MANDELA IN "SATISFACTORY CONDITION" AFTER OPERATION

Johannesburg (CNN) -- South African anti- apartheid icon Nelson Mandela successfully underwent hernia surgery Saturday, a family member told CNN Saturday. Mandela was "comfortable" and in "a satisfactory condition" Saturday, said the South African president, who referred to the medical event only as "a planned procedure." The 93-year-old likely will be discharged within the next two days, a Mandela relative told CNN. Considered the founding father of South Africa's democracy, Mandela became an international figure when he endured 27 years in prison for fighting racial segregation. He was freed in 1990, and three years later, he and then-South African President F.W. de Klerk won the Nobel Peace Prize. In 1994, Mandela was elected president, serving only one term as he had promised. On Saturday, President Jacob Zuma said Mandela was being treated for a "longstanding abdominal complaint." The president referred to Mandela by his affectionate clan name Madiba. "Madiba is fine and fully conscious and the doctors are satisfied with his condition, which they say is consistent with his age," Zuma said in a statement Saturday afternoon. "He was in good health before admission in hospital but doctors felt the complaint needed a thorough investigation. He underwent a diagnostic procedure as part of his ongoing medical management. We are happy that he is not in any danger and thank the doctors for their hard work and professionalism," Zuma said. A government official assured the public that Mandela's hospital stay was not an emergency. "People need not panic. This was planned ... Mandela has had abdominal pains for sometime," said Keith Khoza, a spokesman for the ruling African National Congress. Officials and family declined to name the hospital where the former president is undergoing treatment. Mandela last appeared in public in the closing ceremonies of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa. He was hospitalized last year for treatment of an acute respiratory infection, and continued to receive treatment at home after doctors discharged him. Despite his rare appearances, Mandela retains his popularity and is considered a hero of democracy here. He spent 27 years in prison after being convicted of sabotage and attempts to overthrow the former apartheid regime. In a life fighting the racism of apartheid he went from being considered a terrorist to jailed freedom fighter to nation builder to elder statesman respected in the world's capitals. Clint Eastwood's 2009 film "Invictus," starring Morgan Freeman as Mandela, dramatizes Mandela's nation-healing presidency in the 1990s. Mandela relocated to his childhood town of Qunu last year, but moved back to his Johannesburg home earlier this year. At the time, Zuma said the move was because the home in his boyhood town was undergoing maintenance. Members of the public can send messages to Mandela through President Zuma to president@po.gov.za, officials said.

ARSHAVIN, SAMBA WAKIMBILIA RUSSIA

Arshavin amejiunga na klabu yake ya zamani ya Zennit Petrsburg ya Urusi kwa mkopo hadi mwishoni mwa msimu, mchezaji huyo ambae alikuwa akiipigia klabu hiyo kabla ya kuhamia Arsenal amalazimika kuchukua maamuzi hayo baada ya nafasi yake katika kikosi cha kwanza kuwa ngumu klabuni hapo tangu kuwasili kwa Gevinho toka Lille mwanzoni mwa msimu, ili kujihakikishia nafasi ya kuichezea timu yake ya Taifa katika michuano ya Ulaya mwezi Juni imembidi Arshavin kufanya hivyo
Wakati huo huo beki wa klabu ya Blackburn Rivers ya Uingereza Chriss Samba amejiunga na Matajiri wa Urusi Anzhi Makachkalla kwa uhamisho wa ada ambayo haijawekwa bayana.

ARSENAL & TOTTENHAM ZAONYA MASHABIKI WAKE

Timu za soka zinazotokea katika jiji la London na zilizo katika Big 4 ya ligi kuu ya England zimewaonya mashabiki wake kujiepusha na vitendo vya kibaguzi katika kuelekea mchezo mkali kabisa utakaozikutanisha timu hizo siku ya jumapili.
Katika mchezo huo Mshambuliaji wa zamani wa klabu hiyo Emmanuel Adebayor atakuwa akirejea kwa mara ya kwanza toka ajiunge na Tottenham Hotspurs kwa mkopo akitokea Manchester City. Adebayor ambae anatarajia mapokezi mabaya katika uwanja wa Emirates amekuwa katika kiwango bora kabisa msimu huu mara baada ya kutolewa kwa mkopo kwa Real Madrid msimu uliopita na sasa akiichezea Tottenham ambapo katika mcchezo uliopita ambao Tottenham iliifunga timu ngumu ya Newcastle 5 - 0, Adebayor alihusika katika utengenezaji wa magoli manne na yeye kufunga moja.
Kauli toka kwa klabu hizo imekuja mara baada ya Waziri mkuu wa England Mh David Cameron kutoa karipio kali juu ya vitendo vya kibaguzi katika soka hapo jana katika mkutano dhidi yake na chama cha soka cha Uingereza FA, Cameron alisema kama jambo hilo lisiposhughulikiwa kwa ufasaha litaurudisha mchezo wa soka nyuma katika miaka ambapo ubaguzi ulishamiri.

WARAKA WA SIRI TOKA KWA MH. HARRISON MWAKYEMBE

AUSAMBAZA KWA NDUGU, JAMAA NA MARAFIKI ZAKE WA KARIBU NAIBU Waziri wa Ujenzi anayeugua ugonjwa uliozusha utata mkubwa serikalini, Dk. Harrison Mwakyembe, ameandika waraka mahususi unaoeleza kile anachokiamini kuwa ni chanzo cha ugonjwa wake, Tanzania Daima Jumatano limebaini. Waraka huo ambao gazeti hili limeuona mbali ya kueleza kile ambacho Mwakyembe mwenyewe anaamini kuwa ni chanzo cha ugonjwa wake, unaeleza pia jinsi alivyoanza kuugua, watu anaowashuku kuwa nyuma ya mpango huo, siku na tarehe aliyodhani kuwa ndiyo aliyowekewa sumu hiyo. Kama hiyo haitoshi, Mwakyembe katika waraka wake huo pasipo kueleza chanzo halisi cha undani wa taarifa zake, anaeleza mbinu iliyotumika kumdhuru na mahala mpango huo wa kumdhuru ulipopangwa. Uchunguzi uliofanywa na gazeti hili umebaini kwamba Dk. Mwakyembe ambaye kwa sasa yuko nchini India ameusambaza waraka huo kwa ndugu, jamaa na marafiki zake wa karibu. Katika waraka huo, Dk. Mwakyembe anaeleza kwamba anaamini alipewa sumu hiyo akiwa ofisini kwake huku akitaja majina ya watu anaowatuhumu kuwa nyuma ya mpango huo ambao gazeti hili kwa sasa linahifadhi majina yao. Kwa mujibu wa Dk. Mwakyembe, mara tu baada ya kuwekewa sumu hiyo alianza kuwashwa mwili kabla ya hali kuendelea kuzorota na kuwa mbaya. Akionekana kujibu hoja za Mkurugenzi wa Makosa ya Jinai (DCI), Robert Manumba, mwanasiasa huyo katika waraka wake anaeleza kwamba hakuwekewa sumu hiyo kwenye chakula, bali kwenye sabuni na kitaulo cha kujifutia, ambacho huwekwa kwenye chumba maalumu ofisini kwake kwa ajili ya kusafisha mikono na huduma nyingine awapo ofisini. Vyanzo vyetu vya habari kutoka kwa ndugu na marafiki wa karibu wa Dk. Mwakyembe vilisema kuwa, naibu waziri huyo ambaye pia ni Mbunge wa Kyela, amefikia hatua ya kuandika waraka huo kwa lengo la kutaka kuijulisha familia yake na taifa kile anachoamini anakabiliana nacho endapo atapoteza maisha kabla ya ukweli kamili kubainishwa. Hata hivyo, kutokana na ukweli kwamba suala hilo la afya ya Dk. Mwakyembe liko katika hatua za uchunguzi, Tanzania Daima Jumatano haliwezi kuandika kwa undani kuhusu waraka huo kwa sasa. Ukiacha hilo, Dk. Mwakyembe katika waraka huo ameelezea historia ya maisha yake kisiasa na mikasa iliyompata kiasi cha kujijengea maadui.Ameeleza jinsi alivyonusurika kuuawa mara kadhaa na kwamba taarifa zote za mikasa yake aliziripoti polisi, lakini hakuna hatua zilizochukuliwa na Jeshi hilo la Polisi. Baadhi ya mikasa aliyoitaja kwenye waraka huo ni pamoja na tukio la kunusurika kuuawa kwenye ajali ya gari iliyotokea Mei 21, mwaka 2009. Ajali hiyo ilitokea eneo la Ihemi, kilomita 40 kutoka Iringa mjini akiwa safarini kutokea Mbeya kwenda Dar es Salaam. Kwa mujibu wa waraka huo, gari alilokuwa akisafiria aina ya Toyota Land Cruiser T 362 ACH, liliacha njia saa moja asubuhi baada ya kukanyaga shimo na tairi ya upande wa kulia kuchomoka na dereva wake, Joseph Msuya (30), kupoteza mwelekeo kabla ya gari hilo kutoka nje ya barabara upande wa kushoto na kuparamia mti kisha kupinduka. Ajali hiyo ilitokea wakati dereva wa Dk. Mwakyembe akijaribu kulipita lori kabla ya kukanyaga shimo hilo. Anasema katika ajali hiyo aliokolewa na wasamaria wema pamoja na trafiki wawili waliokuwa kwenye basi dogo waliokuwa wakisafiri kutoka Iringa kwenda Njombe. Anasema katika waraka huo kuwa, baada ya ajali hiyo alilazwa katika Hospitali ya Mkoa wa Iringa kutokana na kuumia taya kisha alihamishiwa Dar es Salaam kwa matibabu zaidi. Kwa mujibu wa waraka huo, Mkuu wa Jeshi la Polisi (IGP), Said Mwema, aliunda tume iliyoongozwa na Mkuu wa Kikosi cha Usalama Barabarani wakati huo, Kamanda James Kombe, kuchunguza chanzo cha ajali hiyo. Matokeo yalionesha kwamba ilisababishwa na uzembe wa dereva wake, Msuya wakati Dk. Mwakyembe akiamini kwamba ajali hiyo ilipangwa.Februari 9, mwaka 2011, Dk. Mwakyembe aliandika barua kwa Inspekta Jenerali wa Polisi (IGP), Said Mwema, akimpa taarifa juu ya kuwapo kwa njama za kutaka kumuua yeye pamoja na viongozi wengine. Wengine aliowataja katika barua hiyo ni pamoja na Katibu Mkuu wa Chama cha Demokrasia na Maendeleo (CHADEMA), Dk. Willibrod Slaa, mfanyabiashara maarufu nchini, Reginald Mengi, Waziri wa Maji na Umwagiliaji, Profesa Mark Mwandosya, Waziri wa Mambo ya Nje na Ushirikiano wa Kimataifa, Bernard Membe na Mbunge wa Same Mashariki, Anne Kilango Malecela. Katika orodha hiyo ya Mwakyembe kwa IGP, hadi sasa kiongozi mwingine ambaye anaumwa ni Profesa Mark Mwandosya.

SITTA - MWAKYEMBE KALISHWA SUMU, POLISI WANAPOTOSHA

WAZIRI wa Ushirikiano wa Afrika Mashariki, Samuel Sitta ameendelea kusisitiza kwamba ugonjwa unaomsumbua Naibu Waziri wa Ujenzi, Dk. Harrison Mwakyembe, unatokana na kulishwa sumu. Kauli yake imekuja baada ya Jeshi la Polisi nchini kueleza kwamba ugonjwa unaomsumbua Naibu Waziri huyo hausababishwi na kula chakula chenye sumu; kauli iliyomuibua Dk. Mwakyembe na kudai Jeshi hilo halikumtendea haki akisema si lazima unyeshwe sumu ili ikudhuru. Sitta amesema, hoja ya Jeshi la Polisi kueleza kuwa suala hilo linahitaji ushahidi ni kuupotosha umma ili usielewe nini kinachomsumbua Dk. Mwakyembe ambaye pia ni Mbunge wa Jimbo la Kyela mkoani Mbeya. Akizungumza katika uzinduzi wa Asasi ya Kiraia ya Vijana wa Kanisa Katoliki mkoani Tabora (VITAL) uliofanyika kwenye Ukumbi wa Askofu Mkuu Marco Mihayo, Sitta ambaye ni Mbunge wa Urambo mkoani hapa, alisema yeye kama Waziri hawezi kusema uongo kuhusu jambo hilo. Alisema Jeshi la Polisi limekuwa likipotosha umma kukanusha kwamba Dk. Mwakyembe hajalishwa sumu ingawa Naibu Waziri huyo ana ushahidi wa kutosha kuhusu jambo hilo. “Mimi nitapigana hadi siku ya mwisho kutetea wanyonge na ninashangaa kuelezwa kwamba mimi nimeshitakiwa na Polisi kwamba nimepotosha umma kusema kwamba Dk. Mwakyembe amelishwa sumu. Na kwa taarifa yako Baba Askofu nimeelezwa jalada langu limepelekwa kwa Mkurugenzi wa Mashitaka nchini (DPP) ili nishitakiwe,” alisema Sitta. Alilishutumu Jeshi la Polisi kutokana na tabia ya kuhujumu watu na kusisitiza kuwa tabia hizo ni za kijambazi zinazoweza kuhatarisha hali ya usalama na maisha ya watu wanaozuliwa mashitaka kama hayo yanayomkabili. Akizungumza ufisadi, alisema amekuwa mstari wa mbele kupinga suala hilo kwa nguvu zote na atahakikisha anapigana kufa au kupona kupambana na watu wanaojilimbikizia mali kwa kutumia madaraka yao. Alisema jambo hilo halikubaliki na kwamba kwa sababu yupo hai, ataendelea kupambana nalo hadi hapo litakapoleta tija na hatimaye kuwawezesha wananchi wanufaike na rasilimali za nchi yao. Jeshi la Polisi kupitia Mkurugenzi wa Upelelezi wa Makosa ya Jinai (DCI), Kamishna Robert Manumba, lilieleza kuwa kwa taarifa ilizopewa na Wizara ya Afya na Ustawi wa Jamii na Hospitali ya Apollo nchini India, ni kwamba ugonjwa wa Dk. Mwakyembe haukutokana na kulishwa kitu chenye sumu. Lakini Dk. Mwakyembe katika taarifa yake juzi kwa vyombo vya habari hakueleza kwamba madaktari wamegundua kuwa amelishwa sumu, lakini akasema, “si lazima unyweshwe ili ikudhuru, inaweza kukudhuru hata kwa kugusishwa tu.” Alisema kwa mujibu wa taarifa ya madaktari wa Apollo, kuna kitu kwenye ujiuji wa ndani ya mifupa (bone marrow) kinachochea hali aliyonayo ambapo mabingwa wanahangaika kukifahamu. Sitta akizungumzia asasi aliyoizindua jana, alisema Serikali haina budi kuwaendeleza vijana na kuwawezesha ili wajishughulishe na shughuli mbalimbali za kiuchumi ikiwa ni mkakati wake wa kupambana na umasikini. Alieleza kwamba taifa lisiloangalia mustakabali wa vijana, linahatarisha usalama wake na kusababisha vitendo vya uhalifu vizidi kuongezeka kitu ambacho kinaweza kulifanya utawala wake uporomoke. Sitta alitoa kompyuta na printa yenye thamani ya Sh milioni moja na kuahidi kurejea tena kwa ajili ya kufanya harambee kubwa ambayo itasaidia kukusanya fedha kwa ajili ya asasi hiyo. Awali, Mwenyekiti wa Asasi hiyo, Deogratius Nzuki, alimueleza Waziri Sitta kwamba lengo la kuanzisha asasi hiyo ni kuwaunganisha vijana na kuwajenga kimaadili ili waitumikie nchi na Kanisa Katoliki vizuri.

ASAMOAH GYAN QUITS INTERNATIONAL FOOTBALL

Asamoah Gyan has decided to take an "indefinite break" from international football. The Black Stars key man sent a letter to the Ghanaian Football Association late on Friday night informing them of his decision, which had the "full support of family and friends". The 26-year-old has been capped 59 times by his country. He cited the "intolerable" abuse he has been subjected to following the Black Stars exit from the recent African Cup of Nations. The player has been at the butt end of serious critique from his countrymen, who have blamed him for repeatedly causing them heartache, after missing penalties in the African Cup against Zambia and a previous one against Uruguay. According to Gyan has said that is was "not a the decision lightly" to end his international career for the time being. He said it had been "an incredible honour" to represent his country having made his debut as a 17-year-old in 2003. The striker, on-loan at Al Ain from Premier League club Sunderland, concludes his letter, according to source at the Ghanaian FA, by stating he will notify the them when, and if, he wishes to return in the future. Gyan has scored 28 goals in 59 games for his country and netted on his debut against Somalia nine years ago

TAARIFA KWA VYOMBO VYA HABARI Nimelazimika leo Jumamosi, tarehe 18 Februari, 2012 kutoa taarifa hii kwa vyombo vya habari kufuatia mkutano wa DCI Robert Manumba na waandishi wa habari jana (17/02/12) kuongelea, pamoja na mambo mengine, hali yangu ya afya na kuhitimisha, kienyejienyeji tu kuwa “sikunyweshwa sumu” ila naumwa tu ugonjwa wa ngozi bila kufafanua ugonjwa huo wa ngozi umesababishwa na nini! Napenda nisisitize mapema kabisa kuwa msimamo huo wa Jeshi la Polisi umenikera sana katika hali niliyonayo ya ugonjwa, kwanza kwa kuingilia mchakato wa matibabu yangu na uchunguzi wa kina kuhusu kiini chake unaoendelea hospitali ya Apollo nchini India ambako bado sijahitimisha matibabu yangu; pili kwa ufinyu wa uelewa unaojitokeza bayana kwenye tamko la Jeshi la Polisi unaosisitiza kuwa “sikunyweshwa sumu” wakati sumu si lazima unyweshwe ili ikudhuru, inaweza kudhuru hata kwa kugusishwa tu; na tatu kwa Jeshi la Polisi kujiingiza kwenye suala ambalo kwa takriban mwaka mzima halijawahi kuwa na dhamira ya dhati ya kulielewa au kulichunguza mbali na kulifanyia mzaha kupitia magazetini. Itakumbukwa kuwa tarehe 9 Februari, 2011 nilimwandikia barua IGP Said Mwema kumtaarifu kuhusu njama za kuondoa maisha yangu na ya viongozi wengine. Kwa kutambua kuwa Jeshi la Polisi la Tanzania daima husisitiza kuletewa ushahidi kwanza ndipo lifanyekazi, nilihakikisha nimeainisha katika barua hiyo kila ushahidi nilioupata au kupewa. (Utaratibu huu wa Jeshi la Polisi kusubiri kuletewa ushahidi mezani, kama ambavyo mahakimu wanavyosubiri ushahidi mahakamani, haupo popote pale duniani (ila Tanzania tu) kwani kazi ya msingi ya Polisi si kuletewa, ni kutafuta ushahidi. Polisi wanachohitaji duniani kote ni kupata clue au tetesi tu. Hiyo inatosha kufukua ushahidi wote unaohitajika). Pamoja na kujitahidi kuanika kila aina ya ushahidi niliokuwa nao, mambo manne yalijitokeza ambayo yalionyesha wazi kuwa Polisi hawakuwa na dhamira ya dhati ya kupeleleza suala hilo: (i) Siku chache baada ya kumkabidhi IGP barua hiyo, nilitumiwa timu ya “wapelelezi” ofisini kwangu kuja kuchukua maelezo yangu ya ziada. Timu hiyo ilikuwa inaongozwa na ACP Mkumbo, afisa wa polisi ambaye wiki chache zilizokuwa zimepita alikuwa miongoni mwa askari waliotuhumiwa kupokea rushwa kwa lengo la kumbambikizia madawa ya kulevya mtoto wa Mwenyekiti wa IPP, Reginald Mengi, suala ambalo mpaka leo hii uongozi wa Polisi umeshindwa kulitolea maelezo ya kuridhisha. Kwa msingi huo, nilikuwa nimeletewa mtuhumiwa wa rushwa/ ujambazi kuendesha uchunguzi wa watuhumiwa wengine wa ujambazi! Nikatambua mara moja kuwa zoezi zima lilikuwa la mzaha, tena mzaha mkubwa! (ii) Wiki chache baada ya barua yangu kuwasilishwa kwa IGP na timu ya ACP Mkumbo “kuanza kazi”, Jeshi la Polisi likachukua hatua ya kuwapongeza na kuwazawadia askari niliowatuhumu kushirikiana na majambazi! Huhitaji kuwa profesa wa falsafa kuelewa kuwa huo ulikuwa ujumbe tosha wa kunipuuza. (iii) Hivi karibuni tuhuma za askari polisi kujihusisha na vitendo vya ujambazi mkoani Morogoro zilipopamba moto na kuwagusa askari “wale wale” niliowatuhumu kwenye barua yangu, IGP alichukua hatua ya kuwahamishia mikoa mingine! (iv) ili kunikatisha tamaa kabisa, barua yangu ya “siri” kwa IGP ikavujishwa kwa makusudi kwenye vyombo vya habari na kuchapishwa kama habari ambayo ilikebehi na kukanusha taarifa nzima niliyotoa, sijui kwa faida ya nani! Lakini huu ni mchezo wa kawaida kwa polisi kwani hivi karibuni Mhe. Waziri Samuel Sitta alipohojiwa na ofisa mwandamizi wa Jeshi la Polisi ofisini kwake, wakiwa wawili tu, taarifa ya kikao hicho ikawa kwenye moja ya magazeti ya mafisadi ikikebehi ushahidi aliotoa Sitta! The integrity of the police force leadership is on the line. Nimeelezea vizuri katika barua yangu kwa IGP kuwa kundi hilo la mauaji lilikuwa limeelekezwa kuniua kwa kutumia sumu, taarifa ambayo kwa karibu mwaka mzima Polisi hawakutaka kuifuatilia kwa sababu wanazozijua wenyewe. Sasa huu msukumo mpya wa Jeshi la Polisi kutaka kujua kama nilipewa sumu au la na kukurupuka kutoa tamko hata kabla ya kunichunguza nilivyo, kunihoji mimi na wasaidizi wangu ofisini na hata kuongea na mabingwa wa Kihindi wanaonifanyia uchunguzi, umetokea wapi? Si ni polisi hawahawa ambao, badala ya kushukuru, wamekuwa wakikerwa na tahadhari ambazo Waziri Sitta amekuwa akitoa ili suala hili lichunguzwe kwa kina? Aidha napata taabu kuamini kama DCI Manumba na wenzake waliisoma taarifa halisi ya matatibabu yangu au walisoma taarifa “nyingine”, na kama waliisoma taarifa hiyo wenyewe au “walisomewa”! Nasema hivyo kwa kuwa alichokisema DCI Manumba kwa wandishi wa habari hakifanani kabisa na picha iliyo kwenye taarifa halisi ya Apollo ambayo inatamka wazi kuwa kuna kitu kwenye bone marrow kinachochochea hali niliyonayo, kitu ambacho mabingwa wanahangaikia kukijua, kukidhibiti / kukiondoa huku vyombo vyetu vya dola vikipelekeshwa na mafisadi kusema bila msingi wa kisayansi wala aibu: “hakulishwa sumu”, “hakulishwa sumu”! Nimesoma darasa moja Kitivo cha Sheria Mlimani na DCI Manumba. Baadaye IGP Mwema alikuwa mwanafunzi wangu wa sheria Mlimani. Vigogo hawa wawili wa usalama wa raia nchini hawajanitendea haki, nao wanajua. Wanajua vilevile kuwa sitakaa kimya au kumung’unya maneno come what may pale ambapo haki inakanyagwa. Tuendelee kuombeana afya na uhai ili tutendeane haki na vilevile tuitendee nchi yetu haki kwa kuvimalizia viporo vinavyokera vya Dowans, EPA, Kagoda n.k. kwa maslahi mapana ya Taifa letu. Mungu Ibariki Tanzania.

WENGER TO SELL WALCOTT & OTHER 5 PLAYERS IN SUMMER: VAN PERSIE IS LIKELY TO GO TOO

Arsene Wenger is running out of patience with Theo Walcott and could sell the England forward in a summer clear-out. Arsenal’s humiliating 4-0 defeat by AC Milan on Wednesday night will have far-reaching consequences as the Gunners manager prepares to wield the axe, with Walcott the highest-profile player on his radar. Wenger launched a furious tirade at his players during a team meeting at the club’s London Colney training ground on Thursday, warning them that he will not tolerate any more performances like the debacle in Milan. Hauled off: Theo Walcott was substituted at half-time after a peripheral performance in Milan That embarrassing defeat has also put skipper Robin van Persie a step closer to leaving the club as Arsenal sources told Sportsmail that a number of players are now fighting for their futures. As former Gunners midfielder Emmanuel Petit claimed Walcott and other young players have not repaid Wenger’s faith in them, the manager has decided enough is enough and will ship out players who have underachieved. Petit was scathing of Arsenal’s performance, telling French website sofoot.com: ‘In midfield there isn’t anything now, the defence is constantly under construction. Stagnant: Emmanuel Petit (left) slammed Walcott for a lack of progress ‘Certain young players haven’t done enough to justify the confidence that Arsene has in them. ‘Walcott — somehow he’s going to have to reach the next stage. It’s been years that he’s been at the same level.’ Walcott was substituted at half-time and the arrival of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has cast doubt on whether the England winger is worth a starting place. Inept: The gulf in class between AC Milan and Arsenal was a sight to behold Andrey Arshavin, Marouane Chamakh, Sebastien Squillaci, Tomas Rosicky and Park Ju-young are all likely to leave and Van Persie, whose deal expires at the end of next season, has yet to sign a new contract. He cut a forlorn figure at the San Siro as the enormity of the defeat sunk in. Mario Gotze, Lukas Podolski and Eden Hazard are all on Wenger’s shopping list but Van Persie doubts he can sign them.

MAJAMBAZI YAVAMIA ENEO LA MLIMANI CITY

Majambazi yaliyokuwa na silaha nzito yamevamia katika kituo cha mafuta cha TOTAL kilichopembeni ya Mlimani City Supermarket na kupora mamilioni ya pesa.
Tukio hilo limetokea mishale ya saa6 - 7 ambapo majambazi hao wakiwa na silaha nzito walifunga eneo hilo kwa milio ya risasi na kupora kiasi kikubwa cha pesa ambacho hakijathibitishwa hadi sasa na kutoweka nazo kusikoeleweka. Polisi imethibitisha kutokea kwa tukio hilo na uchunguzi unaendelea ili kuwabaini majambazi hao ambapo mpaka sasa hakuna taarifa yoyote ya mtu aliyejeruhiwa au kupoteza maisha katika tukio hilo.
Matukio ya ujambazi yameendelea kulitikisa jiji la Dar es Salaam huku njia sahihi ya kukabiliana nao ikiwa bado haijavumbuliwa na mara nyingi Polisi wakionekana kuzidiwa nguvu na ujanja na majambazi ambao mara nyingi huwa na silaha nzito.

HONDURAS: FIRE KILLS 300 PRISONERS IN JAIL

A massive fire has swept through a jail in Honduras, killing at least 300 prisoners, officials say. Many victims were burned or suffocated to death in their cells at the jail in Comayagua, in central Honduras. The officials say at least 300 are confirmed dead, but a further 56 inmates, out of the 853 in the prison, are missing and presumed dead. An inquiry is under way whether the blaze was caused by rioting or an electrical fault. Relatives of suspected victims later tried to force their way into the prison, desperate for news. Police responded by firing shots into the air and tear gas. 'Hellish' scenes The fire broke out late on Tuesday night and took more than an hour to be brought under control. Dozens of prisoners died trapped in their cells and were burned beyond recognition. Comayagua firefighters' spokesman Josue Garcia said there were "hellish" scenes at the prison and that desperate inmates had rioted in a bid to escape the flames. "We couldn't get them out because we didn't have the keys and couldn't find the guards who had them," he said. Lucy Marder, who heads the forensic services in Comayagua, said that 356 people on the prison roster were unaccounted for. . "The majority could be dead, though others could have suffered burns, escaped or survived," Ms Marder said. It was feared many inmates had fled the prison in Comayagua, about 100km (60 miles) north of the capital Tegucigalpa. Amid the confusion, relatives gathered outside the prison to try to get information. "I'm looking for my brother. We don't know what's happened to him and they won't let us in," Arlen Gomez told Honduran radio. Local hospitals are treating dozens of people for burns and other injuries. Some of the injured have been taken to Tegucigalpa for treatment, among them 30 people with severe burns. Firefighters said they had struggled to enter the prison because shots had been fired. Honduran media reported that there had been a riot in the prison before the fire broke out. Prison service head Daniel Orellana denied this. "We have two hypotheses. One is that a prisoner set fire to a mattress and the other one is that there was a short-circuit in the electrical system," he was quoted as saying by Reuters. Prisons in Honduras, which has the world's highest murder rate, are often seriously overcrowded and hold many gang members.

Kesho patakuwa na michezo mingine kati ya Arsenal vs AC Milan na CSKA Moscow vs Real Madrid.

FA TO PUNISH SUAREZ

PFA chief executive Gordon Taylor believes it is time for the FA to intervene after Luis Suarez and Patrice Evra failed to shake hands before Manchester United's clash with Liverpool. The pair were meeting on the pitch for the first time since Suarez completed an eight-match suspension for racially abusing the Manchester United defender. Evra appeared to offer his hand to the Uruguay striker but he bypassed the Frenchman and went straight to David de Gea. That set the tone for a fractious encounter at Old Trafford in which the police were twice called on to intervene in incidents in the tunnel and dressing rooms and Evra sparked more controversy by wildly celebrating United's win in front of Evra at the final whistle. Taylor said: "What Suarez did was disrespectful, inappropriate and embarrassing. I just felt quite sick in my stomach. "If anything, Patrice Evra was the victim and he was prepared to put his hand out. "These players are expected to be role models but if we have a situation where nobody accepts the findings of hearings and just carries on regardless, all you get is anarchy. "Now the Football Association have to step in because the whole situation has gone too far. "Suarez had a chance to put everything to be yesterday, in front of a worldwide audience. "The fact that he chose not to is, quite frankly, depressing."

R.I.P: WHITNEY HOUSTON 48 DIED

Whitney Houston, who reigned as pop music's queen until her majestic voice and regal image were ravaged by drug use, erratic behavior and a tumultuous marriage to singer Bobby Brown, has died. She was 48. Publicist Kristen Foster said Saturday that the singer had died, but the cause and the location of her death were unknown. At her peak, Houston was the golden girl of the music industry. From the middle 1980s to the late 1990s, she was one of the world's best-selling artists. She wowed audiences with effortless, powerful, and peerless vocals that were rooted in the black church but made palatable to the masses with a pop sheen. Her success carried her beyond music to movies, where she starred in hits like "The Bodyguard" and "Waiting to Exhale." She had the perfect voice and the perfect image: a gorgeous singer who had sex appeal but was never overtly sexual, who maintained perfect poise. She influenced a generation of younger singers, from Christina Aguilera to Mariah Carey, who when she first came out sounded so much like Houston that many thought it was Houston. But by the end of her career, Houston became a stunning cautionary tale of the toll of drug use. Her album sales plummeted and the hits stopped coming; her once serene image was shattered by a wild demeanor and bizarre public appearances. She confessed to abusing cocaine, marijuana and pills, and her once pristine voice became raspy and hoarse, unable to hit the high notes as she had during her prime. "The biggest devil is me. I'm either my best friend or my worst enemy," Houston told ABC's Diane Sawyer in an infamous 2002 interview with then- husband Brown by her side. It was a tragic fall for a superstar who was one of the top-selling artists in pop music history, with more than 55 million records sold in the United States alone. She seemed to be born into greatness. She was the daughter of gospel singer Cissy Houston, the cousin of 1960s pop diva Dionne Warwick and the goddaughter of Aretha Franklin. Houston first started singing in the church as a child. In her teens, she sang backup for Chaka Khan, Jermaine Jackson and others, in addition to modeling. It was around that time when music mogul Clive Davis first heard Houston perform. "The time that I first saw her singing in her mother's act in a club ... it was such a stunning impact," Davis told "Good Morning America." "To hear this young girl breathe such fire into this song. I mean, it really sent the proverbial tingles up my spine," he added. Before long, the rest of the country would feel it, too. Houston made her album debut in 1985 with "Whitney Houston," which sold millions and spawned hit after hit. "Saving All My Love for You" brought her her first Grammy, for best female pop vocal. "How Will I Know," ''You Give Good Love" and "The Greatest Love of All" also became hit singles. Another multiplatinum album, "Whitney," came out in 1987 and included hits like "Where Do Broken Hearts Go" and "I Wanna Dance With Somebody." The New York Times wrote that Houston "possesses one of her generation's most powerful gospel-trained voices, but she eschews many of the churchier mannerisms of her forerunners. She uses ornamental gospel phrasing only sparingly, and instead of projecting an earthy, tearful vulnerability, communicates cool self-assurance and strength, building pop ballads to majestic, sustained peaks of intensity." Her decision not to follow the more soulful inflections of singers like Franklin drew criticism by some who saw her as playing down her black roots to go pop and reach white audiences. The criticism would become a constant refrain through much of her career. She was even booed during the "Soul Train Awards" in 1989. "Sometimes it gets down to that, you know?" she told Katie Couric in 1996. "You're not black enough for them. I don't know. You're not R&B enough. You're very pop. The white audience has taken you away from them." Some saw her 1992 marriage to former New Edition member and soul crooner Bobby Brown as an attempt to refute those critics. It seemed to be an odd union; she was seen as pop's pure princess while he had a bad-boy image, and already had children of his own. (The couple had a daughter, Bobbi Kristina, in 1993.) Over the years, he would be arrested several times, on charges ranging from DUI to failure to pay child support. But Houston said their true personalities were not as far apart as people may have believed. "When you love, you love. I mean, do you stop loving somebody because you have different images? You know, Bobby and I basically come from the same place," she told Rolling Stone in 1993. "You see somebody, and you deal with their image, that's their image. It's part of them, it's not the whole picture. I am not always in a sequined gown. I am nobody's angel. I can get down and dirty. I can get raunchy." It would take several years, however, for the public to see that side of Houston. Her moving 1991 rendition of "The Star Spangled Banner" at the Super Bowl, amid the first Gulf War, set a new standard and once again reaffirmed her as America's sweetheart. In 1992, she became a star in the acting world with "The Bodyguard." Despite mixed reviews, the story of a singer (Houston) guarded by a former Secret Service agent (Kevin Costner) was an international success. It also gave her perhaps her most memorable hit: a searing, stunning rendition of Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You," which sat atop the charts for weeks. It was Grammy's record of the year and best female pop vocal, and the "Bodyguard" soundtrack was named album of the year. She returned to the big screen in 1995-96 with "Waiting to Exhale" and "The Preacher's Wife." Both spawned soundtrack albums, and another hit studio album, "My Love Is Your Love," in 1998, brought her a Grammy for best female R&B vocal for the cut "It's Not Right But It's Okay." But during these career and personal highs, Houston was using drugs. In an interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2010, she said by the time "The Preacher's Wife" was released, "(doing drugs) was an everyday thing. ... I would do my work, but after I did my work, for a whole year or two, it was every day. ... I wasn't happy by that point in time. I was losing myself." In the interview, Houston blamed her rocky marriage to Brown, which included a charge of domestic abuse against Brown in 1993. They divorced in 2007. Houston would go to rehab twice before she would declare herself drug-free to Winfrey in 2010. But in the interim, there were missed concert dates, a stop at an airport due to drugs, and public meltdowns. She was so startlingly thin during a 2001 Michael Jackson tribute concert that rumors spread she had died the next day. Her crude behavior and jittery appearance on Brown's reality show, "Being Bobby Brown," was an example of her sad decline. Her Sawyer interview, where she declared "crack is whack," was often parodied. She dropped out of the spotlight for a few years. Houston staged what seemed to be a successful comeback with the 2009 album "I Look To You." The album debuted on the top of the charts, and would eventually go platinum. Things soon fell apart. A concert to promote the album on "Good Morning America" went awry as Houston's voice sounded ragged and off-key. She blamed an interview with Winfrey for straining her voice. A world tour launched overseas, however, only confirmed suspicions that Houston had lost her treasured gift, as she failed to hit notes and left many fans unimpressed; some walked out. Canceled concert dates raised speculation that she may have been abusing drugs, but she denied those claims and said she was in great shape, blaming illness for cancellations.

WONDERFUL: PROSTITUTES IN LUSAKA OFFER FREE SEX FOLLOWING WIN OVER GHANA

PROSTITUTES in Lusaka’s Kanyama, John Laing, Chawama and Kalingalinga compounds offered themselves free of charge to every Jim and Jack as part of their celebration after Zambia beat Ghana 1-0. A check by The Independent Post (TIP) at nightclubs such as Kanyama’s Kanchembele and Chine Chikayeba found long queues of men waiting to have sex with a limited number of prostitutes. A single prostitute served nearly 11 men and there were more than 200 men wanting to celebrate Zambia’s first qualification to the Africa Cup final since 1994 in style. The situation was the same at John Laing’s Corogo night Club which is situated just opposite John Laing Basic School. But at Corogo, a man in his mid twenties was beaten up after he took long to attain orgasm when his turn to have sex with the prostitute came. “Yes, we beat him up because he took too long to ejaculate. We were too many of us on line and the guy kept on wasting time on top of the prostitute,” said an eye-witness, identified only as James. And in Chawama as well as Kalingalinga, TIP correspondents say only a handful of prostitutes were made to serve tens of Chipolopolo fans. But another soccer fan who claims not to have taken part in the ‘mass servicing’ of prostitutes said the development was unfortunate. Mike Tembo suspected that many young people might have contracted the HIV virus and other STIs during the ‘sexual celebration. ’ “I think when Zambia plays the final, free condoms need to be provided so that we can protect our young men. Many of them had sex with the prostitutes without condoms,” Tembo said. Zambia’s win over Ghana sent the whole Zambia into wild celebration. Soccer fans celebrated the win in all manner of ways. Fortunately, no deaths were recorded at the time this story was published. Coach Herve Renard said that he was happy that Zambia has told the world through the beating of the Black stars that Ghana are still toddlers. “We’ve won and I am very happy. At least we’ve shown the world that Ghana are toddlers,” Renard said. He added that Zambia will now be aiming at beating Ivory Coast on February 12. Ghana paid the penalty as Asamoah Gyan saw a penalty saved before Zambia scored with their only attack of the second half in a 1-0 win in their African Cup of Nations semi-final in a sodden Bata. Zambia substitute Emmanuel Mayuka completed a smash-and-grab victory for the Chipolopolo boys as he tucked the ball beyond Ghana keeper Adam Kwarasey from 22 yards on 79 minutes to complete a miserable day for the 2010 World Cup quarter- finalists. Zambia will return to the Gabon capital of Libreville for the final, 19 years after the fallen heroes were tragically wiped out when a plane crashed heading towards Dakar for a World Cup qualifier with Senegal in 1993. Under coach Herve Renard, Zambia is certainly physically strong enough to provide a stern test for Ivory Coast. Share

Deo Mtasiwa il hali Waziri Haji Hadji Mponda na Naibu Waziri Dkt. Lucy Nkya watasubiri maamuzi ya Rais Kikwete. Nyongeza ya "Call Allowances" inaanza mara moja mwezi huu. Watalipwa ifuatavyo: Specialist MDs (25,000/=), Regular MDs (20,000/=); AMO, COs (15,000) Registered Nurses (10,000/=) na baada ya bajeti kutakuwa na mabadiliko ambapo mafao haya yataangaliwa upya. Kimeundwa Kikosi Kazi vha watu 9 chenye Daktari mmoja kwa ajili ya majadiliano na kutoa maamuzi juu ya mshahara pamoja na "allowances" zote (Nyumba, House allowances, Hardship allowances nk). Kikosi kazi kina muda wa wiki mbili kufanya kazi hii. Usafiri: Madaktari watapewa mikopo ya magari Green Card kwa kila Daktari na familia yake inaanza mara moja. Kwa hivyo, Madaktari wameazimia kuahirisha mgomo na kurudi kazini ili kuwahudumia Watanzania. Madaktari watakutana tena rasmi kufanya tathmini ya maamuzi yote ya sasa na ya Kikosi Kazi hapo tarehe 3 Machi 2012. Waziri Mkuu aliruhusu mikutano ya Madaktari aliyoizuia awali kufanyika, na ndipo Madaktari walipopata fursa ya kuendelea kukutana na kujadiliana baada ya mkutano wao na Waziri Mkuu kumalizika.

The list is compiled by gathering income streams from three key areas: Matchday revenue, consisting of gate receipts and season tickets Broadcast revenue, including both international and domestic TV contracts Commercial revenue, notably from sponsorship and merchandising Staggeringly, the Top 20 earned a combined €4.4 billion in the period measured, a figure which represents one quarter of the entire revenue accumulated in the European football market. Without further ado, here is the list in full: 1st REAL MADRID Last year: 1st €479.5m (€438.6m) 9.3% Real Madrid dominate the Money League for a seventh consecutive year, as improved performance on the pitch combined with continued commercial growth sees the Primera Division leaders record a revenue increase of 9.6% on their 2009-10 total. The most startling statistic of all, however, is how Madrid have exponentially enhanced their income in the past five years; from 2007, their total revenue has risen by almost €200m, and the club are projected to be the first to break the €500m barrier in next year's edition. Further on-field successes will only solidify Los Blancos' standing as European football's true financial superpower. 2nd BARCELONA Last year: 2nd €450.7m (€398.1m) 13% Barcelona continue to trail their domestic rivals in terms of total revenue, but another trophy-laden campaign allowed the Catalan club to narrow the gap on Madrid, whilst simultaneously almost double their advantage over third-placed Manchester United, the revenue gap widening from €48.3m in 2009-10, to €83.7m in 2010-11. A revolutionary shirt sponsorship deal with the Qatar Foundation contributed to a significant rise in commercial income, and the ramifications of this arrangement will only truly impact Barca's revenue stream from next year's edition, meaning their position is set to strengthen further. 3rd MANCHESTER UTD Last year: 3rd €367m (€349.8m) 4.9% Sir Alex Ferguson's side recaptured their Premier League title in 2010-11, and coupled with their impressive run to the Champions League final, remain the club with the most impressive revenue figures outside Spain's leading duo. Commercially, partnerships with Aon Corporation and shirt manufacturers Nike continue to bear fruit, with a 27% gain in this particular area. However, the continued duopoly of TV rights from Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga, in addition to their business acumen in other areas, means that Manchester United lost ground on their rivals, reflected in their steady incremental growth across the last five years when compared to the advancements of the big two. 4th BAYERN MUNICH Last year: 4th €321.4m (€323m) 0.5% The Bavarian giants remain in fourth spot but in comparative terms enjoyed a disappointing 2010-11, and their failure to win the Bundesliga, alongside their premature Champions League exit at the Round of 16, proved to be key contributors to an overall revenue decrease. Bayern's enviable commercial presence, however, rose by 3% across the period, while matchday receipts increased by a healthy 8% due to a revised pricing policy. In short, a return to form both domestically and in European competition would be sufficient for the German powerhouse to return to positive growth in 2011-12. 5th ARSENAL Last year: 5th €251.1m (€274.1m) 8.4% In their home currency Arsenal recorded a minor increase in revenue in 2010-11, but exchange rate fluctuations have influenced the 8.4% reduction in earnings in Euros. A sixth consecutive season without silverware has left the Gunners trailing in terms of both matchday and broadcasting revenue, and, significantly, their long-term contract with Emirates means that only 20% of their total income is derived through commercial means. It is in this area where the London club must develop their strategy, while sustained Champions League football remains an absolute necessity in order to maintain their fifth spot. 6th CHELSEA Last year: 6th €249.8m (€255.9m) 2.4% Similarly to Arsenal, Chelsea reported a rise in revenue in pounds sterling in 2010-11, but overall a 2.4% decline when translated to euros. The Blues were also able to markedly close the gap to their city rivals from €16.9m in 2009-10 to a mere €1.3m this year. Despite a lack of trophies in 2010-11, Chelsea's broadcast revenue represents their key driver, with reaching the quarter-finals of the Champions League ensuring additional income from Uefa. From a commercial and matchday revenue perspective, both of these strands of the business plateaued during the period in question, but remained consistent enough to ensure the club remain in sixth position. 7th AC MILAN Last year: 7th €235.1m (€244m) 3.6% Leading the Italian clubs that populate the Money League, AC Milan remain in seventh spot from 2009-10, and enjoyed a return to form in Serie A, claiming the Scudetto after Inter's extended period of dominance. Their overall revenue is down on the previous year, and a worrying statistic concludes that 46% of the Rossoneri's total earnings is derived from broadcast revenue. Their matchday takings are second lowest in the top 10, although their commercial income was boosted by a lucrative deal with Emirates. However, if Milan fail to secure progression beyond the Champions League Round of 16, their reliance on TV money means they are unlikely to progress up the list next year. 8th INTER Last year: 9th €211.4m (€224.8m) 6% Inter are the first movers in the Money League from 2009-10, leapfrogging Liverpool into eighth position, despite exchange rate movements perpetuating a 6% drop in combined earnings. Like AC Milan, Inter's main revenue stream is accumulated from broadcast revenue, and indeed, 57% comes from this area - the second highest percentage (behind AS Roma) of any team in the top 20. As is a problem indicative of all Serie A teams, Inter must strategise to effectively utilise their brand in other areas if they are to remain competitive with the sides currently above them. 9th LIVERPOOL Last year: 8th €203.3m (€225.3m) 9% Liverpool are the only club in the top 10 not to have competed in the 2010-11 Champions League, their first season without the associated broadcast income from this competition since 2003-04, and as a result they slide into ninth position. The club were able to offset this shortfall, however, by securing one of the highest shirt sponsorship deals of any team in the top 20, worth up to €22m per season. Their Europa League run to the semi-finals limited the shortfall in broadcast revenue to just €12.4m down on 2009-10, but with no European football taking place at Anfield this season, the Reds will struggle to remain in the top 10 next year. 10th SCHALKE 04 Last year: 16th €202.4m (€139.8m) 45% The unquestionable surprise package of the 2010-11 Money League, Schalke achieved an astonishing 45% increase in revenue, thanks in no small part to a swashbuckling trip to the Champions League semi-finals. Their broadcast revenue more than doubled as a result, propelling them into the top 10, but their commercial income is also a huge success, accounting for 45% of their total earnings and is due largely to their multi-purpose use of their state-of-the-art Veltins Arena. However, their failure to secure Champions League football again means their rise is likely to be short-lived for now. 11th TOTTENHAM Last year: 12th €181m (€146.3m) 24% Tottenham climb back above Premier League rivals Manchester City, as reaching the quarter-finals of the Champions League provided a healthy increase across all revenue streams and translated into a 24% rise on the previous year. The area to benefit most from on-pitch performance proved to be the broadcasting arm of the club's income, which recorded 61% growth. The capacity of White Hart Lane, which is only the 10th largest in England alone, currently restricts matchday receipts, but the proposed redevelopment plans will prove to be a main economic driver going forward. 12th MANCHESTER CITY Last year: 11th €169.6m (€152.8m) 11% Tottenham's European exploits edged Manchester City down to 12th position, despite their own revenue increasing by 11% across the 2010-11 period. However, City remain a team very much on the rise in all aspects; their commercial revenue has tripled over the past two seasons, while entry to the 2011-12 Champions League will unquestionably increase their broadcasting income in next year's edition. This, in turn, will positively impact matchday revenue, ensuring that City will be a genuine challenger to the top 10 positions not only next year, but in the seasons that follow. 13th JUVENTUS Last year: 10th €153.9m (€205m) 24% The impact of successful progression through European competition is highlighted by Juventus' freefall down the Money League in recent years. The loss of income is palpable based on Champions League versus Europa League participation, with the club receiving just €1.8m from Uefa in 2010-11, in stark contrast to the €22.8m accumulated the season prior. Serie A's redesigned, collective broadcasting agreement has also negatively impacted Juve's earnings, and with no Uefa participation to generate income in the current season, their position is only likely to worsen in the 2011-12 Money League. Moving into their own stadium will certainly lead to significant increases in matchday revenue going forward, though, putting them ahead of all domestic rivals in this area. 14th MARSEILLE Last year: 15th €150.4m (€141.1m) 6.6% Marseille, for the first time in seven years, are the highest-earning club in French football, usurping rivals Lyon in the process, and operating at a 6.6% increase in 2010-11. Reaching the Round of 16 of the Champions League is most responsible for this upturn, as commercial and matchday revenues remain relatively constant. OM's famous stadium, the Stade Velodrome, is undergoing redevelopment to increase capacity ahead of Euro 2016, and while building work will reduce attendances in the short term, the additional gate receipts will prove to be a profitable avenue of income in the future. 15th AS ROMA Last year: 14th €143.5m (€122.7m) 17% Roma leap three positions to 15th, with their Champions League exploits helping to increase broadcasting revenue by an impressive €25.5m, and ensure a general rise in earnings of 17%. Despite this, however, the club reported a disappointing decrease in matchday takings, as average attendances fell by 15% across the course of the season. Roma are looking to remedy this in the near future by moving to a new custom-built arena, but with no Champions League income to fall back on in 2011-12, the capital club may suffer a temporary setback in their total income. 16th BORUSSIA DORTMUND Last year: N/A €138.5m (€105.2m) 32% From being on the brink of bankruptcy just over a decade ago, Borussia Dortmund make a successful return to the Money League after collecting the Bundesliga title, which heralded record earnings. Like other German sides, Dortmund's commercial revenue is their most beneficial prong of their business plan, with 57% of income generation borne from this area - the highest of any side in the top 20. Their continuously shrewd sponsorship arrangements, combined with the joint-highest average attendance and incoming Champions League riches, could see a substantial rise in next year's list for the German champions. 17th LYON Last year: 14th €132.8m (€146.1m) 9.1% Lyon drop three places and not only have they lost ground on rivals Marseille, but the emergence of Paris Saint-Germain as a significant power in French football could threaten OL's position at the top of the domestic game. Once more, a failure to match the Champions League achievements of the season before sees the club's broadcasting revenue significantly fall. However like many others, Lyon have made provisions for a new stadium to maximise their matchday takings and commercial income that can be generated from a multi-purpose arena.  18th HAMBURG Last year: 13th €128.8m (€146.2m) 12%  As you would expect, no income from European football in 2010-11 unsurprisingly sees Hamburg slide down the Money League. Commercial revenue remains a key driver, as a lack of continental action led to nine fewer home matches and a €7.5m decrease in matchday revenue as a result. However, as on-pitch success and the associated broadcasting benefits that are offered become ever-more crucial in the Money League, it seems that Hamburg will need to shake off their current difficulties in order to remain a part of the top 20 in seasons to come. 19th VALENCIA Last year: N/A €116.8m (€99.3m) 18% Valencia's financial problems across the past five years have been played out in the public domain, as a half-empty stadium and continued sale of talented players highlights their precarious plight. However, consistent qualification for the Champions League has ensured that, in terms of revenue generation at least, Los Che are moving in the right direction. Their position in the Money League, but one so far behind Spain's big two, only serves to further emphasise the disparity of earnings that currently plights the distribution of TV cash in La Liga. 20th NAPOLI Last year: N/A €114.9m (€91.6m) 25% Napoli make their debut in the Money League after enjoying their highest Serie A placing for over 20 years. Unlike established challengers such as AC Milan and Inter, the Partenopei benefited from the revised TV revenue arrangement in Italy, creating a huge 47% (18.6m) rise in broadcasting income. A new commercial agreement for 2011-12, plus Champions League qualification beyond the group stages, should ensure that Napoli not only remain in the top 20, but could rise up the list. pause Goal.com goal_intl Follow Us Editorial goal_intl BREAKING NEWS: Favourite for England manager's job Harry Redknapp insists his focus is on Tott... bit.ly/yYBczo #soccer #football 7 minutes ago · reply · retweet · favorite goal_intl The top 20 clubs in football's money league goal.com/en/ news/1717/e… 10 minutes ago · reply · retweet · favorite goal_intl Real Madrid & Barcelona lead football rich list as Schalke make surprise top-10 entrance goal.com/en/ news/755/eu… 40 minutes ago · reply · retweet · favorite goal_intl Gareth Bale is 7/1 to retain the PFA Player of the Year award while David Silva leads the way:... bit.ly/xDhzCf #soccer #football about 1 hour ago · reply · retweet · favorite goal_intl Good news for Richards, bad news for Bent - what Capello's departure could mean for England's ... bit.ly/ws4dju #soccer #football 2 hours ago · reply · retweet · favorite News Editorials Clubs Europe Asia Africa Americas Champions League Europa League 2012 Afcon Ballon d'Or Transfers LIVE!

WACHORA PICHA, KUANDIKA MATUSI NA VERSE ZA BONGO FLEVA KATIKA KARATASI ZA MAJIBU KIDATO CHA NNE 2011

Baraza la Mtihani la Taifa (NECTA) limetangaza matokeo ya mtihani wa kidato cha nne uliofanyika mwaka jana yanaoonesha kuwa asilimia 53.59 ya wanafunzi 426,314 waliofanya mtihani huo wamefaulu. Hata hivyo, wakati asilimia hiyo ambayo ni sawa na wanafunzi 180,216 wakifurahia matokeo hayo, wenzao 3,301 wamefutiwa matokeo kutokana na udanganyifu ikiwamo mfanano usio wa kawaida wa majibu. Akitangaza matokeo hayo jijini Dar es Salaam jana, Katibu Mtendaji wa NECTA, Dkt. Joyce Ndalichako alisema, NECTA imefuta matokeo ya watahiniwa 3,03 waliobainika kufanya udanganyifu kati yao, watahiniwa wa shule ni 3,301 na wawili wakiwa wa maarifa (QT). Watahiniwa 182 walikamatwa na wasimamizi wakiwa na makaratasi (notes) sita walikamatwa na simu, watatu walikuwa wakifanyiwa mtihani na watu wengine, wanne walisajiliwa kufanya mtihani kwa majina ya watu wengine. Watahiniwa 2,896 karatasi zao za majibu zilikuwa na mfanano usio wa kawaida, 155 karatasi zao za majibu zilikuwa na miandiko zaidi ya mmoja, 14 kubadilishana karatasi katika chumba cha mtihani, 18 kukamatwa na karatasi za majibu zaidi ya moja, 25 wakiwa na mfanano usio wa kawaida wa majibu, kuwa na vikaratasi ama kubadilishana vikaratasi. “Mtu mmoja unakuta mitihani yake ya majibu ina miandiko zaidi ya 10, na jeshi la polisi ndilo lililothibitisha kuwa miandiko ya wanafunzi hawa ilikuwa inatofautiana. Baraza hilo limefuta matokeo ya watahiniwa nane walioandika matusi ya nguoni kwenye karatasi zao za majibu. “Kitendo cha kuandika matusi kwenye karatasi za majibu kinaonyesha utovu wa nidhamu, hivyo pamoja na kuwafutia matokeo ufuatiliaji zaidi unaendelea ili kuona hatua za kuwachukulia,” alisema Dkt. Ndalichako. Pia alitoa onyo kali kwa vituo vilivyohusika na udanganyifu huo, huku akisema kwa vilivyobaika vitaandikiwa barua ya kutaka vijieleze kwa nini visifutiwe matokeo. Akasema baadhi ya watahiniwa waliandika nyimbo za kizazi kipya (Bongo fleva) kwenye karatasi zao za majibu huku wengine wakichora michoro isiyo eleweka na wachezaji wa mpira. “Mwingine aliandika bongo fleva, ngoja niwasomee, wasahihishaji msinisamehe..., ,"ACHA UTANI NA GIRLI WANGU.... NAKUJA HOME NAKUKUTA...... NIKIFELI MTIHANI NAENDELEA NA FANI YA MUZIKI" Dkt. Ndalichako alisoma moja ya karatasi za majibu za watahiniwa hao huku akiruka baadhi ya maeneo akisema ameandika matusi yasiyoweza kusomeka. (gazeti la Mwananchi

FABIO CAPELLO RESIGNED TO COACH ENGLAND

The Football Association have confirmed that Fabio Capello has resigned as England manager. The Italian tendered his resignation following a meeting with FA chairman David Bernstein and general secretary Alex Horne at Wembley. The meeting focused on the FA board's decision to strip John Terry of the England captaincy and Capello's subsequent comments to the Italian media. Bernstein told the FA's official website: "I would like to stress that during today's meeting and throughout his time as England Manager, Fabio has conducted himself in an extremely professional manner. "We have accepted Fabio's resignation, agreeing this is the right decision. We would like to thank Fabio for his work with the England team and wish him every success in the future." Capello was appointed England manager in 2008 as the successor to Steve McLaren and oversaw a relatively successful four years. England lost just two competitive matches under the 65-year-old although he was widely criticised for the dismal 2010 World Cup campaign, which ended in the last 16 with a 4-1 defeat to Germany.

UTAFITI: NUSU YA WANAUME NCHINI NI WAGUMBA

UTAFITI mpya umebaini kuwa nusu ya wanaume nchini ni wagumba ukipingana madai ya wengi kuwa tatizo hilo linawaathiri zaidi wanawake.Kwa mujibu wa utafiti huo, uliofanywa na Chuo Kikuu cha Tiba Muhimbili kati ya mwaka 2009 na Septemba 2010 unaonyesha, asilimia 47.05 ya wanaume wanaokwenda kupima afya zao za uzazi, hawana uwezo wa kutungisha mimba.Malengo ya utafiti huo uliosimamiwa na Dk Henry Mwakyoma, yalikuwa ni kubaini ni kwa kiasi gani wanaume huweza kuathiriwa katika via vyao vya uzazi na hatimaye kushindwa kutungisha mimba. Utafiti huo ulionyesha kati ya wanaume 221 waliopimwa, asilimia 30.03 walikuwa na mbegu dhaifu na asilimia 17.02 walikuwa hawana kabisa mbegu zenye uwezo wa kutungisha mimba, zaidi ya maji tu. Akizungumza katika mahojiano maalumu na Mwananchi, Dk Mwakyoma alisema, ugumba kwa wanaume limekuwa tatizo sugu katika miaka ya hivi karibuni. “Nasisitiza kuwa, pengine mwanaume aliwahi kupata watoto hapo awali, lakini sasa hivi hapati, bado atakuwa mgumba,” alisema Dk Mwakyoma.Alisema hapo awali ilikuwa vigumu kupata idadi kamili ya wanaume wenye ugumba kwa sababu walikuwa hawajitokezi kupima.“Angalau sasa hivi wanakuja na tunawapima, ingawa ni kazi ngumu kuwapa majibu yao,” alisema Mwakyoma. Sababu za ugumba Mwakyoma alitaja sababu za ugumba kwa wanaume kuwa ni uambukizo katika tezi inayozalisha manii. Alitaja sababu nyingine kuwa ni kemikali zinazoingia katika miili yetu, mionzi na wakati mwingine ajali inapoathiri tezi hiyo. Dk Mwakyoma aliongeza kuwa, wanaoathirika zaidi ni wanaofanya kazi migodini, jeshini au wanaozungukwa na kemikali kwa muda mrefu.“Sababu nyingine ni joto kuzidi katika sehemu za siri za mwanaume, kubeba laptop, unene kupita kiasi na mazingira,” alisema. Dk Mwakyoma akifafanua jinsi kitengo chake kinavyopima manii ili kujua kama zina matatizo au zipo salama, alisema, " rangi ya mbegu pamoja na umbile huangaliwa ili kutambua ubora wake. Hata kwa kuziangalia tu, mbegu zenye rangi aidha kijivu au nyeupe si salama.” Kwa upande wake, Dk Innocent Mosha, ambaye ni daktari wa uchunguzi wa magonjwa katika Hospitali ya Muhimbili alisema, wamefanikiwa kupata takwimu hizo kutokana na wanandoa wengi kufika hospitalini hapo kwa ajili ya kujua sababu ya kutokuwa na watoto katika ndoa yao."Mara nyingi matokeo huonyesha tatizo liko kwa mwanaume. Lakini kuna tabu ya kuwaeleza ukweli, wengi hawataki kukubali," alisema Dk Mosha. Aliongeza, “Kesi kama hizo huleta migogoro ya kifamilia, kwani huenda mwanamke huyo amekwishamzalia mumewe watoto ambao kimantiki si wa kwake,” alisema Dk Mosha. Dk Mosha alisema, kuna ugumba wa aina mbili; wa kuzawa nao na ugumba unaopatikana ukubwani. “Wapo wanaozaliwa na ugumba, yaani mbegu zao aidha ni dhaifu au hawana kabisa mbegu tangu kuzaliwa kwao,” alisema Dk Mosha. Shirika la Afya duniani (WHO) linathibitisha kuwa, ujazo wa manii anaopaswa kuwa nao mwanaume ili aweze kutungisha mimba ni milligram moja na nusu hadi nne na nusu na kuongeza, “Ujazo wa manii ukipungua au ukizidi basi mbegu hizo zina matatizo” alisema Dk Mwakyoma. Naye Dk Joshua Noreh wa kituo cha upandikizaji cha jijini Nairobi (IVF centre) alisema, tatizo la ugumba alianza kuliona tangu mwaka 2006 baada ya kupokea wanandoa wengi kutoka Afrika Mashariki ikiwemo Tanzania waliofika kutafuta huduma ya upandikizaji wa mbegu ili kupata watoto. Utafiti uliofanywa na WHO mwaka 2009 duniani, ulibainisha kuwa, mwanaume mmoja kati ya saba wanaofika kupima afya ya uzazi hugundulika na matatizo ya ugumba.

TAARIFA MAALUM KUHUSU MGOMO WA MADAKTARI TOKA JUKWAA LA WAHARIRI TANZANIA(TEF)

UTANGULIZI
Mgomo wa Madaktari ambao umedumu kwa takriban wiki mbili nchini sasa ni dhahiri kwamba umelitikisa Taifa na kuathiri huduma za tiba katika hosipitali kadhaa nchini. Mgomo huu ulianza taratibu na kuendelea kukua kutokana na mvutano, pia vita ya maneno baina ya Serikali na Madaktari. HALI ILIVYO SASA Kutokana na taarifa zinazofikishwa katika vyumba vya habari, ni dhahiri kwamba hali ni mbaya sana katika baadhi ya hosipitali nchini hasa Hosipitali ya Taifa Muhimbili (MNH) ambapo mgomo huu umesababisha vifo vya watu ambao huenda wangepona kama wangepata huduma. Wagonjwa mahututi wanaofikishwa MNH kwa ajili ya huduma za rufaa hawapokelew,maiti wanaofikishwa kwa ajili ya kuhifadhiwa chumba cha kuhifadhi maiti (mortuary), hawapewi hifadhi na badala yake wanarejeshwa walikotoka. Hata katika hosipitali ambazo madaktari wameripotiwa kurejea kazini, huduma zinazotolewa ni hafifu hii ikimaanisha kwamba mgomo bado unaendelea hata kama si kwa madaktari kukutana kwenye kumbi kama ilivyokuwa mwanzo. Madaktari kutoka Jeshi la Wananchi wa Tanzania (JWTZ) ambao wamepelekwa katika hosipitali za Serikali kuokoa jahazi, hawatoshelezi lakini katika baadhi ya maeneo wamepata upinzani kutoka kwa wauguzi wa hosipitali husika. MAPENDEKEZO Kutokana na hali ilivyo sasa, Wahariri wa vyombo mbalimbali vya habari katika kikao cha Jukwaa la Wahariri Tanzania (TEF) kilichokutana leo Jumanne 31 Januari 2012, wamesema “Inatosha” kwa na kwamba hali isiachwe ikaendelea na kupendekeza yafuatayo: Pande husika katika mgogoro huu ambazo ni Serikali na Madaktari wakubali kukaa katika meza moja ya mazungumzo kutafuta mwafaka wa suala hili, wenye lengo la kupata suluhu ya tatizo lililopo, huku kila upande ukiangalia madhara kwa binadamu yanayotokana na mgogoro huu. Majadiliano yalenge kutatua matatizo ya madaktari kwa upande mmoja, lakini pia yazingatie uwezo wa Serikali kwa upande mwingine. Nia iwe ni kuwawezesha madaktari kadri uwezo wa Serikali unavyoruhusu lakini pia kuwaokoa wagonjwa ambao wanakabiliwa na hatari kubwa kutokana na kukosa tiba. Madaktari wakubali kurejea kazini haraka iwezekanavyo ili kuokoa maisha ya watu ambao wanapoteza maisha kutokana na kukosa huduma za tiba, wakati wagonjwa wakiwa si sehemu ya mgogoro uliopo. Serikali ifute amri zake zote dhidi ya madaktari waliokuwa kwenye mgomo (hasa ile ya kuwafukuza wasiofika kazini jana Jumatatu Januari 30, 2012) ili kuwezesha mazungumzo kufanyika baina ya pande hizo mbili. Baada ya makubaliano kufikiwa, iwepo kalenda ya utekelezaji wa makubaliano husika ili kuepusha kutokea kwa mgomo mwingine ambao unaweza kuleta athari kubwa zaidi kwa wananchi. Baada ya maafikiano kuwapo, usiwepo mpango wowote wa wazi au wa kificho wa kuwaadhibu kwa namna yoyote ile viongozi wa madaktari waliogoma kwani tunaamini kwamba madai yao yalikuwa halali. Serikali kuanzia sasa ifanye mapitio ya mishahara, maslahi na stahili nyingine za wafanyakazi wote katika sekta ya Umma na kuyaboresha, ili kuepuka kufanya hivyo kwa shinikizo la migomo inayofanywa na watumishi hao kwa makundi. HITIMISHO Wakati tukiamini kwamba busara itatumika kuliondoa Taifa letu katika mtanziko uliopo, tuseme wazi kuwa sisi Wahariri tunaamini yafuatayo: Kwanza tunatambua umuhimu wa kada ya udaktari kwa umma, hivyo kutambua haki yao ya kupata mahitaji muhimu. Ikiwa madaktari hawapati mahitaji muhimu, basi ni dhahiri kwamba hawawezi kutoa huduma kwa wagonjwa ipasavyo. Pili tunatambua pia ufinyu wa rasilimali za nchi ambazo pengine ndicho kikwazo kwa Serikali kushindwa kuwalipa watumishi wake vizuri au kadri ya madai yao, licha ya kwamba wawakilishi kama wabunge wamepewa nyongeza ya posho za vikao kwa viwango ambavyo vimezua manung'uniko kutoka kwa umma. Lakini tofauti zozote zilizopo, ziwe za kiutendaji au kiutawala kamwe haziwezi kuondolewa bila pande husika kukubali kukaa na kuzijadili ili kupata mwafaka kwa faida ya Watanzani wote. Ni matumaini yetu kwamba busara zitatumika ili kuwaokoa Watanzania. Neville Meena KATIBU WA JUKWAA LA WAHARIRI (TEF

KAULI NA MSIMAMO WA MBUNGE jOHN MNYIKA KUHUSU MGOMO WA MADAKTARI

Leo Mbunge wa Mbozi Geofrey Zambi alitoa hoja ya bunge kujadili suala la mgomo wa madaktari kwa dharura kufuatia taarifa kuwa madaktari bingwa nao wameingia kwenye mgomo. Spika Anna Makinda alizuia hoja hiyo kwa maelezo kuwa suala hilo bado linashughulikiwa na bunge kupitia kamati yake ya huduma za jamii. Baada ya maelezo ya Spika niliomba muongozo hata hivyo sikupatiwa nafasi. Kimsingi nilitaka kuelieza bunge kwamba maelekezo yaliyotolewa na Naibu Spika Job Ndugai yanahitaji kuongezewa maagizo ya ziada na Bunge ili wadau wote wakawa na imani kwamba suala hili linashughulikia kwa dharura na kwa mwelekeo stahiki hali ambayo itashawishi mgomo kuweza kusitishwa. Hadidu rejea na ratiba ya kamati inapaswa iwe bayana hivyo kuna umuhimu wa uongozi wa bunge kutoa tamko lenye maelezo ya ziada kwa kuwa kimsingi madaktari walishapoteza imani na namna ambavyo serikali kupitia kwa Wizara ya Afya na Ustawi wa Jamii na Ofisi ya Waziri Mkuu imekuwa ikishughulikia masuala yao. Aidha, imani hiyo ilipoteza zaidi baada ya uamuzi wa Waziri wa Afya na Ustawi wa jamii kutoa maelezo yasiyokuwa ya kweli bungeni kuhusu madai ya madaktari na hali ya mgogoro mzima. Bunge na uongozi wa bunge unapaswa kuwa makini katika mazingira ya sasa ili kuepusha uwezekano wa madaktari na wananchi kwa ujumla kupunguza imani pia na namna ambavyo mgogoro huu unashughulikiwa. Nilitaka kuomba muongozo wa Spika ili agizo litolewe kwamba Kamati husika ya Bunge itawasilisha taarifa yake ya awali kwenye mkutano wa bunge unaoendelea; hii itajenga imani kwa madaktari na wananchi kwamba bunge lina dhamira ya kushughulikia kwa haraka suala hili. Katika mazingira ya sasa ya ratiba kutokuwa bayana ya lini kamati inatarajia kukamilisha kazi yake, madaktari na wananchi wanaweza kuwa na mashaka kwamba taarifa ya kamati italetwa bungeni katika mikutano ijayo ya bunge kuanzia mkutano wa saba mwezi Aprili. Aidha, kwa kuwa imeonyesha bayana kwamba madaktari hawana imani na Waziri wa Afya na Ustawi wa Jamii, Katibu Mkuu wa Wizara husika na Mganga Mkuu wa Serikali ni muhimu Kamati ya Bunge ikalitafakari suala hili na kama bado ni kikwazo; inashauri serikali mapema ili watendaji husika waweze kuondolewa ili majadiliano yaendelee katika msingi wa maelewano. Pia; katika kauli yake bungeni serikali pamoja na kukataa sehemu kubwa ya madai ya msingi ya madaktari haikutoa kauli yenyewe ni nini iko tayari kutoa hivyo kuweka msingi wa majadiliano. Ikiwa tayari serikali imeweka mezani misingi ya majadiliano ni muhimu Spika wa Bunge airuhusu kamati husika itoe mrejesho ama kwa madaktari kupitia kwa wawakilishi wao, au kwa bunge ili kujenga imani kwamba bunge tayari limeanza kuchukua hatua za haraka ili madaktari na umma kuwa na imani kuwa ufumbuzi wa mgogoro unaelekea kupatikana mapema. Naungana na wote ambao pamoja na kutaka bunge kuharakisha usuluhishi wa mgogoro baina ya madaktari na serikali na kuisimamia serikali kutatua madai ya msingi ya madaktari; nawaomba pia madaktari na watumishi wengine wa afya katika utumishi wa umma wahakikishe wanaendelea kuokoa na kulinda maisha ya wananchi wasio na hatia. John Mnyika (Mb) 07/02/2012 Post a Comment 1 comments: Anonymous said... Tunashukuru kwa mrejesho huu Mh Mbunge. Kwe kweli ina huzunisha kuona jinsi wananchi wanapata tabu katika mgogoro huu wakati wao ni nyasi tuu kwenye uwanja wa mapambano kati ya Madaktari na Serikali. Ni vigumu mtu kuupata uchungu huu wanaoupata wenzetu hadi pale utakapompeleka mwanao, mkeo, baba, mama, kaka, dada nk akiwa hoi ukitegemea kupatiwa matibabu na kukosa hivyo mgonjwa wako akakufia mikononi just like that! Ningetegemea kuona matamko mbalimbali toka vyama vya siasa, ngo na taasisi mbalimbali za kiraia juu ya suala hili lakini nao wamekaa kimya kama serikali yenyewe. Hivi ni raia wangapi wanatakiwa kupoteza maisha ili hatua za dhati zichukuliwe? Jamani mnafanya usanii hata kwenye uhai wa watu? Natumaini mahalipengine watu wangeshajaa mitaani. Inasikitisha.

MADAKTARI BINGWA MUHIMBILI WAGOMA RASMI

WAKATI Kamati ya Kudumu ya Bunge ya Huduma za Jamii ikianza kazi ya kuzungumza na madaktari walio kwenye mgomo, madaktari bingwa katika Hospitali ya Taifa ya Muhimbili (MNH) na walio katika Taasisi ya Mifupa (MOI) wamegoma. Mgomo huo wa jana ulihusisha vitengo vyote huku wagonjwa waliokuwa wamelazwa hospitalini hapo wakipewa taarifa za kuondoka katika wodi walimolazwa. Azimio la mgomo huo lilifikiwa katika kikao cha dharura kilichoitishwa na jopo la madaktari bingwa wakiongozwa na Dkt. James Rwehabura ambaye ni daktari bingwa wa Kitengo cha Uchunguzi wa Magonjwa ya Binadamu. Habari za ndani kutoka katika kikao cha dharura cha wanataaluma hao, zilisema uamuzi huo ulifikiwa kwenye kikao cha madaktari hao kilichoanza mapema asubuhi jana na kumalizika saa 6:00 mchana. “Kwa pamoja tumekubaliana kuweka vifaa chini, hii ni kutokana na ukweli kuwa hali ya utoaji huduma katika hospitali hii ni mbaya huku taarifa za Serikali zikiwa siyo za kweli,” alidokeza mmoja wa madaktari bingwa. Daktari huyo aliyekataa kutaja jina lake, alisema, “Tumekubaliana kugoma hadi hapo Serikali itakapotoa majibu ya madai yote yaliyowasilishwa na jumuiya ya madaktari inayoongozwa na Dkt Stephen Ulimboka kwa Serikali.” Jumuiya hiyo iliwasilisha madai mbalimbali likiwamo la kuitaka Serikali kupeleka vifaa na dawa katika hospitali za Serikali ili madaktari hao waweze kutoa huduma bora kwa jamii. Pia, madaktari hao walitaka kusitisha safari za vigogo kwenda kutibiwa nje kwa magonjwa yanayotibika ndani kwa kile walichodai, hali hiyo inachangia wao kudharauliwa na pia kuzorotesha jitihada za Serikali katika uboreshaji wa mazingira ya kazi kwa madaktari hao. Kwa nyakati tofauti, madaktari hao walibainisha sababu ya mgomo wao na kudai kuwa, kikubwa ni mazingira magumu ya kazi. Daktari mwingine ambaye hakupenda jina lake kuandikwa gazetini alisema, licha ya mishahara na posho ndogo, lakini mazingira ya kufanyia kazi yamekuwa magumu mno. “Tumeshaamua , ‘tools down’ hospitali haina kitu, hata ‘mask’ hakuna badala yake tunavaa gozi tunapofanya upasuaji, acha hiyo, hata nyuzi za kushonea wakati wa upasuaji hakuna,” alisema daktari huyo. Daktari huyo alisema, hawawezi kufanya kazi katika mazingira hayo kwa sababu yatawasababisha kuwa na utendaji mbovu na baadaye taifa kuwalalamikia. Alisema hapa nchini madaktari bingwa ni wachache, kwa hiyo kitendo cha wao kufanya kazi peke yao bila wasaidizi, yaani madaktari wa mafunzo na wale wanaomaliza, wanaelemewa na mzigo wa kazi. Dkt. Henry Mwakyoma, Mhadhiri Mkuu wa Chuo cha Udaktari Muhimbili, (MUHAS) ambaye hakuwapo katika kikao hicho cha dharura alidai kuwa, yeye kama mhadhiri hajagoma, lakini alikiri kuwapo kwa mazingira magumu ya kazi. “Mpaka sasa hatujalipwa mishahara ya mwezi uliopita, halafu kazi yetu ndiyo kama hii tunatakiwa tufanye utafiti, unategemea tutafanya kazi kwa umakini kweli? Tutawafundisha madaktari kwa umakini?” alihoji Dkt. Mwakyoma. Mwakyoma alisema, Serikali haiwezi kudai kuwa haina fedha za kutosha wakati imetumia mamilioni ya shilingi katika sherehe za miaka 50 ya Uhuru na uchaguzi wa Igunga. Alisema ni vyema Serikali ikajipanga na kuamua kushughulikia masuala ya madaktari kwa hekima kwani kukaa kimya bila kutoa suluhu ni sawa na kufanya ushindani usio na maana. Hata hivyo, Ofisa Habari Mwandamizi wa MNH Aminael Aligaesha alisema jana jambo hilo lilikuwa likishughulikiwa kwani vipo vikao vinavyoendelea. Wagonjwa watimuliwa wodini Wodi mbalimbali hospitalini hapo zilitawaliwa na vilio kutokana na wagonjwa na ndugu za wagonjwa kupewa taarifa za kuondoka katika eneo hilo mara moja, kutokana na mgomo huo wa madaktari. Mmoja wa wagonjwa waliokuwa wamelazwa katika wodi ya Sewahaji, Sadick Dimoso (35) mkazi wa Morogoro alisema hali sasa MNH ni mbaya. “Tumeambiwa tuondoke wodini bila ya kuruhusiwa na daktari, hii ni hatari tena wanasema tuondoke tukakae huku hadi wiki mbili ndio turudi kuangalia,” alisema Amina Ramadhani, aliyekuwa akisubiri kufanyiwa upasuaji wa jicho. Alisema hatua ya kutakiwa kuondoka hospitalini hapo imekatisha matarajio yao ya kuendelea kuwa hai na kuitaka Serikali kufanyia kazi madai ya madaktari. Wakati kundi la watu wengine wakililia huduma hosptalini hapo, baadhi ya ndugu za wagonjwa waliingia katika mgogoro na walinzi wa wodi hiyo ya Sewahaji wakitaka waandishi wa habari kuingia wodini. Vikao vya Kamati Wakati hayo yakijiri, vikao baina ya madaktari na Kamati ya Kudumu ya Huduma za Bunge, viliendelea jana katika ofisi ndogo za Bunge huku taarifa zake zikiwa ni siri. via Mwananchi

MASHABIKI 74 WAFARIKI KATIKA FUJO MISRI

Mashabiki 74 wamepoteza maisha yao jana mjini Port Said nchini Misri katika mchezo uliozikutanisha timu za Al Masry dhidi ya timu inayoongoza ligi kuu nchini humo ya Al Ahly ambapo timu hiyo ndogo ya Al Masry ilifanikiwa kuifunga timu ya Al Ahly kwa jumla ya magoli 3 - 1.
Baada ya filimbi ya mwisho mashabiki wa timu mwenyeji ya Al Masry walivamia uwanja na kuanza kuwakimbiza wachezaji wa Al Ahly na kuwapiga ambapo katika fujo hizo wachezaji kadhaa wa Al Ahly walijeruhiwa na Polisi walifanikiwa kuingilia kati na kuwaokoa.
