France AFD Approve USD12m Credit for Tanzania Renewable Energy


The French Development Agency (AFD) approved a USD12m credit line to the Bank of Africa – Tanzania (BOA-T) to finance renewable energy and energy efficiency projects in the country.

The credit facility agreement was signed by Bruno Deprince, AFD East Africa Community Regional Director and Ammishaddai Owusu-Amoah, Managing Director and CEO of BOA-T, on November 22nd, 2016.

 The credit line will enable BOA-T to provide both short-term and long-term funding at attractive interest rates to both public and private sector clients to implement renewable energy and energy efficiency projects.

 “The project will contribute to increasing energy efficiency and the share of renewable energy in the Tanzania economy, consequently contributing to reduction of CO2 emissions and the pressure placed on fossil fuels,” BOA-T and AFD joint press release indicates.

“The facility will thus help in facilitating Tanzanian entities and businesses to access affordable green technologies and to invest in rationalization of energy use, thus helping them to improve their efficiency and overall competitiveness as well develop clean energy.

” The credit line is also accompanied with a technical assistance program funded by the European Union (EU) to enable BOA-T to strengthen its capacities in green finance.

The technical assistance will also provide expertise for potential investors and project developers to further build on their expertise in developing viable renewable energy and energy efficiency investments.

This support covers the entire investment process and includes projects preparation, risk assessment, and bank capacity building.

The signed agreement falls under the Sustainable Use of Natural Resources and Energy Finance (SUNREF) East Africa program.

SUNREF East Africa Launched in 2011, SUNREF East Africa is promoting the development of a low carbon economy in the region (Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya) by financing the development of renewable energy and energy efficiency solutions.

 To support private investment in green energy and energy efficiency, AFD supports local banks in identifying green investment opportunities and in allocating green loans with favorable conditions for tailor-made debt.

LWANDAMINA AKABIDHIWA TIMU RASMI LEO NAKUSMA HAYA..


Geroge Lwandamina ametambulishwa rasmi kuwa kocha mpya wa Yanga SC akirithi nafasi ya kocha wa zamani wa klabu hiyo Hans van der Pluijm ambaye amepewa majukumu mapya ya kuwa Mkurugenzi wa Ufundi ndani ya klabu hiyo inayotetea ubingwa wake wa VPL ilioutwaa msimu uliopita.

Lwandamina amesaini mkataba wa miaka miwili utakaomuweka Jangwani.

Makamu Mwenyekiti wa Yanga Clement Sanga amewatambulisha wawili hao ndani ya makao makuu ya klabu ya Yanga na kumkabidhi Lwandamina jezi ya Yanga ikiwa ni ishara ya utambulisho na kumkaribisha ndani ya klabu.

Pluijm pia ametangazwa rasmi kuchukua majukumu mapya ya kuwa Mkurugenzi wa Ufundi akiachana na masuala ya ukocha ndani ya klabu hiyo aliyoipa mafanikio makubwa ikiwa chini yake kama kocha mkuu.

Lwandamina amekabidhiwa klabu ikiwa nafasi ya pili kwenye msimamo wa ligi kuu Tanzania bara pointi mbili nyuma ya vinara wa ligi Simba ambao wanapointi 35 baada ya mzunguko wa kwanza kumalizika.

Kocha huyo (Lwandamina) aliifikisha Zesco United hatua ya nusu fainali kwenye michuano ya klabu bingwa Afrika msimu uliomalizika hivi karibuni, atakuwa na kibarua kuhakikisha anatetea taji la VPL, Azam Sports Federationa Cup (FA Cup) pamoja na kuhakikisha Yanga inafanya vizuri kwenye michuano ya kimataifa ambapo msimu uliopita ilifika hatua ya makundi ya kombe la shirikisho Afrika chini ya Pluijm.

Kocha huyo mpya wa yanga akitoa sifa kemukemu:

Alimsifu mtangulizi wake, Pluijm kwamba amefanya kazi nzuri na akasema atafuata nyayo zake na atashirikiana naye bega kwa bega kuhakikisha Yanga inapata mafanikio zaidi.
Lwandamina amekana madai kwamba amependekeza wachezaji wawili aliokuwa nao Zesco United ya kwao, Zambia kiungo Misheck Chaila na mshambuliaji Mkenya Jesse Were wasajiliwe pia. 
Baada ya kuiongoza Yanga katika jumla ya mechi 128 kwenye awamu mbili, akishinda 80, sare 25 na kufungwa 23, Pluijm aliyetua Jangwani mwaka 2014 anampisha Lwandamina.
Katika mechi 19 za nusu msimu mwaka 2014, alishinda 11, sare sita na kufungwa mbili, wakati katika mechi 110 za tangu mwaka jana, alishinda 69, sare 19 na kufungwa 21.
Na anahama nafasi baada ya msimu mzuri uliopita, akibeba mataji yote matatu, Ngao ya Jamii, Ligi Kuu na Kombe la Shirikisho la Soka Tanzania (TFF), maarufu kama Kombe la Azam Sports Federation (ASFC).
Pluijm pia aliiwezesha Yanga kufika hatua ya makundi ya michuano ya Afrika (Kombe la Shirikisho) kwa mara ya kwanza tangu mwaka 1998 na mara ya pili kihistoria. Yanga ilifika hatua ya makundi ya Kombe la Shirikisho mwaka huu baada ya mwaka 1998 kufika hatua ya makundi ya Ligi ya Mabingwa.
Na kwa mafanikio hayo, haikuwa ajabu Pluijm akishinda tuzo ya kocha bora wa Ligi Kuu ya Vodacom Tanzania Bara mwishoni mwa msimu uliopita. 
Benchi jipya la Ufundi Yanga sasa linakuwa chini ya Pluijm kama Mkurugenzi, Lwandamina Kocha Mkuu, Juma Mwambusi Kocha Msaidizi, Juma Pondamali Kocha wa makipa, Hafidh Saleh Meneja, Daktari Edward Bavu, Jacob Onyango Mchua Misiliu na Mtunza Vifaa Mohamed Omar ‘Mpogolo’.

Manchester United yamtamani Nyota wa Genk, mwenyewe awatahadharisha


Imeripotiwa kuwa Manchester United imetuma watu wake kwa ajili ya kumfuatilia winga chipukizi wa Genk ya Ubelgiji, Leon Bailey ili kumsajili baada ya msimu wa 2016/2017 kumalizika mwakani.
Inasemekana kuwa Man United inavutiwa na uwezo wa winga huyo mwenye miaka 19 na ipo tayari kumsajili ili kujiunga na kikosi cha klabu hiyo kinachonolewa na Mreno, Jose Mourinho.

Akizungumza kuhusu Man United kutaka kumsajili, Bailey alisema ana ndoto za kucheza Ligi Kuu ya Uingereza lakini kama Manchester United itashindwa kumthibitishia namba katika kikosi cha kwanza basi hatajiunga.


“Ninandoto za kucheza Ligi Kuu ya Uingereza, lakini kama Man United itanipangia dakika za kucheza, nitabaki Genk,” alisema Bailey.

WACHEZAJI wa Zesco United, kiungo Misheck Chaila na mshambuliaji Jesse Were wamesema kwamba hawajazungumza na Yanga SC juu ya mpango wa kumfuata kocha wao, George Lwandamina aliyetangulia kwa mabingwa hao wa Tanzania.


Tovuti ya Supersport imeandika kwamba mshambuliaji wa kimataifa wa Kenya na kiungo wa Zambia wameripotiwa kuwa mbioni kujiunga na vigogo wa Tanzania katika dirisha hili la majira ya baridi kumfuata Lwandamina.

Were, ambaye amefunga mabao 15 katika msimu wake wa kwanza wa Zesco, kufuatia kujiunga na wababe hao wa Zambia kutoka Tusker ya kwao, Kenya Januari, amesema yeye 'bado yupo yupo' sana Zesco.

"Yote nayoweza kuzungumza kuhusu sakata la Yanga ni kwamba hawajazungumza na mimi. Kumekuwa na tetesi juu ya hili ndiyo, na nimesoma juu ya hili,” alisema Were.

Pamoja na hayo, Were amesema kwamba mpira upo miguuni mwa Zesco, kukubali au kukataa ofa ya Yanga ikitokea wakatuma maombi ya huduma zake.

"Lakini kwa sasa mimi ni mchezaji wa Zesco, nina mkataba, nina furaha, fikra zangu zipo kwenye mechi zilizosalia na nipo tayari kuwa hapa hadi nimmalize mkataba wangu mwishoni mwa msimu wa 2017,” alisema Were.

Kwa upende wake, Chaila amekanusha pia kufanya mazongumzo na Yanga au Lwandamina jus ya kujiunga na mabingwa hao wa kihistoria wa Tanzania.

“Hakuna hate momma aliyezungumza na mimi au klabu. Zote ni tetesi tu,” alisema Chaila. “Hakika sijazungumza naye (Lwandamina) tangu aondoke, lakini namuheshimu kama mzazi wangu,".”

Jesse Were amesema Zesco ndiyo wenye maamuzi iwapo Yanga watatuma maombi ya kutaka huduma zake


Australian Company Granted License for Chilalo Graphite Project



The Tanzanian Ministry of Energy and Minerals recently granted a 10-year mining license to Australian resource company Graphex Mining (ASX:GPX) for the Chilalo graphite project in south-east Tanzania.

 The mining license has been granted for a period of 10 years and covers an area of 10sq. km (the Shimba graphite deposit at Chilalo).

 Phil Hoskins, Managing Director of Graphex, said: “Securing the mining license is a significant step towards our objective of commencing project development and commercial production at Chilalo.” He added: “We continue to make progress with our project partners regarding offtake and finance for the development of Chilalo and the receipt of the mining license, combined with the expected near-term conclusion of their technical due diligence, will allow these negotiations to move to a more advanced stage.

” Chilalo Graphite Project The Chilalo graphite project is located in south east Tanzania, within the Mozambique belt, which is well known for hosting some of the world’s highest grade and coarse flake graphite deposits.

Average annual production is expected to be 69,000t of graphite concentrate over 10 years. Graphex indicates that the Shimba deposit has a total resource (indicated and inferred) of 25.

1m t; however, after a recent drilling program, Graphex has identified a new mineralized zone 200–300 meters north of Shimba.

Accordingly, this will underpin an increase in the Shimba mineral resource estimate, which is expected to be announced in the near future, Graphex notes. Hoskins commented:

“We have still only scratched the surface on our tenements and I expect additional exploration to be carried out following the finalization of project offtake negotiations.

Given the number of untested targets, Chilalo has the potential to host one of the world’s largest graphite resources.”

Best Lies of Black People History




In this special month devoted to our history, The Final Call explores some of the most outrageous and false stories, accounts, and sentimental tales commonly told.

1. Whites were the first people on earth.
2. Blacks in slavery were only cotton pickers and maids.
3. Lincoln freed the slaves.
4. Blacks ate each other in Africa.
5. Blacks were cursed black by God.
6. The United States government has helped Blacks succeed.
7. Jews built the pyramids.
8. Blacks sold other Blacks into slavery.
9. There was no slavery in the North.
10. Columbus discovered America.


Lie #1 - Whites were the first people on earth.

As long as Mendel’s Law is in effect Whites can never be the first humans. This is the law of biology that asserts that White skin is recessive and Black skin is dominant, which means that two Whites cannot produce anything darker than themselves. This is why ALL those seeking the origin of human beings start and end in Africa. Recent genetic tests by researchers at the University of Chicago have proven that a major genetic alteration occurred exactly 6,600 years—exactly when Elijah Muhammad taught of the birth of the White race.              

The scientists say that “the selected genes, which affect skin color, hair texture and bone structure,” were drastically affected at that very moment in time. Neanderthal DNA is far more often found in Europeans and Asians than in Africans. If Neanderthals predated ALL humans, their DNA would be MOST prevalent in Africans. But not only were they first chronologically, Blacks were also the first builders of Civilization. The black-skinned Egyptians had reached a high state of civilization long before the Neanderthal—whose offspring yet wonders how and why the pyramids were built—emerged from cave life. The White-skinned nomadic Tamahu were a strange people to the Black Egyptians. They had no apparent skill except trouble-making. Little did the Egyptians know what their contact with the Tamahu would lead to.

Lie #2 - Blacks in slavery were only cotton pickers and maids.
Blacks were desired so badly by White Europeans that they were willing to build thousands of ships over hundreds of years to sail thousands of miles over treacherous ocean to start wars with those Black people to capture them, bring them back thousands of miles to enslave them forever, to serve Whites forever. Blacks had built civilizations on the African continent that Whites hoped to build in America. A close reading of the newspaper advertisements placed by American slave dealers and slave traders shows that Blacks were skilled artisans and craftsmen at the highest level. It is easy to find ads by White people selling engineers, carpenters, mechanics, brick masons, nurses, blacksmiths, seamstresses, and bakers.        


Blacks so dominated the building trades that after the so-called emancipation of 1863, it was said that if a White man were seen doing ANY of this kind of work, it would draw a crowd of gawking onlookers. Black slaves were on loan to build the “President’s House” and the Capitol; Black slaves built the mansions that grace Southern plantations. Black slave laborers built America’s infrastructure, including its buildings, roads, bridges, and railways. Blacks built America—just as they built the pyramids in Egypt—and then gave civilization to the new man on earth, the European.

Lie #3 - Lincoln freed the slaves.
Steven Spielberg may believe it but it just ain’t true. A careful reading of Lincoln’s 1863 Emancipation Proclamation proves that it freed NOT A SINGLE SLAVE! In the surprisingly short document only the slaves of “rebellious” states are ordered to be freed; those states who were loyal to America got to keep their Africans—as slaves! Thanks, Lincoln. The “Emancipation Proclamation” lists a whole slew of places to be “left precisely as if this proclamation were not issued.” At that time in history, Lincoln actually had no authority over the states where he “freed” the slaves. They were part of another country—the Confederate States of America—with an altogether different president, Jefferson Davis. Lincoln himself was never hesitant to express his hatred of Black people, like when he said: “As the negro is to the White man so is the crocodile to the negro and as the negro may rightfully treat the crocodile as a beast or a reptile so may the White man treat the negro as a beast or a reptile.” It is White historians and Hollywood mythmakers who so desperately needed to find an American Jesus to die for America’s racial sins. It is they who have made Lincoln into something he never was or wanted to be—a martyr on behalf of Black people.

Lie #4 - Blacks ate each other in Africa.
In The General History of Virginia, Captain John Smith wrote that when famine struck his new colony in Virginia in 1623 that the English settlers dug up “a savage we slew and buried … and ate him.”Another, wrote Captain Smith, was “boiled and stewed with herbs.” And another White Virginian “did kill his wife, powdered her and had eaten part of her.” And “many fed on corpses.” These White Europeans—the early pioneers of America—were feeding on Indians and each other! Themes of cannibalism have made it into European fairy tales Hansel and Gretel, Jack and the Beanstalk, and Snow White. Accusations of cannibalism were often used by Whites as justifications for the subjugation or destruction of “savages” whose land or labor they wanted to steal. Evidence of cannibalism is found in all places on earth but the place where it is most rare—Africa.

Vaughan, “Expulsion of the Salvages [sic],” William and Mary Quarterly 35, no. 1 (Jan. 1978).


Lie #5 - Blacks were cursed black by God.
The so-called Curse of Ham (or Hamitic Myth) was derived from the Biblical story of Noah (Genesis 9:21-27), and it formed the core of the racial belief system among Jews in the centuries before the time of Jesus. Even though the characters in Genesis carry no racial identity, Talmudic rabbis made up a new version of the Noah episode, in which God curses the offspring of Noah’s son Ham to be black-skinned. These Jews further say that Ham (the cursed one) is the father of the Black Race! The reason that the Jews created this extremely racist myth is an economic one. Jewish traders of the Middle Ages dominated the early slave trade, and at first did not distinguish their victims on the basis of race. Over time, the skill, intelligence, and strength of Africans were seen as more marketable than the abilities of all others, and a premium was placed on their sale. We see this today in sports. When seeking their new stars, college basketball, football, baseball, and track recruiters scour the Black inner cities, not the White suburbs. The ancient rabbis, enjoying the financial benefits of the slave trade, distorted the original story of Noah in order to justify the new racial focus on the “God-cursed” African—thus sanctifying the African-centered slave trade.
Spread far and wide as divine prophecy by the Jewish slave merchants and their beneficiaries in the clergy, slavery would ultimately be universally believed to be the lot of the Black African. Through the millennium, the so-called Curse of Ham was easily adopted by all the major religions and has been used liberally whenever circumstances required the aggressive assertion of White Supremacy.

Lie #6 - The United States government has helped Blacks succeed.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) took hundreds of known actions against Black advancement organizations during the civil rights era—including the use of agent provocateurs, saboteurs, wiretapping and the planting of false rumors and disinformation. The FBI is also a prime suspect in the murders of key Black leaders and activists. But this subversive government activity is part of a LONG HISTORY of U.S. government oppression of “non-whites” that includes the sanctioning of the slave trade and the destruction of the Indian Nations.
And though it allowed the building of a giant monument in the Nation’s Capitol to the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. in 2011, the government treated him far differently when he was alive. The long-time leader of the FBI, J. Edgar Hoover, directed that a letter be sent to the civil rights leader, pressuring him to commit suicide! The 1968 U.S. government letter was addressed to “KING”:
“You know you are … a colossal fraud and an evil, vicious one at that. You could not believe in God ... . King, like all frauds your end is approaching … . King, there is only one thing left for you to do. You know what it is . . You better take it before your filthy, abnormal fraudulent self is bared to the nation.”
Hoover, the top law enforcement official in America, was not deranged. Dr. King, with his Poor People’s Campaign and support for the Memphis Sanitation Workers Strike, was signaling his interest in pursuing an economic agenda for his people. Indeed, any Black organization or movement that adopts an economic focus and encourages Black participation in manufacturing, trade, and commerce is automatically seen as a threat to the established economic order. His murder soon followed.

Lie #7 - Jews built the pyramids.
There are hundreds of pyramids on the earth, but the Great Pyramids of Egypt are considered the first of the Seven Wonders of the World. The White-skinned Jews that now inhabit Palestine have erroneously claimed that according to the Bible their ancestors were slaves in Egypt under Pharaoh and that they built the pyramids. But several Jewish scholars like Prof. Shlomo Sand, Arthur Koestler, and others have already dealt a fatal blow to the claim that the Caucasian Jews have ANY connection whatsoever to those Hebrews of the King James Bible. These scholars have proven that the White Israelis are descendants of a tribe of Europeans called the Khazars, a 6th-century people who converted to Judaism long, long after the pyramids were built, and long after the Bible was written. And, according to Biblical scholars, the pyramids were built at least 1,000 years before there is even any mention of any Hebrews.
Shlomo Sand, a professor at Tel Aviv University in Israel, wrote a revealing book in 2008 titled The Invention of the Jewish People, wherein he states: “The ancient Egyptians kept meticulous records of every event, and there is a great deal of documentation about the kingdom’s political and military life … . Yet there is not a single mention of any ‘Children of Israel’ who lived in Egypt, or rebelled against it, or emigrated from it at any time.”

Source: Shlomo Sand, The Invention of the Jewish People (2008); Arthur Koestler, The Thirteenth Tribe: The Khazar Empire and Its Heritage (1976).


Lie #8 - Blacks sold other Blacks into slavery.
One of the most unseemly manifestations of Black self-hatred is the often violently held belief that 500 years ago Africans sold other Africans into centuries of slavery. It is erroneously believed that after thousands of years of African life, Blacks all of a sudden collapsed into internecine strife and started killing each other, selling their fellow kinsmen to foreigners for profit.
The fact is that Portuguese “explorers” mastered a pattern of European conquest that is 6,000 years old. They deliberately created mixed-race subgroups with the intention of using them to capture and enslave the native African populations. Arriving on the Cape Verde islands in the late 1400s, Jewish slave merchants kidnapped and raped African women, and the mixed-race offspring, called lançados, were raised on the islands as European Jews, practicing Judaism and respecting Jewish authority. These lançados were sent into the African mainland to set up an international “trading post” to at first market the fine fabrics being produced by the Africans. But soon they turned on their hosts and began trading in Black human beings. The lançados were strictly trained in the Jewish family business of slave-dealing. It was these half-breed, mixed-race (or mulatto) “half-ricans” who infiltrated the Black African communities, seeking to satisfy the European lust for Black labor.
Historian Walter Rodney described these “AFRICAN” slave traders thus: “Many of the private traders were mulattoes, already linked to the Africans by blood, and there were those who had become so integrated into African life that they wore tribal tattoos. It was these who were the authentic lançados, literally ‘those who had thrown themselves’ among the Africans.”

Lie #9 - There was no slavery in the NORTH.
The idea that the Northern states were against slavery is a complete falsehood. The newspapers are filled with ads buying and selling African people. The only reason that slavery was more widespread in the South was not because Northern Whites loved Black people, but because the warmer climate and flatter terrain in the South allowed for more varieties of produce to be grown in a much larger area. Simply put: the farther South one goes, the higher the concentration of Black slaves.
The early Massachusetts legislature was the first to officially welcome the African slave trade; in fact, many “proper Bostonians” built their fortunes upon that despicable enterprise. Massachusetts became America’s leading slave-ship builder and sent one expedition after another into Africa to rape, pillage, and plunder her Black humanity. Gangs of chained Africans were landed on the docks of Boston and Salem by white Massachusetts merchants and auctioned alongside hogs, lumber, and casks of cheese, destined for a life of hopeless bondage.
Slaveholders in the North were exceedingly brutal and in New York “inappropriate and disruptive kindness” was actually against the law. Any master “forgiving, making up, or compromising” with slaves was severely fined in New York. Wall Street (which has now enslaved ALL of America) was notorious in the 1600s for its African and Indian slave auctions.

Lie #10 - Columbus discovered America.
Before Christopher Columbus was commissioned to sail the ocean blue, he was sailing the ocean BLACK. That is, he was sailing the coast of Africa in the slave trade. One person who talked to Columbus said that he sounded like “a practiced slave dealer.” It is in Africa where he probably learned about the “New World” and how the ocean currents might get him there. Africans had long traded amicably with the Indigenous peoples of America. Columbus himself found evidence during his voyages that he was not the first to “discover” anything.
Columbus was told by the peoples of Espanola (Haiti) of Black men who had appeared on the island before him and they showed him the lances that they had left there. The tips of the lances were of a metal—an alloy of gold—that was prevalent in African Guinea. Columbus visited Trinidad, where the sailors noticed the colorful symmetrically patterned cotton handkerchiefs of the indigenous Indian cultures, which the Native peoples called almayzar. They were all much the same in color, style, and use as the headscarves and waistbands used in Guinea.
The 17 Olmec colossal heads of Mexico are massive sculptures crafted from large basalt boulders. The heads date from at least before 900 BC and are a distinctive feature of the Olmec civilization. All portray men with wide African noses and full African lips in apparent honor of those travelers that had visited them. In actuality, Columbus is a latecomer to the “discovery” game. His voyages were only notable for the total destruction he unleashed upon the Indigenous peoples of Africa and America.

Na jana usiku saa 5.00 TFF ilipokea ujumbe kutoka CAF kuwa mchezaji Langa Bercy ameshindwa kusafiri kwenda Cairo kwa kuwa yuko katika eneo lililoko "vitani",eneo hilo halikutajwa.
Taarifa ya TFF kwa vyombo vya Habari leo, imesema kwamba wanaendelea kufuatilia kwa karibu jambo hili ili kuhakikisha haki inatendeka .

SIMBA SC YAKUBALI KUTOA SH MILIONI 240 KUREJESHEWA OKWI


SIMBA SC imekubali kulipa dola za Kimarekani 120,000, zaidi ya Sh. Milioni 240 kwa klabu ya Sonderjiske ya Denmark ili kurejeshewa mshambuliaji wake, Mganda Emmanuel Okwi.

Na baada ya Simba SC kulipa fedha hizo, Okwi atarejea kufanya kazi Msimbazi kwa mkataba wa mwaka mmoja kwa mujibu wa makubaliano hayo.
Simba SC ilimuuza Okwi kwa dola 100,000 mwaka juzi Denmark, lakini kutokana na mchezaji huyo kutopata nafasi ya kucheza Ulaya, inaamua kumrejesha na makubaliano yamefikiwa.


Dola 120,000 tu wale jamaa wanataka watuachie Okwi. Na Okwi naye atasaini kwa mshahara tu mkataba wa mwaka huu, hatumpi dau la kusaini yeye,"kimesema chanzo kutoka Simba.  

Okwi ni mchezaji aliyeipa faida kubwa Simba ndani na nje ya Uwanja enzi zake anacheza Msimbazi. Mbali na kuwasaidia Wekundu wa Msimbazi kushinda matajii mbalimbali tangu ajiunge nao kwa mara ya kwanza mwaka 2010, Okwi pia ameinufaisha kifedha Simba SC.
Simba ilimuuza Okwi Etoile du Sahel ya Tunisia Januari mwaka 2013 kwa dau la rekodi kwa klabu za Tanzania, dola 300,000, ingawa baada ya muda akaingia kwenye mgogoro na klabu hiyo ya Tunisia.


Mtafaruku ulianza baada ya Okwi kuchelewa kurejea mjini Sousse mkoani Sahel baada ya ruhusa ya kwenda kuichezea timu yake ya taifa, Uganda.
Okwi naye akadai Etoile walikuwa hawamlipi mishahara na kufungua kesi FIFA (Shirikisho la Soka la Kimataifa), ambayo mwisho wa siku alishinda kwa kuruhusiwa kutafuta timu nyingine ya kuchezea kulinda kipaji chake, wakati wa mgogoro wake na klabu ya Tunisia.
Okwi akajiunga na SC Villa ya kwao, Kampala katikati ya mwaka 2013 na Desemba mwaka huo, akahamia Yanga SC.


Hata hivyo, Okwi akavunja Mkataba na Yanga SC Agosti waka 2014, baada ya timu hiyo ya Jangwani kushindwa kumlipa dola za Kimarekani 60,000 kama ilivyokuwa katika Mkataba baina yao na kurejea klabu yake ya zamani, Simba.

Na mapema Oktoba mwaka 2014, Simba SC nayo ilimuuza Okwi  SonderjyskE FC ya Ligi Kuu ya Denmark ambako alisaini Mkataba wa miaka mitano.
Akiwa katika mwaka wa pili wa Mkataba wake wa miaka mitano, Okwi anatarajiwa kurejea Simba tena.

Pascal Wawa kutimkia El Emerreikh inchini Sudan



Beki wa kati wa kimataifa wa Ivory Coast aliyekuwa anaichezea klabu ya Azam FC ya Dar es Slaam Tanzania Pascal Wawa, leo November 14 2016 habari zilizoenea katika mitandao ya kijamii kuhusu beki huyo ni kuwa amesaini El Emerreikh ya Sudan.
Wawa ameamua kurudi El Merreikh ya Sudan kwa kusaini mkataba wa miaka miwili wa kutumikia klabu hiyo, ambayo awali aliwahi kuichezea kwa kipindi cha miaka minne.

Pascal Wawa alijiunga na Azam FC mwaka 2014 akitokea klabu ya El Marreikh ya Sudan mwaka, na amefanikiwa  kuichezea Azam FC katika kipindi cha misimu miwili.

Wasimamizi wa kazi za Prince wamezikataa Dola milioni 40 za Jay Z


Rapper Jay Z alituma barua ya maombi  kwa uongozi wa legend wa muziki Marekani  marehemu Prince, na kuomba umiliki wa nyimbo zake ambazo mpaka kifo chake alikuwa hajazitoa. Inasemekana Jay Z alitenga dola za kimarekani milioni 40 kwa ajili ya kukamilisha deal hilo.
Baada ya kuzungumza na uongozi wa Prince umekataa kusaini deal hilo na rapper huyo, ukidai kuwa Jay Z alishawahi kuziachia albamu 15 za Prince kwenye mtandao wake wa Tidal miezi michache tu baada ya Prince kufariki bila kibali chochote, na wanaamini Jay Z aliingiza pesa ndefu hivyo kuna uwezekano wa kumfungulia rapper huyo kesi ya madai.

Hata hivyo inasemekana uongozi unaosimamia kazi za Prince unafahamu Jay Z alikubaliana na Prince kuwa atasimamia albamu yake ya “HitNRun Phase One” ya mwaka 2015 lakini hakuna nyaraka za mikataba zinazoonyesha malipo ya dolla 750,000 ambazo ndio zilipaswa kulipwa ili kufunga mkataba.

Israel Opened A Visa Handling Center In Tanzania



The Embassy of Israel in Nairobi opened a visa handling center in Dar es Salaam to strengthen bilateral relations with Tanzania.

 The official inauguration ceremony was held at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Dar es Salaam on November 4th, 2016.

 The purpose of opening the visa office is also to simplify the process for Tanzanians who wish to visit Israel.

All of the visa applications and documents of Tanzanians will be handled at the visa center by the Rickshaw Travel Group, a travel agency, whose head office is in Dar es Salaam. The Rickshaw Travel Group is a partner of the Embassy of Israel in Nairobi for managing the administrative and non-judgmental tasks of processing visa applications for the citizens of Tanzania.

Israel Tanzania Relations Formal diplomatic relations between Tanzania and Israel were first established in 1963, then suspended in 1973 due to the Arab-Israeli war, and reestablished in 1995. However, Israel still conducts its relations with Tanzania via its Embassy in Kenya and until now Tanzanians wishing to travel to Israel had to process their documents through Nairobi.

The two countries are now looking to further strengthen their relations for which Israel has opened a visa center in Tanzania.




Tanzania Secure USD160m for Water and Energy Development



Tanzania recently secured USD160m in concessional loans from the Government of South Korea for water and energy development. 

Out of the USD160m, USD110m will be directed to the construction of a new sewerage system network, a modern wastewater treatment plant and pumping station in Dar es Salaam. 

This will contribute to preventing environmental pollution created from rapid urbanization in Dar es Salaam, thereby improving public health and sanitation, Korea Exim Bank indicates. 

The remaining USD50m will assist Tanzania in the construction of power transmissions grids, which will be jointly developed with the African Development Bank (AfDB). 

The funds will be provided through the Korea Exim Bank’s Economic Cooperation Development Fund (EDCF), established by the Korean Government in 1987 to assist developing countries through the provision of long-term, low-interest credit. 

Korea Exim Bank has supported 11 development projects in Tanzania in agriculture, road, electricity, education, and health sectors, totaling USD445m in EDCF loans. “More recently, there is an increasing demand for infrastructure development in sub-Saharan African countries thanks to the end of civil wars and stable governance.

 It is also expected that the middle-income bracket will gradually grow larger. 
These factors combined are giving reason for Korean companies to look to Africa as a new land of opportunities,” Korea Exim Bank notes. 

Moreover, the South Korean Embassy in Tanzania indicates that Tanzania has been selected as one of Korea’s priority partner countries for Official Development Assistance (ODA) starting 2016 “and as a result, the Embassy looks forward to enhanced mutual cooperation with Tanzania through tailored assistance.”
