11.  Touré got his first pair of football shoes at the age of 10

A natural talent, he played football with friends and family in the streets of Abidjan from a young age. He soon followed in his older brother Kolo’s footsteps to become a key player for the local youth team, ASEC Mimosas.

12.  He is a practicing Muslim
Frequently named Man of the Match during his time in the Premier League, Touré has turned down the English tradition of champagne after league games in accordance with his religious beliefs.
 3.  He almost joined Arsenal in 2003
While playing for the Belgian team, Beveren, Touré trialed with Arsenal in 2003. While the manager was interested in signing him, he had difficulties getting a work permit to play in England. Rather than waiting, Touré took a contract with the Ukrainian team Metalurh Donetsk instead, where he played for more than a year.




14.  Both of his brothers are professional footballers
Most are familiar with older brother Kolo Touré, Yaya’s teammate both on the Côte d’Ivoire national team and Manchester City, before Kolo was transferred to Liverpool in 2013. Few may be able to name Yaya’s younger brother, Ibrahim Touré, however, who plays for Al-Safa Sporting Club in Lebanon.

15.  He’s been known to give PUMA equipment to children in West Africa
A spokesman for the athletic company Puma, Yaya has never forgotten his roots and frequently donates gear to children in need back in Côte d’Ivoire and other countries in West Africa, among his other charitable endeavors.

16.  He clashed with AS Monaco manager, László Bölöni
When Yaya moved to play for the French Ligue 1 side AS Monaco in 2006, he initially had issues with the manager, László Bölöni. Bölöni wouldn’t put Touré at the midfield position where he had played the majority of his career and proven himself. He was sacked in the middle of the season as Monaco was performing poorly.





17.  He is one of the few midfielders to win African Footballer of the Year
Before Yaya’s first African Footballer of the Year award in 2011, the previous 12 years’ awards had gone to African forwards. As forwards receive more scoring opportunities, they occupy higher-profile positions on the field and receive recognition more often.

 8.  He has a history of being targeted by racist mobs.
Yaya has commented several times on his love of playing football in England, where racist mobs targeting black players is a rare occurrence. The worst incidents occurred while he was playing in Portugal and Moscow.



19.  Touré is known for staying behind after training each day
A strong believer that practice makes perfect, Yaya stays behind after practice in order to continue to improve his free-kick technique in particular.
 10.  He is a goodwill ambassador for the U.N. Environment Program
After joining a campaign against elephant poaching in October, Yaya was named a goodwill ambassador for the U.N. and helps to raise awareness about the problem, along with other environmental issues.

Mmoja kati ya wanasayansi maarufu hapa duniani amegundua kuwa watu wanene wanapata raha zaidi katika tendo la ndoa ukilinganisha na wtu wembamba. Mwanasayansi huyo aitwaye Dr. James Watson ambaye amekwishawahi kushinda tuzo za NOBEL kwa ubingwa wake ulipelekea ugunduzi wa muundo wa DNA,anaamini kabisa kuwa watu wanene wana uwezo mkubwa wa kufurahia tendo la ndoa kuliko wembemba.

Watu wanene wanazo sababu za kibiology zinazowafanya waweze kupata raha zaidi wafanayapo tendo la ndoa. Ktk uchunguzi wake wa kemikali mbalimbali zilizomo kwenye wa mwanadamu Dr. Watson ameona kuwa mafuta ya mwili yanaongeza kemikali iitwayo ENDORPHIN inayosababisha mtu ajisike raha. 
 [HIPS%255B4%255D.jpg]
 
Kwa watu wembamba aligundua kuwa upungufu wa mafuta mwilini ulisbabisha ubongo usiapate ENDORPHINS za kutosha hivyo kupelekea kuwepo na upungufu wa raha katika tendo la ndoa. Watu wanaosema kuwa kufanya tendo la ndoa na watu wanene hakuna raha na ni kazi ngumu ni waongo kabisa. 

Ukweli ni kwamba raha ya tendo la ndoa haipungui utamu wake kutokana na unene wa mtu, bali hupungua kutokana na ukosefu wa ufundi na hofu zisizo na msingi wowote. Hofu ya kushindwa kumridhisha mwenzio siku zote lazima itakuzuia usipate raha kamili katika jambo lolote lile.

Ukosefu wa ufundi wa kufanya tendo la ndoa huleta hofu, na hata kiasi kidogo tu cha hofu huweza kusababisha mtu kushindwa kufanya tendo la ndoa kwa ufanisi na hivyo kushindwa kupata raha kamili. Dr. Helen singer ambaye ni mwanasaikolojia maarufu anasema “kama mwanamume huyu atakuwa hajui umuhimu wa kinembe kilicho sehemu ya juu ya uke akafanya tendo la ndoa na mwanamke mnene atashindwa kabisa kumridhisha mwanamke huyo. Mwanaume wa aina hiyo akishasimamisha uume wake atauingiza kwa mwanamke na harahara atapizz (kumwanga shahawa) bila kufikiria kuwa mwanamke huyo atakuwa bado hajafika kileleni".
 
Wanawake wengi wanene wameogopa kuanzisha mahusiano na wanaume kwa hofi ya kudharauliwa na hata wakifanikiwa kuanzisha uhusiano wanakuwa na wasiwasi kuwa uhenda wataachwa kwa sababu ya maumbile yao makubwa. Utawaone wanawake wanene wakivaa mavazi yasiyoleta mvuto kwa wanaume kwa sababu imani kuwa kwa sababu ya unene wao hawapendeki. Wanawake wengine wapatapo wapenzi wakati wa kufanya mapenzi hupendelea kufanya mapenzi baada ya taa kuzimwa, wanaona giza litaficha ubaya wa unene wao, jambo ambalo huondoa kujiamini na kupunguza mvuto kwa mwanaume yeyote.

Wanawake wengi wanene wanajiona kuwa hawathaminiki kwa wanaume kutokana na unene wao, hali hiyo usababisha kuharibu mvuto wao na wengi huachwa sio kwa sababu ya unene wao, bali kwa sababu ya kukosa uchangamfu utokanao na hali ya kujiamni. Mtu akiwa na historia ya kuachika anajenga hofu ya kuchika katika uhusiano wowote ule, na hofu humfanya apoteze matumaini. 

Hali ya kutokuwa na matumaini humpunguzia nguvu ya kujiboresha yeye mwenyewe na kuboresha uhusiano anaoanzisha. Iwapo wanawake wanene hawaamini kuwa wao pia wanastahili mambo mazuri zaidi, basi watabaki katika tundu lenye huzuni na msikitiko tele.

Timu ya mpira ya Barcelona ya uhispania na mabingwa watetezi wa ligi hiyo  imepigwa stop na shirikisho la soka la kandanda duniani FIFA kushiriki katika  kufanya uhamisho wa mchezahi yeyote kwa kipindi cha misimu miwili ya usajili mpaka hapo June 2015.

Hii inatokana na  mara baada ya timu hiyo kugundulika ya kwamba imekuwa ikikiuka  taratibu za uhamisho kwa wachezaji chini ya miaka 18 wasiokuwa wazaliwa wa uhispania.
Lionel Messi mmoja katijka ya wacheaji waiosajiliwa wakiwa na umri mdogo, akiwa na miaka 13

Timu hiyo na shirikisho la soka la nchi hiyo vyote kwa pamoja wamekutwa kukiuka taratibu hizo kwa kipindi cha kuanzia mwaka 2009 hadi 2013 na hivyo shirikisho hilo kusubiria adhabu yake pia.

Katika uchunguzi huo ulifanywa dhidi ya baadhi ya wachezaji wenye umri mdogo waliosajiliwa na timu hiyo na kushirikia baadhi ya michuano kwa kipindi toka 2009 hadi 2013.

Katika uchunguzi uliochukua takirbani mwaka mzima, maofisa wa FIFA wamegundua ya kwamba timu hiyo imekuwa ikikiuka taratibu zinapaswa kufuatwa katika uhamisho wa wachezaji wa kigeni.

Wachezaji wa kimataifa walio chini ya miaka 18  wanaovuka mipaka huwa wanapaswa kusajiliwa kwa kufuata taratibu maalumu na chini ya taratibu maalumu za ziada.

Wiki moja kabla ya kusitishwa huduma za programu ya kompyuta (OS) ya Windows Xp, imefahamika kuwa waathirika wakubwa watakuwa ni benki na taasisi za fedha ambazo hutumia mfumo huo katika mashine za kutolea fedha (ATMs) Shirika la Microsoft limethibitisha kuwa benki ni miongoni mwa taasisi nyingi zitakazoathirika na mabadiliko hayo.
Mfano wa Windows XP

Baadhi zimeanza kufanyia kazi tatizo hilo, ikiwamo benki moja ambayo jana alasiri ilituma ujumbe kwa wateja wake kuwa, “Ndugu mteja, kuanzia Jumamosi saa 2:00 usiku Aprili 5, mpaka Jumapili saa 12:00 asubuhi tutakuwa tunaboresha mashine zetu za ATM, hivyo kadi yako haitafanya kazi kwa kipindi hiki. Asante.”

Kwa mujibu wa Microsoft asilimia kubwa ya benki katika nchi zinazoendelea zinatumia programu ya Windows XP katika kuendesha ATM, hivyo kuwa moja ya waathirika wa mpango huo.

Katikati ya Machi, Microsoft ilitangaza kusitisha huduma zote zinazohusiana na bidhaa zake za Windows Xp kufikia Aprili 8, mwaka huu. Pia shirika hilo litasitisha ufanisi wa programu ya kuzuia na kupambana na virusi ya Microsft Security Essentials katika mfumo wa Windows Xp, hivyo kufanya urahisi wa kompyuta zinazoitumia kukosa ulinzi.

Mkurugenzi wa Kampuni ya Twiga Hosting, Jacob Urassa alisema Watanzania hawatakiwi kupuuza onyo hilo kwa kuwa ikifika Aprili 9 usalama wa taarifa zao utakuwa hatarini.

“Windows XP ni dhaifu mara tano zaidi ya Windows 7 na 8, kwa hiyo Microsoft wameona ni bora wakaitoa sokoni. Kwa maana hiyo ATM na kompyuta zote zinazotumia programu hizo hazitakuwa na ulinzi wa uhakika,” alisema Urassa ambaye ni mtaalamu wa masuala ya Teknolojia ya Mawasiliano (IT).

Alisema kuwa kuna idadi kubwa sana ya Watanzania wanaoendelea kutumia bidhaa hizo zikiwemo taasisi kubwa nchini hivyo kuna haja kubwa ya kuchukua hatua za kubadilika na teknolojia.

Naye, Ofisa Uhusiano wa Benki ya Posta, Noves Moses aliwatoa wasiwasi wateja wake kuwa licha ya kusitishwa kwa matumizi ya Windows XP, bado benki hiyo itaendelea kutoa huduma zenye kiwango kile kile.
