Tofauti ya kuwa na virusi vya Ukimwi na kuwa na Ukimwi

Wasomaji wengi wa safu hii wamekuwa wakiniuliza nini tofauti kati ya kuwa na virusi vya Ukimwi na mtu kuwa na Ukimwi.Ukweli ni kwamba kuna tofauti kati ya mtu mwenye virusi vya Ukimwi na yule ambaye ana Ukimwi, jambo ambalo wengi hawalijui.

Mtu anapokuwa ameambukizwa virusi vya Ukimwi haanzi kuugua mara moja na badala yake huweza kuishi na virusi hivyo kwa muda mrefu hata zaidi ya miaka 10 bila kuonesha dalili zozote.

Tofauti yake na mtu mwenye Ukimwi ni kwamba huyu ambaye anatajwa kuwa anao dalili za magonjwa nyemelezi hujitokeza haraka kutokana na kinga yake ya mwili kupungua kupita kiasi kutokana na kuharibiwa na virusi.

Magonjwa ambayo yatajitokeza ni pamoja na kuharisha, kuvimba tezi mbalimbali mwilini mwake hasa shingoni, kukohoa, kutokwa na malengelenge ya neva za ngozi au kupatwa na mkanda wa jeshi au kuwa na utando mweupe mdomoni.

Hata hivyo, siyo kila anayeumwa maradhi hayo tuliyoyataja hapo juu ni mwathirika wa Ukimwi, hujulikana kuwa ameathirika baada ya kupimwa na kuthibitishwa kwa vipimo.

MTU ANAAMBUKIZWAJE UKIMWI?
Bahati nzuri wengi siku hizi wanajua jinsi Ukimwi unavyoambikizwa. Kuna njia nyingi za mtu kuweza kuambukizwa Ukimwi lakini hapa kuna nne muhimu.

Virusi vya Ukimwi huishi kwenye majimaji kama vile yale yaliyo sehemu za siri za mwanamke, mbegu za kiume, maziwa ya mama, majimaji ya vidonda, usaha, damu na kadhalika.

Lakini majimaji haya huhitaji njia ya kupita ili maambukizi yatokee. Hivyo basi, mtu anaweza kuambukizwa VVU akiguswa na majimaji ya mwenye Ukimwi kupitia kujaamiiana kwa njia ya kawaida na kinyume cha maumbile au kwa njia ya mdomo (oral sex), hasa kama atakuwa amechubuka sehemu za siri.

Pili, mama mzazi anaweza kumuambukiza mtoto wake Ukimwi wakati akiwa tumboni, wakati wa kujifungua au akiwa anamnyonyesha.

Tatu, mtu anaweza kuambukizwa Ukimwi kwa kupewa damu iliyo na Virusi Vya Ukimwi (VVU) na nne kwa kuchangia sindano au nyembe ambazo zimetumika na mtu mwenye maambukizo.

Takwimu zilizotolewa na Mpango wa Taifa wa Kudhibiti Ukimwi zinaonesha kuwa maambukizi kwa njia ya kujamiiana na mtu mwenye maambukizi ni asilimia 82.1. Maambukizi kutoka kwa mama kwenda kwa mtoto kwa njia ya kunyonyesha au wakati wa kujifungua ni asilimia 5.9.

Wanaopata maambukizi kutokana na kuongezewa damu yenye virusi vya Ukimwi ni asilimia 0.3 wakati wanaokumbwa na maradhi hayo kwa njia nyingine kama vile kuchangia sindano, nyembe ni asilimia 1.7. na wale ambao wanapata Ukimwi bila kufahamu chanzo ni asilimia 10.

Ni vyema wasomaji wakafahamu njia ambazo haziambukizi kabisa Ukimwi. Mtu hawezi kuambukizwa kwa kuumwa na mbu au kwa kupiga chafya au kukohoa kunakofanywa na mwenye virusi vya Ukimwi.

Mtu hapati maradhi hayo kwa kula, kulala kitanda kimoja, kuogelea bwawa moja, kutumia vikombe au sahani moja kwa chakula au kuchangia choo na mtu mwenye virusi vya Ukimwi.

USHAURI
Mtu aliye na Ukimwi inatakiwa apate mahitaji muhimu ya lishe na jamii ifundishwe kuachana na tabia ya kuwanyanyapaa au kudhani kuwa aliye na Ukimwi ni mzinifu au amekosa maadili.

Zari ahofia kuishi Bongo!

Stori: MUSA MATEJA, WIKIENDA
Dar es Salaam: Ubuyu! Tumbuatumbua ya majipu ya Rais wa Awamu ya Tano, Dk. John Pombe Magufuli ‘JPM’ inadaiwa kumtisha mwandani wa Mwanamuziki Nasibu Abdul ‘Diamond Platnumz’, Zarinah Hassan ‘Zari The Boss Lady’ kuja kuishi Bongo ikidaiwa kisa ni utajiri mkubwa alionao wenye shaka juu ya malipo ya ushuru na mapato.

Habari kutoka kwenye chanzo cha ndani cha familia ya Diamond, zimeeleza kuwa Zari alikuwa na mpango wa kuhamishia miradi na makazi yake rasmi Dar mwanzoni mwa mwaka 2016 lakini ndoto hiyo inaonekana kuyeyuka.

Chanzo hicho kilieleza kuwa, familia ya Diamond imekuwa ikimshinikiza jamaa huyo amshawishi Zari kuwekeza Bongo lakini kwa sasa mpango huo umefutika kwani mwanadada huyo anaogopa kutumbuliwa majipu.

“Unajua Zari anafuatilia kila kitu kinachoendelea nchini. Kwa hiyo usidhani hajui mambo ya TRA (Mamlaka ya Mapato) yalivyochachamaa.
“Unajua anasema akihamia Bongo itabidi aingize nchini yale magari yake ya kifahari anayotembelea akiwa Sauz (Afrika Kusini) au Uganda lakini anahofia tumbua majipu ya Magufuli.

“Wewe fikiria kama lile Range (Rover) la Wema (Sepetu) limekamatwa na TRA, itashindikana nini kukamata Hummer au Lamborghini ya Zari?

“Nafikiri ishu ni utajiri wake. Nilishasoma kwenye vyombo vya habari vya Uganda kuwa utajiri wake wa ghafla umekuwa ukiibua sana maswali na yeye huwa hapendi kuzungumzia vyanzo vya utajiri wake,” kilinyetisha chanzo chetu.

Baada ya kumwagiwa ubuyu huo, mwanahabari wetu alithibitisha kuwa kweli Zari hayupo Bongo yupo Sauz hivyo alimsaka Diamond ambaye alikuwa na haya ya kusema: “Zari ana miradi mingi, muda wa kuwekeza Bongo ukifika atakuja kufanya hivyo.

uhusu mheshimiwa (Magufuli) mimi nampongeza kwa kutumbua majipu kwa sababu tulikuwa tunahitaji kiongozi kama yeye,” alisema Diamond na kuongeza kuwa mpango wa Zari wa kuja kuishi Dar upo palepale.

“ Nawaomba ndugu zangu watanzania tuzingatie usafi ili kuzuia mazalia ya mbu kwani ugonjwa huu unatokana na virusi vinavyoenezwa na mbu na hao mbu wanapatikana sana nyakati za asubuhi mchana na jioni hivyo nawasihi kutumia dawa za kuua mbua na vyandarua wakati wa kulala.”

Wema Chini ya Ulinzi

STORI: Mwandishi Wetu, Risasi Jumamosi

DAR ES SALAAM: Mama kijacho Wema Abraham Sepetu ‘Madam’ kwa mara nyingine ametengeneza kichwa cha habari, safari hii amewekwa chini ya ulinzi wa polisi kwa kosa la kuendesha gari aina ya Range Rover Evogue bila kuwa na vibali, Risasi Jumamosi lina ‘full’ stori.

Tukio hilo lililodumu kwa takriban saa tatu lilijiri Jumanne iliyopita maeneo ya Aficana, Mbezi Beach jijini Dar wakati mrembo huyo alipokuwa ‘kiguu na njia’ kwenda kwenye bethidei ya rafiki yake aliyefahamika kwa jina la Kibadude.

NI LILE ALILODAI KUJIZAWADIA

Kwa mujibu wa chanzo makini kilichokuwepo eneo la tukio, gari hilo alilokamatwa nalo Madam ni lile alilojizawadia kwa mbwembwe nyingi mwishoni mwa mwaka jana katika siku yake ya kuzaliwa ambalo lina thamani ya shilingi milioni 200 za Kibongo.

“Nimepiga picha. Wamemtaiti hapa Mbezi Africana, naona maofisa wa TRA wanamhoji. Lina tatizo katika uhalali wa kuingia nchini. Hapa sasa naona wanaomhenyesha ile mbaya. Si kawaida.”

AMWAGA CHOZI

“Sasa namuona Madam machozi yanamtoka yenyewe… anahaha, mara aende huku mara kule. Nahisi so litakuwa limemkalia vibaya maana kila simu anayopiga hapati msaada,” kilinyetisha chanzo hicho.

TRA WABAINI FIGISUFIGISU

Gazeti hili lilizungumza na ofisa mmoja wa TRA ambaye alikuwepo kwenye tukio hilo aliyeomba hifadhi ya jina kwa kuwa si msemaji wa mamlaka hiyo aliweka wazi kuwa, walibaini figisufigisu katika gari hilo.

“Hili gari ni moja kati ya magari ambayo yanaingia nchini kutokea nchi ya Msumbiji. Hata namba zake za usajili zinaonesha hivyo. Sasa huwa yanakatiwa vibali vya miezi mitatu au kulipiwa ushuru na kununuliwa. Liliingia nchini tangu mwaka jana.

“Tumekuta halina vibali maana vibali vya miezi mitatu vimeisha, tumemuuliza atoe nyaraka za gari, anasema zipo nyumbani, tukamwambia twende huko nyumbani ukazitoe, akabadili lugha, akasema anazo Steve (Nyerere). Inaonekana hili gari lina matatizo makubwa ya ushuru,” alisema ofisa huyo.

FIGISU NYINGINE

Kumbukumbu zinaonesha gari hilohilo la Wema ambalo alisema amejinunulia kwa fedha zake, ndilo alilodaiwa kununuliwa na mbunge machachari wa Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) ambaye aliwahi pia kutajwa kuwa ndiye baba kijacho wake kabla ya Idris Sultan kuibuka na kujinadi kuwa ndiye ‘mmiliki’ halali wa tumbo hilo.

KIGOGO SERIKALINI AMUOKOA

Paparazi wetu alimtafuta mtu wa karibu kabisa na Wema ambaye alieleza kuwa, Madam baada ya kuhaha kwa muda mrefu eneo hilo huku akiwa chini ya ulinzi wa polisi wenye bunduki, alipata wazo la kumpigia kigogo mmoja serikalini (jina tunalo) ambaye alimpa msaada kwa masharti.

“Alimpigia simu… (anataja jina la kigogo), akamweleza matatizo yaliyomkuta, naye akazungumza na maofisa wa TRA, wakakubaliana kwa masharti kwamba asilitumie gari hilo ndani ya wiki moja mpaka apeleke vibali vya gari hilo,” alisema mtu huyo wa karibu na Wema.

HUENDA LIKATAIFISHWA KAMA LA WOLPER

Kwa mujibu wa taratibu na sheria za TRA, endapo Wema atashindwa kutoa nyaraka muhimu za gari hilo hatua za kisheria zitachukuliwa dhidi yake ikiwa ni pamoja na  kutaifishwa kwa gari hilo kama ilivyomtokea mwigizaji Jacqueline Wolper ambaye mwaka 2014, gari lake aina ya BMW X6 lilikamatwa na kutaifishwa kwa kushindwa kulipia ushuru na kukosa vibali halali.

WEMA ASAKWA

Baada ya kupewa taarifa hizo, gazeti hili lilimtafuta Wema kwenye simu yake ya mkononi lakini muda wote iliita bila kupokelewa na hata alipotumiwa ujumbe mfupi, hakujibu.

MENEJA WA WEMA ANENA

Alipoulizwa kuhusu suala hilo, meneja wa msanii huyo, Martin Kadinda alisema yeye alisikia kwa watu kuhusu taarifa za Madam kukamatwa na gari hilo lakini alipomuuliza alimwambia si kweli, ni uzushi tu na hata gari hilo lipo nyumbani aende kuliona jambo ambalo alilifanya na kweli akajionea gari hilo.

“Ni uzushi tu. Nimeongea na Madam, akanihakikishia kwamba hamna kitu kama hicho. Nikaenda kulitazama gari, nikalikuta nyumbani kwake Ununio, shwari kabisa,” alisema Martin.

Gazeti ndugu na hili, Amani, toleo la Alhamisi iliyopita, ukurasa wa nyuma kulikuwa na habari yenye kichwa; Range la Wema layeyuka. Msingi wa habari hiyo ni taarifa kuwa, Wema haonekani akiwa na gari hilo licha ya kujinadi kuwa ni lake. Amekuwa akitumia kigari kidogo ‘ki-kirikuu’ kuendea kwenye shughuli zake.

Ilidaiwa kuwa, Wema alilipeleka gereji au yadi ya kuuzia magari, gari hilo hali iliyowafanya mapaparazi wa OFM kulisaka bila mafanikio huku ikielezwa kuwa, gari hilo si lake bali huwa anapepewa kwa muda kujiachia nalo.

Wafungwa jela maisha kwa kusafirisha ‘unga’

By Daniel Mjema, Mwananchi

Moshi. Mahakama Kuu imewahukumu kifungo cha maisha jela, watu wawili baada ya kupatikana na hatia katika kesi mbili tofauti za kusafirisha dawa za kulevya zenye thamani ya Sh289.2 milioni.

Washtakiwa hao waliohukumiwa jana na Jaji Mfawidhi wa Mahakama Kuu, Kanda ya Moshi, Aishiel Sumari ni Hamis Suya, mkazi wa mkoa wa Tanga na Josephine Mumbi Waithera, raia wa Kenya.

Josephine alikuwa akishtakiwa kwa kusafirisha gramu 3,249.82 za dawa hizo aina ya heroini zenye thamani ya Sh146.2 milioni kwenda Vienna, Austria kupitia Uwanja wa Ndege wa Kilimanjaro (Kia) wakati Suya alikamatwa akisafirisha gramu 3,191.3 za heroini zenye thamani ya Sh143 milioni kwenda jijini Arusha kwa Basi la Happy Nation.

Akitoa hukumu dhidi ya Suya, Jaji Sumari alisema upande wa mashtaka umeithibitishia Mahakama bila kuacha shaka kuwa

alikutwa na dawa hizo.

Alisema hakuna ubishi kuwa tembe 249 za heroini zikiwa ndani ya begi kwenye basi hilo lililokuwa likisafiri kati ya Dar es Salaam na Arusha Novemba 27, 2012 zilikuwa za mshtakiwa huyo.

“Hoja hapa ilikuwa nani ni mmiliki wa begi lile kati ya washtakiwa hawa watatu, yaani Mussa Mgonja, Suya na Abdulaziz Makuka, lakini kulikuwa hakuna ubishi begi la dawa zile lilikutwa ndani ya basi,” alisema Jaji Sumari. Alisema kitendawili hicho kiliteguliwa na maelezo ya Suya aliyoandika polisi na kukiri kosa hilo na kuwa aliyatoa kwa hiari yake bila kulazimishwa.

Testimony of Kenyan woman attacked by boyfriend with a hammer in Kansas

Posted by Jambo 

Elizabeth Kogo’s Testimony 5 yrs After Her Tragic Story that made National News in America

By Pastor Boniface Gitau

On January 23^rd, 2011 a quiet neighborhood in Wichita, Kansas was struck by a tragic attempted homicide that caused chills to the residents that witnessed the aftermath or saw the news in the media. That afternoon, a young woman was fighting for her life after a vicious attack.

She was rushed to the hospital in a coma; the doctors tried all they could to save her life but gave up after failed resuscitation attempts. When all hope was lost, her mother in Kenya was sent documents to sign her off life support. But thank God for the tenacity of her loving caring mother who pleaded to God for the life of her precious daughter. She refused to sign the papers and believed God for a miracle.

This is the true story of Elizabeth Kogo whom God literally delivered her life from the jaws of death. It has now been 5 years since her dreadful attack. Although she still deals with the effects of TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) and disabilities caused by the hammer that was lodged on her head, her resilient spirit has kept her going. She has defied all odds and through her determination and trust in God she went back to college to pursue a degree in social work at Wichita State University. She recently received a scholastic honor for her excellent academic achievement. Her hard work is finally paying off; she is set to graduate this Spring.

What is even more amazing about Elizabeth’s testimony is that nothing has deterred her from single handedly raising her son Florian as an unemployed full time student.

By God’s grace, she recently published a book, Delivered from the Jaws of Death. She talks about what exactly happened and the signs she overlooked that led her to stay in an abusive relationship. Her testimony is powerful and astounding. God has brought her this far to share with others her miraculous story of victory and triumph despite her tragedy. Her dreams may have been crushed but not shattered. At the point of death is where she found Jesus who restored her life and gave her an unspeakable joy, peace and divine purpose in life.

Elizabeth believes that indeed all things, even the bad things in life, work together for the good of those who love God. She has chosen to use her experiences to making a difference in the lives of others. Elizabeth still lives in Wichita, Kansa. She believes God will resurrect and fulfill her dreams in the same city where she almost lost her life. It takes great courage to confront one’s fears like she does. Reading her full storydocumented in her new book will inspire your faith in God who works wonders and miracles in the midst of the storms you may encounter.

Kwa hali hii Nchi inaliwa!

Makongoro oging’, AMANI

DAR ES SALAAM: Da! Wakati Rais John Pombe Magufuli ‘JPM’ akiendelea kutumbua majipu kwa vigogo mbalimbali serikalini, hasa wanaotuhumiwa kwa ufisadi, Amani limenasa vigogo wengine wanne wa Mamlaka ya Mapato Tanzania (TRA) ambao wamejenga mahekalu ya mabilioni ya shilingi huku wakiishi maisha ya juu kama ‘miungu watu’, kweli nchi inaliwa! Awali, mahekalu mengine yaliyosemekana kuwa ni ya vigogo wa mamlaka hiyo, yalinaswa na kutolewa kwenye gazeti hili.

CHANZO CHAZUNGUMZA NA AMANI
Mapema wiki hii, chanzo chetu cha habari kilifika kwenye ofisi za gazeti hili na kuonana na wahariri wa Global Publishers kulalamikia maisha ya baadhi ya vigogo wa TRA kwamba ni ya anasa sana wakiwa wanaishi kwenye mahekalu (majumba) ya kifahari huku Watanzania walio wengi wanaishi kwa mlo mmoja tena kulala kwa kubanana.

MSIKIE MWENYEWE
“Jamani ndugu zangu, lengo la mimi kuja hapa ni kutaka kuwaambia kwamba, kuna vigogo wa TRA wanaishi Mbezi Beach. Wamejenga majumba ya kifahari. Wanamiliki magari ya kisasa, lakini najua pesa zao ni za ufisadi.

“Nimekuwa nikifuatilia kwenye vyombo vya habari ili kuona kama kuna siku watawekwa hadharani lakini wapi! Naamini serikali haijawajua. Wale wakifuatiliwa, watabainika namna walivyoitafuna hii nchi na ndiyo maana wanaishi kwa kuabudiwa hata na viongozi wa serikali ya mtaa.”

KWENYE VIKAO WANATUMA WAWAKILISHI
“Sisi wenye vijumba vya kujenga miaka saba havijaisha tunajisikia vibaya sana. Ni majirani zetu lakini hatuonani. Wakitoka nje ya mageti yao wamo ndani ya magari yenye tinted. Wananuka pesa hata familia zao. Wanaogopwa mtaani.

“Siku kukiwa na kikao cha serikali ya mtaa kuzungumzia mambo ya maendeleo wanatuma wadogo zao, shemeji zao, wengine wanatuma hata mahausigeli. Hivi ni haki kweli jamani?!”

KUONEKANA KWAO
“Mimi nimewahi kuwaona wawili tu kwa nyakati tofauti, walikuwa wana shida kwenye ofisi za serikali ya mtaa. Kusema ule ukweli nchi hii inaliwa sana. Kama kila mmoja angefanya mambo kulingana na kipato chake halali, taifa lingekuwa mbali sana. Lakini watu wanaiibia serikali kwa ajili ya kujitajirisha na familia zao,” alisema mtoa habari huyo.

KUNA DOGO WA MIAKA 27 NAYE
Wakati mtoa habari wetu akihitimisha hivyo, vyanzo vingine vya habari vimesema kuwa, kijana wa miaka 27 (jina linahifadhiwa kwa sasa), mfanyakazi wa kawaida (kama ‘mfagizi’) wa TRA anamiliki jumba la kifahari lenye vyumba vya kulala 10, sebule 2, vyoo vya umma vitatu, sehemu ya kulia chakula 2 huku msingi wa nyumba ukiwa na urefu wa nyumba nyingine.

“Huyu dogo ana miaka kama 27 tu, lakini anamiliki jengo la kifahari huko Goba. Maisha yake kwa ujumla ni ya kutumbua raha. Kumbe hawa jamaa wa TRA wana pesa sana. Mimi sikuwahi kufikiria. Sasa kwa nini walimu na polisi wanahangaika namna hii?” alihoji mtoa habari wetu.

AMANI LASAKA UKWELI
Baada ya kunyetishiwa ubuyu huo, mapaparazi wetu walizama mtaani ili kujiridhisha. Ilibidi mapaparazi wetu wamtafute Mwenyekiti wa Serikali ya Mtaa wa Mbezi Beach, Pantaleo Mushi ambaye alikiri kuwa, baadhi ya nyumba katika eneo hilo ni za wafanyakazi wa TRA.

“Ni kweli baadhi ya nyumba za mtaa wangu ni za watu wa TRA, lakini hayo mengine siyafahamu kabisa. Ila kama mnataka kujua zaidi, nendeni wenyewe. Maisha ya watu ni utaratibu wao wenyewe, wanavyoishi ni vile watakavyo,” alisema.

Amani: “Vipi lakini, kukiwa na vikao vya serikali za mtaa wanajitokeza?”
Mwenyekiti: “Wanafika…wanafika.”
Amani: “Mbona tunasikia wanatuma wawakilishi?”
Mwenyekiti: “Labda wanapokuwa na udhuru.”

Mfano wa mikoko wanayomiliki.

KIJANA NA AMANI
Baada ya kuzungumza na mwenyekiti huyo, juzi, saa 5:28 asubuhi, gazeti hili lilimpigia simu kijana huyo ambapo baada ya mwandishi kujitambulisha jina na chombo cha habari, alikata simu.

ILIVYOKUWA IKIJULIKANA
Baadhi ya watu waliozungumza na Amani kuhusu vigogo wa TRA kujenga majumba ya kifahari maeneo ya Mbezi Beach walisema kuwa, awali waliamini kwamba, nyumba za maeneo hayo nyingi ni za wafanyabiashara na Wazungu waliweka makazi yao nchini.

“Jamani mimi nilipokuja kugundua kwamba, waliojenga Beach wengi ni jamaa wa TRA, TRL (Shirika la Reli Tanzania) na TPA (Mamlaka ya Bandari Tanzania), nilishangaa sana, zamani nilijuwa ni wafanyabiashara wakubwa na Wazungu wanaoishi nchini,” alisema Hamud Hassan Lukwu, mkazi wa Mbezi.

Akizungumza na wakazi wa Ngarenaro jijini Arusha hivi karibuni akiwa njiani kuelekea kwenye Kambi ya Jeshi Monduli, JPM alisema kuwa, mpango wake wa kutumbua majipu viongozi wa serikali ambao wanatumia pesa za umma kwa manufaa binafsi utaendelea mpaka watakapokwisha wote.

TAKUKURU WATOA NENO
Akizungumza na wanahabari jijini Dar juzi, Kaimu Mkurugenzi Mkuu wa Taasisi ya Kuzuia na Kupambana na Rushwa Tanzania (Takukuru), Valentino Mlowola alitoa onyo kwa taasisi nyeti nchini, zikiwemo zinazohusika na matumizi ya fedha za umma kufuata sheria, taratibu na kanuni.

Mlowola alisema kumekuwepo na malalamiko mengi kwa wananchi kuwajulisha matendo ya rushwa na ufisadi yanayoendelea hapa nchini.
Alisema kutokana na hali ya wananchi kuona nia ya serikali ya awamu ya tano katika kushughulikia matatizo ya rushwa na ufisadi ametoa onyo kwa maofisa wa umma wanaofanya rushwa na ufisadi kuwa sehemu yao ya kazi na miradi ya kuwaingizia kipato kuacha mara moja.
