LOWASSA AWATAKA WAKENYA KUVUMILIANA

Aliyekuwa waziri mkuu nchini Tanzania na mgombea wa urais katika chama cha upinzani Chadema katika uchaguzi uliopita Edward Lowassa amewataka Wakenya kuvumiliana wakati huu ambapo taifa hilo linakaribia uchaguzi.

Akizungumza nchini Kenya katika mazishi ya aliyekuwa waziri wa usalama nchini humo marehemu Joseph Nkaiserry, Lowassa amesema kuwa kenya inapaswa kujifunza kutoka kwa machafuko ya uchaguzi ya mwaka 2007.

Matamshi yake yaliungwa mkono na rais wa Kenya Uhuru Kenyatta aliyewataka wafuasi wake na wale wa kiongizi wa upinzani Raila Odinga kuvumiliana.

Uhuru alisema kuwa hakuna haja ya kupakana tope za matusi akiongezea kuwa matusi hayasaidii.

''Sisi sote ni Wakenya , hatuna taifa jingine la kujenga baada ya uchaguzi ,tunaomba amani, amani amani'', alisema rais Uhuru Kenyatta.

Matamshi ya Uhuru na Lowassa yanajiri wakati ambapo wafuasi wa upinzani na wale wanaounga mkono serikali wamekuwa wakiwazomea viongozi wanaotoka pande pinzani katika mikutano ya kampeni na hata kusababisha mikutano hiyo kusitishwa.

Lowassa amesema kuwa Kenya ni tegemio la kiuchumi katika mataifa ya Afrika mashariki hivyobasi inafaa kuwa mfano kwa kuhakikisha kuwa taifa hili halijiingizi tena katika jinamizi la machafuko yalioonekana miaka 10 iliopita.

''Ombeni musirudi katika mapigano yaliotokea mwaka 2007, Kenya iko mbele kushinda taifa lolote lile Afrika mashariki na tunataka muendelee kusonga mbele.

Lowasa alisema kuwa marehemu Nkaissery aliamini sana Umoja wa Afrika mashariki na alijitolea kufanya kazi na akawataka viongozi wengine kuiga mfano wake.

Naye rais Uhuru aliongezea kwamba Kenya na Tanzania ni pacha na zitaendelea kuimarisha ushirikiano wao kwa lengo la kurahisisha biashara na usalama kati ya raia wa mataifa hayo mawili.

Miongoni mwa wale waliohudhuria mkutano huo ni pamoja na kiongozi wa upinzani nchini Kenya Raila Odinga na naibu wa rais William Ruto

MWENYEKITI WA CHADEMA GEITA AUAWA KWA KUKATWA NA MAPANGA

      Mwenyekiti wa CHADEMA mkoa wa Geita na aliyekuwa mgombea ubunge jimbo la Busanda, Alphonce Mawazo amefariki dunia kwa kupigwa na watu wasiojulikana leo saa 9 mchana, mkoani Geita.

                                                                         President did a passable impression of the popular meme

          President Barack Obama, in a recent speech, compared the current crop of Republic presidential candidates to Grumpy Cat. “And it does make you wonder why is it that Republican politicians are so down on America? I mean, they are gloomy. They’re like Grumpy Cat,” Obama said. He was making a point about positivity and working like a team. But his excellent frowny-faced impression of the meme sent the audience into peals of laughter, The Hill reports.

DOJ Clears Lois Lerner, Closes IRS Investigation

© Tom Williams/CQ Roll Call File Photo Lerner in a House Oversight Committee hearing in in 2013.
Congress wanted to jail her, but the Justice Department closed its investigation Friday into the IRS's handling of tax-exemption applications from political groups without pursuing criminal charges against Lois Lerner.

In a letter to congressional committees probing the allegations that Lerner knowingly presided over the improper targeting of conservative organizations, Assistant Attorney General Peter J. Kadzik said the DOJ "found no evidence that any IRS official acted based on political, discriminatory, corrupt, or other inappropriate motives that would support a criminal prosecution."

The investigation, launched in May 2013, uncovered substantial evidence of mismanagement, poor judgement and institutional inertia, Kadzik stated. No IRS employee interviewed by the DOJ reported having any information suggesting actions were taken "with the purpose of harming or harassing applicants affiliated with the Tea Party or similar groups," he stated. Even politically conservative employees who were critical of Lerner's leadership and management style did not suspect their boss acted with political, discriminatory or corrupt purposes.

Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., who grilled Lerner during tense House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearings, said the decision not to prosecute ignored "volumes of evidence in the public record and efforts to obstruct legitimate inquires.

"Americans' faith in government and in the IRS in particular, has been greatly eroded by an Administration that when confronted with instances of misconduct appears complicit in shielding those involved from responsibility. Giving Lois Lerner a free pass only reinforces the idea that government officials are above the law and that there is no consequence for wrongdoing."

The top Democrat on the committee, Rep. Elijah E. Cummings, D-Md., called out the GOP for conducting "taxpayer-funded attacks."

"Over the past five years, Republicans in the House of Representatives have squandered literally tens of millions of dollars going down all kinds of investigative rabbit holes — IRS, Planned Parenthood, Benghazi — with absolutely no evidence of illegal activity," Cummings said in a statement. "I believe the American people have higher expectations for their elected officials, and they want Congress to start doing its job and focusing on issues that matter instead of these ridiculous, partisan, taxpayer-funded attacks."

"The Department of Justice investigation did conclude that the actions of IRS personnel involved in the scandal was 'disquieting' and in that we all agree," said House Judiciary Chairman Robert W. Goodlatte said in a statement. "However, the American people should be concerned that this kind of politicization continues to go unchecked by this Administration and a Justice Department charged with pursuing wrongdoing. You can be sure this will be a major issue during the Committee's DOJ oversight hearing with Attorney General Lynch next week."

a spanish billioner justoverthrew bill gates to became a richest man in the wolrd.

                                                                                                                                                                There's a new richest man in the world.
It's Spanish clothing magnate Amancio Ortega, who has overtaken Microsoft founder Bill Gates for the first time ever.
According to Forbes' real-time tracker, the elusive multibillionaire founder of European clothing retailer Zara just smashed past Bill Gates to become the wealthiest person on the planet, with a fortune of $79.8 billion (€71.83 billion or £51.84 billion). 
The elusive Ortega isn't as much of a household name as Gates, but he's quietly ascended the wealth rankings in recent years, as his company continues to perform well and expand.
Unlike many of the richest people in the world, Ortega has a fascinating rags-to-riches story. Born in 1936 during the Spanish Civil War, Ortega's father earned 300 pesetas a month, a meager salary. 
Ortega's biographer described his memories of a childhood during which his family could not always afford enough food. He left school in his early teens, working his way up from the absolute bottom rung as a messenger boy in a shop.
It wasn't until he was 40 years old that Ortega got around to setting up Zara, the fast-fashion retailer that has gone from strength to strength — first growing in Spain, then neighbouring Portugal and France, then London. Now it's all over the globe. 
According to Forbes, Ortega's wealth rose by 5.3%, another $4 billion, over the last 24 hours. That's partly down to a surge in Inditex shares, the parent company that owns Zara

THE AMAZING STORY ABOUT MKAPA AND FREEMASONS

ON SATURDAY 9TH OCTOBER 2004

Freemasons Honoured by President Mkapa

Freemasons to donate tricycles, mattresses, mosquito nets etc.

Last evening Freemasons in Tanzania celebrated in Dar es Salaam 100 years of Freemasonry in East Africa at a gala banquet in a city hotel at which the Guests of Honour is expected to be President Mkapa and the First Lady. On that occasion Freemasons will donate 25 tricycles, mattresses, mosquito nets to orphanages and to a blind school.

Freemasons are helping many welfare causes in different parts of the country. Among them are the Kindwitwi Leprosy Centre in Utete; Mother Theresa Home for the Children, School for the Blind in Pongwe in Tanga Region; Orphanage and Leprosy Projects in Arusha; Montessori School in Mwanza; Mnazi Mmoja Hospital in Zanzibar; Missionaries of Charity and Buguruni School for the Deaf are all beneficiaries of our organization.

Freemasons have built a class room at Kinondoni Primary School, treated over 100 visually impaired patients in Dar es Salaam and Zanzibar and provided artificial limbs to a large number of patients and in 1996 they donated £15,000/- for the victims of MV Bukoba disaster.

They are presently paying for the education expenses of the children of the victims of American Embassy bombing and have promised to do so untl they complete their high school education. It is the only organization supporting these victims.

English Freemasonry, which has been in existence for nearly 300 years and which over the period had amongst its membership Kings, Princes, Prime Ministers, religious and business leaders, scientists, movie actors, musicians and writers, came to East Africa in 1904 with the first meeting facility based in Zanzibar.

It was introduced in Tanzania in 1904 and over the years the visitors included President Theodore Roosevelt, His Royal Highness, The Duke of Windsor; His Royal Highness, the Duke of York who later became King George VI; His Royal Highness, The Duke of Connaught and Stratheam; the Rt Hon Lord Cornwallis; the Rt Hon Lord Swansea and the Rt Ho, The Earl of Eglington and Winton who were all Freemasons.

Their membership list runs like the world Who’s Who. His Royal Highness, Prince Philip, the Duke of Edinburgh, 14 American Presidents, amongst whom were Presidents George Washington, both the Roosevelts; Truman, Gerald Ford, George Bush, Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton.

Ten Australian Prime Ministers, 35 US Supreme Court Justices members, Generals Colin Powell and MacArthur. Other Freemansons include world leaders like Cecil Rhodes, Olof Palme, Ted Kennedy, Francois Mitterand, Napoleon Bonaparte, Winston Churchill, Willy Brandt, Robert McNamara, Edger Hoover and Tony Blair.

Others were religious leaders like Swami Vivekananda, former Archbishop of Canterbury Most Reverend Geoffrey Fisher, and Jesse Jackson, business leaders such as Fords, Rothschilds and the Rockefellers and Richard Wagner, Mozart, Shakespeare, Rudyard Kipling and Alexander Fleming. Neil Armstrong, the first man to land on the Moon was a freemason.

The present Head of English Freemasonry is His Royal Highness, The Duke of Kent a cousin of Queen Elizabeth II and about 3,000 Freemasons in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and the Seychelles are headed by Sir Jayantilal Chande, a Tanzanian, who has been the leader of Freemasonry in East Africa for the past 18 years. The headquarters of this body established with the approval of the Registrar of Societies is located on Nyerere Road, Nairobi.

All Freemasons, drawn from different faiths are encouraged to believe in God as the Supreme Creator and they are exhorted to be law-abiding and faithful citizens. They should continuously work towards development of their spiritual and moral values and ethical standard.

Freemasonry the oldest fraternal organization, with the possible exception of Boys

Scouts Movement, is the largest in the world. Globally, about half a million Freemasons annually contribute about US$400 million to worthy causes.
