Tanzania will never prosper with corrupt Msian investments: Consultant

A development consultant has criticised Malaysian investments in Tanzania, saying that the country will never prosper in the absence of ruling elites whose "rent-seeking strategies" contribute to rather than subtract from the public good.

Brian Cooksey, an independent writer in Dar es Salaam, said that "it is one thing for politicians and bureaucrats to take a cut from a valid investment that generates significant employment, turns out useful products, and contributes to government revenue.

"But it is quite another for this group to take a corrupt cut from a project which derails a key national policy and imposes huge additional costs on end users and tax-payers," he added.

Serikali kupitia Wizara ya Elimu na Mafunzo ya Ufundi, imezuia uongozi wa vyuo vikuu nchini kuwalazimisha wanafunzi kuingia darasani au kufanya mitihani kwa siku zao za ibada.

Ingawa hazikutajwa, siku maalum za ibada zilizozoeleka kwa madhehebu mengi ni Ijumaa, Jumamosi na Jumapili.

Agizo la Serikali limetolewa na C.P. Mgimba kwa niaba ya Katibu Mkuu Wizara ya Elimu na Mafunzo ya Ufundi.

Barua hiyo ya Novemba 11, mwaka huu yenye kicha cha habari: “Wanafunzi kulazimishwa kuingia darasani au kufanya mitihani siku za ibada”, imepelekwa kwa Makamu Wakuu wa Vyuo, Wakuu wa Vyuo Vikuu Vishiriki; Wakuu wa Vyuo- Vyuo Vikuu na Vyuo Vishiriki vya Umma na Binafsi, Tanzania Bara.

“Wizara imepokea malalamiko kutoka kwa baadhi ya viongozi wa dini na wanafunzi

IMANI: Kama Unafanya Mambo Haya, Utajiri Kwako Ni Lazima

Kuwa na mafanikio makubwa na hatimaye kuwa tajiri ni kitu ambacho kinaonekana kuwa kigumu kwa wengi ama hakiwezekani kabisa. Hii yote inatokana na wengi kutokujua njia au mambo muhimu ya kufanya hadi kufikia mafanikio makubwa. Kutokana na hili wengi wamekuwa wakijiuliza wafanye nini au kitu gani kitakachowafanikisha katika maisha yao.

TAARIFA YA IKULU: SASA MASWI NAYE NJE

Katibu Mkuu Kiongozi, Balozi Ombeni Yohana Sefue, amemsimamisha kazi kwa muda Ndugu Eliakim Maswi, Katibu Mkuu ya Wizara ya Nishati na Madini, ili kupisha uchunguzi wa tuhuma dhidi yake, kama ilivyoelekezwa na Rais wa Jamhuri ya Muungano wa Tanzania, Mheshimiwa Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete.

Balozi Sefue amemsimamisha kazi Ndugu Maswi kuanzia leo, Jumanne, Desemba 23, 2014, kwa kutumia madaraka aliyonayo kama Mamlaka ya Nidhamu kwa Watumishi wa Umma wanaoteuliwa na Rais, wakiwemo Makatibu Wakuu.

Taarifa iliyotolewa na Ofisi ya Balozi Sefue mjini Dar es Salaam imesema kuwa amechukua hatua hiyo “Kwa mujibu wa Kifungu 4(3) (d) cha Sheria ya Utumishi wa Umma, Na. 8 ya mwaka 2002 (kama ilivyorekebishwa)” ambapo “Katibu Mkuu Kiongozi ndiye Mamlaka ya Nidhamu kwa Watumishi wa Umma wanaoteuliwa na Rais, wakiwemo Makatibu Wakuu.”

Badala yake, Balozi Sefue amesema kuwa Naibu Katibu Mkuu, Wizara ya Nishati na Madini, Mhandisi Ngosi C. Mwihava atakaimu nafasi ya Katibu Mkuu, Wizara ya Nishati na Madini, hadi uchunguzi dhidi ya Ndugu Eliakim C. Maswi utakapokamilika.

Taarifa hiyo ya Balozi Sefue pia imekariri kauli ya Rais Kikwete katika hotuba yake kwa Taifa jana, Jumatatu, Desemba 22, 2014 ambako Rais alisema:

“Kuhusu Katibu Mkuu wa Wizara ya Nishati na Madini, kwa vile ni Mtumishi wa Umma, anatawaliwa na Sheria na Kanuni za Utumishi wa Umma, hivyo nimeshaelekeza Mamlaka kuchunguza tuhuma zake na hatimaye ikibainika ana makosa hatua za kinidhamu zitachukuliwa.”

Ndugu Maswi, aliyekuwa Mwanasheria Mkuu Ndugu Frederick Werema pamoja na Mawaziri wawili walituhumiwa wakati wa Kikao cha Bunge kilichopita kuhusiana na Akaunti ya Tegeta Escrow.

Wakati huo huo, Rais Kikwete ameelekeza kuwa pamoja na hatua nyingine zinazochukuliwa, Shirika la Umeme (TANESCO) waendelee na majadiliano na IPTL kuhusu uwezekano wa kushusha tozo la uwekezaji (capacity charge) zaidi ya punguzo la awali lililopatikana kupitia Kituo cha Kimataifa cha Kusuluhisha Migogoro ya Kimataifa (ICSID).

Real ICT4D (Health) : STDs tested using Internet and mobile phones in Kenya

Kenyans who suspect they have sexually transmitted diseases ( STDs) can now order for tests anonymously and quickly through the internet or mobile phones to protect their privacy.

The new initiative, unveiled by Pathologists Lancet Kenya, comes amid recent research data revealing that lack of sufficient privacy in sexually transmitted infection (STI) testing clinics was one of the major barriers against uptake of STD tests in the country.

In addition, many Kenyans, especially the youth, often contract STDs during the December holidays, but privacy concerns impact negatively on the decision to seek testing and treatment.

Now Kenyans will be able to request the full range of STD tests, including gonorrhea, syphilis, herpes and HIV by booking anonymously through the internet or telephone without sharing their names or going to the clinic.

Blood and urine samples are then collected from any location in the country where the client is most comfortable with, usually away from the eyes of family members, friends, work colleagues or people familiar to them.

Alternatively, kits for collecting samples can be dispatched to the clients in sealed packages through courier and returned to the lab for testing. Once the results are ready, the client is notified to access them through a special, secure and restricted web portal.

[VIDEO] HIMBA - Another tribe like Maasai

FAST FACTS

1.  The Himba (singular: Omuhimba, plura: Ovahimba) are an ancient tribe in Namibia, closely related to the Herero (read more about the Herero here)

2.      Language: Otjihimba, a dialect of the Herero language

3.      Population: about 20,000 to 50,000 people

4.      They are a semi-nomadic, pastoral people who breed cattle and goats.

5.  Women tend to perform more labor-intensive work than men do, such as carrying water to the village, building homes and milking cows. Men handle the political tasks and legal trials.

6.  Their homes are simple, cone-shaped structures of saplings, bound together with palm leaves, mud and dung

7.  In the Himba culture a sign of wealth is not the beauty or quality of a tombstone, but rather the cattle you had owned during your lifetime, represented by the horns on your grave.

8. The Himba have been plagued by severe droughts, guerrilla warfare (during Namibian independence and the Angolan civil war) and the German forces that decimated other groups in Namibia. Despite Himba life nearly coming to a close in the 1980s, they have persevered and their people, culture and tradition remain

9.   The women are famous for rubbing their bodies with otjize, a mixture of butter fat and ochre, believed to protect their skins against the harsh climate. The red mixture is said to symbolize earth's rich red color and the blood that symbolizes life
