Unique Letter to President Kikwete

This letter was circulates in one of Tanzania's social media network, wanabidii: It is addressed to President Jakaya Kikwete (pictured) in a unique tone, and with a message that makes it eccentric. Read on:

Dear Jakaya,
Your not-so-Excellency President Kikwete,
It is my obligation to inform you, as a loyal citizen of The United Republic of Tanzania, that you are an awful president. As much as I'd love to praise your abilities to keep Tanzania in good light to most of the world, I cannot; as your cons outweigh your pros. As much as I'd praise you because you are the reason my father has the job he does at this present moment, I cannot; as you still do not fit the requirements required to be President of Tanzania. My reasons can be expressed as follows:
To start with, you do not know how to run the economy of this country. Tanzania is one of the richest countries in Africa in terms of natural resources, however, it seems that your degree in Economics did not teach you much, considering that you are unable to apply these resources to use to raise the economy of this nation. However, what you have been doing so far is giving the resources to 'investors' to raise the money for you, not realizing that these investors are not here to develop Tanzania, they are here to develop themselves! It is your job to create employment, investment opportunities and more capital for the Tanzanians themselves and I must say your failure at doing so is immense.
Even as an 18 year old, studying average high school economics, I can think of way more solutions to our economic problems compared to the ones that you are providing, which so far, are actually not even present, as you are not providing solutions to our problems. I must not get into stereotypes, lest I judge you by your background, however I must ask, who in the world informed you that the only way out of our problems is through foreign aid? Actually, I must also question who you put on your economic affairs advice team, as they are obviously not doing anything but smiling at your face and nodding to whatever you think is right for this economy.
Foreign aid is not helping Tanzania create jobs and social services because in case you have not noticed, the people do not have any incentive to push them to work for themselves, because obviously, our dear president will bring more foreigners to do it for us instead, and lend us some money so we can eat for the rest of the tax year. Mr. President, I do not know of your personal views of this country, but have you no self respect? Tanzania is now the third most aided country in the world, despite our resources. Have you no shame to beg from the Western world every other month, instead of working to run away from the exploitation of our past?
You are running straight back to what we ran away from 50 years ago under the reign of our dear Mwalimu. How do you feel once Rwanda and Kenya boast about having no budget deficit and no financial aiding from foreigners in their next parliamentary budgets, while you will smile and say Denmark is giving you an extra 10 million euros to finish up your budget? Do you seek pride in being the little beggar child that all of the rich people lend money to every now and then because they have been a 'good child' and listen to everything the rich people demand?
You are a prime example of the able bodied man on the street, begging from car to car, not knowing that he has strong limbs to work for himself! I am tired of the days where we run to the West to help us. Why? Because they exploited us, and as wealthy nations it is their obligation to help us out? No. That's how life is. One has to fend for their lives, and we are the ones who need to fend for the life of this country, with you in the lead. However, you are not in the lead at all, and I pity your lack of abilities. As an 18 year old girl, I feel like even I, and many others like me out there can run this country better than you do. And I do not criticize with no willingness to act, trust me, given the opportunity, I would run this country today. As we search for chances to serve our country today, you need to do the same. Do you serve this country, or is this country supposed to serve you?
I must say, you will never be known as the man who changed Tanzania. You will be known as the man who was too much of a coward to face the liars, the corrupt and the exploiters who ruin this country. No one will remember you when you are gone. No one will say, "What if Kikwete was here?" or "I miss the days when Kikwete was president." As you lie in your mansion somewhere in the nation, people will probably be glad you even left. Hope you're happy.
Sincerely,

Inviolata Sia Chami

Obama azungumzia kifo cha Osama

Nukuu ya leo kutoka kwa Rais Barack Obama wa Marekani: "Hatupigani vita dhidi ya Uislamu kwa sababu Bin Laden si kiongozi wa Uislamu... na ameua maelfu ya Waislamu." Sikiliza hotuba ya Rais Obama, akitangaza kifo cha Osama Bin Laden..

Na licha ya makundi ya watu kudai kwamba Marekani inasema uwongo, haijamuua Osama, mtandao wake wenyewe, Al-qaeda, umekiri kwamba bosi wao kafa.

Ni kweli! Tatizo si Dowans, ni serikali

Kwa wanaofuatilia mjadala kuhusu Dowans wiki hii, ndugu yangu Absalom Kibanda ameandika kwenye bidii baada ya kusoma maoni yangu na ya Kitila Mkumbo. Sisi tumesema mwenye tatizo si Dowans bali watawala wetu na washauri wao; maana tunaweza kujikuta tunaacha kupamabana na waliotusababishia matatizo, tunabaki kukabana koo na wawekezaji ambao wameletwa tu - na wao wanatafuta kila upenyo wa kibiashara. Kibanda amefafanua vizuri zaidi hoja hii, nami nikaona niwawekee wasomaji wa blogu hii. Ameandika hivi:

"Kitila/Ansbert

Nimewaelewa, mmetufikirisha. Tunamuacha adui na kumshambulia mhanga. Hiyo ndiyo siri ambayo Kikwete na serikali yake wanaificha. Wanatambua kwamba wao ndiyo wenye makosa, wanatambua kwamba makosa waliyofanya katika mkataba wa Richmond ndiyo yaliyotufikisha hapa tulipo leo. Leo hii wanashangilia chini chini na waziwazi wanapoona waandishi wa habari, wanazuoni na wachambuzi wa mambo wakielekeza mashambulizi yao kwa Dowans wakati ukweli ukiwa bayana kwamba tunaopaswa kuwawajibisha ni viongozi wetu serikalini ambao wameitumia sekta ya nishati na madini kama mtaji wa mapato yao haramu.

Hivi nani hajui kuwa ufisadi kupitia mikataba ya IPTL na Songas ni wa kutisha kuliko ilivyo kwa Dowans. Hivi Watanzania wangapi wanajua kwamba fedha ambazo Taifa hili lilikopwa na Benki ya Dunia tena kwa riba ndizo tuliipa kampuni iliyoanza uwekezaji wa Songas kuwekeza kama mtaji wake wa asilimia 100 halafu baada ya sisi kuwapa mtaji huo kampuni hiyo ikafanikisha uwekezaji huo haramu na leo wanatuuzia umeme na deni la WB tunalipa.

Nani amesahau uharamia wa IPTL ambao ulikaribia kumpokonya maisha (Patrick) Rutabanzibwa aliyejaribu kupinga uwekezaji wake? Nani anaikumbuka ile story ya The Ugly Malaysians iliyoandikwa kueleza siri ya ufisadi wa kutisha ndani ya IPTL. Nani hajui kwamba gharama ambazo serikali inatumia kuigharamia IPTL kwa mwezi mmoja zinaendesha mitambo ya Dowans kwa miezi minne?

Hivi kama tungekuwa tumewekeza katika sekta ya nishati ipasavyo tulikuwa na sababu ya kuwaita wawekezaji wa msimu wa aina ya Dowans, IPTL na Songas? Ni serikali gani kama si hizi za CCM ambazo ndizo zimetufikisha hapa?

Hivi Kikwete ambaye alikaa katika Wizara ya Nishati na Madini kwa miaka mingi akiwa Naibu Waziri na Waziri kamili alifanya nini cha maana kulinusuru taifa na matatizo ya leo? Kama alishindwa akiwa katika wizara mama ataweza akiwa rais? Kwa nini hatulishangai hilo?

Kwa nini hatujiulizi? Iweje akiwa Ikulu ameshindwa kubaini mianya ya ufisadi katika umeme wa dharura wakati yeye mwenyewe akiwa ndiye aliye na siri nzito kuhusu kuwapo kwa IPTL hapa nchini? Mbona viongozi wetu wanatumia wepesi wa Watanzania kusahau kwa manufaa yao?

Ni kwa sababu ya jeuri hiyo ndiyo maana leo anadiriki kusema hawafahamu wamiliki wa Dowans. Ni kwa sababu hiyo ndiyo maana ni yeye aliyewapa baraka AG (Frederick) Werema na (Waziri wa Nishati na Madini) William Ngeleja kutamka kwamba tutawalipa Dowans na baada ya akina Sitta, Mwakyembe na wanaharakati wengine kuibuka na kumtisha akageuka na kusema eti naye ni mmoja wa watu ambao hawapendi Dowans walipwe.

Ni yeye aliwapa baraka awali akina Dk. Idris Rashid na Ngeleja za kutaka serikali inunue mitambo hiyo ya Dowans na halafu joto lilipozidi kupinga msimamo huo akageuka na kusema eti uamuzi wao wa kuachana na nia yao ya kuinunua ilikuwa ni wa kusoma alama za nyakati. Je ni haki kumuacha huyu na serikali yake salama na kumshambulia Adawi na Dowans yake? Tunapaswa kufikiri upya.

Ndiyo maana baadhi yetu tunachelea kuiunga mkono CCM na serikali yake. ndiyo maana huwa nawashangaa baadhi ya viongozi wa upinzani wanapohadaika na kuwaunga mkono wahuni kadhaa wa ndani ya CCM wanaojifanya wazalendo wakati rekodi zilizo wazo zikithibitisha pasipo shaka kwamba hao ni maruhani wanaoifanyia kazi CCM kwa staili ya kuuhadaa umma."

Adawi apigwa picha

BAADA ya sokomoko la juzi la Brig. Jenerali Sulaiman Mohammed Yahya Al-Adawi kukataa kupigwa picha, leo "zimefanyika njama kinamna" dhidi yake, akapigwa picha bila kujua alipokuwa anatembelea mitambo yake ya Dowans Ubungo, Dar es Salaam. Ndiye huyu hapa! Na baada tu ya ziara yake hiyo, akaelekea uwanja wa ndege kupanda pipa kurudi makwao Oman. Hata hivyo, kabla ya tukio hilo la Ubungo, Adawi alimtembelea Makamu wa Rais Dk. Gharib Bilal, Ikulu, na akiwa ofisini kwa makamu wa rais, alikataa katakata kupigwa picha yoyote kama alivyowagomea waandishi juzi.

Mmiliki wa Dowans yuko Bongo

Mmiliki wa Dowans, Brigedia Jenerali (Mstaafu) Sulaiman Mohammed Yahya Al Adawi, anayeishi Oman, ametua nchini na kuzungumza na vyombo vya habari katika hoteli ya Kilimanjaro Kempinski, Dar es Salaam. Akiwa na wakurugenzi wawili Stanley Munai na John Miles, alisema amelazimika kuja kwa sababu amesikia watu wanadai hawamjui mmiliki wa Dowans, na kwamba wanawadhania baadhi ya Watanzania kuwa ndio wamiliki wa Dowans. Akasema: "Mimi ndiye mmiliki wa Dowans."

Akasema si kawaida yake kuzungumza na vyombo vya habari, na kwamba hataki kupigwa picha yoyote, kwa sababu yeye ni mfanyabiashara asiyependa makuu na asiye na makeke. Akasema amewekeza katika nchi 12 duniani, na kwamba katika zote hizo anawakilishwa na rafiki zake; na kwamba hapa nchini aliletwa na Rostam Aziz mwaka 2005 kwa ajili ya mradi wa Fibre Optic.

Katika hili la sasa, alisema amekuja kujadiliana na Tanesco juu ya hatima bora ya kibiashara kwake na fursa ya umeme kwa Watanzania, katika mazingira ya sasa ya mkataba unaodaiwa kuwa na utata, na deni la bilioni 94 analoidai Tanesco baada ya Dowans kuwashinda Tanesco mahakamani. Alizungumza kwa Kiingereza, na nimeweza kunukuu baadhi ya kauli zake moja kwa moja alipokuwa akijibu baadhi ya maswali na hoja za waandishi. Hizi hapa:

1. “I am here to find a happy resolution, a business decision. I am ready to offer something nice to Tanesco if it works out.”

2. “I don’t want to be known. I am a low-profile businessman. I walk free here in Dar es Salaam, and no one knows I own Dowans.”

3. “Rostam Azizi is a friend of mine. He invited me to come and invest here, but he didn’t put in any cent in the project.”

4. “I have businesses in 12 countries allover the world. I can’t go and represent myself in every country. That’s why I gave Rostam power of attorney.”

5. “We have not been tarnished, but we have been mixed up with something else (Richmond)”

6. “I do not need to be cleared by anyone; my electricity here will clear me.”

Kikwete anawajua Dowans

HOJA yangu ni kwamba Rais Jakaya Kikwete na serikali yake wanawajua Dowans kabla hata hawajarithi mkataba wa Richmond. Wanajua kuwa wanasheria wetu ndio walioandika mkataba huo; ndio waliotushauri kuuvunja; na ndio waliotutetea tukashindwa. Kauli ya sasa ya Rais Kikwete kwamba hawajui Dowans ni ya kujikosha, na ya kisaliti kama ya Mtume Petro, mbele ya kijakazi, dhidi ya Yesu. Blogu hii inajua kuwa Rais Kikwete alishiriki kuwabeba wawekezaji hao, hasa baada ya matatizo yaliyosababishwa na Richmond. Na blogu hii inajua kuwa Rais Kikwete anataka Dowans walipwe pesa zao, lakini anakosa ujasiri kwa sababu za kisiasa. SOMA Maswali Magumu hapa.

Mkanganyiko wa risasi za moto dhidi ya raia Arusha

KATIKA taarifa ya jana, Polisi Mkoani Arusha walisema wameua watu wawili tu; baadhi ya vyombo vya habari, kikiwamo BBC, vikadai wamekufa watu wapatao 10. Polisi wakadai walipiga risasi watu sita (6) tu, lakini viongozi wa Chadema walipoachiwa na mahakama wakaenda kutembelea majeruhi hospitalini, walikuta wananchi wapatao 38 wote wana majeraha ya risasi. Chadema wakaunda kamati ya kuwahudumia majeruhi hao. Sasa inadaiwa polisi wamekula njama na uongozi wa hospitali hiyo ya Mount Meru, wamewatorosha majeruhi hao, hawajulikani walikopelekwa, ili kuficha ukweli kuhusu idadi ya waliojeruhiwa kwa risasa. Viongozi wa Chadema wanaendelea kufuatilia. Tusipochunga, taratibu, Tanzania itageuka Police State!

Ajabu ni kwamba Polisi hawajawakamata polisi hao walioua raia; badala yake wanawakamata raia waliokuwa wanatembea kwa miguu (wanaandamana sio?) kuelekea mkutanoni.
