Na Mwandishi wetu
SERIKALI imewataka wanahabari kusoma sheria, taratibu na kanuni zinaogusa tasnia yao ili iweze kuendelea na kuachana na kuamini kila kitu wanachoambiwa na mtu mmoja.
Kauli hiyo imetolewa na Waziri wa Habari, Utamaduni, Sanaa na Michezo Mh. Nape Nnauye wakati akizungumza katika siku ya radio duniani, hafla iliyofanyika Chuo Kikuu Huria jijini Dar es Salaam.
"Watu someni sheria, taratibu na kanuni kwa kina ili kujua na kuzielewa, mkielewa kama kuna sheria inakwaza ukuaji wa sekta ya habari tuseme tukae chini.. " alisema Waziri Nape akijibu hoja kuhusu sheria za habari zilizopo ambazo zinadaiwa kukwaza uhuru wa ukusanyaji wa habari.
Ilielezwa katika hafla hiyo kuwa sheria za sasa ya takwimu na habari zinakwaza uhuru wa sekta hiyo muhimu kwa maendeleo ya taifa.
Katika hoja hiyo Makamu mwenyekiti wa Umoja wa Redio za Jamii (COMNETA) Prosper Kwigize katika hotuba yake kwa Serikali, alisema kwamba redio hizo zinachangamoto nyingi katika utendaji wake ikiwamo sheria zilizopo,watoa habari wasioeleweka na wanazuia upatikanaji wa habari.
Nape alisema kwamba sheria si msaafu na kwa kuwa asilimia 80 za habari zinazalishwa na serikali, waandishi wanahaki ya kupata habari hizo na kama kuna kikwazo ni lazima kitafutiwe suluhu.
"Tukae tushindane kwa hoja tukubaliane na kuhakikisha kwamba tunarekebisha.. Bunge kazi yake ni kutunga na kufuta sheria" alisema Nape ambaye alisema kwamba sheria ya sasa imetoa nguvu kwa watoa habari na kwamba si kila habari iliyopo serikalini ni classified.
Alisema pia ili kufanikisha upatikanaji wa habari maofisa habari wamepewa maagizo ya kushiriki vikao ili waweze kutoa taarifa bila woga na kwa ujasiri mkubwa.
Alisema ni kazi ya serikali ni kutengeneza mazingira mazuri ya kukua kwa tasnia ya habari na itaendelea kupigania hilo kwa kuwa inatambua umuhimu wa vyombo vya habari.
Pamoja na kuweka mazingira mazuri amewataka wanaoendesha redio za jamii kutafuta namna ya kujiunga na taarifa za kitaifa (habari) ili wananchi wasitengwe na matukio ya maeneo mengine.
Alisema kwa kuwa sehemu kubwa ya redio hizo ziko pembezoni ni vyema nguvu yake ikatumika pia kuhabarisha matukio ya kitaifa.
Akizungumzia dawa za kulevya, Waziri Nape alitaka wanahabari kuwa na uzalendo na kushiriki katika vita hiyo kwa kutumia vyombo vyao vyote.
Alisema ni vyema wananchi na wanahabari wakatambua kwamba vita hiyo ni yetu sote na kwamba wanahabari wanauwezo wa kuunganisha wananchi katika kushinda hiyo vita ambayo ni kubwa.
Akizungumzia redio alitaka watu wanaotumia vyombo hivyo kuangalia namna ya kutoachwa nyuma wakati huu wa mabadiliko makubwa ya teknolojia na sayansi ambapo matumizi ya mtandao ya utoaji wa habari papo hapo unaendelea.
Aliwataka watu kuzungumza nafasi ya radio katika kuleta maendeleo huku wakiangalia changamoto zinazoletwa na teknolojia ya habari.
Sherehe hizo ambazo ziliambatanishwa na midahalo kuhusu upashanaji wa vyombo vya habari na sheria iliwasilishwa na Mkurugenzi wa utangazaji wa TCRA Ntobi na pia watendaji wa UNDP kuhusu malengo ya maendeleo endelevu na namna radio inavyowezesha hamasa ya utekelezaji iliratibiwa na UNESCO.
Mkuu wa ofisi na Mwakilishi wa Shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa linaloshughulikia Elimu, Sayansi na Utamaduni (UNESCO) nchini Zulmira Rodrigues alisema akimkaribisha Waziri Nape kwamba washiriki katika sekta ya utangazaji wanatakiwa kuwa pamoja ili kukuza upashanaji wa habari katika maeneo ya pembezoni.
Alishauri kuwepo na kuaminiana ili kufanikisha malengo ya kuleta maendeleo kwa kupeana nafasi na kushirikishana.
Alitaka watanzania kutumia nguvu ya radio kukabiliana na matatizo mbalimbali ya kitaifa na kuleta maendeleo yanayotakiwa.
Kukiwa na vituo vya radio 44,000 duniani Mwakilishi huyo wa UNESCO alisema kwamba radio bado ina maslahi makubwa kwa wananchi kutokana na kutoa sauti kwa wakazi ili kukabiliana na changamoto zilizopo.

RIPOTI YA MAUAJI YA ALBINO - 1: NILIPAMBANA, NIKASIKIA PA! KICHWANI, NILIPOZINDUKA KIGANJA CHA BARAKA KILIKUWA KIMEKATWA
PRISCA Shaaban Mpesya (29), mkazi wa Kitongoji cha Kikonde, Kijiji cha Kaoze katika Kata na Tarafa ya Kipeta wilayani Sumbawanga mkoani Rukwa, alikuwa analia kimya kimya.
Alimtazama mwanaye Baraka (6) aliyening’iniza mkono wa kulia huku akilia kwa maumivu baada ya kukatwa kitanga cha mkono na ‘watu wasiojulikana’ wanaosaka utajiri, kwa sababu yeye ni albino na wanadai viungo vyake ni ‘dili’.
Kwa Prisca, kuzaa watoto wenye albinism inaonekana ni majanga kwake na kizazi chake, hasa katika kipindi ambacho matukio ya mauaji, kutekwa nyara na kukatwa viungo vya albino yameshamiri Tanzania na Afrika Mashariki na Kati.
Anajaribu kukumbuka tukio hilo la usiku wa Jumamosi, Machi 7, 2015 alivyonusurika kufa yeye na mwanaye Baraka.
“Nilikuwa natoka nje kwenda kujisaidia, sijui ilikuwa saa ngapi kwa sababu sikuwa na saa, nje juu ya mlango tuliweka taa ya Mchina ya solar ambayo ilikuwa inaangaza, hivyo sikuwa na hofu,” ndivyo anavyoanza kumsimulia mwandishi wa makala haya wakati alipokuwa amelazwa kwenye Hospitali ya Rufaa ya Mbeya.
Anasema ghafla tu alipofika mlangoni akashtuka kuona mtu akija mbio, akaipiga taa na kuivunja, kukawa giza.
“Nikajua huyu hakuwa mwema, hivyo nikajiandaa kupambana naye, alikuwa mwanamume mwenye nguvu kunishinda, lakini nilimdhibiti kwa sababu alitaka kuingia ndani kwa nguvu nami sikutaka kwa sababu wanangu walikuwa wamelala chini angeweza kuwaumiza.
“Mara nikasikia kitu kikinipiga kichwani pa! Nikaanguka na kupoteza fahamu. Nilipozinduka nikamwona mwanangu Baraka analia, kitanga cha mkono kimekatwa.” Akaongeza: “Natamani watu wanaofanya mambo haya wauawe hadharani.”
Anasema, mumewe Cosmas Yoramu Songoloka hakuwepo kwani alikuwa ameaga tangu mchana kwamba anakwenda kilabuni kunywa pombe, na mpaka majira hayo hakujua kama alikuwa kilabuni ama alikwenda kwa mke mdogo ingawa haikuwa zamu yake.
Baraka Cosmas Yoramu alikatwa kitanga cha mkono wa kulia na watu ‘wasiojulikana’ Machi 7, 2015 majira ya saa 2 usiku kwa imani za kujipatia utajiri wa kishirikina.
Jitihada za kupata tiba katika kituo cha afya Kamsamba wilayani Sumbawanga zilishindikana, hivyo kukimbizwa katika Hospitali ya Rufaa Mbeya.
Prisca anasema, pamoja na ujauzito aliokuwa nao wakati huo, lakini hakuhisi chochote zaidi ya kuwalinda wanawe, zawadi pekee aliyopewa na Mwenyezi Mungu.
“Nimehangaika na mimba zao kwa nyakati tofauti, sikuwa tayari kuona wanapata madhara, ndiyo maana niliisahau hata hali yangu nikaamua kupambana,” anasema.
Maumivu ya jeraha lake la kichwani alilopata kwa kupigwa na ‘kitu kizito’ yalionekana siyo kitu kwa wakati huo, kwa sababu binti yake Lucia (3) ambaye ana albinism pia alikuwa anamsumbua hospitalini, na kwa umri wake, alikuwa hajui kinachoendelea.
Lakini kubwa zaidi ni kwamba, mwanaye mchanga wa kiume aliye albino, ambaye ndiyo kwanza alikuwa ametoka kujifungua, naye alikuwa analia akitaka kunyonya.
Sasa anao watoto watatu wenye albinism kati ya wanne, akiwemo huyo mdogo ambaye kwa sasa ametimiza mwaka mmoja na nusu tangu alipozaliwa Aprili 2015 kwenye Hospitali ya Rufaa Mbeya wakati akiuguza jeraha lake kichwani pamoja na kumuuguza mwanaye Baraka jeraha la mkono.
Bi. Prisca alifikishwa hospitalini hapo Machi 8, 2015 huku akiwa amembeba mwanaye Lucia na mimba ya miezi karibu nane ikiwa imemuelemea.
“Nisingeweza kumwacha Lucia kule porini kwa sababu watu wabaya wangeweza kumjia,” alisema.
Mtoto wake mkubwa, Shukuru (8), alimwacha kijijini huku mumewe Cosmas akiwa mahabusu kuhusiana na tukio hilo.
Mwandishi wa makala haya, ambaye amefanya utafiti wa mauaji ya albino kwa miezi nane mfululizo, alipiga kambi mjini Sumbawanga kwa takriban miezi miwili na kushuhudia maofisa wa polisi walivyowakamata wahusika wa tukio hilo, akiwemo Sajenti Kalinga Malonji, ‘tajiri’ ambaye ndiye aliyepelekewa kiganja hicho na kuahidi kuwapatia wenzake mamilioni ya fedha
