Askari Magereza amuua mwenzake kinyama

ASKARI wa magereza wa jela la Taveta Boniface Muriithi amemuua kwa kumpiga risasi mwenzake kwa jina Livingstone Sowene.

 

Tukio hilo limetokea leo saa mbili asubuhi ya Jumanne lilitokea nje ya gereza hilo wakati Muriithi alipoamua kummiminia mwenzake risasi tano kwenye kifua bila kumuuliza chochote.

Wawili hao hata hivyo wamekuwa na uhasama ambao unadaiwa kuzidi baada yao kupangwa wafanye kazi katika shifti moja.

Mkuu wa gereza hilo Bw Soud Ramadhan amethibitisha kisa hicho na kusema kuwa wamemnasa mwenzao huyo na kumkabidhi kwa polisi ili afunguliwe mashtaka.

“Muriithi alimkuta Sowene akisubiri kupeleka wafungwa kazini alipompiga risasi tano kifuani, alikufa akiwa ameketi papo hapo. Ni jambo la kushangaza kwa hata hawakuongea ndiposa tujue kama palikuwepo uhasama wowote,” akasema askari huyo. 

Duru hata hivyo zinasema mshukiwa alijawa na ghadhabu baada ya kupashwa habari kwamba askari huyo alikuwa na uhusiano wa kimapenzi na mumewe.

Jamii na rafiki wa marehemu wamelalamika kumpoteza mmoja wao kwa njia katili ya kuangamizwa na mfanyakazi mwenzake.

Babake marehemu Bw Joseph Sowene amesema kuwa mwanaye aliamkia kumpeleka bintiye shuleni na mkewe shuleni Makloriti anakofunza. 

“Tumetatizika pakubwa kwa kuwa aliyeuawa ni mzazi mchanga aliyejali sana jamii yake. Hatujui kilichosababisha hili na tunataka polisi watuambie kilichotokea,” akalalama mzazi.

Mkuu wa polisi wa Taita Taveta Richard Bitonga alithibitisha kisa hicho na kusema uchunguzi unaendelea kubaini kiini hasa cha mauaji hayo.

Mshukiwa anazuiliwa katika kituo cha polisi cha Taveta akisubiri kufikishwa mahakamani karibuni.

DRUG FREE TANZANIA IS POSSIBLE

I write this letter on behalf of the Drug Free Tanzania Movement (Tanzanian Prisoners in Hong Kong jails). Today I write to you inspired by Dr. Harrison Mwakyembe “One of the men of goodwill in our current government”, with his renowned dedication and strong determination to dismantle drug trafficking networks in our nation. I also write on behalf of all men of goodwill to whom beauty is truth and truth and who eyes the beauty of genuine Drug Free Tanzania is more precious than silver or gold or diamond. My fellow compatriots, drug trafficking is still a fact in Tanzania. We must keep on building the momentum, we must keep up our campaign until next national election in 2015. We must keep revealing all those who involves in this illicit trade (from civilian, businessmen/women, law enforcement personnel and politicians). We must keep on confronting drug trafficking in its hidden and subtle forms.

Brethren, I am mindful that democracy as defined by Abraham Lincoln “is the government of the people, for the people and by the people”, and I am also mindful that if democracy is to live in our nation, politicians and their associates who involves in this Evil trade must be wiped and out of the Tanzania Political Map. If democracy is to live in our nation, drug trade must die, because democracy is people’s power and we (people) are not unmindful that drug trade is the universal Evil and anyone who associates himself with this Evil is an agent of the Devil. And since the ripple effect of drugs to our community as well as the international community is incalculable, we must eliminate all devil agents and their associates and their family members in our political map.

Every attempt to end our campaign by intimidation, by encouraging fellow inmates to inform, by using death threats toward us and our loved ones further cemented our campaign and brought sympathy for our cause from men and women of goodwill all over the nation.

The great appeal for the nation appears to lie in the fact that we (Tanzanian inmates in HK jails – “The Victims of the illicit trade”) have decided to break our silences and pray that The Almighty God shall give us strength to remain committed to this cause though we may face death.

We dared to dream of a better day in the midst of our sufferings and the nightmare that surrounded us. We have unequivocally declared our hatred for this most colossal of all Evils and we have publicly name and shame our ex-paymasters “the Drug Barons” most of them top brass businessmen and women, politicians, their associates and even law enforcement personnel. We have condemned all crooked politicians regardless of their political parties since we are not politically affiliated with any party.

When we started our campaign most of our brethren they told us we wouldn’t get here. They told us we cannot stop even a single Tanzanian courier coming into Hong Kong, Macau and the Mainland China. But it is now week twenty six (26) not a single Tanzanian courier has been arrested for drug trafficking here in Hong Kong Airport. (What a record? It was hardly to pass a week without several arrests).

And there were those who said that we would get here only over their dead bodies. All the nation knows that we are here and we aren’t going to let nobody turn us around.

So I write you today with the conviction that the illicit trade is on its death bed in Tanzania and the only thing uncertain about is how costly the drug barons and their political backers will make the funeral.

My dear fellow compatriots. Listen! The battle is in our hands. The battle is in our hands in Dar es Salaam, Dodoma and all over the United Republic of Tanzania. So let us be more than ever committed to this cause for better Tanzania. Let us march on the ballot boxes until all bad corrupted and drug related leaders disappear from the political arena. Let us march on the ballot boxes until those politician and their associates who has been barred from entering the United States for drug trafficking allegations and money laundering tremble away in silence.

Let us march on the ballot boxes, until we send to our Municipal councils and the House of parliament councilors and MP’s men and women who will not fear to do justice and walk humbly with their God.

Brethren, there are no broad highways to lead us easily and inevitably to quick solutions. We must keep going. We must be extremely vigilant with the drug enforcers and we must keep on spreading the news (about the dangers of trafficking drugs into HK, Macau and the Mainland China) to our fellow compatriots and we must keep on naming and shaming the Drug barons and their associates. And we shall not let anybody turn us around until we have a drug trafficking free society.

Your fellow compatriot languishing in Hong Kong jail.

Wenger amponda Arjen Robben kwa udanganyifu

Arjen Robben akiwa amenguka ndani ya eneo la penati la Arsenal mbele ya Laurent Koscielny

MENEJA wa Arsenal, Arsene Wenger amemponda winga nyota wa Bayern Munich, Arjen Robben kwa madai ya udanganyifu wa kujirusha ili kushawishi marefa kuipa penati timu yake.
Mfaransa huyo alisema kuwa Robben licha ya kuwa bonge la mchezaji anayemkubali, lakini pia amemsifia kuwa ni hodari wa kujirusha baada ya jana kuhusika na tukio la kujirusha langoni mwa Arsenal ili kushawishi penati kama alivyofanya kwenye mechi ya awali mjini London, japo penati hiyo ilikoswa.
Katika tukio hilo la awali, Mholanzi huyo alisababisha kipa wa Arsenal Wojciech Szczesny kutolewa nje ya dimba kwa kadi nyekundu kwa kile kilichoonekana kumchezea rafu mbaya Robben.
Jana winga huyo alirejea tena na kuipa timu yake penati dakika za lala salama ambayo ilipotezwa na Thomas Muller na kuinusuru Arsenal kuchezea kicha pili mfululizo kwa Bavarians hao ambao hata hivyo wamesonga mbele.
"Siwezi kupinga, Robben ni bonge la mchezaji, ila ni mjanja wa kulazimisha mambo kwa kupenda kwake kujirusha mbele ya mabeki ili aonekane kachezewa vibaya, haivutii," alisema Wenger baada ya mechi ya jana dhidi ya Bayern Munich, ambapo winga huyo alionekana kama kachezewa rafu na Laurent Koscielny.
Wenger alisema kama marefa wangekuwa wakimpa kadi ya njano, hadhani kama angerudia mchezo wake huo ambao alidai unapoteza mvuto wa soka kwani ni udanganyifu unaoziumiza timu nyingine wakati mwingine.

Manny Pacquiao nouma amchakaza Hatton

Pacquiao (kushoto) akimtandika mpinzani wake

MOJA ya pambano kali la kusisimua kabisa lilifanyika usiku wa kuamkia Jumapili ya Mei 3, 2009 huko Marekani kwenye ukumbi wa Las Vegas kati ya bondia Manny Pacquiao 'The PacMan' na Ricky Hatton maarufu kama Hitman.
Pacquiao alianza pambano hilo kwa kasi akishambulia ngumi lakini kwa tahadhari kubwa dhidi ya Hatton, ambaye si bondia wa kumtabiria, masabiki walikuwa wakipiga kelele kwa kushangailia wakati wote.
Kadiri randi ilivyokuwa ikisonga mbele ndivyo Pacquiao alivyokuwa akishambulia kwa kasi na kuonyesha ubora wa hali ya juu, alkuwa akipiga ngumi za kudonoa yaani 'jab' kali na kwa hesabu za hali ya juu na kufanikiwa kupenyeza ngumi nyingi kwa 'Hitman' akitumia jab na ngumi mkunjo za kulia yaani 'right hooks'.

Katika raundi hiyo ya kwanza Pacquiao alimkamata Hatton mara tatu kwa right hok zake kali zilizotua barabara katika kichwa chake na 'kumpotzea' kabisa Hatton katika raundi hiyo ambapo alikuwa akijitahidi kukwepa bila mafankio makubwa.

Ukingoni mwa raundi hiyo Hatton naye 'akazinduka' na kurusha makombora kadhaa kwa Pacquiao na kumfanya alalie kamba, Hatton mzaliwa wa Manchester akambana Pacquio na kumshambulia kwa right hook na left hook ambazo hata hivyo nyingi ziliishia katika mikono ya Pacquiao.
Hatton akaendelea kumbana Pacquaio kweny kamba lakini mpinzani wake huyo akawa anatumia ngumi ndefu za kati aipiga tumbo na kifua na moja moja akitumbukiza katika uso wa Hatton na ngumi zote zilimwingia Hitman.

Ndipo ghafla alipojinasua kwenye kamba na kupiga ngumi mkunjo kali ya kulia yaani 'right hook' na Hitman akadondoka chini kama mzigo wa kuni katika raundi hiyo ya kwanza.

Umati ukalipuka kwa shangwe na hasa mashabiki wa Pacquiao, Hatton akajizoa chini na mwamuzi akamuhesabia hadi 8, akapanguza glavu zake na kusema yuko fit kuendele anapambano zikiwa zimesalia sekunde 46 raundi ya kwanza kumalizika.

Mwamuzi aliporuhusu tu pambano, Pacquaio hakukawia akamfuata kwa kasi Hatton na kumsukumia 'right hooks', na jabs za nguvu na ngumi nyoofu ya kushoto au 'straight lefts'.

Hatton kwa uzoefu wake akajaribu kujikinga lakini hakuweza kukinga ngumi zote kwani ngumi 5 zilimkamta barabara na kumfanya aone' double double' na ndipo Pacquio akakaza musuli wa mkono wa kushoto na kumtandika Hitman, ngumi kali iliyomwelemea na kujikuta akidondoka tena chini kwa mara ya pili katika raundi ya kwanza.

Ilikuwa ni bahati kwake wakati anakwenda chini zlikuwa zimesalia sekunde 7 na hivyo alivyoanza kuhesabiwa raundi ikawa imemalizika na ikawa ni dhahiri Hatton ameokolewa na kengele, mabondia wote wakaenda kwenye kona zao kufuta pumzi.

Raundi ya pili ilipoanza, Hatton alianza kwa kurusha jab zake nyingi na kutumia zaidi 'left hook' ambazo kadhaa zilimpata Pacquiao ambaye wakati fulani pamona na kupigwa ngumi za nguvu kichwani na kuonekana kulewa, lakini alikuwa na nguvu kiasi cha kushindwa kudondoka.

Pacquiao akawa anatumia ngumi za mnyooko yaani 'straight punch' , kisha akapiga jab ya kushoto akapiga tena ngumi ya kulia na kwa kasi ya ajabu, akaachia ngumi kali ya kushoto iliyompata Hatton na kumpeleka sakafuni.
Ngumi hiyo ilipigwa katikati ya ulingo wakati raundi ya pili inaelekea ukingoni, Hatton akajitutumua kujizoa pale chini kwa nia ya kutaka kuendelea kupigana kama alivyofanya kwenye raundi ya kwanza.

Akamudu kusimama kwa mbinde, mwamuzi akaruhusu pambano kuendelea baada ya kuwa amemhesabia Hatton naye kujibu kuwa ataendelea, Pacquiao hakukawia, akamfuata tena na kumcharaza konde kali la mkono wa kulia na Hatton akadondoka tena chini kama zigo la nyanya.

Safari hii mwamuzi Kenny Bayless hakujisumbua tena kumhesabia Hatton baada ya kumuona akihema kwa nguvu akiwa amelala chali na wala kutokuwa na dalilia ya kunyanyuka mapema, alibaki akipepesa macho pale chini.

Pambano likawa limemalizika katika raundi ya pili na Manny Pacquiao akawa bingwa kwa kumpoka ubingwa Hatton, akajiwekea rekodi ya mapambano 49 akipoteza 3 sare 2 huku 37 akishinda kwa KO na kuifanya rekodi ya Hatton iwe mapambano 45 akipoteza 2, huku 32 akishinda kwa KOs. Hakika hilo lilikuwa ni moja ya pambano bora la KO.

Hawa ndiyo wachezaji 10 wa Kiafrika wanaolipwa vyema
