to send it farther away from the road. But I had kicked it a little too hard and punctured it. My foot sank into a mass of human waste- faeces. The black plastic bag has become a mobile toilet for all loafers!

It also serves well girls who want to hide their aborted fetus and carries a couple of other blacker evils with it. Plastic bottle too are quite a bother, but serve many a young men as a urinary. Heaps of waste harbouring it compound harms that come with it.

If I remember right, earlier this year the government announced that by June this year it should not be seen. June has come and is running to its end, but the thin plastic bags and other types particularly the black one are still there. An expert report says: “Plastic bags cause many minor and major issues in geographical terms. The most general issue with plastic bags is the amount of waste produced.

Many plastic bags end up on streets and are aesthetically displeasing. “Even when disposed of properly, they take many years to decompose and break down, generating large amounts of garbage over long periods of time. If not disposed of properly the bags can pollute waterways, clog sewers and have been found in oceans affecting the habitat of animals and marine creatures.”

Whereas the continual presence of plastic bags is a product of mere disobedience of the law and the state’s order, there are many factors contributing to lack of quick waste disposal.

One of them and the basic one at that is poor planning of the city. Indeed it is lack of planning! It is said that only 15 per cent of the Dar city is planned. The rest remains in haphazard construction of houses.

The result is lack of passage for vehicles to waste collection points, which consequently remain inaccessible and cause waste compilation. The narrow roads, which are resultant of poor planning or lack of it for that matter, cause congestion of traffic and delay a quick removal of waste. Waste trucks cannot make many trips necessary for complete clearance of waste heaps, hence long presence of waste at the collection centres.

But the city’s poor planning despite its inconveniences, is benefitting some people. Indeed it is a good number of them, who profit from the lack of passage ways where there ought to be a road.

Since many people cannot reach their houses by road, they cannot as a result keep their cars at home. Instead they park them overnight at some centre for a pay. Prayer premises and such places as the ruling party office premises have made the most of this poor planning of the city. These institutions have built enclosures in their premises for cars safekeeping at night.

For one vehicle they charge 5,000 to 10,000/- even more a night, depending on the size of the vehicle. However, heaps of waste anywhere in the country tells a lot about our performance and responsibility.

Earlier this year the government made yet another call to producers and users of plastic bags to change or desist from making or using them. Will they? In the spotlight mostly are plastic bags of lightweight which, de facto, have previously been prohibited. Their producers were ordered to stop producing them and sellers to stop their sales, to no avail.

Our country seems to be the dumping wild land for other nations. Their used cars, used shoes, old spoons, underwears, kitchenwares and hand-medown clothes are dumped here for a little price to undercut local producers. It is a business which has stagnated the growth of our industries. The government has just acted against phony phones. Once, the problem of ghost workers was surely ghostly.

The government literally has destroyed it. Our health depends largely on the purity of our environment. Species in it are a valuable natural resource. The Indian black crow has posed quite a threat there. The biggest excuse to destroy the aerial native of India has been lack of funds to buy the poison.

Basically though, corruption has been at the core of this fight. Can we succeed in the fight with Indian house crow- corvus splendens? The previous government often said it had no money to buy the deadly poison to the intelligent bird.

We expect that the fifth-phase government of Dr John Pombe Magufuli - a keen and efficient collector of taxes, has the necessary funds to buy the 3-chloro- ptoluidine hyrochloride, DRC-1339 or Starlicide a deadly poison to kill the intelligent bird and consign it to oblivion.

KOCHA MKUU WA YANGA ASEMA ANAIMANI NA KIKOSI CHAKE CHA LEO DHIDI YA MO BEJAIA

KOCHA mkuu wa Yanga, Hans Van De Pluijm amesema kuwa ana imani na kikosi chake kuwa kitacheza vizuri kwani ameweza kukaa nao kwa siku kadhaa na amewapa mbinu mbalimbali hasa wanapokuwa wapo ugenini na zaidi amewataka kutokufuata mchezo wa wapinzani wao.
Pluijm amesema hayo kupitia kwenye mtandao wa Shirikisho la Mpira wa Miguu Afrika (CAF) na kusema wameenda nchini Algeria kwa ushindi ila hawatataka kupoteza mchezo huo zaidi ushindi ndio wanachokitaka au kupata sare ambayo itakuwa na manufaa kuliko kupoteza kabisa.
"Siku chache nilizokaa na wachezaji na wakafanya mazoezi ya pamoja yanatosha kabisa kuweza kuondoka na ushindi kwani Nimewaambia wacheze mchezo wetu na zaidi wasiwafuate mchezo wao,"amesema Pluijm. Ninachoamini kuwa wachezaji wangu watafuata kile nachowaambia na zaidi wapinzani wangu watatumia uwanja wao wa nyumbani kucheza kwa kujiamini na sisi tutacheza kwa tahadhari kubwa sana.
Yanga wanacheza leo na Mo Bejaia ikiwa ni mchezo wa ufunguzi wa kundi A ambao utapigwa nchini Algeria saa sita na robo usiku wa saa za Afrika Mashariki. Katika mchezo huo watakosa huduma ya Nahodha wao Nadir Haroub 'Canavaro' anayetumikia kadi nyekundu na Juma Abdul ambaye ni majeruhi.

Samia awataka wanaume kumuinua mtoto wa kike

Makamu wa Raisi Samia Suluhu Hassan

Dar es Salaam. Makamu wa Rais, Samia Suluhu Hassan ameyataka mashirika yasiyo ya kiserikali nchini (NGO) kujenga utamaduni wa kuwashirikisha wanaume katika kampeni za kumuinua mtoto wa kike kwa lengo la kuleta mabadiliko katika jamii.

Samia ametoa kauli hiyo kwenye hafla ya uzinduzi wa Binti Club iliyofanyika sambamba na harambee ya ‘fadhili mtoto asome’ inayolenga kuchangisha fedha kwa ajili ya watoto 500 wa Wilaya ya Kinondoni iliyoandaliwa na Shirika la Binti Foundation.

Amesema wanaume kama mawakala wa mabadiliko wanapaswa kushirikishwa na wajue ajenda ili wawe mabalozi wazuri katika kuzungumzia umuhimu wa kumuinua mtoto wa kike kielimu, kiafya na kwenye masuala ya ujasiriamali.

"Penye mkusanyiko wa watu 100, ukiingiza wanaume 20 na wakajua madhumuni ya mkusanyiko wetu, wataenda kushawishi wenzao 20,000 huko nje," amesema.
