The Energy sector has brought to a disgraceful
ending of some very promising careers. It has sent packing very powerful and
prominent figures in the country’s upper echelons of power; Infarct, at one
point, it almost brought down the entire government, when the country’s
premiere at the time, faced grand corruption allegations, and was forced to
resign. It is our economic sector, by far mired by grand corruptions and
ineptness.
Reason behind all these has been nothing more than
the bogus contracts. There is therefore, a critical need to review and even
terminate some of the existing contracts in the eyes of the public, in order to
close the loopholes fleecing the country of its wealth.
The Kigoma North Legislator, Zitto Kabwe, has
unleashed in the past few days, some scathing attacks on the Minister of Energy
Sospeter Muhongo, for proposing a thorough review of the Gas exploration
contracts. Mr. Kabwe described Dr. Muhongo’s statements as irresponsible,
publicity stunts and cowboy’s approach at the expense of transparency. What I
found rather irresponsible, odd, flawed and vague, was the broad idea of
“Transparency” in which Mr. Kabwe is attacking Dr. Muhongo’s premise without
providing a practical solution under conventional wisdom.
I also found Mr. Kabwe’s idea of shelving gas
exploration for ten years as logically, and economically naïve. At best I would
describe the proposition as a theory that contravenes the basic and natural
economic principles that cannot be implemented in a needy nation like ours.
Implementing this thought would be nothing short of economic suicide for a
nation whose economy is extremely fragile.
Mr. Kabwe’s Transparency assertion reveals
nothing short of tactical political, intimidation, representation and defense
of the unknown interests. I would not go as far as describing the verbal
assault as a self serving personal act of vengeance. However, the premise under
which Mr. Kabwe’s argument is based, and his pattern of attack, points towards just
that.
Mr. Kabwe unambiguously failed to explain how
making transparent shoddy contractual agreements, will benefit the country
without identifying the loopholes and deficiencies through extensive review.
Arguably, lack of legal and technical knowhow to intimately interpret word by
word in the existing contracts to weed out the elements tilting the scale on
the favor of investors and shadowy forces of corruption, would have lent Mr.
Kabwe’s proposition of transparency, some flesh to stand the test in opposition
Dr. Muhongo’s hypothesis.
Mr. Zitto ought to understand that, major
foreign companies operating in Africa have tremendous resources. They have
access to some of the best lawyers, and subject matter experts with extensive
experience in contractual review, interpretation, negotiations, and writing. A
fact which has many a times, led to the creation of lopsided contracts that
have benefited investors while fleecing the host country.
Mr. Kabwe failed to provide a balanced approach
to those deficiencies. In my opinion, Dr. Muhongo’s approach is heroic, and
nationalistic. The public should, without reservation throw its absolute
support behind this man for his position to temporarily suspend and review all
the current contracts related to gas exploration and even electricity
production.
Having worked in the Investment Banking –Capital
Markets- Can affirm to the fact that, success or failure of an investment,
primarily depends upon how crafty a contract is. Managers across all economic
sectors assemble top legal minds and experienced subject matter experts that
would pull off successful investments through favorable and well structured contracts.
These contracts at the same time have in them, clauses and provisions that
provide room for ongoing review and amendments contingent upon the prevailing
conditions or circumstances and market situations.
My only question is why Zitto is up in arms
trying to block the review of questionable contracts in the public eyes, what is
his fear?
Singapore, India, Venezuela, Brazil etc. in recent years, radically
modernized and even terminated some contracts with foreign investors in various
sectors that were becoming economic liabilities or not equitably
representative. This is how things work be it in municipalities, public or
private companies, sovereign states and government agencies. Dr. Muhongo as a
subject matter expert has suggested just that.
Why should he face political
interference?
From my understanding, TPDC, a body tasked with
the contractual review is not a political body. It is a professional entity
made of subject matter experts –seasoned professionals -. If Mr. Zitto is
dissatisfied with TPDC current formation or the capability, he should demand
the overhaul of its management team for a more qualified one, which will execute
the task –contractual review- diligently, impartially and independently for the
interest of the nation. All findings thereafter be made public to satisfy his
demand for transparency.
Political meddling, intimidations and personal
hostility are not doing the country any good considering the fact that, main
victims of bad contracts in the energy sector are the country’s economy, and
the public at large. Politics should be kept off professional undertakings. Mr.
Kabwe should let Dr. Muhongo do his job. This man has been in the office for a
very short period. He has taken bold and risky decisions no other minister has
ever taken in the ministry and the energy sector in general. He is stepping on
dangerous toes for the best interest of the country, and what he needs the most
at this point is our support not interference.
Dr. Muhongo’s success or failure is not going to
be measured by how many politicians he pleased or displeased, but on what he
delivered to the country at the time of need. Soon or later, the public will
know whether he was a bluff or a HERO he painted himself to be. Dr. Muhongo’s approach is the right step in
the right direction. Wrong step into the wrong direction is to politically
interfere with his work in the name of transparency.
Give him a chance to do
his Job!
Mungu
Ibariki Tanzania

Vichwa kama Mashaka na Muhongo inabidi wawe kwenye Peoples Power kwa wasomi wenzao. CCM siyo chama cha Wasomi. CCM ni chama cha mafisadi. Muhongo amejikuta huko kwa bahati mbaya tu.
ReplyDeleteZitto ni fisadi. Anachorajibu kukingia kifua ni miradi ya wakubwa zake. Huyu mtu hafai kabisa. Kwake ni heri watanzania 44million wapate tabu kuliko yeye kupoteza Hummer na Rangerover yake
Duh ngoma Inogile, hapa patachimbika leo. John Mashaka, Dr. Muhongo and Zitto Kabwe !
ReplyDeleteKwanza hii kazi ingefanywa na John Myinka, huyu jamaa ni mroho wa madaraka na public attention. Mtaniambia siku moja, huyu Zitto anajaribu kuwakingia kifua mafisadi wenzake hana cha uzalendo wala nini. Zitto ni janga la Taifa kama CCM yake.
WACHANGIAJI, NINGEWAOMBA MUWE WASTAARABU KIDOGO.MTAONA KWAMBA MASHAKA KAMFUNIKA ZITTO KISAWASAWA, LAKINI SIYO HIVYO. KUNA TOFAUTI KUBWA SANA KATI YA MASHAKA NA ZITTO. ZITTO NI MTOTO WA MKULIMA. AMESOMA SHULE ZA KATA NA KWENDA VYUO VYETU VYA KAWAIDA, UDSM TOFAUTI NA MASHAKA, ZITTO ANAFANYIA TAIFA MAKUBWA . MASHAKA AMESOMA SHULE NZURI KAENDA CHUO KIKUU MAREKANI, ANAFANYA KAZI WALLSTREET. TRAINING ALIYOPEWA NA MAZINGIRA YAKE YA KAZI NI TOFAUTI NA ZITTO. HII NDIO SABABU UWEZO WA MASHAKA KUCHAMBUA MASWALA NA KUJENGA HOJA INAWEZAKUONEKANA NI KUBWA KULIKO YA ZITTO. ILA, NAMKUBALI ZITTO ZAIDI KWA SABABU ANGESOMA, ANGEISHI NA KUFANYA KAZI KATIKA MAZINGIRA ALIYOPO MASHAKA ANGENG’ARA ZAIDI YA MASHAKA. HONGERA KWA ZITTO
ReplyDeleteZitto Kabwe ni mtu wa kuropoka sana. Anaamka anawaza kitu na kurupuka nalo. Siku zote anajua watanzania ni wajinga, nafurahi kuwaona vijana mahiri kama Mashaka wakimdhibiti Zitto kisawasawa.
ReplyDeleteIngekuwa ni mtu wa Chadema, au mwanasiasa angesema anaonewa wivu. Kazi nzuri Mashaka, kumchambua huyu fisadi chipukizi, hakika ujumbe utamfikia.
Hawa ndio wanafunzi wa Professor Nyang’oro pale Duke University. Wasomi aina ya Mashaka ni wachache sana. Watu waliosoma JD/MBA ni vigumu sana kuwapata.
ReplyDeleteMashaka amethibitisha umahiri wake na upeo wake katika maswala ya kisiasa na kiuchumi. Hakika hii atiko imeadikwa na msomi wa ukweeeeee.
Zitto amekusoma baada ya kuchambuliwa kama karanga. Hapa hana namna wala uwezo wa kujibu hoja za Mashaka
Ninachompendea Mh. mashaka ni lugha yake. Kama ni kiingereza basi ameisomea !
ReplyDeleteHUYU ZITTO NI NDUMI LA KUWILI. HATA SISI CHADEMA HATUNA IMANI NAYE. HUYU MTU NI FISADI NAMBA MOJA, ALIYEJISAHAHAU KWAMBA NANI KAMPA HUO UBUNGE. AMESHIBA KULA ANAANZA KUNYEA WATU HETI TRANSAPARENCY, TRANSPARENCY MY ASS. ZITTO NEED TO STOP. MIMI CHADEMA LAKINI HUYU MTU NI MTU WA KUOGOPA HOVYO KABISA. NIMESHUKURU VIJANA WAMEANZA KUHITOKEZA WANAOWEZA KUMPINGA KWA HOJA NA KUMUACHA UCHI WA MNYAMA. ARUDI AJIONEE WASOMI WANAVYOMDAHARAU.

ReplyDeletemnatoka povu na zito kwa kuwa anataka kugombea urais kupitia chakudema, chama cha wachaga, chama cha kikatoliki! ndio sababu yooote ya kupiga kelele !
ReplyDeleteHuyu Zitto asifikirie watanzania wajinga. Hiyo Transparency ipatikane kwenye bunge ya wala Rushwa? yeye mwenyewe ni mtuhumiwa wa rushwa. Amekutana na Genius kamchamba kisawasawa. Hongera mashaka, njoo bungeni watanzania watapumua dhidi ya kirusi Zitto Kabwe. kwanza anatuvurugia CDM yetu aondoke. Kha !
ReplyDeletetatizo ninaloliona ni kwamba wachangiaji wengi hamumfahamu Zitto, kwa wale tunaomfahamu tumeelewa nini kazungumzia.
ReplyDeleteMnaona Mashaka anajua lugha... its bse yupo nchi zinazoongea kiingereza.
AM SURE LEADERS OF THIS NATION ARE READING JOHN MASHAKA. THIS YOUNGMAN IS DEFINITELY A FUTURE LEADER OF THIS COUNTRY. THINGS HE WRITE ARE AMAZING. THIS IS GOOD MASHAKA. DR. MUHONGO SHOULD WRITE YOU A PERSONAL NOTE OF THANK YOU, EVEN THE PRESIDENT. THIS IS GOOD ENOUGH TO SILENCE THE WINDBAG AND THE CORRUPT ZITTO. I AM SURE EVEN HIS LEADERS FREEMAN AND DR. SLAA ARE FEDUP WITH HIM, BECAUSE THEY KNOW WHAT DR. MUHONGO IS DOING
ReplyDeletenashangaa mbona ZITTO anaingilia kazi za wenake? hii si ni wizara kivuli ya John Mnyika? Zitto kaingiaje na kwa manufaa ya nani?
ReplyDeleteFreeman Mbowe angejaribu kumshika huyu mashaka kwa ajili ya 2015. maandiko yake siku zote zimejaa busara mno.

TUJARIBU SANA KUIPENDA NA KUITHAMINI LUGHA YETU. MKATAA KWAO MTUMWA.
ReplyDeleteasante mashaka kuwazungumzia watanzania waliowengi ambao hawana uwezo wa kuandika kiufasaha kama wewe. hakika ujumbe umefika hadi rais amepokea ujumbe wako huu mzitoo. laiti vijana wengi wangeiga mfano huu wa kusimamamia kidete haki. nadhani hata viongozi wa chadema wanaoipenda nchi yao wanakubali pale mtanzania mwenzao anapofanya ya maana kama sospete muhongo
ReplyDeleteSi mashaka wala Zito,si suala la kiingereza hapa ni point tuu.Nionavyo mimi hapa wote wanajaribu kuoneshana usomi au tuseme uchambuaji wa mambo.Kila mtu anajua hilo.Tunalolitaka ni uhalisia wa hoja zao na utekelezaji wa hoja hizo,sio mambo ya kusadikika.
ReplyDeleteSiasa mchezo mchafu tuu,uongo mtupu hata ulaya ni uongo ule ule, mfano tazama ahadi za Nick Cleg naibu waziri mkuu wa Uingereza aliahi ada haitapanda sasa anaomba radhi.
Hakuna Zitto wala Mashaka 2015.Nchi haongozwi kwa ma degreee yenu inaongozwa kwa hekima namoyo wa uzalendo
tatizo la Zitto ni kwamba kalewa madaraka na kujisahau. Anachotaka ni urais tena kwa jehuri. Dawa yake ni watanzania kumuonyesha vumbi kwani tumeshapoteza imani naye kama taifa. huyu mtu zitto ni hatari kwa taifa letu
ReplyDeleteDawa ya Zitto Kabwe, John Masjaka
ReplyDeletewatu wengine bwana, heti mashaka ameandika vizuri kwa kiingreza kwa sababu ndio lugha nayoongea. Njoo UK ukutane na watu ambao wamezaliwa wakiongea kiingereza alafu usome wanyoyaandika kutumia hiyo lugha yao. kwa mashaka hii ni kipaji kwa maana hata kwenye vyuo vyetu vikuu maprofessa wengi hawana uwezo alionao mashaka
ReplyDeleteMashaka anafanya kazi na shrika moja la Wall-Street linaloitwa Wells Fargo Investment Bank.
ReplyDeleteIli kuingia huko, unakuwa handpicked na lazima uwe kichwa hasa siyo watu wa kubaatihsa na ku kremu vitu.
Hongera mashaka, nina uhakika Zitto kayasoma makala yako na sidhani anao ubavu wa kuweza kujadiliana au kuleta ubishi wake. walikimnia wakina US bloggs ndio aweze zitto?
Kwa watanzania ops..watanganyika wote, napenda kusema kuwa nilisikitishwa kwa mara ya pili kwa Mbunge ambaye alionekana mpigania haki na maendeleao ya watanzania kuwa katika msimamo aliousema katika wizara hiyo mara mbili mfululizo. Mara ya kwanza alipinga vikali kusimamishwa kwa viongozi wa Tanesco, na kuita kinyume cha sheria..kitu ambacho hakutusaisidia kwa kumsaidia waziri na naibu wake na hasa sisi watanganyika ni kwa namna gani kwa wakati huo tungeweza kuvunja umafia wa ulaji wa fedha za umma kama ilivyodhihirika baadaye. Nilipoona barua yake hapa nilitegemea kusikia akikanusha na kusema sio yeye aliandika...kwa kweli no matter how much he is for the wananchi, sisi wachache tunashindwa kuelewa kuwa ni kwa namana gani kupitia tena mikataba na kuangalia MASLAHI YETU. ni kitu kibaya?? sioni kuwa hili linahusu usomi bali nia ya dhati..ukiacha kuwa aliniacha hoi kwa kuandikia kwa kinger5eza kigumuu sisi wananchi wengi tusiojua kingereza kigumu. Pia ikumbukwe kuwa katika kujadili Consolidated Holding Corporation alikaa upande ambao sisi wapigania mali za umma hatukumtegemea. Kitendo cha wazidi kujaribu kutafuta ufumbuzi wa kuzuia kuliwa mali ya umma na wachache kwa ujanja..elimu.. blabla kilitakiwa kiungwe mkono na wapenda uzalendo.. nilitegemea kuona CHADEMA kuwa ingeshikilia bango hilo swala. tumeona kwa namana gani kwa muda mfupi waziri amefumua mambo ya Tanesco na mategemeo yetu kuwa jhali italeta ahueni. I just hope he Kabwe is not speaking for CHADEMA on this issue.. really I do.
ReplyDeleteOtherwise napenda nichukue nafasi hii kumpongeza mashaka kwa kupambanua swala la Zito. Natoa pongezi na kuunga mkono kwa jitihada binafsi za waziri na naibu wake. CCM bila shaka ilikosea kumchagua.. lakini sis watanganyika tunadhani ndie anaiokoa nchi..kama Mashaka alivyosema kuwa wizara hii ni kama mgongo wa uchumi wa nchi.
Bila shaka watanzania wema watamuunga mkono waziri bila kujali upande wa upi wa siasa wanatokea..
WAZIRI sisi WATANGANYIKA tuko nyuma yako. ukitaka tukubebe kama katibu mmoja alivyobebwa ... tutakubeba na kusukuma gari lako...lakini naamiini wewe sio type hiyo. be blessed

ReplyDeleteInafiki muda nashikwa sana na hasira na huyu mtu anayeitwa Zitto. Anawaona watanzania kama wapumbavu vile.

When Dr. Muhongo gives bold and clear directives to the newly elected Board Members of TPDC on overseeing and assessing different existing contracts, the POAC Chairman calls it a political stunt & flip flopping.
Wengi wetu tunawafahamu hawa wawili; kati ya Mwanasayansi Mwadilifu Prof. Dr. Muhongo na Mwanasiasa kigeugeu Zitto; Zitto ni flip-floper wa karne 21 aki flip flop kati ya Mafisadi na Wapiganaji na flip -floper kati ya CCM & CHADEMA.

ReplyDeleteKwa swasiomjua Jon Mashaka, huyu kijana umahiri na uwezo wake sio wa leo. Alikuwa ni mpole sana mwenye kuongea kwa ufasaha. Mwaka 1995 Nakumbuka akiwa mdogo sana. Nadhani alikuwa miaka kati ya 15 na 17, aliwahi kufanya kazi UN arusha. Kutokana uelewa wake na kipaji alichonacho, watu hasa majaji pamoja na wafanya kazi wengi walimpenda sana. Judge Laiti Kama, William Sekule, Rosette Muzi-Morrison, Elizabeth Nahamya (Uganda Supreme court Justice) Neverthelen Pillay ambaye ndiye Rais wa sasa awa UNHCR duniani ni baadhi tu ya watu waliokuwa na ukaribu mkubwa na huyu kijana. walimpenda sana. Tabia yake ya kuandika mambo ya kisiasa, hata umahiri wake alikuwa nao kipindi hicho
ReplyDeleteKipaji cha Mashaka siyo cha leo. Nakumbuka Prosecutor aliyesimamia kesi ya Akayesu, Richard –Pierre Prosper, US-ambassador at large for War Crimes, ndiye mtu wakwanza kumuita Mashaka Genius baada ya kusoma makala Fulani aliyoiandika. Wakili wa (Canal Bagosoara) Tiffaine Dickson kutoka Canada alimwambia mmoja wa Security officers wa Kitanzania kwamba huyu kijana atakuja kufanya makubwa hapo baadae
Kuna mama mmoja aliyeitwa Beatrice Lacoste, mfaransa aliyekuwa mkuu wa kitengo cha Public relations alimpenda mashaka mno. huyu mama mara nyingi alikuwa hata mtu yeyote kugusa nyaraka zake. Hata katibu wake wa muhutasi hakumruhusu kugusa baadhi ya nyaraka Fulani, ila Mashaka aliaminiwa na huyu mama kiasi kwamba wengi walishangaa. Registrar wa mahakama kipindi hicho, Angelo Silver alihakikisha kwamba Mashaka anapewa usafiri maalum kitu ambacho kiliwashtua wengi kwenye mahakama ya ICTR. Hillary Clinton alipoitembelea mahakama, Kijana Mashaka aliruhusiwa kukutana na mama Klinton pamoja na mwanaye mdogo ambaye nadhani alikuwa miaka 14.
Chini ya miezi saba baada ya Mashaka kuwepo kwenye UNICTR, ghafla Mashaka aliondoka kwenda marekani ambako amebakia hadi leo huu. Danford Mpumilwa anamjua john Mashaka vizuri, ni baadhi tu ya watu waliokuwa wakimsaidia kuhariri makala yake na mengine yalitoke akwenye Arusha Times
Mdau
UNICTR-Arusha
WOTE HUMU NDANI WACHOONGEA NI UJINGA MTUPU, HUYU MASHAKA KAMA NI MTANZANIA MWENYE UCHUNGU NA NCHI KWA NINI ASIJE KWAO. FIMBO YA MBALI INAMTISHA NYOKA TU HAIMUUUI. TATIZO LA ZITTO NI 1) MTU WA KIGOMA SIO MOSHI AU NYANDA ZA JUU NA 2) NI MUISLAMU. HIVI YEYE MWENYEWE HAJASHTUKIA TU. KWAMBA CHADEMA HAFIT NI OBVIOUS NA MSISAHAU AKINA PROF. SAFARI NAO WAMO KATIKA HILO BANDWAGON.

ReplyDeleteOoh dear, nilishaanza kukata tamaa kuwa hii nchi haina tena wazalendo. Lakini wakati nikitafakari utendaji wa mawaziri "majembe" kama Mwakyembe, Kagasheki, Tibaijuka, Muhongo na Magufuli, napata faraja sana kuwa kumbe wapo vijana kama Mashaka ambao nao, wana uchungu na nchi hii.
ReplyDeleteMhe. JK kabakiza miaka mitatu tu kumaliza muda wake wa urais. Siku zote huwa naamini kuwa, ukiwa na nia njema na jambo lolote, Mwenyezi Mungu atakusimamia tu, hata iweje.....it's just a matter of time!!
Jamani nawaambia hivi, haya tunayoyaona hivi sasa, yanayofanywa na a very few ministers (ambao hawafikii hata kumi), ni dalili tosha kuwa sasa Mwenyezi Mungu ameamua kumsimamia mja wake. Ninaamini (in my bones) kuwa, come 2015, Tanzania itakuwa katika level nyingine kabisa ya uchumi.
Pata picha tu, wakati huo barabara za jijini Dar zitakuwa zimekamilika, daraja la Kigamboni litakuwa tayari, hilo jiji la Kigamboni litakuwa limeshaanza kupata shepu, barabara kuu huko mikoani zitakuwa zimekamilika, patakuwa na something tangible kuhusu reli, Bandari na Air Tanzania na masuala ya mafuta, gesi, Madini na utalii yatakuwa yanaingizia hii pesa nchi kama hatuna akili nzuri. AND THEN, BY THE TIME, JK ANAMALIZA MUDA WAKE, ATAONDOKA AKIWA SHUJAA!! Dharau na kebehi zote dhidi yake, zitalegea.
Wale mawaziri, wakuu wa taasisi na mashirika aliowahi kuwateua kwa imani wangemsadia lakini wakamsaliti na kuishia kuwa mafisadi wa levels tofauti tofauti, watakuwa hoi kisaikolojia pamoja na simanzi kwa kuishi kwa pesa za kifisadi ambazo hazina uwezo wa kuwapa AMANI ROHONI. Mnawajua mafisadi ambao awali walikuwa mawaziri, manaibu waziri, makatibu wakuu, wakuu wa mashirika na taasisi, n.k. ambao hivi sasa wanaishi maisha ya kiutukufu, lakini wana masononeko ya ajabu, na wengi wao hawaishi kuhudhuria clinics za maradhi makubwa mbalimbali kutokana na kuishi kwa fedha za "dhuluma"...
Huwezi kutumia cheo au madaraka uliyopewa ukajilimbikizia utajiri kwa gharama ya maisha ya watanzania, UKASALIMIKA!!!!! No way!! Kama siyo wewe mwenyewe, basi kikazi chako lazima kitalipia uovu huo.
Kwa hiyo jamani, haya mnayoyaona yanayotokea ya kina Mashaka, Muhongo, and the like, ni katika mtiririko wa anayoyatenda Mwenyezi Mungu kwa mja wake. Kamwe JK hataondoka kwa fedheha, bali atatuachia Watanzania nchi ambayo tutajivunia katika Afrika Mashariki, Afrika nzima na Duniani kote.
Kazi yetu sote kwa wale wenye mapenzi mema na nchi hii, ni kila mmoja wetu katika nafasi yake, atoe mchango wake kwa kufanya kazi kufa na kupona ili muda wake wa kuondoka (kustaafu, etc) ukifika, awe ametoa mchango ambao ni tangible kwa nchi hii.
Mungu ibariki Tanzania,
Mungu um-bariki JK wetu.
This is the problem of picking and making a bunch of illiterate idiots to rule the country. Zitto wants everything. He wants presidency, wants IPTL monies. You name it. Zitto with his big mouth has been proven a novice by the more rhetorical and well exposed Mashaka. How would he even dare writing such a cheap article? The world is not the same with thousands of young Tanzanians getting exposure and first class western education. I don’t see how this guy keeps on running around without being told that he is causing chaos in the country. In the parliament, he is the hero, in the media he is the darling. In the streets he is the superman. Please !
ReplyDeleteZitto needs to get a life, and thank you Mr. Mashaka for putting him in his place. At least from now on before writing his useless articles trying to demonize our leaders he will know what will be awaiting him in the real world
Hivi huo u-genius wa Mashaka uko wapi hapi hapo? Tatizo la mikataba mibovu siyo umahiri wa maadvocate wao, ni ubinafsi tulionao wa kutanguliza maslahi binafsi mbele na maslahi ya taifa nyuma. Kama mikataba itakuwa wazi, hilo tutalipunguza kidogo kwa sababu kudanganya umma wa watu milioni 40 si ishu ndogo. Watawala wanapewa pesa na wawekezaji kisha wanasaini mikataba ya ovyo kwa kuwa wanajua itakuwa siri.
ReplyDeletemashaka unaandika vizuri na una hoja nzuri ila hasara uliyo ni milmbukeni wa lugha. yaani sijui ndo ushamba wa ulaya au ndo tukuone unajua sana kinngereza.kumbuka kiswahili kwa sasa kinaongelewa na watu zaidi ya milioni 250 ulimwenguni.nchi ndogo kama norway,lithuania na moldova ambapo idadi ya wananchi ni kidogo kuliko idadi ya wasukuma,wanatoa kipaumbele kwa lugha zao.acha ulimbukeni ingawa hongera kwa hoja zilizosimama
ReplyDeleteWasiomjua Zitto ndio wanashangaa. Huyu ni mtafutaji wa tumbo lake. Na hivyo yuko tayari kusema upuuzi wowote wa hata kumtukana Waziri bila aibu endapo tu AMETUMWA NA MAFISADI NA WAMEMWAHIDI kushibisha tumbo lake.
ReplyDeleteAmbacho hakujua ni kuwa huyu Prof. Muhongo ni mtu wa aina na level gani? .
Na
Naona nirudie maoni niliyoyatoa kwenye mwnzo wa habari hii kuhusu KZ. Mashaka ajaongelea hoja iliyotolewa na KZ. Naye amemiss point, "transparent". Ingawa jamaa mnammwagia sifa kibao. "Hivi nyie jamaa wote mlioandika maoni hapo juu ni mtu mmoja au wote ndo niye mnakula pamoja hizo mali za taifa na waziri? Siwaelewi kabisa, wote mnampinga Zitto Kabwe, wakati sioni kibaya alichosema. TRANSPARENCY manaake nini?! Si uwazi!. Naona mnachanganya watu tu, ndiyo maana nimesema inaonekana mtu mmoja anarudia tu kuandika maoni kuonekana anasupport serikali lakini "tunaona mpaka kwenye ngozi hata kama umejipaka vipodozi" Kama mnasema Mashaka yuko Wall Street, basi wenyewe ndio wasomi waliofanya uchumi wa ulimwengu mzima uyumbe kama ulivyo sasa. A guy genius?!!! tumepotea wa kwetu.
ReplyDeleteNamkubali Zitto kwa asilimia Zote, hizo povu mnazotoa nizachuki binafsi tuu.... John Mashaka Am sorry navithungu vyako sikukubali kabsaa
ReplyDeleteZitto ni Mzalendo Muadilifu na muwajibikaj siku zote anajua anachofanya, sijawahi kusikia wala kuona amekurupuka ' sikuzote anajua anachofanya yuko makin sana na kila anachofanya ndio maana hata wakizushaga upuuzi wowote hakuna anayemtaja jina direct na akitokea wote hukimbia.... yaan yupo makin asilimia zote... haya yote ni KUMKOMAZA KISIASA tuu soooo mnaweza kuendelea na madongo na negativity zenu juu ya Zitto...

Changieni hoja acheni mambo ya kushaBikia kiingereza,lazima watz ' tufikE maHali tuonyeshe seroussNess yetu kwenye maswaLa mazito kama haya yanayohusu hasa uchumi unaougua Kama huu wetu.
ReplyDeleteProfesa muhongo ni jasiri na anahitaji kuungwa mkono,
Insights za mashaka ni nzuri (Kama angeaNdika kwa lugha nyepesi zaidi).
Wasomi wachumi ,taasisi za utafitI wa maswala ya uchumi Kama kina esrf hili ndio jukwaa lenu tunaomba mtoe hoja zenu zenye kusupportiwa na utafiti tuweze kuona
Nini kifanyike kututoa tulipo katika hizi kamba za mikataba mibovu ya sekta ya madini na nishati.
