CHAMA CHA WALIMU CHATANGAZA MGOGORO NA SERIKALI
Na Grace Ndossa
CHAMA cha Waalimu Tanzania(CWT)kimesema kuwa kusudio la kutangaza mgogoro na serikali liko pale pale kama ilivyopitishwa na Baraza la Taifa la Chama kwa sababu hakuna hatua za makusudi zilizochukuliwa na serikali kukabilia na matatizo ya waalimu hasa wanaoidai.
Pia chama hicho kimetoa wito kwa watendaji wake kuwasilisha majina ya waalimu wanaodai kwa kuzingatia maelekezo yaliyotolewa kwao.
Hata hivyo alisema kuwa wanachama wanaobwa kushirikiano na viongozi wao japo kuwa inaonekana kuwa ni usumbufu kwa kuwasilisha nyaraka mara nyingi bila ya kuyapatiwa ufumbuzi.
Kauli hiyo ilitolewa Dar es salaam jana na Rais wa Chama hicho Bw. Gratian Mukoba alipokuwa anazungumza na waandishi wa habari kuhusina na maazimio waliofikia walipokaa na serikali kujadili madai yao.
Alisema kuwa walimu wanatakiwa kuendelea kuwa na subira wakati majadiliana yakiendelea na serikali ili kujua hatma ya madeni yao baada ya kikao kilichopangwa kufanyika kabla ya mwezi huu kukamilika.
Alisema kuwa maazimio yaliyofikiwa na kikao hicho ni chama kiwasilishe majina ya waalimu wanaodai kwa kuzingatia format iliyokubalika ili kiweze kudhibitisha madai yaliyowasilishwa ya zaidi ya sh bilioni 29.2.
Alisema kuwa majina hayo yanatakiwa kuwasilishwa kwa katibu Mkuu Ofisi ya Rais Menenjimenti ya Utumishi wa Umma kabla ya Agosti 15 mwaka huu nyaraka zenye majina ya walimu hao.
'Serikali ilikuwa na wasiwasi kuwa huenda wanaodai ni wale waliokwishalipwa au waliowasilishwa nyaraka zao na mkaguzi na mdhibiti wa Hesabu za serikali alikataa madai yao na aidha walikata rufaa wakakataliwa au hawakukata rufaa,'alisema Bw. Mukoba.
Pia alisema kuwa majina ya walimu waliokuwa wanastahili kupandishwa madaraja kwa miaka ya nyuma lakini hawakupandishwa mwaka jana wa fedha kwa madai kuwa mwajiri hakuwa na fedha, hawa ni walioanza kazi mwaka 2007, waliopandishwa madaraja kwa mwaka jana wa fedha.
Hata hivyo alisema kuwa serikali inatakiwa kuangali upya waraka wa utumishi wa Kumb. Na.C/CA.44/45/01/84wa Desemba 1 mwaka 2009 ambao umelalamikiwa sana na waalimu wanaojiendeleza.
Bw. Mukoba alisema kuwa ushauri uliotolewa kwa siku zijazo viongozi wa CWTngazi za Wilaya washirikiene na wakurugenzi kuhakiki madeni ya waalimu kila baada ya miezi mitatu ili kwa pamoja wabaini madeni mapema na taarifa iwe moja kuepuka uisumbufu unaojitokeza kwa sasa.
'Walimu wakumbuke kuwa kuwasilisha madai huku akijua kuwa si madai halali ni kosa la jinai na atakayebainika mwajhiri wake atachukuliwa hatua za kinidhamu ikiwa ni pamoja na kufikishwa mahakamani,'alisema Mukoba
Alisema kuwa Pande zote mbili kwenye kikao hicho kilikubalina kuwa serikali itaitisha kikao kingine kabla ya Agosti 30 mwaka huu baada ya CWT kuwasilisha majina Agosti 15 ili kwa pamoja pande zote zipitie na kuona ukubwa wa tatizo la madai ya waalimu kama yalivyowasilishwa, baada ya kukusanya madeni kutoka mikoani na kikao hicho ndicho kitatoa hatma ya utekelezaji.

Florida on hurricane alert as tropical storm Emily is gaining power and threatens to hit the U.S. by the weekend
A tropical storm has formed in the Caribbean and could develop into a hurricane before hitting the U.S. coast, experts warned today.
Emily is currently travelling north and west and could eventually have wind speeds in excess of 74 mph prompting severe weather warnings and watches in Florida.
According to the U.S. National Hurricane Centre, while there have been many tropical storms that have hit land along the Atlantic Seaboard of the U.S. in recent years, the last hurricane to hit the Sunshine State was Jeanne in September 2004.
Caribbean islands in Emily's path have already been hit with torrential rain, flash flooding, and mudslides while roads have been washed away.
Dangerous: The last hurricane to hit Florida was Jeanne in 2004, and this picture of boats at the Davis Island Yacht Club, in Tampa shows its power
Downpours and waves have caused problems with flooding in the Lesser Antilles, including the failure of a dam on Dominica.
Although its winds are not currently above 40 mph, it is feared Emily may grow into at least a Category 1 hurricane, when winds must hit at least 74 mph on the five-step Saffir-Simpson Hurricane Wind Scale.
'It could be impacting the Florida peninsula this weekend,' said Andy Mussoline, a meteorologist with AccuWeather in State College, Pennsylvania.
Gaston was the last hurricane to hit the U.S. Atlantic Seaboard north of Florida, also during 2004, while Earl hit Nova Scotia, Canada, as a hurricane in 2010.
The new storm is about 350 miles south east of San Juan, Puerto Rico after it formed 50 miles south west of the island of Dominica and is expected to take a turn towards Florida over the next couple of days.
Power: Highway US1 was washed away along the Indian River in Brevard Country, Florida when hurricane Jeanne hit land seven years ago
Aftermath: Homes were lifted up and smashed when hurricane Jeanne hit Fort Pierce, Florida in September 2004
Storm warnings are in effect for Dominica, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic and the islands of Guadeloupe, Desirade, Les Saintes and Marie Galante, meaning that tropical storm conditions were expected within 36 hours.
Haiti, the U.S. Virgin Islands and St. Kitts, Nevis, Montserrat and Antigua are also under a tropical storm watch.
According to the U.S. Hurricane Centre, it is heading west at 17 miles per hour and is spanning an area of about 70 miles.
'This one is pretty vigorous, so we're watching it,' said Dennis Feltgen, spokesman for the Miami-based centre.
Aircraft was sent to the area on Monday and was expected to resume reconnaissance work on Tuesday, he said.
'This is a great reminder that we're fast approaching the beginning of the peak of the (hurricane) season,' said Feltgen, calling on residents to get prepared now.
Also on Monday, the National Hurricane Centre said that Eugene became the fifth hurricane of the eastern Pacific season.
Located about 435 miles south-west of Manzanillo, Mexico, the Category 1 hurricane is not forecast to hit land.

One of the most captivating and soothing ballads Aaliyah had ever recorded was "I Miss You" from her I Care 4 Urecord, which was released posthumously. A music video was filmed forthe tune in an effort to pay tribute to the late songstress, whichfeatured many of Aaliyah's peers and friends singing along to itsbittersweet lyrics.Acclaimed rapper DMX made the opening remarks in the videoexpressing his genuine love and admiration for the singer, andsimultanesouly praised her for "being an angel on earth." Severalnoteworthy musicians that made cameos in the video include MissyElliott, Toni Braxton, Jamie Foxx, Ananda Lewis, Lil' Kim, Quincy Jonesand Queen Latifah, among others.

Carbon Fumes Drugged the Six Politicians Found Unconscious
The true story has come out about what really happened to the six politicians that were found unconscious in a bus by some Okada men in the Gbagada area of Lagos State last week. Contrary to the story that they were drugged and abducted, the politicians, during a news conference at the Bariga Local Council Development Area of Lagos State at the weekend, said that wasn't what happened.
One of the men said it was carbon monoxide from the exhaust pipe that was broken and kept inside the vehicle they were driving in that led to their drowsiness. The glasses were wound up as the carbon monoxide in the exhaust pipe circulated in the vehicle. This was what made them fall unconscious.
