Hili limeniumiza sana
Elon Musk amesema kwamba Rais Donald Trump alikubali kuwa Shirika la Maendeleo ya Kimataifa la Marekani (USAID) linapaswa kufungwa, kufuatia siku kadhaa za uvumi kuhusu mustakabali wa shirika hilo baada ya ufadhili wake kusitishwa na wafanyakazi wake kadhaa kuwekwa likizo.
"Kuhusu suala la USAID, nililijadili kwa kina na (rais) naye alikubali kwamba tunapaswa kulifunga," Musk alisema katika mazungumzo ya X Spaces mapema Jumatatu.
Musk alisema alihakiki na Trump "mara kadhaa" na Trump alithibitisha kuwa anataka kufunga shirika hilo, ambalo hutenga mabilioni ya dola kila mwaka kwa misaada ya kibinadamu na ufadhili wa maendeleo. CNN imewasiliana na Ikulu ya White House na USAID kwa maoni.

Elon Musk said President Donald Trump agreed the US Agency for International Development needs to be “shut down,” following days of speculation over the future of the agency after its funding was frozen and dozens of its employees were put on leave.
“With regards to the USAID stuff, I went over it with (the president) in detail and he agreed that we should shut it down,” Musk said in a X Spaces conversation early Monday.
Musk said he checked with Trump “a few times” and Trump confirmed he wants to shut down the agency, which dispenses billions in humanitarian aid and development funding annually. CNN has reached out to the White House and USAID for comment.
