[Pundit]

Tanzania to Upgrade, Rehabilitate Power System with New US$111 million Project
-
81,000 rural, urban homes and public services will newly access electricity

WASHINGTON, December 14, 2007 – The World Bank Board of Executive Directors has approved a US$105 million equivalent IDA credit* and a US$6.5 million Global Environment Facility (GEF) grant to improve electricity services in Tanzania, where electrification rates in some areas are as low as two percent

 

[Rev. Kishoka]

Tulikuwa tunaongelea economic hitmen mi nikasema mtu kama JK anaweza asihitaji hata economic hitmen, anaweza kuvutwa kisaikolojia tu na kuhakikishiwa interests zake zinalindwa kwisha.This is exactly what I was talking about.

Pundit,

This is the sad story about JK. Afazwali hata basi angekuwa Mchovyaji wa Nguvu kama Air Uchumi-Kasungura, tungempa sifa za kujijazia Mipesa.

Yeye ni "bwege" ndio maana hawa mafisadi wanamtumia. you made my day and sum up all we see and percieve about JK!

 

[Pundit]

Yeah Rev, it is sad indeed.With leaders like ours I have reeasons to be suspicious of the terms of this new project.

 

[Susuviri]

Haya jamani, nimeendelea na upelelezi, nimepata stori zote alizoweka Kichuguu - thank you!
Lakini nimekereka sana na Andrew Young na nimepata stori nyingi zaidi:

Young’s consulting firm, ironically named GoodWorks International (GWI), as a lucrative conduit for facilitating US interests in the “emerging markets” of Africa.
According to the New York Times article, questions about Young and GWI’s relationship with the corrupt outgoing president of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo, became a lighting rod for those opposing Obasanjo’s anti-democratic policies during the run-up to the sham elections. The firm advertises that it “opens doors for corporations interested in doing business in Africa and the Caribbean.” The mayor of Atlanta, Shirley Franklin, who is also a friend of Young, praised GWI for practicing “public-purpose capitalism.”
This view is not shared by those following human rights issues in Africa. “Andrew Young has never been interested in these [humanitarian] issues,” Femi Falana, president of the West African Bar Association, told the Times “He is just here making money.”Young put it another way, “For 40 years of my life,” he told the Times, “I was on the outside seeking change. I realized that I could be more effective being on the inside implementing it.”
What changes have GWI implemented? As the principal lobbying agent for the government of Nigeria in the US, it is making millions representing major companies like ChevronTexaco, General Electric, and Motorola seeking contracts from the Nigerian government.The company generally receives a commission equal to 1 ½ percent of a contract’s value. This is a tidy sum when GoodWorks consults on contracts such as General Electric Energy’s agreement to provide $400 million in turbines for Nigeria, as they did last year.
The firm is a major shareholder in a Nigerian energy company, Suntrust Oil, which won a lease for offshore oil fields. According to the Atlanta-Journal Constitution, Nigeria provides as much as 40 percent of GoodWorks revenues, paying $1.75 million to the company since 2000, not including a retainer fee of $60,000 a month.GWI also specializes in relations with other oil-producing African states, including Sudan and Angola. Moreover, it represents other American companies among the most notorious for their slave-wages and environmental destruction in Africa, including Nike, Coca-Cola and the gold mining concern Barrick Gold, a company connected with the Bush family

Ok, sasa hapa tumeshajua urafiki wa Andrew Young and JF. Mnasema mungwana is innocent? I don't think so! He is preparing with his pals to SCAM us all!
Ngoja niongeze story ya NIgeria ili muweze kuona jinsi walivyomsaidia Obasanjo kuiba

Young set up GWI in 1997 with the help of Hamilton Jordon, President Carter’s former chief of staff. Foundation directors for GWI include President Bill Clinton, Alexis Herman, the former Secretary of Labor, and Maurice Tempelsman, a diamond merchant and fund raiser in the Democratic Party. Tempelsman has been implicated as an important figure in the DeBeers diamond cartel in Africa, now known as the “blood diamond” business.Reports indicate that Young’s ties to Africa developed while he was the US ambassador to the UN in the late 70s, meeting Obasanjo, the military-installed president of Nigeria, at the time. “Obasanjo and I kind of hit it off immediately,” Young told the Times. “We were mainly interested in democracy.”
Actually, Obasanjo was a US operative, closely allied to the CIA, who took power in 1976 after his predecessor, Murtala Muhammad, was assassinated under unexplained circumstances. At the time, the US was still reeling from the OPEC oil embargo and was vitally concerned with Nigerian oil interests.
When Obasanjo left power the first time, in 1979, he was appointed to the board of directors of the CIA-run African American Institute, headed by the former US ambassador to Nigeria Donald B. Easum. In the 1980s, Obasanjo was sent on high-profile speaking tours by the Center for Strategic and International Studies and the US Institute for Peace.
Young has defended his relations with Obasanjo, portraying him as the defender of democracy in Nigeria who has broken the past practice of corruption that has been rampant since the country won its independence. Obasanjo has also received the praises of President George W. Bush and Colin Powell as an example of the type of democracy they would like to see in Africa.
A very different picture is drawn in the February 14 issue of the International Herald Tribune, in an article entitled, “Fooling people some of the time,” which reports that Obasanjo has done nothing about corruption in the country with “as much as $600 billion in ill-gotten gains sitting in foreign bank accounts while the rural farmers live on less than one dollar a day.”The paper accuses Obasanjo of “monopolizing power the day he entered office,” and of keeping “the oil portfolio for himself so that he could use Nigeria’s vast oil wealth for political ends.” As a result, all politicians in the government were “beholden to him for money.”
In an attempt change the constitution so that he could run a third term, he tried to pressure state governors and members of Parliament with bribes as high as $400,000, the Herald Tribune said. “Governors who refused were threatened with impeachment,” as was the case with his former ally and vice president, Atiku Abubakar, who broke with Obasanjo and ran against his hand picked successor for president.

Naomba ruksa niendelee kuchimbua. Natumaini waandishi wa habari mpo! This is breaking news!

Admin naaomba uunganishe hii na thread ya "Nyie mnasema ..." maana naona zina overlap!
HUko nilikuta this post

Tanzania to Upgrade, Rehabilitate Power System with New US$111 million Project
-
81,000 rural, urban homes and public services will newly access electricity

WASHINGTON, December 14, 2007 – The World Bank Board of Executive Directors has approved a US$105 million equivalent IDA credit* and a US$6.5 million Global Environment Facility (GEF) grant to improve electricity services in Tanzania, where electrification rates in some areas are as low as two percent
__________________

Sasa naomba nionyeshe jinsi World Bank, Andrew Young, Leon H Sullivan zilivyokuwa connected (talk about consirpacy! Mtashangaa!)

"The more I read about Paul Wolfowitz, the more I realized we had in common," confessed Atlanta's former mayor and shameless son Andrew Young, in his opening remarks before a Wolfowitz speech at an Atlanta synagogue, Sunday night. "We had a common mentor, [in] George Schultz... We had come from a completely different direction but found ourselves with a common agenda, to spread peace."
Andrew Young's "mentor" George Schultz was secretary of state during the Reagan Administration's murderous contra wars in Central America, and during the Iran-Iraq war, in which more than a people perished while America provided military intelligence and aid to both sides. Schultz is also a former CEO of Bechtel, a distinction he shares with Donald Rumsfeld. Paul Wolfowitz was until a few months ago Deputy Secretary of Defense, an early advocate and leading architect of the current war in Iraq as well as the next ones in Iran and/or Syria, and the current head of the World Bank.

Kwa hiyo Wolfowitz na Young go back a long way.
Sasa hivi nimeona TVT wameonyesha Sullivan dinner na kuna documetnary iliuyotengenezwa na akina Andrew Young. I am sure that ile helikopta ya kijeshi iliyoanguka na some filmmakers watakuwa ni watu wa Andrew Young! Na si ajabu kwani who has influence in Tanzanian govenrment kuamuru kuwa helikopta ya kijeshi ibebe waandishi wa habari? Of course Amiri Jeshi Mkuu, but hii sina uthibitisho, so as it's speculation I will dmit it, but this does not mean it's not probable.
And how did Andrew Young get into the picture with Kikwete?
Ohoo!
Ngoja nionyeshe in my next post.. stay tuned

Inawezekana ikaishia ku-offset madeni tunayobeba kutokana na IPTL, Songas and Dowans aka Richmond.
Hatukuhitaji kufika huku kama isingekuwa tamaa ya wazee. Utakuta wanahongwa vidola laki moja au mbili kuuza nchi.
I am not seeing the way forward on this if there is no commitment from the top.

 

[William J. Malecela]

Andrew Young, ni mtu anyepaswa kuwa a fine nigger, majuzi amsema utumbo ambao wa mwaka, kwamba Bill Clinton ni more black than a white kwa sababu ame-date more blackwomen than whites katika maisha yake, halafu akatoka hapo akaenda kutoa zawadi kwa rais wetu ambayo inatakiwa kuwa ni babu kuwa,

Huyu ndiye aliyekuwa rafiki wa karibu sana wa Abacha, ambako mpaka leo kuna habari nyingi za yeye kuhusika sana na wizi wa Abacha kwa wananchi wa Nigeria, kama huyu mkuu anahusika na hiyo Sullivan thing, basi wabongo ni vyema tukajiepusha nao,

Look wao walipanga sherehe ya kumkabidhi rais wetu zawadi, na kwamba kila atakayeshirki hiyo sherehe atalipa dola 300 kuingia ndani ya ukumbi, wabongo flani wakajitokeza na kwenda kuwaambi hao Sullivan kuwa wao ndio wawakilishi wa wabongo wote US, Sullivan wakakubali na ku-make nao deal kwa ajili ya wabongo watakaokwenda huko DC, the next thing wale wabongo wapenda ujiko wakajitatanua na kuanza kutangaza mambo ambayo hata wazee wa idara wetu wa taifa walikuwa hawajui, yaani hata kabla kwenda kwa rais huko hakujasemwa rasmi, nasikia ikawa vuta nikuvute huko kwenye idara hawa wabongo wakaingia mitini,

sasa tell me about hiyo Sullivan?

Ok so the connections continue!
Mzee Mwanakijiji kanipa hint na nimefanya homework yangu!
So Further connections:
Remember Andrew young yupokwenye board of directors of Barrick Gold? Sasa pamoja na Young kwenye board yupo pia jamaa anaitwa Sinclair. So who is this Sinclair?

In the mid-1990s Barrick began developing ties with Sutton Resources, another Canadian mining company. Sutton, which would eventually be bought by Barrick, had a concession in Tanzania, but they had a problem with the concession. That problem was the fact that tens of thousands of small independent prospectors were already mining the land and held legal claim to their small mines. They had to be removed before Sutton could take over.
In August 1996, Sutton, with the help of military police, bulldozed the small mines and in the process buried alive approximately 50 miners who were still down in their shafts. These are the people we are dealing with now.

Sasa ilikujua how this gets even more exciting here is more info

In Tanzania, it has been almost ten years since an estimated 30,000-400,000 small-scale miners were forced off the Buyanhulu mine site to make way for corporate mining. But this week’s decision to fire the thousand striking miners will no doubt rekindle this historic resentment. The deal to take this mining concession away from these small-scale miners was brokered by Sutton Resources’ CEO James Sinclair, who was a friend of the president of Tanzania and several senior ministers, as was his daughter.

Thanks Mzee Mwanakijiji for the hint!
Ngoja nirudi tena kwenye research! Wengine karibuni anike vitu hapa!

 

[Azimio Jipya]

[Mugo"The Great"]

Soma hapo chini:

"The Chairman of the Board of Directors for the Leon H. Sullivan Foundation ambassador Andrew Young has presented this year's Sullivan Special award to President Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete for his commitment and zeal to eradicate poverty in Tanzania and for his efforts in fostering peace in Africa with a vision to bring prosperity.
The president was awarded during the Fifth Sullivan Summit awards Dinner held in Washington DC last night.

The dinner is a platform to honour leaders in the global community that have made a significant difference in the areas of their work including self help,social responsibility,economic empowerment and human rights.

" Kummaliza kabisa Muungwana, atapewa PhD ya heshima kwa kukuza uchumi, kupambana na Rushwa na kuiendeleza nchi kwa kasi mpya na ari mpya. Kisha in return atawagawia nchi kwa kasi na ari hiyo hiyo mpya" Kwani wameshamjua. "OLE WETU WATANZANIA"

Na bado,

Kikwete anapalilia misifa hapo chini hotuba yake Movenpick.

[Susuviri]

Najua inachosha kusoma all the info at once and I am still working on connecting the dots but I would like to outline what we have:

Sullivan foundation - leaders are Andrew Young and Jeter also CEO etc of GoodWorks International LCC - a lobby group
Jeter was working in US embassy in Tanzania
Andrew Young - Barrick Gold board director
- knows Sinclair
James Sinclair - owner of Sutton Mines originator of Bulyanhulu and eventually sold to Barrick

Andrew Young anaonekana ni front man for American business zinazovamia nchi zinazoendelea esp Africa.
Sasa naona hapa kuna 'uvamizi' unaandaliwa jamani the war for our nation has started, hii Sullivan itakumbukwa kama Berlin COnference ya kugawa Tanzania! Mungu atuepusha na greedy corporates kama hao!
Haya ngoja tuendelee kutafuta!

 

[Susuviri]

More info about Sinclair

James E. Sinclair is Chairman & CEO of Tan Range Exploration TNX on the Toronto Stock Exchange. He was Chairman of Sutton Resources from 1989 to 1995 when he personally funded that company into the development of the Bulyanhulu property before its sale to Barrick Gold.

Sinclair has written three books on commercial metals, precious metals and economics. Forbes December 10, 2001 article reviews his career in gold. Prior to 1989, Mr. Sinclair was the owner and operator of metals trading, commodity clearing and metals arbitrage group firm known as the Sinclair Group. He is considered a leader in the understanding of the economics and markets for gold.
