Mtaji wa masikini ni nguvu zake mwenyewe.

Kijana huyu wa Bujumbura, Burundi anaonekana akitekeleza hili kwa msisitizo.

Jua kali lakini yupo ngangari kinoma.

Tunahitaji nguvu ya ziada kuhakikisha nguvu za vijana zinatumika kikamilifu kujenga nchi na sio kujenga katumbo.

Nigeria: Has a New Acting Head of State

At last... Nigerian Parliament has endorsed Mr. Goodluck Jonathan (above photo), who was a vice president to take over presidential office duties and commander in chief of Nigerian forces after prolonged illness of the incumbent president of Federal Republic of Nigeria Umaru Yar'Adua who is still in Saudi Arabia since November 2009 where he went there for heart treatment.

There was under the carpet fracas following his absence, and uncertainity of his coming back and at one time rumours that he was dead triggers some fear of chaotic moves especially at oil-rich Delta area.

In recent days, some members of parliament went to Saudi Arabia to visit his excellency Nigerian President. No clear information has been given on his ill-health status.

Body Found in Delta Airlines Aircraft

A body of a man was recovered from the landing gear from Delta aircraft travelling from New York to Tokyo.

The body was discovered by maintanance worker in the landing gear storage compartment which usually has a room enough to fit a human being.
Japanese airport police said that there were no any injury to the body except some traces of frostbite suspected to occurs while the aircraft was airborne

There were no any identification or baggage with the body, therefore Japanese authorities has appealed before US authorities to assist in identification.

This is not the first time people to be found dead in the landing gear compartment in particular to the stowaways. Lack of oxygen and freezing temperatures are the main causes of deaths to "such mode of travelling"

My question is ..... how does these people manage to board unnoticed!!

Jamani! Ebu Tuwe "Serious" Kidogo

Wikend iliyopita nilienda Dar Kusalimia ndugu jamaa na marafiki. Muhimu kuliko yote ilikuwa kusalimia familia.

Wakati naondoka nilipewa zawadi ya keki i kiwa kwenye vipande vidogovidogo na ikiwa imefungwa kwa unadhifu kabisa.

Nilipofika Mtaani kwangu huku, niliitoa, kwa mshangao nilikuta imeandikwa tarehe ya mwisho wa matumizi kuwa ni 31 Februari 2010. Nasema nimeshangaa kwa sababu najua mwezi wa Februari huwa ni mfupi, ukizidi sana unakuwa na siku 29. Na kamwe hauna tarehe 30 au 31!

Pamoja na kuwa keki hizi zilikuwa nzuri sana, lakini zinaweza kumtia wasiwasi mlaji kwa kutokuwa na imani ya ubora au mtengenezaji.

Wanasema kwenye masuala ya misosi hakuna dogo...

Gonga picha kama unataka kuona kwa uwazi zaidi hiyo tarehe.

Kenya: Beware of Nutty Boys!!

It was reported today that in Rift Valley area,Kenya. A 14 years old girl was killed by a hand grenade when she was given as a gift to take to her mother, and she was instructed to put it at her mother's belongings.

But the curious girl decided to open and see what was inside in the wrapped "gift" shortly after she left the "good and cheerful giver". What followed was a big BOOOOOOM, and she was wounded badly and died later.

It was said that her brother gave her that hand grenade as a gift to the mother. But earlier, the brother had a quarel with the mother, therefore he decided to finish the fight in that way. But very sad, the innocent girl was killed.

The boy is now under police custody for investigations!

Umh! Life is so cheap in some areas in Kenya!!!

Nigeria lost to Ghana in African cup Championship Tournament

Timu ya Taifa ya Nigeria, Super Eagles imepata kipigo cha bao 1 - 0 kutoka kwa timu ya Ghana, Black Stars kwenye mchezo ambao Nigeria ilicheza vizuri zaidi kuliko Ghana.

Goli pekee la Ghana lilifungwa na Gyan kwa kichwa kufuatia mpira wa kona.

Lakini siku ya nyani kufa ..... Nigeria itabidi wajilaumu wenyewe, kama jinsi Zambia walivyojilaumu walipotolewa na Nigeria kwenye robo fainali.

Dont Make Yourself Idiot. Think First......

Today, I remembered events which made me laughs out of anger!!

15 years ago when mobile phones were not popular in my locality I went to one of the famous telephone company to report frequent cut on my land line telephone.
I was tired to fill request forms and I had to be open on my critics.
The officer was very keen and asked me my number. I gave him with nasty look and he recorded it.

With sympathy and concern, he promised to call me when he had a technician available!!

I was looking for an imaginary hammer to fix the lost nut in his brain, that made me laugh at him. He was puzzled by my immediate change of mood. I will not say what I curse him in my brain



This also remind me back in school in one of the rainy days where our class teacher asked us to leave the classroom during the break time and locked himself in the class. I was bitter because I wanted to stay in the classroom to chew my nice bun I kept from home and read a religious book I borrowed from my neighbour at home.

After the break, we went back and found our teacher still locked himself while marking some scripts. He came to open the door for us, but he did not produce the key, and he asked us if anybody has taken the key!!!
We end up with loud whispering, it look like ..... were saying IDIOT, but I could not get it well, because I was smilling!

Bujumbura at a Glance

Bujumbura, the capital city of Burundi, is rather small, cheaper and peaceful.
Ukiondoa Miji ya Tanzania na Mombasa, Bujumbura ni mji unaofuatia kwa kuongea kiswahili zaidi kuliko miji mingine mingi ya Afrika Mashariki.
Kiingereza ni nadra kukuta watu wakiongea, ila kifaransa kina mizizi zaidi, si ajabu kukutana na wafanyabiashara wanao ongea kiswahili, lakini pale unapotaka kulipa wakakutajia kiasi cha pesa za kulipa kwa kifaransa, wakishindwa kutamka kwa kiswahili hizo namba, na hasa wakijua umetoka Tz, inakuwa taabu, maana wamezoea namba zinazotamkwa ki-Congo, kama thelathini itatamkwa makumi tatu, sabini watasema makumi saba.

Mbali ya barabara za katikati ya mji kuwa safi, lakini hazina taa, utakuta milingoti ya taa imejaa, lakini yote haina taa kama baranara hii maarufu ya UPRONA ambako kuna ofisi kadhaa za ubalozi haina hata taa moja ya barabarani

Kuna majengo machache mapya, na mengine yanaendelea kujengwa.

Maisha ya Bujumbura ni nafuu kidogo ukilinganisha na Kigali - Rwanda. Kwa wastani gharama za maisha Bujumbura ni kama nusu hivi ya Kigali.

Hoteli nzuri zipo, lakini sio nyingi sana.

Niliyoipenda sana ni Lake Tanganyika Hotel (Hotel Club du Lac Tanganyika)

Ipo mwambao wa Ziwa Tanganyika, ina mandhari nzuri na pwani safi yenye mchanga mweupe. Milima ya Congo inaonekana kwa mbali kwenye ng'ambo ya pili.

Kama kawaida wapenzi wa samaki hapo tulifaidi hasa. Nilijipatia samak aitwaye Captain, sikuwahi kumuona kabla!

Ziwa Tanganyika ambalo sehemu kubwa lipo Tanzania, ni ziwa linalosifika kwa kuwa ni moja ya maziwa yenye kina kirefu duniani, pia ndio refu kuliko yote duniani likiwa na urefu wa karibu km 600, na pia linasemekana lina hifadhi maji kiasi cha wastani wa 15% (1/6)ya maji baridi (fresh water) yote duniani. Pia ndilo hasa chimbuko la mto Nile.

Pia niliduwaa kidogo kukuta matangazo ya vivutio vya Tanzania ambapo wanao utaratibu wa kuwaleta wageni kutembelea mbuga za wanyama na vivutio vingine vya Tanzania.

Wabongo mpoooo. Mpaka mtangaziwe eeeh!

Enjoy your weekend!!!

Tafakari ya Wikiendi

Wakati wa sikukuu za Krismas, mimi na familia yangu tulienda kupumzika Laki Kivu Serena Hotel. Nitatoa picha za mandhari nzuri ya huko baadaye.

Huwa mimi ni mpenzi wa kuangalia michoro au sanaa zozote kwa kuzitafakari.

Key holder hii ilinichukulia muda wangu kuitafakari, na niliweza kupata mapumziko ya fikara nyingine za kazi na uchovu kwa kukaa naitafakari hii sanamu ya huyu nyani wa milimani (mountain gorilla).

Nakupa nawe tafakari ya wikiendi.

USA: Made the Haiti Quake?!

I receive a circulating email, probably originate from one of Middle East countries claiming that the Haiti quake is a man made activities.

They accuse USA to be behind it. They further claim that this was one of the major failure in weapon testing which was intended to attack Iran!

They gave a lot of evidences regarding some previous quakes which were man-made, they further claims that those man made quakes caused serious disasters!
