DPP amvaa Dk Hoseah, ataka mdahalo majalada kesi za kifisadiMkurugenzi mkuu wa Taasisi ya Kuzuia na Kupambana na Rushwa (Takukuru), Dk Edward Hoseah ambaye jana alidai kuwa DPP amekalia kesi 60 tuhuma za rushwaJames MagaiKWANZA ilikuwa ni ndani ya chama tawala CCM, lakini malumbano baina ya vigogo sasa yamehamia serikalini baada ya Mkurugenzi wa Mashtaka (DPP), Eliezer Feleshi kujibu mashambulizi ya mkurugenzi mkuu wa Taasisi ya Kuzuia na Kupambana na Rushwa (Takukuru), Dk Edward Hoseah, akitaka uitishwe mdahalo baina ya wawili hao ili ajibu tuhuma dhidi yake.Pendekezo hilo la Feleshi limekuja wakati malumbano baina ya viongozi wa CCM hayajapoa baada ya kutuhumiana kwa ufisadi na wivu wa nafasi mbalimbali zilizotokana na uchaguzi mkuu wa mwaka 2005.Dk Hoseah, ambaye amekuwa akirusha makombora kwa taasisi tofauti, juzi alitoa tuhuma nzito alipokaririwa na gazeti moja akisema kuwa ameshawasilisha kesi zaidi ya 60 za tuhuma za rushwa kwa DPP na akashangaa sababu za mteule huyo mwenzake wa rais kukalia mafaili hayo badala ya kufungua kesi dhidi ya watuhumiwa.Lakini jana Feleshi alikuwa mbogo na akasema kuwa ili ukweli uwekwe bayana kuna haja ya kuandaa mdahalo baina yake na Hoseah.DPP Feleshi, akizungumza na gazeti dada la Mwananchi la The Citizen baada ya hafla ya mafunzo ya kamati ya kitaalamu ya mawakili wa serikali iliyofanyika Kunduchi jijini Dar es Salaam, alisema njia pekee ya kuweka sawa rekodi ni kuwepo kwa mdahalo huo wa wazi."Ninataka mdahalo na Hoseah katika masuala haya yanayoendelea hata kama utakuwa wa simu tena iwekwe ‘loud speaker (kipaza sauti)’ ili tujadili masuala haya na kumaliza kiu ya wananchi," aliweka msimamo DD Feleshi."Kama mtu anasema kuna majalada 60 ofisini kwangu, then (kisha) tunamuuliza yamefika lini? Yeye pia atajibu, kwa kufanya hivyo tutatoa mwanga mzuri kwa wananchi ambao ofisi hizi zipo kwa ajili yao tu."DPP Feleshi alisema anataka mdahalo huo ufanyike mbele ya waandishi wa habari ili jamii ijue masuala mbalimbali yanayoelekezwa ofisini kwake.Hoseah pia aliwahi kuirushia kombora mahakama akisema inaendesha taratibu kesi za ufisadi, hivyo kupunguza kasi ya taasisi hiyo kushughulikia watuhumiwa wa rushwa.Miongoni mwa kesi ambazo zilifunguliwa kwa wingi hivi karibuni na Takukuru ni pamoja na kesi zaidi ya 20 zinazohusu wizi kwenye Akaunti ya Malipo ya Madeni ya Nje (EPA), matumizi mabaya ya madaraka na uzembe na tuhuma za kula njama na kuisababishia hasara serikali.Hata hivyo, mwenendo wa kesi nyingi umekuwa wa kasi ndogo kutokana na upande wa mashtaka kutokamilisha ushahidi.Akizungumzia madai hayo ya Hoseah, Feleshi aliweka bayana kwamba hayajui majalada hayo na anachojua ni kwamba ofisini kwake kuna majalada ya kesi ambayo yanaingia na kutoka kila siku na anayashughulikia kwa mujibu wa sheria.Feleshi, ambaye aliwahi kurejesha Takukuru baadhi ya majalada kutokana na kuonekana udhaifu katika ushahidi, alimtaka Dk Hoseah kutoa ufafanuzi kwa kueleza ni majalada gani yanayokaliwa na ofisi yake na yamefika lini.Alifafanua kwamba ofisi yake haiwezi kukalia majalada kwa kuwa inafanya kazi kwa mujibu wa sheria na kwa maslahi ya umma na kusisitiza hayajui majalada hayo 60 anayodai Dk Hoseah kwamba yamekaliwa ofisini hapo."Hayo mafaili (majalada) ya vigogo mimi siyajui. Ninachojua ni kwamba tuna majalada yanaingia kila siku ya Watanzania wanaotuhumiwa. Tunapokea na kuyafanyia kazi... na hatubagui kuwa haya ni ya PCCB (Takukuru) , TRA( Mamlaka ya Mapato) au ya Polisi. Katiba ya nchi inatoa haki sawa kwa wote kufikishwa mbele ya sheria ili kupata haki," aliongeza DPP."Tunafanya kazi kwa maslahi ya umma na tunaendesha shughuli zetu kisheria wala si kwa kuzingatia jambo lolote kwa kuwa hatuna maslahi yoyote kumshtaki mtu bila kuwa na ushahidi wala hatuna maslahi yoyote kumwachia mtu kama kuna ushahidi. Ndiyo maana nasema hakuna kukalia majalada."Feleshi, ambaye ana mamlaka ya kufunga au kufungua mashtaka kwa watuhumiwa, alisema katika hali hiyo ni vigumu kusema kuna majalada yana muda mrefu kwani hajui hayo yanayosemwa yaliingia lini ofisini kwake."Labda kama angekuwepo mwenyewe (Dk. Hoseah) angeeleza zaidi hayo majalada anayodai tumeyakalia. Ni vema mkamuuliza hilo," alisema.

Makamba awatukana wanaoshauri Kikwete asigombee 2010Rais Kikwete kongamano la Nyerere limemweka katika lawama za kutokuwa na maamuzi na kuwa asipendekezwe kugombea awamu ya pili.Na Leon BahatiKATIBU mkuu wa CCM, Yusuf Makamba, ambaye katika miezi ya karibuni amekuwa akihaha kutoa ufafanuzi, kukanusha au kujibu tuhuma mbalimbali dhidi ya chama hicho tawala, jana alikuwa na kazi nyingine ya kumtetea Jakaya Kikwete baada ya waziri katika serikali ya awamu ya tatu kushauri asiteuliwe kugombea urais 2010 iwapo atashindwa kufanya maamuzi magumu dhidi ya mafisadi.Safari hii, Makamba alitumia maneno makali kumjibu waziri huyo, Matheo Qares akisema watu wenye fikra kwamba CCM inaweza kumtosa mwenyekiti wake kwenye mbio za urais wakati wa uchaguzi mkuu wa mwakani, "ni wehu".Qares, ambaye aliwahi kushika wadhifa nyeti wa Waziri wa Menejimenti ya Utumishi wa Umma, alitoa rai hiyo juzi kwenye kongamano la kumuenzi muasisi wa taifa la Tanzania aliposema kuwa CCM haina budi kutafuta mwanachama mwingine wa kugombea nafasi ya urais mwaka 2010 iwapo Kikwete atashindwa kufanya maamuzi magumu dhidi ya mafisadi, ambao alisema hawakijui chama na wengine uraia wao una utata.Lakini jana, Makamba alisema watu wenye fikra hizo ni wehu kwa kuwa uteuzi wa wagombea ndani ya CCM ni mchakato usiotoa ruhusa kwa mawazo binafsi ya watu."Mtu mwenye akili nzuri hawezi kusema kwamba Rais Kikwete ameshindwa kutekeleza wajibu wake. Anayefikiria hivyo, ni mwehu," alisema Makamba alipotakiwa kutoa maoni yake kuhusu kauli hizo.Alisema ni vyema watu hao wakafahamu kuwa mgombea urais wa CCM anateuliwa kwa mujibu wa taratibu za chama kupitia vikao mbalimbali hivyo, wazo binafsi halina nafasi.Alipoulizwa kuhusu shutuma zinazoelekezwa kwa Rais Kikwete, Makamba alisema asingependa kujibu hoja zilizotolewa na mjumbe mmoja mmoja kwenye kongamano hilo.Lakini akaeleza kwamba yupo tayari kutoa maoni yake binafsi baada ya Taasisi ya Mwalimu Nyerere kuwasilisha kwake mapendekezo waliyofikia kwenye kongamano hilo."Mimi mwenyewe sikuwepo kwenye kongamano hilo. Wala sijui mapendekezo yao. Siwezi nikatolea maoni hoja za mtu mmoja mmoja alizotoa kwenye Kongamano hilo. Nitakapopata mapendekezo ya jumla ya taasisi hiyo, nitakawa katika nafasi nzuri ya kutoa maoni yangu."Katika kongamano hilo, Rais Kikwete amekuwa akilaumiwa kwa kutochukua hatua dhidi ya watu wanaotuhumiwa kwa ufisadi, wengi wao wakielezwa kuwa ni wafanyabiashara ambao wanatuhumiwa kukiteka chama kwa kutumia nguvu zao za pesa.Wakati fulani Joseph Butiku, mwenyekiti wa Taasisi ya Mwalimu Nyerere ambayo iliandaa kongamano hilo, alisema Rais Kikwete amezungukwa na mafisadi ambao wanaitafuna nchi.Akizungumza kwenye kongamano hilo juzi, Qares alisema rais hana budi kufumba macho na kuwashughulikia hao watuhumiwa ambao wanadai Kikwete hakujuana nao barabarani na kama atashindwa basi ashauriwe kuwa miaka yake mitano inamtosha.Kabla ya Qares, Musa Nkangaa, ambaye aliwahi kuwa waziri kwenye serikali ya awamu ya pili, aliituhumu CCM kuwa imepoteza hadhi na kujikuta ikikumbatia matajiri wachafu.Kwa mujibu wa Nkangaa, CCM imekuwa si chama cha wakulima na wafanyakazi tena, bali kimebaki kuwa chama cha matajiri."Ndiyo maana imekuwa ikiweweseka kuwashughulikia watuhumiwa wa Richmond na Kagoda," alisema akimaanisha kashfa ya utoaji zabuni ya ufuaji umeme wa dharura kwa Richmond Development Company LLC na tuhuma za wizi wa mabilioni ya fedha kutoka BoT.CHANZO: Mwananchi

"It is simply not true. It is an outright malicious lie being concocted with the evil intention of tarnishing the good name of Tanzania and our government," Tanzanian Foreign Minister Bernard Membe said in a statement late Saturday.
The document was researched on the ground in Congo and the region over six months by a five-strong stream of experts hired by UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon.

Barack Obama said today that a US travel ban against people infected with the HIV virus will be overturned early next year.
The order will be completed on Monday, Obama said, finishing a process begun during the administration of George Bush.
The United States is one of about a dozen countries that bar entry to travellers based on their HIV status. The ban has been in place for more than 20 years. Obama said it will be lifted just after the new year, after a waiting period of about 60 days.
"If we want to be a global leader in combating HIV/Aids, we need to act like it," Obama said at the White House before signing a bill to extend the Ryan White HIV/Aids programme. Begun in 1990, the program provides medical care, medication and support services to about half a million Americans with HIV or Aids, mostly low-income people...READ MORE

NI KATIKA MINAJILI HIYO NAONA UMUHIMU WA KUHOJI BUSARA ZILIZOMO KATIKA HABARI IFUATAYO
Rais Kikwete Aota kujenga safu ya vijana katika uongozi wa kitaifa
Na Mwandishi Wetu
RAIS Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete ameahidi kuwa kama akijaliwa kupata kipindi cha pili cha kuliongoza taifa la Tanzania, atafanya jitihada kubwa kuubadilisha uongozi wa Tanzania kuwa uongozi wa vijana.Rais Kikwete akizungumza juzi, mjini Dar es Salaam na vijana kutoka nchi mbali mbali za Afrika wanaoshiriki katika Mpango wa Kulea Uongozi wa Afrika wa African Leadership Initiative, Rais Kikwete alisema kuwa anauthamini Mpango huo.Alisema kuwa vijana ndiyo Tanzania ya kesho, na kama Tanzania haikuwekeza vya kutosha katika vijana na maendeleo yao, basi itakuwa haiwekezi katika hali yake ya baadaye.Aliwaambia vijana hao ambao wanashiriki katika Mpango huo unaodhaminiwa na Askofu Mkuu (mstaafu) wa Kanisa la Anglikan Desmond Tutu wa Afrika Kusini kuwa kwa kadri miaka inavyokwenda ni lazima rika la wazee lipishe lile la vijana....INAENDELEACHANZO: Mwananchi
