"NIKIFA SIHITAJI KAMATI YOYOTE YA KUENDESHA MSIBA WANGU .....KAMA WALIKULA ZA NGWEA, WATASHINDWA NINI KWANGU?".. NAY WA MITEGO

 MSANII wa muziki wa kizazi kipya nchini Ney wa Mitego, ameweka wazi kuwa ikitokea amefariki dunia hatohitaji kamati kwa ajili ya kuendesha mipango ya msiba wake, kwa kile anachodai kuwa kamati hizo zipo kwa ajili ya kuvuna pesa.

Hayo aliweka wazi baada kupokea ujumbe mfupi kwenye simu yake wenye vitisho uliotokana na mashairi alioimba kwenye single yake mpya ya 'Salaam zao' .

Ujumbe huo wa vitisho ambao umepokelewa na msanii huyo umekuja mara baada ya msanii huyo kuachia single yake hiyo ambapo moja ya mashahiri ni juu ya hela za rambirambi zilizopatikana katika msiba wa msanii Ngwear pamoja na Kanumba kushindwa kuwafikia walengwa.

Akizungumza na jarida la Maisha, mara baada ya kutuma ujumbe alioupokea wa vitisho kwenye ukurasa wake wa 'Instagram', Ney wa Mitego aliweka wazi kuwa amepokea ujumbe wa vitisho mara baada ya kuachia nyimbo hiyo.

Alisema kuwa amepokea ujumbe mbalimbali ambazo zipo zinazowataja wahusika moja kwa moja wale waliohusika kula rambirambi, huku wengine wakimtumia ujumbe wa kumtisha kwa kile alichokiimba katika nyimbo hiyo.

"Mimi hata ikitokea nakufa leo sihitaji mtu yeyote wa  kuweka  kamati ya mazishi yangu kwani najua kitakachotokea siyo mazishi bali ni kula hela na rambirambi hizo kushindwa kutimiza malengo kama yalivyokusudiwa" alisema Ney wa Mitego.

Aliongezea kuwa hawezi kuacha kuimba ukweli hata kama ataendelea kupokea vitisho.

Go hang, Mugabe tells rivals

Zimbabwe President Robert Mugabe Monday told those challenging his July 31 election victory that they could “go hang.”

The 89 year-old ruler, making his first public speech, since he defeated long time foe, Mr Morgan Tsvangirai said his win was a victory against the West and their puppets.

“Those who were hurt by defeat can go hang if they so wish,” said President Mugabe in a speech delivered during commemorations to honour the country’s liberation war heroes.

“Even if they die, dogs will not eat their flesh,” he added. “Never will we go back on our victory.”

Last Friday, Mr Tsvangirai who is also the outgoing Prime Minister in a coalition government with his rival filed a court petition seeking to have the results of the controversial elections set aside.

He accused President Mugabe’s Zanu PF party of paying an Israeli company $10 million to manipulate the vote in its favour.

Mr Tsvangirai also listed a number of irregularities, which he said compromised the election.

The legal wrangle would delay Mr Mugabe’s inauguration by at least 14 days.

However, the Zanu PF leader in power since 1980, appeared unmoved by the growing criticism over the way the elections were conducted.

“We are delivering democracy on a platter,” he said. “We say take it or leave it, but the people have delivered democracy.”

Mr Tsvangirai and members of his Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) did not attend the celebrations.

MDC said it was staying away from the annual event to protest against the “stolen” elections.

Election observer mission endorsed the elections as free and fair but neighbouring Botswana has called on the Southern African Development Community has called on the Southern African Development Community (SADC) to audit the polls saying its observers recorded a number of anomalies.

SADC leaders would meet in Malawi this weekend but it is unlikely that Zimbabwe would be on the agenda.

Gunmen kill bride on Nairobi street four days to her wedding

Gunmen on Monday shot dead a woman and seriously injured her brother-in-law as they shopped in Nairobi for her wedding which had been set for Saturday.

Three gunmen are alleged to have trailed the two to Maru Italian Shoes along Kimathi Street in the city.

At around 4pm, the gunmen entered the shop, ordered the two to raise their hands then shot them.

The assailants then escaped towards Tom Mboya Street.

The two victims are said to have been shopping for the wedding that was scheduled for Saturday at Mathare SDA Church.

The bridegroom, who had accompanied the two, escaped unhurt. He told the police that nothing was stolen from them.

Central OCPD Patrick Oduma confirmed that the injured man was rushed to hospital but the woman died on the spot.

“The intention was not to steal and we are investigating a case of murder,” said Mr Oduma.

Acid Attack Victim Kirstie Trup Out Of Hospital

 Acid Attack Victim Kirstie
Trup Out Of Hospital

One of two young British women who had acid thrown at them in Zanzibar has been dsicharged from hospital after treatment for her injuries.

The Chelsea and Westminster Hospital said Kirstie Trup left on Sunday night.
Katie Gee - whose burns were described as "horrendous" by her mother - is still being treated.
A statement from the hospital said: "We can confirm that Kirstie Trup was discharged from the hospital last night. Katie Gee remains in hospital. No details on either of the patients’ treatment will be released at this time.
"This approach is in line with the families’ wishes and we continue to ask that the media respect their privacy at this time."
The two 18-year-olds had been working as volunteer teachers when they were attacked by two men on a motorbike, the first such attack on foreigners on the Indian Ocean island.
Medical student Olivia Moore told Channel 4 News: "They stopped for the girls and the two men then looked at each other, nodded and then the man on the back of the bike smiled and threw acid on the girls.
"From then on it's just chaotic. There was no incident that preceded the actual attack.
"Everyone was shocked. Nobody can think of a motivation or anything that precipitated this."
Witnesses have spoken of their desperate attempts to wash the acid off the two girls before they were rushed to hospital.
The girls' families released a photograph of one of the victims' injuries, showing dark burns seared across her jaw, neck and chest.
On Saturday, Katie took to Twitter to thank well-wishers, saying: "Thank you for all your support x".
Zanzibar's Tourism Minister Said Ali Mbarouk has offered a reward of 10 million Tanzanian shillings (£2,958) for information leading to the arrest of the suspects, describing the attack as "a shame on the people of Zanzibar".
Five people detained over the attacks were questioned over the weekend.
A radical Muslim preacher wanted in connection with the attack escaped on Sunday after being shot by officers in the shoulder with a tear gas canister.
However, there was confusion about whether Sheikh Issa Ponda Issa had later been detained after handing himself in to a hospital for treatment.

DANGURO LA UCHI LAFUMULIWA BUGURUNI DAR..... GHARAMA YA CHUMBA NI 1200/= ....KUMLIPA MALAYA NI 5000 TU.

 JUMBA linalodaiwa kutumika kuendesha shughuli za ukahaba limebainika kuwapo katika eneo la Buguruni, jijini Dar es Salaam.

Uchunguzi uliofanywa na Tanzania Daima, umebaini kuwapo kwa jumba ambalo linatumika kama nyumba ya kulala wageni, ambako idadi kubwa ya makahaba hujazana na kuendesha biashara ya kuuza miili yao bila wasiwasi. 


Wasichana wanaofanya biashara hizo hutoza kiasi cha sh 5,000 kama huduma ya ngono na chumba kwa matumizi ya muda mfupi.

Biashara hiyo ambayo imeleta usumbufu mkubwa kwa wakazi wengi wanaopakana na nyumba hiyo, imekuwa

ikifanikiwa kutokana na kuwapo kwa baadhi ya askari polisi wanaodaiwa kuwalinda wasichana hao pamoja na mmiliki wa nyumba hiyo.

Nyumba hiyo inavyo vyumba vingi vinavyotozwa kiasi sha sh 1,200 kwa chumba pamoja na kondomu. Kadhalika wasichana wenye umri wa miaka 15, ni miongoni mwa wanaofanya biashara hiyo.

Mjumbe wa serikali ya mtaa wa eneo hilo, Amiri Banza, alikiri kuwapo kwa biashara hiyo, ingawa alisema wamejaribu sana kuzuia hali hiyo bila mafanikio: 

“Tumechoka na hii kadhia, tumeripoti kwa viongozi wa Kata hadi polisi lakini hakuna hatua yoyote iliyochukuliwa. Kama wakija polisi wanawakamata, halafu wanawaachia,” alisema.

Kamanda wa Polisi Mkoa wa kipolisi wa Ilala, Marietha Minangi alipoulizwa juu ya kuwapo kwa jumba hilo alisema hajui chochote.: “Mimi sijapata taarifa hizo na ndiyo kwanza ninakusikia wewe,” alisema.

Alipoulizwa kuhusu polisi kufika kwenye jumba hilo na kuchukua rushwa na kuondoka alisema: “Sina ushahidi, kama wapo polisi wanafanya hivyo ni kosa,” alisema Minangi na kuongeza kuwa polisi wanafanya doria maeneo hayo na mara kadhaa wamewakamata watu wanaojihusisha na vitendo hivyo na kuwafikisha mahakamani.

Museveni commissions Karuma power dam works today

A power house in Kabalega Hydropower Station. Bunyoro will have a second dam when Karuma is completed. 

Kampala- President Museveni is today expected to preside over the ground breaking ceremony for the construction of of Karuma Hydropower Plant.

In June, the government awarded the contract of constructing the 600MW Karuma dam to Sinohydro Corporation, a Chinese firm. The dam is expected to cost about $2.2 billion (about Shs6 trillion).

A transmission line from Karuma to a location where the power will be integrated into the national power grid will also be constructed.

However, today’s ceremony comes at a time when residents of Kiryandongo District have petitioned the government to operationalise the construction of a satellite city at Karuma falls.

City benefits
The residents said the project will attract investors and facilities that will scale up urbanisation.

Kiryandongo County MP Sam Otada said his constituents are wondering why the city has never been operationalised although it was proposed in 2009.

He said the government promised to set up a city on River Kafu banks.
However, the Ministry of Lands spokesperson, Mr Dennis Obbo, at the weekend said: “The dam and the city are complimentary and not conflicting. The planning process is underway.”
Mr Obbo said on Saturday by telephone.

He said the ministry will zone, develop structural and detailed plans for the proposed city. He however did not state when the city will become operational.

Mr Otada said whereas the project has excited locals, who hope to tap the business and employment opportunities that will come with the project, they want assurances that the project will not destroy the environment.

“We welcome (construction of the) dam but we wouldn’t want Karuma falls to be destroyed. We want the falls to be preserved because they are a tourist attraction in our district” he said.

The Energy state minister Mr Simon D’ujang said there will be enough water for the dam and the falls.

“An environmental impact assessment has been conducted and the designs indicate that the power will be generated underground without affecting the falls”D’ujang said.
The Bunyoro affairs state minister Mr Ernest Kiiza said the dam will catalyze development of the Midwestern region and Uganda as a whole.

“The dam will provide additional power required for industrial growth,” Kiiza said.
Besides providing jobs to locals, Mr Kiiza said the dam will provide an opportunity to farmers in Bunyoro to add value to their agricultural products when agro processing industries emerge
