Naibu Katibu Mkuu Wizara ya Nishati, Kheri Mahimbali, ametembelea soko la Karume lililoteketea kwa moto usiku wa kuamkia Januari 16 jijini Dar es Salaam.

Akiwa katika soko hilo, alikagua na kushuhudia athari mbalimbali zilizotokana na moto huo ambao umeathiri miundombinu mbalimbali ya Shirika la Umeme Tanzania (TANESCO) na kusababisha baadhi ya sehemu kukosa umeme.

Akizungumza mara baada ya kutembelea soko hilo Naibu Katibu Mkuu Mahimbali amesema kuwa kazi ya kuhakikisha huduma ya umeme inarejea katika Mikoa ya Ilala na Temeke inaendelea ambapo mafundi tayari wapo katika maeneo hayo.

 

Moto huo ulianza majira ya saa 9 usiku ambapo jitihada za kuuzima moto huo zilifanyika ili kudhibiti moto usienee katika makazi ya wananchi lakini kutokana na miundombinu ya soko hilo kazi ya kuzima ilikuwa ngumu na kusababisha na kuteketea kwa soko lote.

Naibu Katibu Mkuu Wizara ya Nishati, Kheri Mahimbali (katikati) akimsiliza Meneja wa Tanesco Kanda ya Mashariki Dar es Saalam na Pwani, Keneth Boimanda (kulia) wakati alipotembelea soko la Karume na kukagua miundombinu ya TANESCO iliyoathirika na moto huo, Januari 16, 2022.

Rais Samia Ateua watatu, Dk Baghayo Saqware ndani arejeshwa TIRA

Rais Samia Suluhu Hassan.

Na Mwandishi Wetu

RAIS Samia Suluhu Hassan, amefanya uteuzi wa viongozi katika taasisi tatu tofauti nchini.

Taarifa iliyotolewa na Mkurugenzi wa Mawasiliano ya Rais Ikulu, Jaffar Haniu, ilisema Rais amemteua Dk Baghayo Saqware kuwa Mkurugenzi wa Mamlaka ya Usimamizi wa Bima Tanzania (TIRA).             

Dk. Saqware ni Mhadhiri Mwandamizi wa Chuo cha Uhasibu Tanzania (TIA), aliwahi  kuongoza taasisi hiyo kwa mafanikio lakini aliondolewa na Rais wa Serikali ya awamu ya tano, Dk. John Pombe Magufuli.

Baadhi ya mafanikio aliyoyapata ni  kuongezeka kwa mapato ya Serikali kupitia tozo za kibima kutoka sh. Bilioni 10.1  mwaka 2015 hadi sh bilioni 12.1 mwaka 2018, sawa na ongezeko la asilimia 11;

Mafanikio mengine ni kuzuia ubadhirifu kwa kuimarisha mfumo wa kieletroniki wa TIRA MIS wenye kuzuia na kuhakiki bima zote za magari nchini. Hatua hii imesaidia kupunguza ubadhirifu na kuwalinda watumiaji wa huduma za bima ya magari na vyombo vingine vya moto.

Mafanikio mengine ni kupanua wigo wa utoaji huduma za bima kwa kuanzisha na kutekelezwa kwa kanuni za kusimamia huduma za bima kupitia mabenki (Bancassurance Regulations 2019) ambazo zilipitishwa na Waziri wa Fedha na Mipango Dk. Philipo Mpango wakati huo Machi 2019.

Kanuni hizi zimelenga kuongeza upatikaji wa huduma za bima nchini kwa urahisi na ufanisi kupitia mtandao wa matawi ya benki Tanzania. Utekelezaji huu ulileta uhasama baina ya Kamishna wa Bima na madalali wa bima (Insurance Brokers) ambao waliamini uanzishwaji wa kanuni hizi zinalengo la kuua biashara ya udalali, jambo ambalo si sahihi.

Kuondoa kero kwa wateja na wafanyabiashara ya bima ni moja ya mafanikio wakati ule baada ya kutekeleza kwa vitendo mabadiliko ya sheria namba 10 ya mwaka 2009 kifungu namba 72 kinachoelekeza ada za bima kulipwa moja kwa moja kwa kampuni ya bima bila kupitia kwa mtu wa kati (insurance intermediaries).

Mafanikio mengine ni kuthibiti utoroshwaji wa tozo za bima kwa kuanzisha utaratibu wa ithibati (“accreditation”) kwa makampuni na madalali wa nje ya nchi wanaofanya biashara ya bima mtawanyo na kampuni zilizosajiliwa nchini.

Mengine ni kuongeza uwezo wa kubakiza tozo nchini (Retention Level) kulinda wateja wa bima kwa mfumo bora wa malipo ya fidia, kulinda ajira za Watanzania, kuweka utaratibu wa kuratibu wataalamu bima nchini.

Mbali na Dk Saqware, Rais Samia pia  amemteua Charles Itembe kuwa Mkurugenzi Mkuu wa Mamlaka ya Eneo Maalumu la Mauzo ya Nje (EPZA). Itembe ni Mkurugenzi Mtendaji wa Benki ya Azania.

Kwa mujibu wa taarifa hiyo ya Ikulu, Rais Samia pia amemteua Ernest Mchanga kuwa Katibu wa Tume ya Pamoja ya Fedha (JFC).

Mchanga ni Katibu Msaidizi, Fedha na Utawala, Tume ya Pamoja ya Fedha (JFC) kutoka Wizara ya Fedha na Mipango.  Uteuzi huo ulianza Januari mosi mwaka huu

Cybersecurity issues require shared responsibility

 

Building a safer cybersecurity environment requires a collaborative approach by regulators and industry players across the planet.

A recent report by Strategy Analytics, a global technology and media analyst agency, rated Huawei, Ericsson and Nokia as the top three global 5G RAN vendors in terms of equipment performance, RAN product portfolio, R&D investment and subscriber projections.

The fact of the matter, however, is that there are no globally accepted standards of cybersecurity itself. There is, as yet, no objective measure of what is secure and what is not, in the cyber realm. The cybersecurity industry is in need of agreed cross-sector standards, before one can start ranking the performance of vendors in various markets.

Unified global standard

“Scientists and engineers would prefer a unified global standard so that people can follow this standard to develop better products.”

– Eric Xu, Huawei Rotating Chairman

Cybersecurity itself is certainly a technical issue that requires expertise, and as such our colleagues at Huawei have been working with governments and industry partners around the world to agree on standards related to digital security.

The same urgent initiatives are taking place in the 5G space, where this new technology has become conflated with the cybersecurity debate.

The motivation for this consultation is not nationalistic nor is it political in nature, but rather motivated by the need to reduce overall costs and to improve return on investment for all of the players in this industry. Great progress has been made on this front between Europe and China and through concerted industry efforts, we are starting to see a unified global standard for 5G, one that industry players can refer to as they develop 5G products.

However, every time 5G or cybersecurity becomes a political or ideological football, this process is stalled. The world market becomes polarised and we separate into our respective territories, duplicating our efforts and building technologies and standards that are incompatible.

5G, as an emerging technology, gives us an opportunity to come together, find agreement, and create a platform that is more secure than any that has come before.

The 5G platform is highly secure. Information transmitted through 5G networks has built-in 256-bit encryption. Hacking into 5G networks would, therefore, require massive computing power (often having to make use of quantum computers) which are not yet even readily available.

“Cybersecurity is an issue that challenges everyone. It should, therefore, get special attention, in the definition of 5G-related standards. 5G is more secure than previous generations of mobile communication technologies.”

– Eric Xu, Huawei Rotating Chairman

It is critical that we return the cybersecurity debate to its essence – technology. Geopolitical manoeuvering and grandstanding around the issue will not improve geopolitical cybersecurity, but damage it.

Objective standards must be the basis of such a technology-based approach. With this in mind, Huawei is an active member of more than 400 standards organisations, industry alliances, and open-source communities globally.

We proactively contribute to these groups and over the years we have submitted nearly 60,000 proposals, doing our bit to build a robust industry ecosystem for everyone. Research and consulting firm Strategy Analytics found that Huawei has provided more contributions to end-to-end 5G standards than any other company in the world.

The setting of standards is a collaborative process, and taking an adversarial approach to technology sets everybody back, especially those who refuse to participate.

A common responsibility

Cybersecurity is a common but differentiated responsibility. Vendors, operators, governments and citizens all have different roles to play and the only way to ensure that the interests of all stakeholders are protected is through broad consultation, dialogue and inclusive participation.

With this in mind, Huawei is constantly working with governments, industry bodies and operators, in a constructive dialogue on cybersecurity. In the UK, our government relations remain healthy, and Huawei is recognised as an industry leader on cybersecurity, despite Britain’s scrutiny of our equipment being among the toughest in the world.

It’s not all plain sailing and officials do raise concerns, which we take pains to address, in order to ensure excellence and to manage risks. Consistently, the issues raised are around quality and security and not related to malfeasance or cyber espionage.

Huawei has been operating in Europe for nearly 20 years and the confidence of our customers can be seen as an expression of trust in Huawei’s top-end cybersecurity standards.

To support and enhance these relationships, Huawei has set up the Huawei Cyber Security Transparency Centre in Brussels, a platform to enhance communication and joint innovation with all stakeholders, public and private. It also provides a technical verification and evaluation platform for customers.

In conclusion

We strive to consult all stakeholders in working to develop secure, reliable 5G and cybersecurity standards. Huawei’s relationships with industry stakeholders are open and honest and constructive criticism and robust discussion are welcomed.

Despite how some see it, technology is not a terrain of struggle and proxy warfare. It’s not about any one nation becoming the ‘technology leader’ of the world, to the detriment of others.

Technology – and the uses we put it to – is for the good of humanity. It is imperative that all industry players (governments, companies and people) continue to communicate and engage, to set the standards for the developments that will see us through the next century.

ACEX CEO URGES LOCAL INVESTORS TO USE DIGITAL PLATFORM IN TRADING EFFECTIVELY

  

African Consolidated Exchange (ACEX) Chief Executive Officer, Peter Mucheru (right), toasts with some of Acex's co-workers, during the official launching of unified exchange platform, ACEX that will allow people to buy and sell assets such as stocks, bonds, forex, cryptocurrencies and other traditional commodities. A brief occasion was held in Nairobi recently.

Tanzanians have been called upon taking advantage offered by the newly launched unified exchange platform, the African Consolidated Exchange (ACEX) that will allow people to buy and sell assets such as stocks, bonds, forex, cryptocurrencies and other traditional commodities.

The trailblazing digital infrastructure would also allow investors to stake in real estate, Venture Capital, Micro-funding, mining and exploration among other projects while earning dividends on trading.

According to ACEX's chief executive officer, Mr Peter Mucheru, the platform intends to rewrite African history by revolutionizing the finance ecosystem through digital means.

Speaking during an exclusive interview with this paper, during the launching event that was conducted in Kenyan capital Nairobi, the chief executive told the paper that ACEX will be the first exchange where native producers from Africa can list their produce, fix their competitive price and earn direct rewards from their efforts.

African products such as cobalt, cocoa, and timber will be synthetically indexed and offered as quotes for traders to take advantage of, he says.

"We also have a microfinancing model, which allows us to partner with local microfinance institutions and facilitate them with funds to provide as credits to micro, small and medium enterprises," he said.

Mr Mucheru said for Tanzania, ACEX are currently reviewing some few microfinance institutions - that when approved will start empowering MSMEs with capital access.

"We understand there is still faint knowledge when it comes to digital economy, with many people in the region fearing scams and online fraudsters. The platform offers education materials and through our local franchises, we ensure that one is well informed before they start trading, " he said.

To start tapping on the company potentials one will need to purchase an initial investment of 100 of Temcoin ($XTEM) which is the native cryptocurrency of ACEX.

Tanzanian Digital trader Mr Elibariki Shilla, who has had near three years experience with the ACEX's potential company TE Markets said that stakeholders and investors can take advantage of the centralized platform because it offers multiple assets trading options unlike any other consolidated market in the world.

"For those who fear the digital trading initiatives, there are experts who offer knowledge and understanding on how to properly exploit the opportunity, as one can also trade by following what the verified traders do, step by step," he said.

Another digital entrepreneur Mr Joshua Fanuel also insisted on the youth using this platform to fully exploit the digital opportunities and overcome the unemployment challenges.

He however said in doing so, one need to make sure they gain enough information so that they can make informed and profitable trading decisions.

"Like in any business, before you put your money one needs to know everything there is about that business. Same for this, you need to be well informed and understand how it goes then start trading, " said Fanuel.

In the ACEX platform there will be a handful of verified people who will be known as merchants who will be allowed to engage in the business of converting $XTEM to fiat (nationally issued currencies) and vice versa.

According to ACEX these merchants will be cast across all regions of Africa to facilitate smooth financial transactions because their fee will be minimal. These merchants will additionally be solving the issue associated with foreign remittances on the African continent.

ELIMU KWA WATOTO WENYE ULEMAVU MKOANI SINGIDA BADO NI CHANGAMOTO

 

Ufundishaji wa aina hii hufanywa kwa ufanisi zaidi na Walimu wa Elimu Maalum na si vinginevyo.

Wanafunzi hawa wa Shule ya Msingi Kizega wilayani Iramba mkoani hapa wakiwa darasani wakifurahia matunda ya uwepo wa Walimu wenye Elimu Maalum.

Wanafunzi hawa wameweza kufikia hatua hii kutokana na juhudi za Mwalimu mwenye Elimu Maalum.

Na Abby Nkungu, Singida | SUALA la kupata elimu kwa watoto wenye mahitaji maalum bado ni changamoto kubwa kutokana na uhaba wa walimu wenye taaluma ya lugha ya alama na ukosefu wa miundombinu rafiki ya kujifunzia na kufundishia katika shule za msingi zinazotoa elimu jumuishi mkoani Singida.

Hayo yamebainika katika kipindi hiki cha Siku ya Kimataifa ya Watu wenye ulemavu inayoadhimishwa Desemba 03, kila mwaka ili kukuza uelewa kwa jamii juu ya kundi hilo na kuhamasisha misaada ya kiutu, Haki na Ustawi kwa watu wenye ulemavu wa aina mbalimbali.

Hata hivyo, wakati dunia ikiadhimisha siku hii, katika shule ya msingi mchanganyiko Mgori mkoani Singida, wanafunzi wenye mahitaji maalum wanasema wanakabiliwa na changamoto kubwa kupata elimu.

Mmoja wa wanafunzi hao, Amiri Mohamed alisema kuwa shuleni hapo hakuna vifaa muhimu vya kujifunzia kwa wenye ulemavu kama vile Mashine au vitabu vya maandishi ya nukta nundu, hali inayosababisha wasioona kutegemea hisani ya wenzao wanaoona kuwasomea maandishi ya kawaida ubaoni ili waweze kuandika kwenye vibao vyao.

“Mtihani unaletwa kwa maandishi ya kawaida kwa wote, wenye mahitaji maalum na wanaoona. Sasa sisi mpaka mwenzio anayeona akusomee ndipo uweze kuandika. Isitoshe, hapo hakuna mwalimu wa lugha ya alama ambaye anaweza kukusaidia” alisema Amiri.

"Hakuna bweni hapa. Tunakolala ni chumba ambacho awali lilikuwa darasa kabla ya kukarabatiwa kuwa Ofisi ya walimu na sasa ndilo 'bweni' letu" alisema Obed Williard, mwanafunzi mwingine.

“Mimi angalau nina uoni hafifu lakini wapo wenzangu ambao hawaoni kabisa. Tunaishi kwenye hili 'bweni' ambalo vyoo vyake ni vya nje. Fikiria changamoto zinazowakumba wasioona.....Wanaweza kuumwa na wadudu wenye sumu, nyoka au hata kudhuriwa na watu wabaya"

Mwalimu wa Kitengo cha elimu maalum katika shule hiyo, Hemed Kilango anakiri kukabiliwa na changamoto kubwa katika kuwafundisha watoto hao kwani hakuna vifaa muhimu na bajeti yao ni ndogo kiasi kwamba haiwezi kununua hata kofia, miwani ya jua au mafuta ya ngozi kwa wanafunzi wenye ualbino.

Ofisa elimu Maalum katika Halmashauri hiyo, Huruma Funda alisema kuwa wanahitaji jumla ya walimu 20 wa elimu maalum lakini waliopo ni sita tu, wawili kati yao wakiwa ni wa lugha ya alama.

Naye Mwenyekiti wa Halmashauri ya wilaya ya Singida, Elia Digha anasema halmashauri yake ilikwisha kuomba walimu wa elimu maalum kutoka Serikali Kuu lakini walijibiwa kuwa idadi ya walimu wa aina hiyo ni ndogo; hivyo wasubiri hadi hapo watakapopatikana, ndipo watapatiwa.

Hivi sasa Serikali inatekeleza Sera ya elimu Jumuishi inayotaka wanafunzi wenye mahitaji maalum na wenye ulemavu wa aina mbalimbali kusoma na wenzao katika shule moja bila kubaguliwa.

Baadhi ya gombe wa Bi. SAYANDE SHUNA wa Kijiji cha Foo Machame Hai aliowanunua kwa ruzuku ya TASAF baada ya kuingizwa kwenye mpango wa Kaya Masikini.

Halmashauri ya Wilaya ya Hai ina kaya 3,523 zilizo katika Vijiji 43 zinazonufaika na Mfuko wa Maendeleo ya Jamii TASAF ili kuwaondolea hali ya umaskini iliyokuwa ikiwakabili.

Kwa mwaka 2021/22 Halmashauri hiyo imetenga Shilingi Milioni 140 zitakazotumika kuziwezesha kaya hizo kuanzisha miradi ya kimaendeleo ikiwemo ujasiriamali na ufugaji ili zenyewe ziweze kujikimu kimaisha.

Hata hivyo uchunguzi umebaini kuwa shughuli za ugugaji hasa wa Ng’ombe na mbuzi ndizo zinazoleta tija kimaendeleo hivyo Tasaf inatakiwa kuwekeza katika kutoa elimu ili ufugaji huo uwe na tija.

ELINE MASAWE mnufaika kutoka Gezaulole, MARGRETH NKYA na SAYANDE SHUNA wa Kijiji cha Foo Machame Hai Kilimanjaro wamesema ili shughuli hiyo iwe na tija wanahitaji zaidi elimu ya ufugaji bora.

“Nina ng’ombe wangu mmoja niliyemnunua kwa fedha za Tasaf, namfuga kwa kumkatia majani, na hata sasa ameshawahi kuzaa mara tatu hivyo huuza ndama kwa kiasi cha shilingi 250,000 na fedha ninayoipata najiendeleza kimaisha ikiwemo kujenga nyumba yangu,” alisema Margareth Nkya.

Sayande Shuna yeye mbali ya ufugaji pia ni mkulima wa mbogamboa ambapo amekuwa akitumia mbolea kutokana na mifugo kurutubisha mazao yake kama ndizi na miparachichi ili kutoa mavuno bora.

“Licha ya kuuza maziwa ya ng’ombe na mbuzi, mbolea kutoka kwa ng’ombe wangu watatu na mbuzi imekuwa ikinisaidia kurutubisha mazao yangu hapa shambani,” alisema Syande.

Akizungumzia juu ya hali ya uwezeshwaji kwa kaya maskini Katibu wa Mtaa wa Gezaulole Tumaini Mkojela amesema, shughuli za ufugaji zimewawezesha wanufaika wengi kusomesha watoto wao ikilinganishwa na zamani.

Mbali na hilo Mwenyekiti wa Kijiji cha Gezaulole FADHILI NG’ANZI amesema kaya zinazowezeshwa na Tasaf zimekuwa msaada kwa wakazi jirani baada ya kujifunza stadi mbalimbali zilizowaendeleza wanufaika kimaisha.
