KUTOKA CHUMBA CHA HABARI

MOROGORO
v WAANDISHI wa habari tanzania wanakabiliwa na changamoto ya ukutokuwa wabunifu katika kuboresha kazi zao na kuimarisha dhana na maudhui ya sekta ya habari.

Hayo yamesemwa na wakufunzi akiwemo Mhadhili wa chuo kikuu cha Tumaini tawi la Dar es salaam Gad Mkemwa na Meneja Program mstaafu wa shirika la utangazaji nchini TBC,Eda Sanga kwenye mafunzo ya uandishi wa habari za utangazaji mjini Morogoro.

Wakizungumza kwa nyakati tofauti wakufunzi hao walisema kuwepo vyombo vingi vya habari si chanzo cha vyombo hivyo kukosa ubunifu badala yake inatakiwa kuwa kigezo cha kuongeza ubunifu ili kuboresha soko la wasikilizaji,watazamaji na wasomaji.

Akizungumzia mada zinazofundishwa ikiwemo ya mbinu mpya za uandishi,matamshi,adabu,tafisiri ya uandishi na jinsi ya kufupisha habari alisema kazi ya uandishi ni ngumu kwakuwa inahitaji kusoma muda wote ili kubadilika.

Eda alisema waandishi wa leo wanatakiwa kuwa wabunifu zaidi katika kazi zao kwakuwa wanavitendea kazi vingi na vyenye kurahisisha kazi zao ukilinganisha na uandishi wa awali.

Awali mweyekiti wa chama cha waandishi wa habari mkoni hapa MOROPC,Bonventure Mtalimbo aliwataka waandishi kubadilika kwa kutokukubali kutumika kama chombo badala yake kuzingatia maadili ya uandishi.

Alisema endapo wataendelea kuwatumikia watu kwa kujali kipato kidogo wanachopewa,wataendelea kufa msikini na fani kuendelea kudharaulika kwa jamii wanayoitumikia ikiitwa fani ya wenye njaa.

Kondoa
v Watu wawili kati ya 94 waliokuwa wamepatwa na ugonjwa wa kipindupindu wamekufa na wengine wametibiwa na kuruhusiwa katika maeneo ya Kikore na Huruwi wilayani Kondoa mkoani Dodoma.

Mganga mkuu wa wilaya ya Kondoa Dkt John Ruanda bila kuwataja majina yao marehemu amesema kuwa kwa sasa amebakia mgonjwa mmoja tu ambaye anaendelea vyema na matibabu hali inayoonyesha kuwa kipindupindu kitakuwa kimedhibitiwa ipasavyo.

Dkt Ruanda amesema kuwa hali ya milipuko ya magonjwa yatokanayo na uchafu ukiwemo ugonjwa wa kipindupindu ni matokeo ya watu wengi kudharau maagizo ya wataalamu wanapotoa elimu ya kupambana na magonjwa hayo.

Amesema kwa uchunguzi uliofanywa katika maeneo ya Bolisa ulipoanzia ugonjwa wa kipindupindu mwishoni mwa mwaka jana eneo ambalo pia ni maarufu sana kwa matunda ya aina mbalimbali,watu hawatumii vyoo ipasavyo.

Amebainisha kuwa hata kama familia inacho choo bado kuna wanafamilia hiyo wanadiriki kujisaidia katika maeneo karibu na miti ya matunda wanayovuna na kuyala bila kunawa na kuyaosha na hayohayo huyapeleka sokoni.

Amesisitiza kuwa katika maeneo ya Kikore kulikotokea vifo,kunalo tatizo la maji safi na salama lakini katika kipindi hiki cha mvua watu wanakunywa maji machafu na mengine ya madimbwini yasiyochemshwa.

Amewataka wananchi wilayani Kondoa kupitia kwa viongozi wao kama madiwani wahakikishe kuwa suala la afya si la mzaha bali ni suala nyeti linalohitaji umakini wa hali ya juu ili kunusuru afya.

Alisema dharau na kujipa moyo na matumaini yasiyoendana na hali halisi ya matokeo ya madhara ya kuzuka kwa ugonjwa,husababisha kilio kwani kama ni mtu kupoteza maisha huwa hakujaribiwi wala hakurudiwi akishakufa kafa tu.

WAKATI HUO HUO: Wananchi wa maeneo ambayo yamefyekwa mazao yaliyokuwa yamekatazwa kulimwa kwa kile kilichodaiwa na mamlaka ya mji mdogo wa Kondoa kuwa ni hifadhi ya wezi,vibaka na majambazi,wametishia kutopiga kura mwaka huu kutokana na kudharauliwa na kuelekezwa kwenye maangamizi ya njaa.

Wakizungumza kwa hasira kwa nyakati tofauti kwenye maeneo ya Kwapakacha,Kilimani,Fockland na Magodawn wananchi hao wameelezea kushangazwa kwao na hatua hiyo ya mamlaka ya mji mdogo wa Kondoa kuwafyekea mazao yao yaliyokomaa huku wakiwa hawana wanachotegemea.

Mmoja wa wazee wa siku nyingi ambaye anakadiriwa kuwa na umri wa miaka takriban 80 Khamisi Mwasi yeye kwa upande wake alinukuu kauli za hayati baba wa Taifa mwalimu Nyerere kuwa kauli ya kilimo cha kufa na kupona watu walihimizwa kulima hata pembezoni mwa nyumba zao au ofisi mwaka 1972 hata wabakize vinjia tu vya kupita ili kukabiliana na balaa njaa lakini leo serikali inakubali wananchi wanaharibiwa mazao yeo.

Mzee Mwasi alihoji kama mazao yanayorefuka yanaweza kuwa vichaka vya wahalifu,je vichaka vya asili ambavyo hadi sasa ni vingi tena kwenye barabara za mamlaka hiyohiyo ya mji mdogo wa Kondoa mbona havitolewi wakati vyenyewe ndimo huwa kunakutwa hata mali za wizi.


Walisema mazao ya chakula tena kwa ajili ya kujikimu tu yangeachwa yakomae kwa kuwa ni ya muda yatolewe na wao serikali wahakkikishe wanaondoa vichaka vya asili amabvyo ndiyo maficho hasa ya vibaka na wezi au hata ubakaji nyakati za usiku.

Mwenyekiti wa mtaa wa Kilimani Shaabani Boi yeye kwa upande wake alipohojiwa na mwanahabari hizi watawatulizaje wananchi hao alijigamba kuwa viongozi wametekeleza agizo lao na kwamba wanaopingana na agizo hilo ni wachache hivyo suala la kutopiga kura ni tishio dogo sana kwani wanaokubaliana na uamuzi huo ni wengi.

Mkurugenzi wa mamlaka ya mji mdogo wa Kondoa Anold Jidai yeye kwa upande wake alisisitiza kuwa agizo hilo ni maamuzi ya wajumbe wa baraza la mamlaka ya mji mdogo wa Kondoa wala si maamuzi ya mtu mmoja hivyo utekelezaji ni lazima.

Kwa upande wake serikali ya wilaya ya Kondoa inafanya jitihada za kupata chakula kutoka serikali kuu ili kuwanusuru wananchi katika baadhi ya maeneo ya wilaya hii ya Kondoa ambao wanakabiliwa na hali ya njaa.

Kwa mujibu wa mkuu wa wilaya ya Kondoa Saidi Bwanamdogo,hata baada ya ugawaji wa chakula cha njaa awamu ya kwanza,bado uchunguzi unaonyesha kuwa kunayo baadhi ya maeneo ambayo yanakabiliwa na tatizo la njaa.

READ THIS PLZ!!!!

WHAT HAPPENS IN HEAVEN I dreamt that I went to Heavenand an angel was showing me around.. We walked side-by-side inside large workroo filled with angels.... My angel guide stopped in front of the firstsection and said, 'This is the Receiving Section. Here, all petitions to God said in prayer are received. ' I looked around in this area, and it was terribly busy with so many angels sorting out petitionswritten on voluminous paper sheets and scrap from people all over the world. Then we moved on down a long corridor until we reached the second section. The angel then said to me, ' This is the Packaging and DeliverySection. Here, the graces and blessings the people asked for are processed and delivered to the living persons who asked for them. ' I noticed again how busy it was there. There were many angels working hard at that station, since so many blessings had been requested and were being packaged for delivery to Earth. Finally at the farthest end of the long corridor we stopped at the door of a very small station. To my great surprise, only one angel was seated there, idly doing nothing. 'This is the Acknowledgment Section,'my angel friend quietly admitted to me. He seemed embarrassed. 'How is it that there is no work going on here?' I asked. 'So sad,' the angel sighed. 'After people receive the blessings that they asked for, very few send back acknowledgements. ' 'How does one acknowledge God's blessings? ' I asked. 'Simple,' the angel answered. Just say, ' Thank you, Lord.. ' 'What blessings should they acknowledge? ' I asked. 'If you have food in the refrigerator, clothes on your back, a roof overhead and a place to sleep you are richer than 75% of this world. If you have money in the bank, in your wallet, and spare change in a dish, you are among the top 8% of the world 's wealthy.' 'And if you get this on your own computer, you are part of the 1% in the world who has that opportunity. 'If you woke up this morning with more health than illness .......You are more blessed than the many who will not even survive this day..' 'If you have never experienced the fear in battle, the loneliness of imprisonment, the agony of torture, or the pangs of starvation ..You are aheadof 700 million people in the world. ' 'If you can attend a place of worship without the fear ofharassment, arrest, torture or death you are envied by, and more blessedthan, three billion people in the world.. 'If your parents are still alive and still married ....you are veryrare. ' 'If you can hold your head up and smile, you are not the norm,you're unique to all those in doubt and despair. ' Ok, what now? How can I start? If you can read this message, you just received a double blessing inthat someone was thinking of you as very special and you are more blessed than over two billion people in the world who cannot read at all. Have a good day, count your blessings, and if you care to, pass thisalong to remind everyone else how blessed we all are.
