Maximo Kuwatema Wazee

2009-04-24 14:02:56 By Jimmy Charles
Kocha Mkuu wa timu ya taifa, Taifa Stars, Marcio Maximo, amesema atawaacha wachezaji wakongwe kwenye kikosi chake atakachokitangaza leo. Kikosi cha Stars kinatarajia kutangazwa leo tayari kwa ajili ya maandalizi ya mchezo wa kirafiki wa kimataifa dhidi ya Mabingwa wa Afrika kwa wachezaji wanaocheza ligi za nyumbani (CHAN), timu ya taifa ya Jamhuri ya Kidemokrasi ya Kongo. Stars, inatarajia kujipima ubavu na Kongo, Mei 9 kama maandalizi ya kujiandaa na mchezo mwingine wa kirafiki wa kimataifa dhidi ya timu ya taifa ya New Zealand utakaochezwa Juni 3, kwenye Uwanja wa Taifa, jijini, Dar es Salaam. Akizungunmza na Nipashe jana, Maximo alisema kuwa katika kuhakikisha anawaachia watanzania wachezaji watakaolitumikia taifa lao kwa muda mrefu, amedhamiria kuachana na wachezaji wenye umri mkubwa pamoja na wale wasiokuwa na nidhamu kuanzia kwenye klabu zao hadi kwenye timu ya taifa. Maximo, alisema kuwa kikosi chake kitakuwa na wachezaji wengi wenye umri mdogo, ambao atawachanganya na baadhi ya wachezaji wenye uzoefu lakini hawana umri mkubwa. Alisema kuwa kikosi chake kitawashtua watu lakini hilo halitampa tabu kwani malengo yake ni kutekeleza kile alichopanga kuifanyia Tanzania kabla ya kuachana nayo mwakani. ``Najua nitawashtua watu kwenye kikosi changu nitakachokitangaza Ijumaa, lakini sitajali, lengo langu ni kuhakikisha nawaachia watanzania hazina ya wachezaji,``alisema Maximo. Alisema vijana atakaowajumuisha kwenye kikosi chake watakuwa na kati ya umri wa miaka 18, 19, 20 hadi 28, ambapo kama mchezaji atakuwa amevuka kwenye umri huo atakuwa amepoteza sifa ya kuitwa kwenye kikosi chake. Baadhi ya wachezaji waliokuwa kwenye kikosi cha Maximo kilichokwenda Ivory Coast kwenye michuano ya CHAN ni Shaban Dihile, Deo Mushi, Shadreck Nsajigwa, Salum Swed, Amir Maftah, Juma Jabu, Godfrey Bony,Kigi Makassy,Athumani Idd, Henry Joseph, Mrisho Ngasa, Musa Mgosi,Mwinyi Kazimoto,Haruna Moshi na Jerry Tegete.

Mengi na Mafisadi

Mengi ataja mafisadi papa 2009-04-24 14:38:18 Na Muhibu Said
Mwenyekiti Mtendaji wa Makampuni ya IPP, Reginald Mengi, amewataja watu watano wanaotuhumiwa kuhusika na ufisadi mkubwa nchini na kuitaka serikali iwashughulikie haraka iwezekanavyo ili kuinusuru nchi kuyumbishwa nao. Watu hao, ambao Mengi alisema kwamba wanatuhumiwa kuwa ni `mafisadi papa`, ni pamoja na Mbunge wa Igunga na Mjumbe wa Kamati Kuu ya Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CC-CCM) na Halmashauri Kuu ya Chama hicho (NEC-CCM) Taifa, Rostam Aziz. Aliwataja wengine, kuwa ni wafanyabiashara, Tanil Somaiya, Yusuf Manji, Jeetu Patel na Subash Patel, ambao alisema wanatuhumiwa kuiba mabilioni ya wananchi na kuzihamishia nje ya nchi. ``Hawa wanatuhumiwa kuiba mabilioni ya fedha za wananchi, na baya zaidi fedha hizo zimehamishiwa nje ya nchi,`` alisema Mengi alipozungumza na waandishi wa habari katika Ofisi za IPP Limited, jijini Dar es Salaam jana na kuongeza: ``…mafisadi wote na hasa wale wanaotuhumiwa kuwa mafisadi papa ni lazima washughulikiwe, la sivyo wataiyumbisha na kuitingisha nchi yetu. Ni lazima Watanzania tuone kwamba sasa tumefika mahali pa kusema imetosha.`` Alisema watu hao ni kati ya watuhumiwa wasiozidi kumi wanaotuhumiwa kwa ufisadi mkubwa nchini na kuongeza kuwa wanahusishwa na karibu kila kashfa kubwa nchini, ikiwamo inayohusu kampuni hewa ya Richmond, ambayo ilitiliana saini na Shirika la Umeme nchini (Tanesco) mkataba tata wa kufua umeme wa dharura. Kashfa nyingine, ambayo watu hao wanahusishwa nayo, alisema inahusu Akaunti ya Malipo ya Madeni ya Nje (EPA) kwenye Benki Kuu ya Tanzania (BoT), ambamo imethibitika kuchotwa Sh. bilioni 133 kwa njia za kifisadi na ile inayohusu kampuni ya Dowans Tanzania Limited, iliyorithi mkataba tata wa Richmond. Nyingine, inahusu ununuzi wa helikopta na magari ya jeshi, ndege ya Rais, rada, Shirika la Taifa la Hifadhi ya Jamii (NSSF), Mfuko wa Pensheni ya Watumishi wa Umma (PSPF), Bahati Nasibu ya Taifa na Mradi wa Makaa ya Mawe wa Mchuchuma. Alisema jitihada kubwa za Rais Jakaya Kikwete za kuleta maendeleo na maisha bora kwa kila Mtanzania, zimekuwa zikidhoofishwa na wizi mkubwa wa rasilimali za taifa, huku Watanzania wengi wakiandamwa na umaskini mkubwa, ikiwamo kutojua hata mlo mmoja kwa siku utatoka wapi. ``Chakusikitisha ni kwamba, pale Mtanzania mwema mwenye uwezo anaposaidia jamii kuondokana na umaskini, mafisadi wanapiga kelele kuwa misaada ya aina hiyo ina agenda. Wanapinga, wanataka Watanzania wafe kwa njaa na matatizo mengine,`` alisema Mengi. Alisema inavyoonekana, nia ya watu hao ni kutaka kuvuruga nchi na kwamba, si ajabu wakaunga mkono matatizo yanayotokana na kampuni ya Development Enterpreneurship Community (Deci) iliyokuwa ikichezesha mchezo wa upatu na Watanzania wakabaki wakifukuzana na wachungaji bila kujiuliza ni kina nani hasa wanachochea vurugu hizo. Mengi alisema ‘mafisadi papa, hawawaibii tu Watanzania rasilimali, bali wanawaibia pia muda. ``Badala ya kutumia muda katika shughuli za maendeleo tunajikuta tukitumia muda mwingi kupambana nao, na hawatingishiki. Badala yake wanatumia fedha walizotuibia kuanzisha magazeti ya kujenga kiburi cha kutudharau, kututukana na kutunyanyasa. Inakuwa kesi ya mwizi kumkimbiza na kumpiga aliyeibiwa,`` alisema Mengi. Alisema hata hivi sasa, `mafisadi papa` wanaendelea kutumia uwezo wao wa kiuchumi uliotokana na wizi wa rasilimali za nchi kushawishi na kupata miradi mikubwa mikubwa kwa kutumia majina tofauti tofauti, huku wakipuuza kabisa kelele za wananchi kuhusu ufisadi huo. Mengi alisema Watanzania wanaolia na ufisadi, ni mamilioni wakiongozwa na Rais Kikwete, lakini wapo wachache waliojitokeza na wanajulikana kwa majina. Alisema zipo habari kwamba, wanaotuhumiwa kuwa `mafisadi papa`, wamedhamiria kuwatokomeza kabisa wanaopiga vita ufisadi wanaojulikana kwa majina. Kutokana na habari hizo, alisema: ``Mafisadi papa ni lazima wajue kwamba iwapo wapambanaji hao wa ufisadi watadhuriwa kwa njia yoyote hapa nchini au nje ya nchi, watawajibishwa na wananchi wa Tanzania.`` Aliongeza: ``Ni lazima Watanzania sasa tujiulize, hivi hawa mafisadi wanapata wapi ujasiri wa majigambo, dharau na nguvu za kututukana na kutunyanyasa?`` Awali, Mengi alisema nia njema ya Rais Kikwete ya kupambana na mafisadi na aina zote za uovu zimewashtua mafisadi na sasa wamecharuka na wanapambana na watu wote wanaomsaidia kupambana nao kuwazuia wasiendelee kuitafuna nchi. Rostam amekuwa akituhumiwa kuwa mmoja wa wamiliki wa kampuni ya Kagoda Agriculture Limited, inayodaiwa kuchota Sh. bilioni 40 kwenye EPA, tuhuma ambazo amekuwa akizikanusha. Shubash Patel anakabiliwa na sakata la kuchukua ardhi ya wanakijiji kwa njia za hila eneo ambalo kuna madini ya chuma, katika eneo la Mchuchuma, Iringa. Tanil Somaiya anatajwa kuwa ni mshirika kwa mtuhumiwa wa ununuzi wa rada, Shailesh Prapji Vithlani ambaye tayari ana kesi katika mahakama ya Kisutu alikoshitakiwa bila kuwepo nchini. Katika sakata la rada, serikali ililizwa kiasi kikubwa cha fedha huku zaidi ya Dola milioni 12 zikiingia katika mifuko ya waliofanikisha ununuzi huo. Somaiya na Vithlani walikuwa wanamiliki kampuni nchini iliyohusika na kashfa hiyo. Jeetu Patel kwa sasa ana kesi za EPA katika mahakama ya Kisutu zikihusu kampuni zake tano tofauti ambazo zilihusika kuchota mabilioni ya fedha kati ya Sh bilioni 133 zilizochotwa kifisadi.

Mengi on Corruption

Five grand corruption `sharks` named 2009-04-24 12:52:23 By Patrick Kisembo
IPP Limited Executive Chairman Reginald Mengi yesterday named five people he described as ``notoriously corrupt sharks``. He also called on the public to be more courageous in stamping out corruption, a monster he said has been eating up Tanzania’s resources and stealing people`s precious time. Addressing a news conference in Dar es Salaam, Mengi said the country was facing serious problems due to grand corruption and was ``troubled by the fact that the people involved in acts of corruption do not want to be touched``. He explained that the “notoriously corrupt people” were involved in almost all scandals the country has been witnessing. These include those revolving around the Richmond and Dowans emergency power generation contracts, the Bank of Tanzania`s external payment arrears account (EPA), purchases of military helicopters and vehicles, the presidential jet, Radar, National Social Security Fund (NSSF), Public Service Pension Fund (PSPF) and National Lottery. Here is the full text of the statement the IPP Executive Chairman issued at yesterday`s news conference: ``Our country is currently facing a huge problem of corruption and is troubled by the fact that the people involved in acts of corruption do not what to be touched. The resolve by our President, His Excellency Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete, to fight corruption and all other evils has shaken these people and they are now determined more than ever to combat all the people who are supporting the President in stopping further plunder of our country`s resources. ``Tanzanians should know that people who are being accused of being corrupt in our country do not exceed ten, and out of the ten, five are being accused of being notoriously corrupt - ``corrupt sharks``. ``These are: Rostam Aziz, Tanil Somaiya, Yusuf Manji, Jeethu Patel and Subash Patel. These people are being accused of stealing billions of public money, and to make this worse, the billions have been transferred out of the country. ``These notoriously corrupt people are involved in almost all scandals that have happened in our country, including those concerning Richmond, EPA, Dowans, Army helicopters and vehicles, the Presidential Jet, Radar, NSSF, PSPF, National Lottery etc, etc. ``The great efforts of His Excellency the President to hasten economic development and better living for every Tanzanian are weakened by the horrendous theft of national resources. A great majority of Tanzanians still face extreme poverty; they are unable to determine where the one meal a day is going to come from. To make things worse, where a Tanzanian with better means provides assistance to lessen hardship within the society and to eradicate poverty, these people involved in corruption allege that such assistance has political agenda. They want Tanzanians to starve or die as a result of other problems. ``It seems that their aim now is to cause national havoc; it will not be surprising to learn that these people support what is behind DECI while Tanzanians remain chasing Pastors instead of asking themselves the real source of the havoc. ``These notoriously corrupt people are not only stealing our national resources; they are also stealing our precious time. Instead of using our time for economic development we are using most of it to combat corruption. ``Our efforts have failed to even cause a dent; instead these corrupt people have been hardened in their determination. They have established newspapers that are abusive and treat Tanzanians with contempt. ``They have created a scenario where the thief chases and attacks the person from whom he has stolen. Even as Tanzanians continue to cry foul, the notoriously corrupt people continue to use their ill-obtained wealth to influence the granting of big contracts to them often in different names. ``Millions of Tanzanians are combating corruption, but there are a few who have come forward vehemently and are known by their names. The notoriously corrupt people have been heard to say that they will annihilate these vehement combatants. ``The notoriously corrupt people should know that if the combatants are harmed in any way in this country or any other country, they will be answerable to the people of Tanzania. ``We Tanzanians must now ask ourselves - what gives these notoriously corrupt people the audacity to treat Tanzanians with contempt? ``I would like to conclude by saying that all corrupt people and especially those who are being accused of notorious corruption must be dealt with conclusively, otherwise they will rock the stability of our nation. We must realise that we have now reached the stage when we must say enough is enough.``

Ngasa


Kwa muda mrefu nimekuwa nikiota kuona mchezaji wa tanzania akicheza ulaya.Kwa sisi tuishio nje ya Tanzania tunatamani kusema mchezaji huyu ni wa Tanzania lakini bado haijawahi kutokea tunabaki kusema huyu ni Mwafrika mwenzetu.Kama Mrisho Ngasa atafanikiwa katika majaribio yake ya West Ham basi atakuwa ni mchezaji wa kwanza wa kitanzania kwenye ligi kubwa ya ulaya.

Nakutakia mafanikio mema kwenye majaribio yako,na hata kama yasipoenda sawa sio mwisho wa njia.Itakuwa furaha next time nacheza gemu kwenye PS3 au Xbox na kuona jina la Mtanzania ndani.

Kila la Kheri.
