BAJETI 2016/17 ISISAHAU WALEMAVU

 Wito huo umetolewa leo na Josephine Bakhita, Ofisa Ustawi wa Taasisi ya Kumbukumbu ya Erick inayojihusisha na watu wenye ulemavu wa akili (EMFRED) wakati akizungumza na waandishi wa habari.

Bakhita ambaye pia alikuwa na mtoto mwenye ulemavu huo Erick Bakhita na kufariki dunia, ameeleza kuguswa na kuamua kufungua kituo hicho ili kusaidia jamii ya walemavu hao.
Bakhita amesema kuwa, jamii hiyo imekuwa haifikiwi kwa haraka na kwamba, hata watunga sera bado hawajaanza kuangalia mbinu za kuwaibua na kuweka utetezi juu yao ili waweze kupata haki zao za msingi kama wanadamu wengine wanavyopata.

Amesema kuwa, tangu taasisi hiyo ianzisha Mei 2011 hadi Desemba 2015 tayari imeweza kusajili familia 637 zenye jamii ya walemavu katika vijiji mbalimbali vya Wilaya ya Gairo na Mvomero.
“Kilio changu kikubwa ni kwa walemavu hasa wa akili, ni kundi kubwa linalotengwa na kuminywa kwenye jamii kutokana na wazazi husika kutokuwa na elimu na serikali kutolivalia njuga suala hilo,” Amesema.

Esther Andrew (40), Mkazi wa Malolo, Kilosa ambaye ni mama wa mtoto Grace Emmanuel (15) mwenye ulemavu wa akili kituoni hapo ameiomba serikali kusaidia kituo hicho.

UNACHOTAKIWA KUFANYA PALE UNAPOANZISHA BIASHARA

Najua nazungumza na mabilionea wakubwa, kama si mabilionea wa sasa, basi ni mabilionea wa baadaye. Wewe ni bilionea, nakutamkia hili na unatakiwa kuamini pasipo kujali kwamba kwenye akaunti una shilingi elfu moja au chini ya hapo, unachotakiwa kuamini kwamba wewe ni bilionea.
Inawezekana umeanzisha biashara yako, kitu cha ajabu kabisa, fedha hazikai, kila ukipata leo, kesho hazipo, ili kuendesha biashara yako inakupasa kukopa sehemu, ni kweli ulipata faida, ila kwa nini ukope? Kopa wakati ukitafuta mtaji, ila kama umeshafanya biashara na faida ukapata, kwa nini ukope? Kwa nini usitumie faida uliyoipata kukuinua hapo ulipo?
Wengi wanakutana na hali hiyo, si wewe tu, hata mimi nilishawahi kukutana nayo, na si sisi tu, amini hata mabilionea wakubwa walishawahi kukutana na hali hiyo. Hivi unajua ni mabilionea wangapi waliwahi kufilisika? Unamjua Muitaliano Enzo Ferrari? Alipata fedha, akafilisika, akagundua alipofanya makosa, akatafuta tena, akazipata.
Wewe kama binadamu wengine, unaweza kupata fedha na kufilisika, hapa siwazungumzii wakina Bakhresa, Mengi na wengineo, nakuzungumzia wewe mwenye biashara ndogo, nataka biashara yako ikue, utoke hapo ulipo na usogee mbele zaidi, ufanikiwe na siku moja uitwe bilionea Omari, Selemani, John, Hamisi, Sara, Anna, Peter au jina lolote ulilokuwa nalo.
Hizi ni baadhi ya njia ambazo zinaweza kukusaidia kufikia ubilionea japokuwa una biashara ndogo au kipato kidogo.

1. WEKA MALENGO
Kitu cha kwanza unachotakiwa kufanya kama mfanyabiashara ni kuweka malengo. Hebu chukua karatasi, andika malengo yako na kuyafanyia kazi. Kumbuka wewe ni bilionea, usiweke malengo ambayo unadhani kwamba pia ua utayafikia, ukiyaandika hayo, jua hautotoa nguvu kubwa kupambana ili uyafikie malengo hayo. Kama una mtaji mdogo, weka malengo makubwa ya kufanikiwa, unapoweka malengo makubwa zaidi ya ulichonacho kitakufanya ujitoe zaidi, uongeze juhudi ili kufikia kile unachokiwazia.
Mfano wewe ni mfanyabiashara mdogo, ukaweka lengo kwamba mpaka mwaka kesho lazima uanzishe biashara ya kuuza mahindi mitaani. Sawa, si vibaya lakini ulitakiwa kuweka malengo ya biashara kubwa zaidi. Kwa fedha hizohizo ulizokuwa nazo, unaweza kuanzisha biashara ya mahindi, ukijiwekea hivyo, jua kwamba unayachelewesha mafanikio yako. Ninataka ujitume kwa nguvu zote, ukiweka yale malengo makubwa, utajiona huwezi kufika lakini ndiyo yatakayokufanya kupambana zaidi, hutolala, utapambana usiku na mchana ila ukiweka lengo dogo, utasema subiri upumzike kwani lengo hilo litakuja hata kama hutojitoa, hivyo ili ufanikiwe, jiwekee lengo kubwa na hakika utapiga hatua.
Mfano mzuri mimi. Sikuwa na fedha kipindi cha nyuma, ishu ya kuanzisha magazeti ilihitaji msingi mkubwa sana, ila sikutaka kukwepa lengo langu la kufanya hivyo. Ningeweza kusema niuze machungwa mitaani, kweli ningeuza, lakini kwa nini niweke lengo dogo? Je ningejitoa zaidi? Ili nijitoe, ili nifanye kazi usiku na mchana ilikuwa ni lazima niweke lengo kubwa, nikaweka, nikajitoa na kufanikiwa. Kama Shigongo, yule mtoto masikini ameweza, vipi kuhusu wewe?

2. USIOGOPE KUFELI
 Ndiyo! Kuna watu waoga sana, wanaogopa kufanya biashara fulani kubwa kwa kuwa wanaogopa kuanguka. Rafiki yangu, kuanguka ni sehemu moja ya maisha, ili usonge mbele ni lazima uanguke. Huwezi kujua kuendesha baiskeli kama hujaanguka, ni lazima uanguke ili ujue, iko hivyo.
Mtoto anapoanza kutembea, kuna kipindi anaanguka, mbona yeye hakati tamaa na kusema kwamba kuanzia leo hatembei tena kisa ameanguka? Akianguka, hunyanyuka na kutembea tena, akianguka anajaribu tena.
Wewe kama mfanyabiashara mdogo au mkubwa, jifanye mtoto, usiogope kufeli, ili usonge mbele, ni lazima ufeli, huwezi kuwa mshindi siku zote, kuna kipindi unashindwa, ukishindwa, unakaa chini na kuwaza umeshindwa wapi, unajipanga na kurudi tena kwenye gemu.
Kama ningekuwa naogopa kufeli, nakwambia ukweli kwamba nisingekuwa hapa, labda leo ningekuwa mtaani tu nafanya biashara ndogondogo, kuogopa kufeli kungenifanya niwe kulekule nilipokuwa nyuma. Ili ujifunze, ili upige hatua ni lazima ufeli, ukifeli, unajifunza na kusonga mbele.

3. WEKA UMAKINI NA FEDHA ZAKO
Siku zote nimekuwa nikiwaambia watu, si vizuri kutumia kiasi kikubwa cha fedha zaidi ya unachoingiza. Mwingine ana biashara inaingiza elfu ishirini kwa siku, ila anataka kufanya matumizi yasiyokuwa na faida kwa kutumia elfu thelathini. Ndugu yangu! Huwezi kuishi kwa maisha haya halafu ukaja kufanikiwa. Unatakiwa kuwa makini na fedha zako.
Mwingine anasema, nimepata faida nyingi, acha nikale bata! Ndugu zangu, bata haziishi, kila siku zinaongezeka, baa hazifungwi, umezikuta na utaziacha, kumbi za starehe kila siku zinafunguliwa mpya.
Ithamini pesa yako, hata kama ni shilingi hamsini, ithamini. Unapokuwa na elfu moja, inayokamilisha hela hiyo ni shilingi hamsini, kama ukiwa na 950, huwezi kupata 1000 kama huna hamsini, kwa hiyo kwenye maisha yako ya kibiashara, hata shilingi 50 ni muhimu mno kwako.
Usiipuuzie fedha yoyote ile, panga matumizi yako ya kawaida, si muhimu sana kunywa soda kama huna sababu ya kufanya hivyo! Hakuna umuhimu wa kula chipsi kuku kama hakuna umuhimu wa kufanya hivyo! Kwani usipokula chipsi kuku utakufa? Kama una kiasi kidogo cha fedha basi hata matumizi ya fedha yako hakikisha yanakuwa madogo na si makubwa zaidi ya kile ulichokipata.

4. JENGA URAFIKI NA WENYE FEDHA
Hapa simaanishi kwamba wasiokuwa na fedha inabidi watengwe, hapana! Ila unatakiwa kuwa makini, ni vizuri kutengeneza marafiki wapya lakini inabidi uwe makini. Kabla ya kuwa nilivyo niliwahi kuwasikia watu wakisema unapoanza kufanikiwa unabadilika, nilipinga lakini nikaja kuona inawezekana.
Unapokuwa umefika hatua fulani, automatic unaanza kutafuta watu ambao wanaweza kukuvusha kutoka hapo ulipo, watu wenye uwezo wa kukufanya kufanikiwa zaidi. Kumbuka shuleni kwenu, ni wanafunzi wangapi waliokuwa na akili walikuwa marafiki wao kwa wao? Kwani hawakuwa marafiki zako pia, walikuwa marafiki zako ila wenyewe wakawa beneti, ipo hivyo.
Unapopata fedha, unapofanikiwa, jaribu kutengeneza ukaribu na watu waliofanikiwa, usiwaache wale wengine, kuwa nao ila usiwe nao beneti kupindukia, kama unaona mtu haeleweki, hana hamasa ya kukufanya kufanikiwa, kwa nini uwe naye beneti? Muache awe rafiki wa kupiga naye stori dakika kumi na kuondoka.
Unapokuwa siriazi kutafuta fedha, huna budi kuwatafuta waliofanikiwa, wakufundishe kwa nini wapo hapo, walipitia nyanja zipi mpaka kufanikiwa hivyo? Ni lazima ujifunze kupitia wao na hakika utafanikiwa.

5. USICHANGANYE BIASHARA NA URAFIKI/NDUGU
 Ndiyo! Wengi tunafeli hapa. Tunapopata nafasi ya kufanya biashara, wengi tunakosa kufanikiwa kwa sababu tu tumechanganya urafiki katika biashara. Biashara ndogo lakini bado unataka kukopesha, tena kwa watu ambao huna uhakika kama watakulipa.
Unapoanzisha biashara, wengi watakuja kukopa na si kununua, hebu jiulize, wakati hujaanzisha hiyo biashara, mbona hawakuwa wakienda kukopa sehemu nyingine? Jua sisi binadamu tuna makusudi, tunapomuona mtu ameanzisha biashara, mara nyingi tunataka kumuangusha chini ili tumcheke, tumdhihaki kwamba kiko wapi sasa! Unatakiwa kuwa makini sana, huu si muda wa kupeleka urafiki na undugu katika biashara. Unapoanzisha biashara na ikatokea umemuajiri ndugu yako, mwambie wazi kwamba upo kama mfanyabiashara na si kama ndugu, anapofanya makosa, mchukulie hatua kama unavyomchukulia mtu baki, ukimuacha kwa kuogopa lawama, huyohuyo baadaye atakuja kukucheka.
Unapoona una hamu ya kula chipsi, na wewe unaifanya biashara hiyo ya chipsi, nunua chipsi zako, si kwamba ni zako basi na wewe ule bure. Najua ni ngumu kwa watu wengine lakini inabidi ufanye hivyo ili kuifanya biashara yako isimame.
Leo unapouza chipsi na kula bure, amini kwamba kesho utataka uongeze na chipsi yai, keshokutwa chipsi samaki, sasa ukifanya hivyo, hutofanikiwa kwa hiyo ni lazima hata wewe mwenyewe ujidai.
Sina mengi, ila tukutane muda mwingine kwa makala nyingine ya ujasiriamali. Kumbuka, wewe ni bilionea, fanya mambo kama bilionea.

Lowassa amtathimini Mh. Magufuli

EDWARD Lowassa, aliyekuwa Waziri Mkuu wa Tanzania amesema kuwa, staili ya utawala wa Rais John Magufuli ni ya hamasa na kwamba, atakuwa maarufu kwa kipindi kifupi, anaandika Faki Sosi.

''Akizungumza na wanzuoni kutoka ndani na nje ya nchi nyumbani kwake Masaki, jijini Dar es Salaam jana Lowassa amesema, pamoja na hamasa anayofanya Rais Magufuli tangu aingie madarakani, haoni mafanikio ya uchumi wa taifa hili katika siku zijazo''

Miongoni mwa mambo ambayo Lowassa amesema yanamshangaza kwenye utawala wa Rais John Magufuli ni kuingilia hatua ya ugawaji fedha hivyo kupuuza chombo chenye mamlaka hayo ambacho ni bunge.

“Kazi ya rais si kugawa fedha, kazi hii hufanywa na bunge kwa kuwa ndio yenye mamlaka ya kuidhinisha bajeti,” amesema.
Lowassa ambaye alikuwa mgombea urais kwenye Uchaguzi Mkuu mwaka jana kupitia Chadema na kuungwa mkono na Ukawa amewaeleza wanazuoni hao walioongozwa na Profesa Lwekeza Mukandala, Mkuu wa Chuo Kikuu cha Dar es Salaam (UDSM) kwamba, hatua ya utumbuaji majipu inayofanywa na Rais Magufuli kabla ya kujiridhisha ina kasoro.

“Nasononeshwa ninapoona wafanyakazi wa mashirika na taasisi za umma wanaachishwa kazi bila utaratibu,” amesema.
Lowassa amesema kuwa, wakati Rais Magufuli akijinasibu kwamba anataka nchi ya viwanda, hali hio ni ngumu kufikiwa iwapo serikali yake itakosa ‘sapoti’ kutoka kwenye mataifa mengine ikiwemo Marekani.
Amesema hatua ya mataifa mbalimbali duniani kuisitishia misaada Tanzania ni pigo na maumivu makubwa katika uchumi wake.
“Wahisani si watu wa kuwabeza…, wanaweza kuturudisha nyuma, Jakaya (Rais Jakaya Kikwete) kwa kaisi fulani alijitahidi kidogo kuwavutia wawekezaji,” amesema.
Katika mazungumzo hayo Lowassa liwaambia wanazuoni hao kwamba, kwenye Uchaguzi Mkuu wa mwaka jana, upinzani ulishinda lakini Chama Cha Mainduzi (CCM) kilisaidiwa na vyombo vya dola.

ALIYEKUWA MBUNGE WA VITI MAALUM AFARIKI DUNIA

Aliyekuwa Mbunge wa Viti Maalumu (Chadema), Christina Mughwai Lissu amefariki dunia kwa ugonjwa wa saratani leo.

Kaka wa marehemu ambaye pia ni Mbunge wa Singida Mashariki, Tundu Lissu alituma taarifa kwenye mitandao ya jamii akisema amepata taarifa za msiba huo akiwa mkoani Kigoma.

Alisema Christina alikuwa amelazwa katika Hospitali ya Aga Khan, Dar es Salaam na alianza kuugua tangu mwaka jana.

“Nawasalimu kutoka Kibondo. Nina habari zisizokuwa njema. Dada yangu aliyekuwa mbunge wetu wa viti maalumu, Christina amefariki dunia muda mfupi uliopita katika hospitali ya Aga Khan, Dar es Salaam.

“Marehemu alikuwa akisumbuliwa na ugonjwa wa ‘cancer’ tangu mwaka jana. Kwa sasa niko nje ya Dar es Salaam na ndiyo kwanza taarifa hizi zimenifikia…” ilisema taarifa ya Lissu aliyoituma mitandaoni.

Christina alikuwa Mbunge wa Viti Maalumu wa Mkoa wa Singida tangu mwaka 2010 hadi 2015 na alikuwa Naibu Waziri Kivuli wa Wizara ya Fedha. Hakurudi bungeni katika uchaguzi wa 2015.

NAIBU KAMISHNA WA JESHI LA POLISI (DCP), ADRIANO MAGAYANE ANG'OLEWA ILI KUPISHA UCHUNGUZI DHIDI YAKE

Mkuu wa Jeshi la Polisi, IGP Ernest Mangu, amemwondoa kwenye nafasi yake, Mnunuzi wa Vifaa na Boharia Mkuu wa jeshi hilo, Naibu Kamishna wa Polisi (DCP), Adriano Magayane ili kupisha uchunguzi wa tuhuma dhidi yake.



Kuondolewa kwa DCP Magayane katika nafasi hiyo kunatokana na taarifa zilizochapishwa na vyombo vya habari hivi karibuni, kuwa anamiliki nyumba zaidi ya 40 na kumbi kadhaa za starehe ndani na nje ya Dar es Salaam.


Kwa mujibu wa Gazeti la Mtanzania, IGP Mangu amefikia uamuzi huo kwa kile kinachodaiwa kuwa tuhuma hizo ni nzito na zinalenga si kumfedhehesha yeye kama ofisa mkuu wa Jeshi la Polisi, lakini kwa jeshi zima.


“IGP Mangu amemwondoa mara moja DCP Magayane kutokana na tuhuma zinazomkabili, kwa kweli ni nzito, nadhani hatua zilizochukuliwa ni sahihi… unajua sisi askari tuna miiko ya utendaji kazi, sasa inapotokea tuhuma kama hizi kwa ofisa kama huyu, lazima uchunguzi wa kina ufanyike,” kilisema chanzo .


Kilisema kuwa uchunguzi dhidi ya ofisa huyo unafanywa na Ofisi ya Mkurugenzi wa Upelelezi wa Makosa ya Jinai (DCI), Kamishna Diwani Athumani.


Katika mabadiliko hayo, habari za ndani zinasema kuwa DCP Magayane amehamishiwa Makao Makuu ya Polisi, Kitengo cha Uzuiaji wa Makosa.


Alipoulizwa ana, IGP Mangu alikiri kumwondoa ofisa huyo, lakini hakueleza amepangwa kitengo gani.


“Ni kweli nimemwondoa kwenye nafasi yake jana (juzi) ili kupisha uchunguzi wa suala hili kwani ni zito, lazima tujiridhishe kabla ya kuchukua hatua zaidi,” alisema.


Alipoulizwa ni nafasi gani ambayo atapewa DCP Magayane baada ya kuhamishiwa Makao Makuu ya Polisi, IGP Mangu alisema jeshi hilo lina kazi nyingi hivyo atapangiwa majukumu mengine bila kuingia kwa undani.


Aidha, IGP Mangu alisema ameagiza uchunguzi wa tuhuma hizo zilizotolewa kwenye vyombo vya habari, uanze mara moja ili wajiridhishe kabla kuchukua hatua zaidi.


Pamoja na uamuzi huo wa IGP Mangu, tayari vyombo vya dola vimeanza kumuhoji DCP Magayane, ikiwamo kumtaka awasilishe nyaraka zinazohusu umiliki wa mali zake zote.


Kutokana na hali hiyo, IGP Mangu amelazimika kufanya mabadiliko madogo ndani ya jeshi na kumteua Kamishna Msaidizi wa Polisi (ACP), Suzan Kaganda kushika nafasi ya DCP Magayane.


ACP Kaganda amewahi pia kuwa msaidizi wa Boharia Mkuu miaka kadhaa iliyopita kabla ya kuwa msemaji wa Jeshi la Polisi mwaka 2007 hadi 2008, baada ya kustaafu kwa aliyekuwa msemaji, ACP Abdallah Msika.


Mbali na kushika wadhifa huo, ACP Kaganda aliwahi pia kuwa Ofisa Mnadhimu wa Polisi Mkoa wa Dodoma na baadae kuteuliwa kuwa Kamanda wa Polisi Mkoa wa Dodoma ambako alihudumu kwa miaka miwili kabla ya kuhamishiwa Mkoa wa Tabora.

VIGOGO WAWILI MALIASILI WATIWA HATIANI KWA KUSAFIRISHA TUMBILI 61

Kikosi kazi maalumu cha kuchunguza makosa makubwa ya kihalifu kimewatia mbaroni vigogo wawili wa Wizara ya Maliasili na Utalii, wakihusishwa na utoaji wa kibali cha kusafirisha tumbili 61 kwenda nchini Albania.


Maofisa hao ni Mkurugenzi wa Idara ya Matumizi Endelevu ya Wanyamapori, Dk Charles Mulokozi na ofisa mfawidhi wa kituo cha uwindaji wa kitalii, utalii wa picha na Sites cha jijini Arusha, Nyangabo Musika.


Kikosi hicho kinaundwa na wachunguzi kutoka Polisi, Idara ya Uhamiaji, Usalama wa Taifa, Ofisi ya Mwanasheria Mkuu wa Serikali, kikosi cha kupambana na ujangili nchini na Takukuru.


Wakati Dk Mulokozi anakamatwa, tayari alikuwa amesimamishwa kazi kwa agizo la Waziri wa Maliasili na Utalii, Profesa Jumanne Maghembe kwa kutoa kibali wakati Serikali ilishazuia.


Vyanzo mbalimbali vimesema jana kuwa Dk Mulokozi alikamatwa mwishoni mwa wiki na jana alisafirishwa chini ya ulinzi kwenda kituo cha polisi cha Uwanja wa Ndege wa Kimataifa wa Kilimanjaro (Kia).


“Hivi tunavyozungumza, Dk Mulokozi yuko njiani anapelekwa Kia chini ya ulinzi mkali wa polisi.Nyangabo yeye tayari yuko mikononi mwa vyombo vya ulinzi na usalama pale Kia,” kilidokeza chanzo chetu cha uhakika.


Kamanda wa Polisi Mkoa wa Kilimanjaro, Wilbroad Mutafungwa alipoulizwa jana hakukanusha wala kukiri kuwa na taarifa za kukamatwa vigogo hao, lakini alisema atakuwa na mamlaka ya kuliongelea wakiingia mkoani kwake.


“Bado sijapewa hizo taarifa, lakini hata kama ningezijua nisingeweza kuzungumzia tukio la kukamatwa kwao lililofanyika mkoa mwingine. Nikikabidhiwa ndiyo naweza kusema chochote,” alisema Kamanda huyo.


Hata hivyo, Waziri Maghembe alithibitisha kukamatwa kwa vigogo hao, akisema katika tukio hilo yeyote aliyetia mkono wake lazima akamatwe na kushitakiwa.


“Ni kweli Dk Mulokozi amekamatwa na siyo yeye tu kuna ofisa mwingine pale ofisi yetu ya Arusha naye tumemkamata. Hatuna mchezo katika suala hili,” alisisitiza.


Profesa Maghembe alitumia fursa hiyo kusisitiza kuwa raia wa Uholanzi waliokamatwa na polisi hawakuwa na vibali halali vya kufanya biashara ya kusafirisha wanyama hai kwenda nje ya nchi kama baadhi ya watu wanavyodai.


“Hawa Waholanzi walikuwa na tourist visa (waliingia kama watalii). Halafu Watanzania waelewe mtu hawezi kupata kibali cha kusafirisha mnyama hai kabla ya kumkamata, kuhesabiwa, akakaguliwa na kupata vibali stahiki,” alisisitiza.


Raia hao wa kigeni ambao ni ndugu wa familia moja, Artem Alik Vardanyian (52) ni mkurugenzi wa mgahawa huko Uholanzi na Eduard Alik Vardanyian (44), meneja wa hoteli huko huko Uholanzi.


Hata hivyo, vyanzo vingine vimedai kuwa pamoja na kuwapo kwa vibali hivyo, lakini hapakuwapo na “release order” inayotolewa na Mamlaka ya Mapato Tanzania (TRA), kama sheria inavyoelekeza.


Chanzo hicho kilidai wanyama hao walikuwa wasafirishwe kwa kutumia ndege ya mizigo ya kukodi ambayo ilitokea Afrika Kusini na ilikuwa iwapeleke wanyama hao Albania kupitia Nairobi nchini Kenya na Nigeria.


“Hao marubani wa hiyo ndege waliitwa pale Polisi (Kia), wakaandikisha maelezo yao kuwa walikuja kuchukua wanyama hao na wakaambiwa wao waondoke tu hakuna mnyama anaondoka,” alidokeza ofisa mmoja katika uwanja wa Kia.
