Pulling Strings for 2010

With such a large number of people coming to South Africa next year and with the attention that the country will receive during the 2010 FIFA World Cup™, it is the perfect opportunity for South Africans to showcase their talent and explore the business potential of such a mega-sporting event.
One South African is doing just this with his unique – and large – brand of puppetry which will no doubt have the crowds in awe as they are entertained by more than just the action on the pitch.
Daniel Popper is a young artist working and teaching in Cape Town. It was only after graduating from the University of Cape Town’s Michaelis School of Fine Art in 2006 that he first began manufacturing his massive artworks. Over the space of two years, working through trial and error, and a few hints from the internet, he slowly began a process that would lead to the enormous puppets he has now completed.
“When I made my first puppet it was for fun, an experiment. Since then I've taken various puppets to festivals and gatherings where people kept saying how lots of these would look amazing together on a field, at an event, so I came up with this idea to make giant soccer players for the World Cup,” says Popper.
These massive puppets stand at over five metres tall, almost big enough to look through a second floor window. The necessarily lightweight frame is manufactured out of a number of materials, from fabric and bamboo, to aluminium and foam. Each one of these giant structures is operated by a single puppeteer who is strapped into a harness below the puppet. Included in the puppet’s intricate design is a lighting system, which allows the giant art-forms to shine at night, changing their appearance and making their already incredible presence even more commanding.
Popper feels that these puppets offer people something special to the audience watching them. “The attraction is that they are giant; it is always eye catching to see something this big. While a lot of entertainment today is static and boring, these puppets move, they dance, and because of this they really capture people's imagination. They take people out of their environment for a moment, and they start to relax because the puppet reminds them that they are out to have fun,” says Popper.
Since last year Popper's aspirations for the tournament have grown, and he has been encouraged by the response to his prototypes. “It would be amazing if they could be all over the place,” he said, obviously excited for the influx of 450,000 expected visitors next year, many of whom will get to witness his puppets in action on the streets of Cape Town and other cities around South Africa.
Now running his own business, Popper credits the arrival of the 2010 FIFA World Cup for playing a big part in inspiring him to become an entrepreneur “I think that there are opportunities for everybody, but for creative people especially. For a lot of the artists in the country now is a chance for them to put their work out there for the rest of the world to see. This is history and we as artists can record that.”
His advice for other people looking to start up their own businesses ahead of the tournament next year? “Just go for it, don't be afraid to do it. It is tough but the opportunities are there, just be properly prepared.”
The giant football puppets will be performing for the first time at the friendly match between South Africa and Japan at the newly completed World Cup stadium, Nelson Mandela Bay , in Port Elizabeth on Saturday 14 November.

MAISHA YANAENDELEA

IBUA FILMS STAR TANZANIA YAHAMIA MWANZA

Majaji wakishoo love na yale madini yatakayowakilisha jiji la A-town.

Baada ya mchakato mzima wa kuibua vipaji vya wasanii chipukizi wa maigizo yaani IBUA Film Star Tanzania kuanzia Arusha, zoezi zima linahamia Mwanza katika Nyanza Shule ya msingi iliyopo Balewa Road tarehe 14 na 15 Novemba kabla ya kuhamia Dodoma.
Chipukizi waliofanikiwa kuiwakilisha mkoa wa Arusha ni pamoja na Salum Ahmed Shafii, Pauline Edward Munisi, Michael Elias Mrema, Mbara Meena na Enhard Haruna. Kutokana na mwamko mkubwa wa wasanii chipukizi, fomu za kujiunga na shindano la IBUA Film Star Tanzania zinaendelea kutolewa maeneo mbali mbali na mikoa husika. Hii ni kuwawezesha wasanii chipukizi kupata nafasi ya kuonyesha uwezo wao ya kuendeleza vipaji vyao na kuviacha vikipotea kwa kukosa njia ya kuvikuza. Usaili wa mikoani utaandaliwa vipindi maalum na kuonyeshwa kupitia mojawapo ya runinga hapa nchini.
Taasisi ya YEC Production, inayojihusisha na kukuza na kuibua vipaji kwa vijana katika ulingo wa filamu nchini, imegundua njia pekee ya kuibua vipaji hivyo na kuviokoa visipotee kwa kuanzisha shindano maalum la kusaka vipaji. Washiriki wataonyeshwa kwenye runinga kupitia kipindi maalum ambapo watazamaji watahusishwa kumpata staa halisi wa filamu Tanzania.
Mbali na kuviendeleza vipaji vyao pia washiriki watapata mafunzo katika nyanja zote kuanzia za uandishi wa muongozo (scripting) hadi uigizaji bora na kuwawezesha kufikia malengo yao.
Vigezo vilivyotumika katika kumsaka msanii huyo chipukizi ni kuwa na umri wa miaka 16 ikiwa ni pamoja na uelewa. Hata kutokuonekana katika tamthilia au sinema ya aina fulani hapa nchini hicho pia ni kigezo kimojawapo ambacho ni kizuri, kwani vijana wanaochipukia ndiyo wanahitaji msaada mkubwa katika kuibuliwa vipaji, tofauti na wakongwe ambao tayari wamejitangaza.
YEC, imeahidi kuyaangalia matatizo yanayowakabili wasanii kwa kina na kuahidi kutoyarudia, kama yanavyofanywa na baadhi ya wasanii wakongwe, ndiyo maana wameamua kuingia mikataba ya mwaka mmoja na washindi watakaofika kumi bora, ili kuliepuka tatizo hilo.
Sambamba na mikataba hiyo kwa watakaofika kumi bora, pia watatoa nafasi ya kuwapeleka shule watakaoingia tano bora kwa ajili ya kujiendeleza mambo mbali mbali ya sanaa ambapo atakayeibuka kinara atapewa zawadi nyingine maalum.
Pia mchakato wa kuwapata washindi kumi hadi tano bora utaanzia kwenye 20 bora, ambapo watacheza filamu mbili huku majaji wakiangalia kipaji cha msanii mmoja baada ya mwingine na kuendelea kuchujwa hadi kupatikana mshindi.
Filamu watakayocheza zitakuwa katika mandhari ya mtanzania halisi, huku asilimia 60 ya mauzo ya kazi hizo yatakayopatikana zitakuwa kwa ajili ya wasanii wenyewe.
Kutokana na kuona umuhimu wa suala hilo, Baraza la Sanaa la Taifa (BASATA) liliamua kutoa vibali halali vya kuendesha mchakato huo, ikiwa ni pamoja na kupewa baraka na chama cha hakimiliki Tanzania (COSOTA) ya kusimamia kazi hiyo.
Mikoa husika katika mchakato wa kwanza ni Arusha, Mbeya, Zanzibar, Mwanza, Dodoma na Dar es Salaam lakini wigo wa mikoa utaongezeka mwaka hadi mwaka.

SUMATRA YATEUA WAKALA WA UKAGUZI WA UTEKELEZAJI WA MASHARTI YA LESENI ZA USAFIRISHAJI ABIRIA MIJINI

Mkurugenzi mkuu wa Sumatra Israel Sekilasa.

Katika kuimarisha usimamizi wa utoaji huduma za usafiri na kuondoa kero kwa wakazi wa Jiji la Dar es Salaam, Mamlaka ya Udhibiti Usafiri wa Nchi Kavu na Mjini (SUMATRA) imeteua Kampuni ya Majembe Auction Mart kuwa wakala wake wa kufuatilia utekelezaji wa masharti ya leseni ya usafirishaji abiria kwa mabasi yanayotoa huduma ya usafiri katika Mkoa wa Dar es Salaam (Daladala) na pia mabasi ya Mikoani yanayoanzia Kituo Kikuu cha Ubungo.
Kampuni ya Majembe Auction Mart ambayo imeteuliwa kufanya kazi hiyo kwa kipindi cha mwaka mmoja itatekeleza majukumu waliyopewa kwa kushirikiana na Jeshi la Polisi kupitia Kikosi cha Usalama Barabarani. Moja ya majukumu makubwa ya Kampuni hiyo itakuwa ni kusimamia na kufanya ukaguzi wa mara kwa mara kwa mabasi ya Daladala yanayotoa huduma katika Jiji la Dar es Salaam na viunga vyake ili kuhakikisha kuwa masharti ya leseni ya usafirishaji abiria yanafuatwa na watoa huduma ili hatimaye huduma ya usafiri katika Jiji iwe bora na yenye kukidhi mahitaji na matarajio ya wakazi wa Dar es Salaam.
Ili huduma ya usafiri katika Jiji iendelee kuwa bora zaidi, ni matarajio ya Mamlaka kuwa wamiliki, madereva pamoja na makondakta wa mabasi ya Daladala watatoa ushirikiano unaostahili kwa Majembe Auction Mart na Kikosi cha Usalama Barabarani wakati wa utekelezaji wa majukumu yao. Aidha wadau na wananchi kwa ujumla wanaombwa kuendelea kutoa ushirikiano kwa mamlaka zinazosimamia usafiri pamoja na Kampuni ya Majembe kwa lengo la kuimarisha usimamizi na kuboresha huduma hii muhimu kwa wakazi wa Jiji la Dar es Salaam.
Mamlaka ya SUMATRA itafuatilia na kusimamia kwa karibu sana utendaji wa wakala Majembe Auction Mart kwa mujibu wa Sheria na Taratibu ili kuondoa kero za usafiri kwa wakazi wa Dar es Salaam.
Tuchukue fursa hii pia kuwakumbusha wananchi kupunguza purukushani kwa kupanga mstari wakati wa kupanda mabasi.

Benitez: We can still win title

Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez.

Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez refused to concede that the title is out of his side's reach despite being 11 points adrift of Premier League leaders Chelsea after a 2-2 draw with Birmingham on Monday.
The Reds have won just one in nine and went into the game against the strugglers on a run of six defeats in eight games. Even though the miserable run continued - and Yossi Benayoun and Albert Riera were added to Liverpool's injury list with hamstring tears - Benitez insists he is not troubled by the bigger picture.
"I think that for the last three weeks to a month, it's been the same," said Benitez. "We only think about one game at a time so I can't talk about anything else, just three points, so I won't talk about the table or positions.
"We won six games in a row before and when we were under pressure we won against Manchester United, playing really well and the character has been fantastic but we couldn't achieve the three points against Birmingham."
Injury concernsBenitez has acknowledged that Liverpool's poor luck with injuries has been a key part in their poor start to the season. Fernando Torres was absent against Birmingham with a groin problem and remains doubtful for the game against Manchester City after the international break, having been withdrawn from Spain duty.
As well as Benayoun and Riera, Benitez also revealed that Danish defender Daniel Agger was struggling with a back problem to even taint the good news of Steven Gerrard coming off the bench to score from the spot after a groin problem of his own. But Benitez is hoping that the international break will finally bring some good news on the injury front, which should lead to an improvement in results.
"We have some players here and we can work with them but there's a difference in match fitness and to be available," said the 49-year-old. "Torres had no confidence so he couldn't play so he's started his treatment. He has to work with physios and try to improve and be ready so we are not talking about an operation, we are talking about treating him properly.
"It's not a deadline so it's a case of seeing how he reacts every day. After the international break, we will see. At least we have Gerrard and Alberto Aquilani coming back and maybe three or four more will be available. We can manage maybe a little bit better."
Birmingham manager Alex McLeish was delighted with his team's display at Anfield, and particularly with a first goal in English football for Ecuador forward Christian Benitez. "Chucho is a handful and it'll do him the world of good," said McLeish. "As they say, you wait ages for a bus to come along and loads come along and hopefully that'll be the case for Chucho and Cameron.
"We'll maybe look back and think we'll never have a better chance of getting three points at Anfield. If we can marry his (Chucho) culture to ours then we've got a superb wee player there. It's a little alien to the game he played in and he's got to get used to that and realise that everyone means the best for him. He's adapting well."

Wenger unconcerned by goals against!!

Arsene Wenger

Arsene Wenger has no doubts Arsenal's defence will soon be among the meanest in the Barclays Premier League once again. The Gunners head to Wolverhampton Wanderers for today's late afternoon kick-off on the back of some fine form, looking to extend an unbeaten run of 12 matches in all competitions.
However, while Arsenal may be the leading scorers in the top flight with 32 goals from the opening ten matches, they have also conceded 13, more than any other of the top four. Wenger, though, does not feel overly concerned.
"We can score goals and open teams up, which is a good basis to have confidence," he said. "It also makes you keen to work on the defensive side of your game. That is a concern, but I do not think it is a problem.
I am happy with our team-work defensively and confident our defensive record will improve.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger
"When you analyse the numbers a bit deeper, we conceded goals in high-scoring games where our attention eased off a bit. Also, we have had something like only 36 shots against us, which means defensively we are quite sure," said Wenger. "I am happy with our team-work defensively and confident our defensive record will improve."
Despite leaking the odd goal or two, Arsenal's new central defensive partnership of Thomas Vermaelen and veteran William Gallas has impressed. Belgian international Vermaelen, a £10m summer signing from Ajax, has slotted straight into the heart of the backline, in the wake of Kolo Toure's move to Manchester City.
With Johan Djourou unavailable until spring as he recovers from knee surgery, Philippe Senderos and Mikael Silvestre provide the back-up for what is set to be a hectic return to action following the international break.
Wenger, though, insisted: "At the moment, I am not tempted to rotate [my centre backs]. I do not like to rotate too much in central defence because we are in a position where they have a good understanding and every point is vital, so it is not worth to take a gamble if I am not forced to do it."
The Arsenal manager added: "Senderos is coming back into a good condition, Silvestre is working very hard and looking very good in training, so we are covered, but of course, you want to keep everybody in match fitness."
Vermaelen paid tribute to the way his defensive team-mates helped him settle quickly at Emirates Stadium.
"William is playing very well this year and it makes it easier for me to play in this team," said the Belgian. "It is important to have these good players because it makes it easier to fit in." story by www.fifa.com

With hunger rising, food emerges as key to security, poverty and climate!!

UN General Secretary Ban Ki Moon.

An upward spike in the number of hungry people worldwide, and a realization that long-term challenges lie ahead in feeding the planet’s growing population, are pushing food security into the centre of global policy concerns for the first time in decades. What’s more, policy-makers are finding that food security solutions are directly tied to other key objectives.
Under pressure from dwindling purchasing power since last year’s economic crash, the number of malnourished people in the world has now surpassed a staggering one billion. Food prices – although down globally from mid-2008 levels – continue to remain high in many of the poorest countries, as drought and floods take a toll on livestock and farmlands. Spurred by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon’s High-Level Task Force on the Global Food Security Crisis, donors pledged $20 billion at the G-8 meeting in L’Aquila, Italy, in June this year, where 26 developed and developing nations endorsed a hard-hitting action plan. The “L’Aquila principles” notably place agricultural productivity and support for poor farmers on a par with emergency food aid, usually the more dramatic and better-bankrolled activity. Emergency aid, nevertheless, is now severely under-funded in relation to the impact of economic and weather-related shocks. The World Food Programme is urgently seeking to regain its level of 2008 support, when it led an $8 billion emergency mobilization against hunger, the largest in history.

Philanthropist Bill Gates has announced that his multi-billion dollar foundation will now focus mainly on food security. Making poor farmers more productive, he said, will have a massive impact on tackling world hunger. From 16-18 November 2009, the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) will hold a summit on food security, following up on its June 2008 emergency meeting. The Rome summit, says FAO Director-General Jacques Diouf, aims to “forge a broad consensus on eradication of hunger in the world.” Secretary-General Ban, who will attend, last week assigned inter-agency task force coordinator David Nabarro to also serve as his Special Representative for Food Security and Nutrition.

WATOTO 246,927 KUPEWA VYANDARUA VYENYE DAWA VYA KUJIKINGA NA MARALIA MKOANI RUVUMA!!

Mama Salma Kikwete na watoto.

Na Anna Nkinda - Maelezo, Ruvuma
05/11/2009 Jumla ya watoto 246,927 walio chini ya umri wa miaka mitano wanatarajiwa kupewa bure vyandarua vyenye dawa ili kuweza kupunguza tatizo la kuugua pamoja na vifo vinavyotokana na ugonjwa wa maralia katika mkoa wa Ruvuma.
Hayo yamesemwa jana na mganga mkuu wa mkoa huo Dk. Daniel Malekela wakati wa uzinduzi wa kampeni ya kugawa vyandarua bila malipo kwa watoto wenye umri wa chini ya miaka mitano ulifanywa na Mke wa Rais Mama Salma Kikwete katika kituo cha Afya Madaba mkoani Ruvuma.
Dk. Malekela alisema kuwa walifanya sensa ya kutambua idadi ya watoto wanaostahili kupata vyandarua hivyo na jumla ya vyandarua 274,687 vimeshasambazwa katika vijiji na mitaa 539 ya mkoa huo hii inamaana kuwa kuna ziada ya vyandarua 27,760 ili na wale watoto waliozaliwa baada ya sensa kupita wapate
Licha ya kugawa vyandarua vyenye dawa mkoa huo pia unatarajia kuviwekea dawa vyandarua vipatavyo 254,400 vinavyotumika katika kaya bila jamii kuchangia gharama zozote zile.
"Tumeamua kufanya kampeni hii kwani katika tafiti ya kitaifa iliyofanywa mwaka 2007/2008 inaonyesha kuwa ni kaya nne tu kati ya 10 zinatumia chandarua kimoja chenye dawa hii inaonyesha kuwa kaya nyingi katika jamii yetu hazitumii vyandarua vyenye dawa na hivyo kuwa katika hatari ya kuambukizwa ugonjwa wa malaria", alisema Dk. Malekela.
Aliendelea kusema kuwa takwimu za mwaka 2008 zinaonyesha kuwa asilimia 55 ya wagonjwa wote waliopata huduma katika vituo vya kutolea huduma wenye umri chini ya miaka mitano waliugua ugonjwa wa maralia na vifo chini ya miaka mitano vilikuwa ni asilimia 56 ya vifo vyote vilivyotolewa taarifa.
Akizindua kampeni hiyo Mama Kikwete ambaye pia ni Mwenyekiti wa Taasisi ya Wanawake na Maendeleo (WAMA) alisema kuwa lengo la Serikali kutoa vyandarua hivi ni kuwakinga watoto dhidi ya ugonjwa wa maralia na si vinginevyo kwani kumekuwa na tabia ya baadhi ya watu kuviuza na wengine hata kuvivulia samaki haya ni matumizi mabaya ya vyandarua hivi.
Mama Kikwete alisema kuwa kila mtoto anayo haki ya kulala ndani ya chandarua kilichowekwa dawa ya kuua mbu waenezao ugonjwa wa maralia ili kupunguza kiwango cha vifo vitokanavyo na ugonjwa huo.
"Ninawaomba na ninawasisitizia wazazi wote kuwa ni muhimu kumuwahisha mtoto Hospitali pindi anapoonyesha dalili za kuugua ugonjwa wa maralia ndani ya masaa 24 hii inaweza kuokoa maisha yake kwani kumchelewesha ni hatari sana pia baadhi yenu muache tabia ya kuwapeleka watoto wenu kwa waganga wa kienyeji kwani utakuta mtoto anadalili zote za maralia lakini mzazi anampekea kwa waganga wa kienyeji jambo ambalo kwa kiasi kikubwa linaweza kupelekea kifo cha mtoto wako", alisema.
Ugonjwa wa maralia unashika nafasi ya kwanza katika mkoa wa Ruvuma kwani kuna idadi kubwa ya vifo vinavyotokana na ugonjwa huo kwa kiwango cha asilimia 23.9 pia takwimu za mwaka 2004 - 2008 zinaonyesha kuna idadi kubwa ya wagonjwa wa maralia mwaka hadi mwaka. Katika kipindi hiki asilimia 50.3 ya wagonjwa wote wa maralia walikuwa ni watoto chini ya umri wa miaka mitano na zaidi ya miaka mitano walikuwa ni asilimia 49.7.
Wakati huohuo Taasisi ya WAMA iliwapatia kituo cha afya Madaba msaada wa vitanda vya kujifungulia viwili, Delivery kit moja, vitanda vya Hospitali vitano, magodoro matano, mashuka kumi,Stethosope moja, mzani wa kupimia uzito wa watoto moja, mzani wa kupimia uzito wa watu wazima mmoja na trolley dressing moja. Thamani ya vifaa vyote hivi ni Tshs.4,483,000/=.

Marwa aliyasema hayo jana mjini hapa alipokuwa anakabidhi bendera ya Taifa kwa mwanariadha nyota Francis Naali, aliyeanzisha ngwe ya mwisho ya mbio hizo zinazodhaminiwa na Kampuni ya Bia Tanzania (TBL) kupitia Bia yake ya Kilimanjaro.
Naali alikuwa anaanzisha mbio kumalizia kilomita 104 kati ya 567 walizokimbia wanariadha zaidi ya 70 tangu kuanza kwa mbio hizo Jumapili iliyopita jijini Dar es Salaam na kuendelea kwa siku nne mfululizo, zikipita katika mikoa ya Pwani, Tanga na hatimaye Kilimanjaro.
“Jamani, nimehamasika sana na ninawashukuru Bia ya Kilimanjaro kwa kuipa Same heshima ya kuwa na kituo cha mbio hizi. Binafsi nimehamasika na ninatangaza rasmi kwamba, kuanzia sasa nitaweka mkazo katika riadha wilayani kwangu.
wakiianza ngwe ya mwisho ya mbio hizo.
Naye Meneja Masoko wa TBL, David Minja akiwa mwenye tabasamu, alisema: “Tunajivunia kampeni hii ya kupandisha bendera katika Mlima Kilimanjaro, na kikubwa tunashukuru kwa jinsi Watanzania walivyopokea kampeni hii ya “Fikisha Tanzania Katika Hatua za Juu”. Tunajivunia mlima mrefu kuliko yote Afrika na tunajivunia bia yetu ya Kilimanjaro…”
Kauli ya shukrani kwa wakazi wa mikoa waliyopitia wanariadha hao ilitolewa pia na Meneja wa Bia ya Kilimanjaro, George Kavishe.
Alisema; “Leo ni siku ya nne ya mbio hizi za aina yake na tunashukuru kwa mwamko ambao Watanzania wameuonyesha kote tulikopita.Sisi wa Bia ya Kilimanjaro tuko kamili na tunajipanga kuhakikisha mbio hizi zinapata mafanikio zaidi na zaidi, lengo likiwa kwenda sambamba na umaarufu wa mlima wa Kilimanjaro.”
Bia hiyo, ndiyo inayozidhamini klabu kongwe na maarufu zaidi katika soka nchini, Simba na Yanga, pia ni mdhamini wa muda mrefu wa mbio za kimataifa za Marathoni za Kilimanjaro na zile zinazoshirikisha wanariadha kutoka zaidi ya nchi 25 duniani.
Pia ni wadhamini wa Tuzo za Muziki za Kilimanjaro. Imekuwa pia ikidhamini michuano ya mpira wa kikapu ya mkoani Dar es Salaam `RBA Kili’.

Wanawake wanaopigwa na kuachwa na waume zao wilayani Mbarari kwa kupima virusi vya ukimwi watakiwa kutoa taarifa kwa Mama Kikwete

Mama Salma Kikwete.
Na Anna Nkinda - Maelezo, Mbarali
Mke wa Rais Mama Salma Kikwete amewataka wanawake wilayani Mbarali ambao watapigwa na waume zao au kupewa talaka kutokana na kitendo cha kwenda kupima virusi vya Ugonjwa wa UKIMWI wampe taarifa ili aweze kuchukua hatua na kulishughulikia tatizo hilo.
Mama Kikwete ambaye pia ni Mwenyekiti wa Taasisi ya Wanawake na Maendeleo (WAMA) alitoa wito huo jana wakati akiongea na wananchi wa wilaya hiyo mara baada ya kukabidhi msaada wa vifaa mbalimbali vya afya katika Hospitali ya wilaya Mbarali.
Aidha Mama Kikwete alitoa namba yake ya simu ya mkononi ambayo ni 0754294450 kwa wanawake hao ili waweze kumpigia au kumtumia ujumbe mfupi wa maneno pindi waume zao watakapowanyanyasa kutokana na kitendo cha wao kwenda kupima kwaajili ya kujua afya zao.
"Baadhi ya wanaume siyo waaminifu katika ndoa zao wanakuwa na mahusiano ya kimapenzi na wanawake wengine na hivyo kuhatarisha usalama wa ndoa zao kwani wengi wao ndiyowanaoleta UKIMWI majumbani, sasa kwanini wewe uwe na ujasiri wa kwenda kupima yeye aje kukupiga au kukupa talaka? Huu si unyanyasaji wa kijinsia?", aliuliza Mama Kikwete.
Aliendelea kusema kuwa ili kupunguza kasi ya maambukizi ya ugonjwa wa UKIMWI katika wilaya ya Mbarali kila mtu anatakiwa kuwa mwaminifu kwa mpenzi mmoja aliyekuwa naye au kama hatakuwa mwaminifu achukue tahadhari.
Akisoma taarifa ya huduma ya afya na uzazi Dk. Somoka Mwakapalala ambaye ni mganga mkuu wa wilaya ya Mbarali alisema kuwa wilaya hiyo ina jumla ya wanawake wenye uwezo wa kuzaa (kuanzia miaka 15 - 49) 69,420.
Alisema kuwa idadi ya akina mama wanaojitokeza katika upimaji wa VVU kwa hiari ili kuzuia maambukizi kutoka kwa mama kwenda kwa mtoto (PMTCT) ni ndogo kwani kwa mwaka 2008 wanawake wajawazito waliohudhuria kliniki walikuwa 11,875 na waliokubali kupima kwa hiari walikuwa 4583 sawa na asilimia 39".
Dk. Somoka alisema, "Hali hii inatokana na baadhi ya kina baba kuwazuia wake zao wasipime na kama wakipima kwa siri na kugundulika kuwa wameammbukizwa virusi vya UKIMWI wanawake hao hutalikiwa kwa lazima na waume zao pia ushiriki mdogo wa kina baba katika kuboresha Afya ya uzazi na upimaji wa Virusi Vya UKIMWI (VVU)".
Hospitali hiyo imepata mashine mpya ya kupima Virusi vya Ukimwi (CD4 Machine) kutoka shirika lisilo la kiserikali la Walter Reed na hivyo kupunguza kero kwa akinamama ya kusubiri majibu ya vipimo kwa muda mrefu.
Aliendelea kusema kuwa, Katika kampeni ya upimaji ya hiari ya mwaka 2007 watu waliojitokeza kupima kwa hiari walikuwa ni 24, 350 kati ya hao wanawake ni 14,875 na wanaume ni 9,475 waliopatikana na virusi vya UKIMWI ni 3,186 sawa na asilimia 13.1.
"Idadi ya watu waishio na virusi vya UKIMWI waliosajiliwa katika vituo vya kutolea dawa za kupunguza makali ya ugonjwa huo ni 5,410 kati ya hao wanaotumia dawa ni 2118 sawa na asilimia 39.2", alisema.
Wilaya hiyo ina vituo 47 vya kutolea huduma ya afya kati ya hivyo vinavyotoa huduma za Afya ya uzazi na mtoto ni 34 na vinavyotoa huduma ya kuzuia maambukizi ya virusi vya UKIMWI kutoka kwa mama kwenda kwa mtoto ni 12.
Ili kuboresha huduma ya uzazi katika Hospitali hiyo, Taasisi ya WAMA ilitoa vitanda vya kujifungulia viwili, Delivery kit moja, vitanda vya Hospitali vitano, magodoro matano, mashuka kumi,Stethosope moja, mzani wa kupimia uzito wa watoto moja na mzani wa kupimia uzito wa watu wazima mmoja . Thamani ya vifaa vyote hivi ni Tshs.5,783,000/=

SERIKALI YAOMBWA KUJENGA MABWENI KWA AJILI YA WANAFUNZI WA KIKE AMBAO WAZAZI WAO WANAFANYA KAZI ZA KUHAMAHAMA!!

Prof. Jumanne Magembe Waziri wa Elimu na Mafunzo ya Ufundi.

Na Anna Nkinda - Maelezo, Chunya
03/11/2009 Serikali imeombwa kujenga mabweni angalau mawili katika kila shule wilayani Chunya kwa ajili ya wanafunzi wasichana wanaotoka katika jamii ya wafugaji, wavuvi na wachimbaji ambao wazazi wao wana tabia ya kuhamahama na kusababisha adha kwa wanafunzi hao.
Ombi hilo limetolewa jana na wanafunzi wa kike wa wilaya hiyo wakati wakisoma risala yao kwa Mke wa Rais Mama Salma Kikwete aliyekuwa na ziara ya kikazi ya siku moja wilayani humo na hivyo kupata muda wa kuongea na wanafunzi hao katika ukumbi wa Moon Light.
Akisoma risala hiyo kwa niaba ya wenzake Pendo Gabriel ambaye ni Mwanafunzi wa kidato cha tatu katika shule ya sekondari Kiwanja alisema kuwa hivi sasa wanafunzi wengi wanaotoka katika jamii hiyo wamekuwa wakipanga mitaani na hivyo kupata kero mbalimbali ambazo zinawapotezea muda wa kujisomea.
"Tunaamini kuwa kujengwa kwa mabweni hao kutaondoa adha ya kupanga nyumba mitaani na kupunguza vishawishi vibaya ambavyo vingeweza kusababisha kupatikana kwa mimba zisizotarajiwa kwani ndani ya miaka minne tangu mwaka 206 hadi mwaka huu wanafunzi wenzetu 114 wa shule za sekondari wamepata ujauzito na hivyo kukatiza masomoyao", alisema Pendo.
Aidha wanafunzi hao pia waliiomba Wizara ya Nishati na Madini kupitia shirika lake la Umeme Nchini (TANESCO) kuweka kipaumbele katika kuzipatia umeme shule za sekondari zilizo karibu na gridi ya Taifa kwa gharama nafuu.
Akiongea na wanafunzi hao Mama Kikwete ambaye pia ni Mwenyekiti wa Taasisi ya Wanawake na Maendeleo (WAMA) alisema kuwa hivi sasa Serikali inalipa kipaombele suala la elimu hapa nchini kwa kuhakikisha kuwa kila kata inakuwa na Shule ya Sekondari.
"Mnachotakiwa kufanya ninyi kama wanafunzi ni kusoma kwa bidii na kuepuka vishawishi ambavyo vitawasababishia kupata Ugonjwa wa UKIMWI na mimba za utotoni na hivyo kukatisha masomo yenu", alisema Mama Kikwete.
Taasisi ya WAMA iliwapatia wanafunzi hao zawadi za jezi pamoja na mipira ambayo wataitumia katika mazoezi mara baada ya kumaliza muda wa masomo yao.
Wilaya ya Chunya ina shule za Sekondari 20 kati ya hizo 18 ni za Serikali na mbili zinamilikiwa na Jumuia ya wazazi na idadi ya wanafunzi katika shule za Serikali ni 5690 wasichana ni 2,404 na wavulana 3286.

MBIO KUELEKEA MLIMA KILIMANJARO!!

Meneja wa bia ya Kilimanjaro George Kavishe.

Na Mwandishi Wetu
CHAMA cha Riadha mkoani Dar es Salaam (DAAA), kimeimwagia sifa Kampuni ya Bia Tanzania (TBL) kupitia bia yake ya Kilimanjaro kutokana na kuanzisha mbio za aina yake za kukimbiza bendera ya Taifa kutoka Dar es Salaam hadi kilele cha Mlima wa Kilimanjaro.
Bia ya Kilimanjaro ndiyo inayodhamini mbio hizo zinazoshirikisha wanariadha nyota zaidi ya 70 wanapokezana bendera kila baada ya kilomita kati ya kumi na 12.
Akizungumza mjini Chalinze wilayani Bagamoyo juzi, Katibu wa DAAA, Kapteni Mstaafu Lucas Nkungu alisema kwamba, Bia ya Kilimanjaro imekuja na kitu kipya na chenye kuongeza ladha katika riadha chini.
“Tumefarijika sana kwa Bia ya Kilimanjaro kuibuka na aina hii ya mbio ambazo mara nyingi tumekuwa tukizisikia au kuziona katika nchi za wenzetu waliopiga hatua katika riadha,” alisema Nkungu ambaye mkoa wake ulipewa jukumu la kuwa mwenyeji wa uzinduzi wa mbio hizo zenye kauli mbiu ya “Fikisha Tanzania Katika Hatua za Juu”.
Nkungu aliyeibatiza Bia ya Kilimanjaro kuwa `Mwanamichezo wa Kweli’, alisema mbio hizo zitachochea ukuaji wa riadha na hivyo kuwa na nafasi nzuri ya kuwakomboa wanamichezo waliopo na wanaotarajiwa kujikita katika riadha.
Mbali ya kuanzisha kwa mbio za kukimbiza bendera ya taifa kuelekea kilele cha Mlima Kilimanjaro, Bia ya Kilimanjaro imekuwa mstari wa mbele katika kudhamini michezo nchini.
Bia hiyo, licha ya kuwa wadhamini wakuu wa klabu kongwe na maarufu zaidi katika soka nchini, Simba na Yanga, pia ni mdhamini wa muda mrefu wa mbio za kimataifa za Marathoni za Kilimanjaro na zile zinazoshirikisha wanariadha kutoka zaidi ya nchi 25 duniani.
Ndio wadhamini wa Tuzo za Muziki za Kilimanjaro. Imekuwa pia ikidhamini michuano ya mpira wa kikapu ya mkoani Dar es Salaam `RBA Kili’.
Naye Meneja wa Bia ya Kilimanjaro, George Kavishe aliye katika msafara wa wanamichezo ulioanza juzi jijini Dar es Salaam, akizungumzia mbio za bendera ya taifa, anasema; “Hii ni namna pekee ya kufurahia na kujikumbusha mafanikio yetu ya kiwango cha juu, ndiyo maana kampeni hii inaitwa ‘Fikisha Tanzania Katika Hatua ya Juu Zaidi.’’
Safari ya kukimbiza bendera hiyo katika miji kadhaa kati ya Dar es Salaam na Moshi, mkoani Kilimanjaro inatarajiwa kufikia kilele Ijumaa.

Dar es salaam City.

The Book of Dar is a photographic book of one of Africa ’s largest most vibrant cities. It simply tells the story of daily life in Dar es Salaam and, through the lens, portrays strong images of the country’s rich history and lively blend of traditional cultures and immigrant communities. The book is the result of a journey of discovery for two photographers living inDar es Salaam. It is an impression of this diverse city, as seen through their lenses.
Every day life for Dar es Salaam’s four million inhabitants is captured in a varietyof ways: from umbrellas providing shade from the hot African sun for young andold, the traditional dhows meandering along the coastline, the numerous colourful kangas and kitenges traditionally worn by Tanzanian women, the long line of ships awaiting their turn to enter the port, to people drinking tea or coffee on the corner of the street.
The images provide a snapshot of life in different municipalities of Dar esSalaam. The typical elements of and the differences between these districts clearly show that Dar es Salaam is a cosmopolitan city and a melting pot for a variety of cultures. The photos of each municipality express the city’s diversity through ethnic and religious backgrounds, through architecture and daily street activities. Anyone familiar with the city will recognize or remember something of the situations depicted. Anyone not yet familiar will be tempted to visit soon.

Wanafunzi 2778 hawakufanya mtihani wa darasa la saba mwaka huu kutokana na tatizo la utoro na mimba mkoani Mbeya!!

Mama Salma Kikwete.

Na Anna Nkinda - Maelezo, Mbeya
02/10/2009 Wanafunzi 2778 waliotarajiwa kufanya mtihani wa darasa la saba mwaka huu katika mkoa wa Mbeya hawakuweza kufanya mtihani huo kutokana na tatizo la utoro na mimba.
Hayo yamesemwa jana na Katibu Tawala wa mkoa huo Beatha Swai wakati akisoma taarifa ya Mkoa wa Mbeya kwa Mke wa Rais Mama Salma Kikwete ambaye pia ni Mwenyekiti wa Taasisi ya Wanawake na Maendeleo (WAMA) aliyeko ziara ya kikazi ya siku tatu mkoani humo.
Akitoa ufafanuzi wa idadi hiyo ya wanafunzi Swai alisema kuwa wanafunzi 78,429 walisajiliwa kufanya mtihani wa darasa la saba kwa mwaka huu lakini wanafunzi 2,778 ambo wavulana ni 1626 na wasichana 1152 hawakuweza kufanya mtihani huo.
Swali alisema, "Kati ya wanafunzi 2778 watoro ni 2626 ambao wavulana ni 1577 na wasichana ni 1049 na wanafunzi 39 walishindwa kufanya mtihani kwa ajili ya kupata ujauzito".
Taarifa hiyo pia inasema kuwa Mkoa wa Mbeya umepiga hatua katika upatikanaji wa maji safi na salama kwa wananchi wake kwani hadi kufikia Septemba 2009 kiwango cha upatikanaji wa maji vijijini ni asilimia 59.9 na kamati za maji 523 zimeimarishwa kwa mafunzo na mifuko 352 imeanzishwa ambapo shilingi milioni 242.9 zimekusanywa kupitia mifuko hiyo.
Kwa upande wa mjini hadi sasa upatikanaji wa maji ni asilimia 93 sawa na masaa 22:15 kwa siku baada ya kukamilika ukarabati na upanuzi wa miundombinu ya maji. Mkoa unazo Mamalaka Ndogo za Maji za makao makuu ya wilaya na miji midogo 10 zinazotoa huduma za maji.
Baada ya kupokea taarifa ya Mkoa Mama Kikwete aliongea na Wanawake wa Umoja wa Wanawake Tanzania (UWT) na kuwataka kupunguza mimba za utotoni pamoja na utoro kwa watoto wao kwani malezi ya watoto yako mikononi mwa wanawake, wanaume wanachofanya ni kuwasaidia tu.
Alisema kuwa idadi ya wanafunzi watoro pamoja na wanaopata ujauzito ni kubwa sana hivyo wao kama wazazi wanatakiwa kuongea na watoto wao ili wabadilike kitabia na kupunguza taizo hili au kama itawezekana kuliondoa kabisa.
"Inasikitisha sana kuona kuwa watoto wetu wanashindwa kumaliza shule kutokana na tatizo la utoro na mimba kwani kama wangweza kumaliza masomo yao wangepatikana wataalamu mbalimbali ambao wangeweza kuleta maendelea ya nchi yetu na hivyo kupunguza tatizo la wataalamu tulilokuwa nalo hapa nchini", alisema Mama Kikwete.
Mwenyekiti huyo wa Taasisi ya WAMA aliendelea kusema kuwa tatizo hili kama halitaweza kutatulia hali ya umaskini haitaweza kupungua katika jamii ya kitanzania kwani kutakuwa na maisha ya kutegemeana kwa kuwa watoto wengi hawatakuwa wamepata elimu ya kutosha ambayo itawasaidia kuinua kiwango chao cha maisha kwa kupata ajira Serikalini na katika Sektabinafsi.
Mama Kikwete aliwakabidhi kadi za uwanachama wa UWT wanachama wapya watano kwa niaba ya wenzao 150 ambao ni wanafunzi wa vyuo vikuu vishiriki vilivyopo katika mkoa huo.
Taasisi ya WAMA ilikichangia Chama cha Kuweka Akiba na Kukoba (SACCOS) cha Mbeya City Women Group ambayo inamilikiwa na UWT, Tshs.1,500,000/= fedha ambazo zitatumika kuinua mtaji wa chama hicho.

Maradona recalls Cambiasso!!

Argentina coach Diego Maradona.

Argentina coach Diego Maradona has called-up midfielder Esteban Cambiasso for the first time ahead of next month's international friendly against Spain in Madrid. Cambiasso, 29, had been a regular for Argentina, winning 45 caps for his country before Maradona took charge of the national team last November.
The Inter Milan midfielder was overlooked for the final eight games of a stuttering 2010 FIFA World Cup South Africa™ qualifying campaign, during which Maradona came under increasing pressure for his high rotation of players. Argentina only secured their place at next summer's finals with a 1-0 win over Uruguay in their final game.
Cambiasso is joined in being recalled to the national team by Real Madrid's Fernando Gago and Atletico Madrid's Maxi Rodriguez, both of whom missed the crucial match in Montevideo. Maradona, who turned 49 on Friday, also sprung a surprise by including uncapped left-back Cristian Ansaldi, who plays for Russian champions Rubin Kazan.
Argentina meet Spain in their friendly at the Vicente Calderon in Madrid on 14 November.

Wanafunzi 592 wameacha shule wilayani Nkasi kwa kipindi cha miaka miwili!!

Mke wa Rais Mama Salma Kikwete akisalimiana na wanafunzi katika moja ya shule alizowahi kuziutembelea.
Na Anna Nkinda - Maelezo, Nkasi
31/10/2009 Wanafunzi 592 wameacha shule wilayani Nkasi kutokana na tatizo la utoro, mimba, kukosa mahitaji na kuugua kwa kipidi cha miaka miwili na hivyo kusababisha kupungua kwa idadi ya wanafunzi wanaomaliza elimu ya shule ya msingi na sekondari wilayani humo.
Hayo yamesemwa jana na Mkuu wa wilaya hiyo Joyce Mgana wakati akisoma taarifa ya utekelezaji wa shughuli za maendeleoa ya wilaya kwa Mke wa Rais Mama Salma Kikwete aliyepo ziara ya kikazi ya siku tatu wilayani humo.
Mgana alisema kuwa tangu mwaka 2008 hadi sasa wanafunzi wa shule ya msingi alioacha masomo ni 226 kati ya hao wasichana ni 102 na wavulana 124 na katika shule za sekondari wanafunzi 366 waliacha masomo wakiwemo wasichana 195 na wavulana 171.
"Kuanzia mwaka 2008 hadi sasa wanafunzi 17 wa shule za msingi na wanafunzi 69 kwa upande wa sekondari walipata ujauzito na kesi zao zinaendelea mahakamani, kitendo hiki kinasababisha kwa kiasi kikubwa kushusha maendeleo ya mtoto wa kike", Mgana alisema.
Ili kukabiliana na tatizo la wanafunzi wa kike kupata ujauzito wilaya hiyo iko katika mkakati wa kujenga Hosteli mpya za wasichana zisizopungua tano kwa kila mwaka hadi sasa jumla ya Hosteli saba zinatarajiwa kukamilika kujengwa katika mwaka 2009/ 10.
Mkuu wa wilaya hiyo alisema kuwa, "Kuhusiana na tatizo la utoro mashuleni wanafunzi katika wilaya hii wanakula chakula cha mchana shuleni jambo ambalo limesaidia kwa kiasi kikubwa kupunguza tatizo hili".
Wilaya hiyo inakabiliwa na changamoto mbalimbali katika sekta ya elimu ikiwa ni pamoja na ongezeko la watoto yatima na wanaoishi katika mazingira magumu kwani hadi sasa katika shule za msingi kuna watoto yatima 4766 kati yao wasichana ni 2362 na wavulana 2404
Kwa upande wake Mama Kikwete ambaye pia ni Mwenyekiti wa Taasisi ya Wanawake na Maendeleo (WAMA) aliwataka wakazi wa wilaya hiyo kuhakikisha kuwa watoto wao wanasoma na kufuatilia maendeleo yao mashuleni.
"Ninawasihi kina baba na kina mama msipokee mahari ya watoto wenu msubiri hadi matokeo ya mtihani yametoka kama mtoto amefeli na mzazi anao uwezo wa kumsomesha katika shule ya kulipia ni bora ukampeleka mwanao shuleni kuliko kumuoza jambo ambalo litarudisha nyuma maendeleo yake ", alisema Mama Kikwete.
Aliendelea kusema kuwa Serikali ina makusudi ya kuanzisha shule za Sekondari za kata na kuongeza idadi ya shule za Msingi ili watoto wetu wasome na kupata wataalamu wengi ambao watasaidia kupunguza tatizo la wataalamu tulilonalo hivi sasa.
Wilaya hiyo ina shule za msingi 97 na shule za sekondari za Serikali 18 zilizojengwa kwa kushirikiana na wananchi, jumla ya wanafunzi katika shule za sekondari ni 6066 wasichana 2053 na wavulana 4013 na katika shule za msingi ni 49,428 kati ya hao wavulana ni 24,682 na wasichana ni 24,746.
Taasisi ya WAMA ilivichangia vikundi vya wanawake wajasiriamali vilivyopo wilayani humo Tshs. 1,500,000/= na Umoja wa Wanawake (UWT) Tshs. 500,000 fedha ambazo zitatumika kuinua mitaji ya vikundi hivyo.

MAJENGO YAJENGWA SHULE YA SEKONDARI MPANDA!!

Na Nkinda - Maelezo, Mpanda
30/10/2009 Serikali imetoa jumla ya Tshs. 52,000,000/= kwa ajili ya ujenzi wa madarasa manne, choo matundu sita na nyumba moja ya mwalimu katika shule ya Sekondari ya wasichana ya Mpanda.
Hayo yamesemwa jana na Mkuu wa shule hiyo Mwalimu Nyabise Sabasi wakati akitoa taarifa ya shule hiyo kwa Mke wa Rais Mama Salma Kikwete aliyetembelea shuleni hapo kwa ajili ya kuongea na wanafunzi wa kike wa wilaya ya Mpanda katika mkoa wa Rukwa.
Mwalimu Sabasi alisema kuwa katika utekelezaji wa ujenzi wa miradi hiyo shule imetoa mchango wake kwa kufyatua matofali laki moja na thelathini elfu. Pia shule iliandaa harambee kwa kushirikiana na wadau mbalimbali wa elimu ambapo zilipatikana Tshs.4,549,000/= ila bado kuna upungufu wa Tshs. 25, 595,145/= ili ujenzi wa miradi hiyo uweze kukamilika.
Shule hiyo inakabiliwa na changamoto mbalimbali ikiwa ni pamoja na upungufu wa mabweni manne kwani shule hiyo ilijengwa kwa ajili ya kulala wanafunzi 320 lakini hivi sasa kuna wanafunzi 640 kutokana na tatizo hilo shule inatumia baadhi ya vyumba vya madarasa kuwa mabweni.
Aliendelea kuzitaja changamoto zingine kuwa ni ongezeko la wanafunzi yatima na wanaotoka katika mazingira magumu kwani hivi sasa shule hiyo ina wanafunzi 33 ambao hupata shida mbalimbali na kukosa mahitaji muhimu, baadhi yao hulazimika kubaki shuleni kwa vipindi vyote vya likizo lakini kuna wengine wanaacha shule kwa sababu ya maisha duni na wengine hulazimika kuingia kwenye vitendo viovu wakidhani kuwa watapata mahitaji muhimu kwa maisha.
"Tunakabiliwa na upungufu wa madarasa matatu,, upungufu wa nyumba za wafanyakazi, upungufu wa vitendea kazi vinavyoendana na karne ya sayansi na keknolojia, upungufu wa vitabu vya kidato cha tano na sita, ukosefu wa uzio, upungufu wa wafanyakazi na hatuna gari dogo ambalo litatumika wakati wa dharula", alisema.
Akiongea na wanafunzi wa kike 1500 kutoka shule za sekondari 15 Mama Kikwete ambaye pia ni Mwenyekiti wa Taasisi ya Wanawake na Maendeleo (WAMA) alisema kuwa sababu za kihistoria zilikuwa zikiwanyima watoto wa kike fursa ya kupata elimu ikilinganishwa na watoto wa kiume.

Wanafunzi 220 wapata mimba kwa muda wa miezi kumi mkoani Kigoma!!

Na Anna Nkinda - Maelezzo, Kigoma
29/10/2009 Jumla ya wanafunzi 220 wa shule za Msingi na Sekondari Mkoani Kigoma wamepata ujauzito kuanzia mwezi wa kwanza hadi wa kumi mwaka huu na hivyo kushindwa kuendelea na masomo yao.
Hayo yamesemwa jana na Mkuu wa Mkoa wa Kigoma Kanali Mstaafu Joseph Simbakalia wakati akisoma taarifa ya maendeleo ya mkoa huo kwa Mke wa Rais Mama Salma Kikwete aliyepo mkoani humo kwa ziara ya kikazi ya siku mbili.
Taarifa ya Mkuu wa Mkoa huyo ilifafanua kuwa wanafunzi wa shule za Sekondari waliopata ujauzito ni 163 na wa shule za msingi ni 57.
Kwa upande wa mwaka jana wanafunzi waliopata ujauzito ni 167 ambapo wanafunzi wa shule za sekondari ni 85 na shule za Msingi ni 82.
Ili kukabiliana na tatizo hilo mkoa huo unajenga hosteli ambazo zitawasaidia wanafunzi wa kike kukaa shuleni wakati wote wa masomo na hivyo kuepukana na mazingira ambayo yatawafanya wapate mimba kirahisi.
Kwa upande wake Mama Kikwete ambaye pia ni Mwenyekiti wa Taasisi ya Wanawake na Maendeleo (WAMA) alipata muda wa kuongea na wazazi pamoja na wanafunzi wa kike wa mkoa huo na kuwataka kutojiingiza katika mapenzi kabla ya wakati bali wasubiri hadi pale watakapomaliza masomo yao.
"Hao wanaume wanawadanganya tu, wanawachezea miili yenu na hawawapi kitu chochote zaidi ya ujauzito na ugonjwa wa UKIMWI. Elimu ni mkombozi wa maisha yenu hivyo basi shirikianeni katika masomo ili muweze kufaulu vizuri na kujiunga na vyuo vikuu", alisema Mama Kikwete.
Alisema, "Mkumbuke kuwa jukumu la ulezi wa mtoto ni la jamii nzima si la mzazi peke yake kwani kuharibika kwa mtoto wako ni kuharibika kwa taifa zima hivyo basi sote kama wazazi tunajukumu la kupunguza kasi ya upatikanaji wa mimba za utotoni kwa watoto wetu na kuhakikisha kuwa watoto wanakuwa katika maadili mema ya kitanzania".
Mkoa huo unajumla ya shule za msingi 621 kati ya mahitaji 668 hivyo kuna upungufu wa shule 46 na shule za sekondari 130.

WHO WILL BE THE ONE AND ONLY M-NET FACE OF AFRICA 2009…

It’s more than a name, more than a moment.

In Africa, for a decade, one search has led the way to find iconic, unforgettable African style.

That search is M-Net’s powerful Face of Africa and this month, the legendary competition returns to television screens once more to tell a story of hope and opportunity, as the journey from Africa’s busy streets to Africa’s glamourous catwalks continues.

From Saturday October 31 at 19.00 CAT (M-Net East), and running 17 weeks, Face of Africa will cross countries, uncover fresh new faces, and chart their rise to the top, from discovery to success, from potential to fame, from possibility to reality. Along the way, audiences will discover how Tanzania’s gorgeous Lillian Alphonce Mduda was discovered at this year’s audition in Dar es Salaam and how far she’s progressed in the competition.

Speaking as M-Net readies itself to screen a new expanded series, Africa Director Biola Alabi was clear on the project’s legacy, its aims and its outcomes.

“Over time, this initiative has shown that it is about so much more than just fashion and beauty. There is a bigger picture there to see, something more than shoes, and cameras and clothing. It’s about young women with so much courage that they will leave their homes to find new experiences, so much determination that they will venture into the unknown to discover themselves, so much passion that they will chase their dreams.”

She goes on to say, “There’s something so magical about this, so special to see, that M-Net wants to share it with audiences across Africa. Because these are Africa’s own and they are taking their chance to shine. We want to laugh with them, cry with them, celebrate with them and now our audiences can do this, every step of the way.”

With a winner prize of USD 50 000 plus a modeling contract with O Model Africa, the new season of Face of Africa began earlier this year with auditions in 14 countries - Angola, Botswana, Ethiopia, Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe. Further entry was open online to entrants from across sub-Saharan Africa who wished to participate gaining entries from as far afield as Sudan and Cameroon. The next step was the casting sessions where a special team of model scouts evaluated entries and selected contestants to continue in the series.

Emotional, dramatic and entertaining, these castings were filmed and audiences will now be able to see behind-the-scenes of the search and live the experience.

At the end of the audition phase, 24 models from16 countries were selected to participate in Model BootCamp, in Mombasa in Kenya. This idyllic tropical paradise with its breathtaking shoreline served as backdrop for another selection round amidst modeling workshops, fashion photo-shoots and television filming.

With some of the selected contestants exiting the competition at this point, the Mombasa BootCamp was action-packed, exciting and a little tense, as contestants learnt, honed their skills and competed to remain in the competition under the watchful eye of BootCamp presenter and former Face of Africa 2005 Kaone Kario.

With stops scheduled in Johannesburg as well as a second Model BootCamp in Dar es Salaam at Swahili Fashion Week, plus the shooting of a music video with Nigerian superstar D’Banj, the Face of Africa adventure will be told every Saturday evening on M-Net East, in the lead-up to the Face of Africa 2009 Finale, to be held in Lagos on Saturday February 6, 2010.

For fans of the series, remember you can also log on to www.mnetafrica.com to watch exclusive footage, find out more about the contestants, access photographs and chat to other fans about this year’s search.

Meanwhile as the search for a new Face of Africa gets underway, last year’s winner Kate Menson is living her dream job. The 24-year-old has been starring in M-Net’s advertising campaign for the new season of Face of Africa and in addition, she recently completed a stay at the Big Brother house. Other credits include appearances at Mozambique Fashion Week, New Delhi Fashion Week, Cape Town Fashion Week and New York Fashion Week, plus she’s appeared on the pages of Elle, Glamour and Cosmopolitan.Now, as Kate continues her rise to the top of the fashion world, a new face is about to be transformed from aspiring model to fully fledged modeling sensation…to find out who, simply follow the search on M-Net.

Milan certain of Beckham deal!!

David Bekham.

AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani is "100% certain" David Beckham will return to the San Siro outfit in the winter transfer market.

The England midfielder has been strongly linked with a second loan spell at the Rossoneri to improve his chances of making Fabio Capello's FIFA World Cup™ squad.

Galliani told the Italian media: "Beckham's arrival is certain to happen, 100%. The agreement is done and all that is missing are the signatures."

Xavi glad to silence critics

Barcelona midfielder Xavi.

Barcelona midfielder Xavi hopes his side's 6-1 demolition of Real Zaragoza is more than enough proof that all is well at the European champions.
Barça found themselves in the spotlight heading into their home clash with Zaragoza following a disappointing couple of results in the last week. They lost their 100 per cent start to the La Liga season and a chance to break a club record when they were held goalless by Valencia last weekend, and then in midweek they crashed to a shock 2-1 home defeat to Rubin Kazan in the UEFA Champions League.
That was Barça's first defeat in Europe since last December and first loss in any competitive match since May, and led to Pep Guardiola's side coming under fire in the Spanish media. However, the Barça players last week dismissed suggestions of a possible crisis and let their football do the talking last night by thrashing Zaragoza to go three points clear at the top of La Liga.

The victory helped show that we are doing things well, has helped build confidence, and has made us league leaders.
Barcelona midfielder Xavi
"We've shown that we are fine physically and that we aren't lacking goals," said Xavi following the victory. "I already said that the game the other day (against Rubin) was just one of those things. People tend to be guided by results, but we know that if we continue playing like that then we will almost always win.
"We weren't very good against Valencia, but we were fine against Rubin apart from in front of goal. We've been good here (against Zaragoza), we've had chances and we were winning 2-0 very quickly. The victory helped show that we are doing things well, has helped build confidence, and has made us league leaders."
Midfielder Seydou Keita led Barca's goal blitz with a hat-trick, while big-money summer signing Zlatan Ibrahimovic continued his good start to life at Barcelona with a brace, and Lionel Messi added the other. Ibrahimovic has now struck seven times in La Liga, leaving him level with Valencia's David Villa at the top of the Primera Division scoring charts and one above team-mate Messi.
"I'm very happy, because I started the season a little flat, but every day I'm getting better. However, without my team-mates I wouldn't be able to play like that," Ibrahimovic said. story by www.fifa.com

X Plastaz represent Africa at BET Hip Hop Awards 2009

America's annual 'gathering of giants' pays tribute to Tanzanian hip hop

Rapper Gsan of the group X Plastaz from Arusha, Tanzania, is representing Africa in this year's edition of the BET Hip Hop Awards, broadcast on October 27 on BET (Black Entertainment Television) in the USA. Meanwhile, X Plastaz' dj/producer Threesixty is heard all around the world through his production for major hip hop artist Redman (Def Jam).

The annual BET Hip Hop Awards are watched by millions of hip hop fans across the United States. Especially the part of the show in which Gsan participates, titled the BET Hip Hop Awards cypher, is highly anticipated as it's a true gathering of giants in rap music. The cypher, in which the artists go back to the raw essence of hip hop, sees legendary dj/producer Premier team up with emcees such as Mos Def, Black Thought, Eminem and Joe Budden. The section in which BET pays tribute to the growing popularity of hip hop from East Africa by including Gsan has the Arusha-born rapper performing alongside veteran rapper KRS One along with newcomers Wale and Nipsey Hussle.

The inclusion of X Plastaz in this year's BET Hip Hop Awards came about when BET contacted X Plastaz, after seeing their music video 'Nini dhambi kwa mwenye dhiki' on the Youtube website. 'Nini dhambi' which has drawn over 400.000 views is one of the most popular East African music videos on the web. Gsan flew out to Brooklyn, New York where the cypher was pre-recorded in an empty factory building. His contribution was a rap in Swahili over an old school loop, cut up by dj Premier. While Swahili language hip hop was something new for the other artists, KRS One and Premier were full of love for the African input into this year's cypher.

After recording the cypher, Gsan attended the Awards ceremony which took place in Atlanta on October 10, and which will finally be broadcast next tuesday, October 27.

Says Gsan in an interview with Emcee Africa presenter Lee Kasumba: "Well, the Cypher segment was recorded in New York before the actual award ceremony. For me, it was just amazing to be there with people like Eminem, KRS One, DJ Premier playing the beats, and being able to showcase what I had. Many people were blown away with what I did and asked me why I rhymed in Swahili ‘cause they wanted to understand. I was just like ‘English is not my first language, I speak it, I love it but you will be able to mess me up if I rhyme in English’. There were emcees from all over the world in one setting, and I was happy to represent for Africa. I wasn’t starstruck, just glad to showcase what I did and could do with my American counterparts. I mean, think of it, we really have the same names, just one word changes, African American and African, do you understand what that means?"

Also this week, X Plastaz dj Threesixty (real name: Bamba Nazar) is being hailed as a breath of fresh air in hip hop as his production for Def Jam-artist Redman was distributed across the internet. The beat reminds of the energetic old school sound of the late 1970's and is a sureshot dancefloor filler. The song, titled 'Coc Back', is the first single off Redman's long awaited new album titled 'Reggie Noble 9.5' which will be released in December. The video for 'Coc Back' will be out this week.

Watch Gsan from X Plastaz in the BET Hip Hop Awards cypher on tuesday, October 27 at 8 pm (EDT) on BET. Outside of USA the cypher can be watched on Youtube from the day after the Awards show.
