Inaelekea wewe uko nje ya Tanzania muda mrefu sana
possibly ado unafikiri Majambo bado yupo .....
ushaambiwa jamaa analipwa bonus ya kiasi hicho wewe hutaki sasa ukiambiwa utuletee ushahidi zaidi unaleta mambo ya most likely
Hivi unjua Mgawe pale Bandarini analipwa kiasi gani?

Sasa kwa sababu tumeamua kuchukua mmoja wetu, ningedhani kuwa tungeangalia zaidi uwezo wetu na hali ya nchi yetu. Hao wote tunaowalipa mishahara ya kufuru, tunafanya hivyo kwa kuwapunguzia wananchi wa kawaida.
Kwa maoni yangu ni dhambi kumlipa mwenzetu mishahara ya namna hiyo wakati tunashindwa kumlipa mwalimu wa shule ya msingi mshahara ambao utamtosheleza kwa mahitaji yake basic ya maisha.
Tunampa mtu bonasi ya dola 102000 wakati tunashindwa kuokoa maisha ya wakina mama lukuki wanapojifungua!
tunawapunguzia nini?

Tunashindwa? kwanini unaamini kuwa tunashindwa?
Tunashindwa? kwanini unaamini tunashindwa kuokoa maisha ya wakina mama wakijifungua?

You are asking rhetorical questions that don't serve any useful purpose. You (and everybody else) know very well that there are thousands of women and newborns all over Tanzania that lose their lives during childbirth due to inadequate health care. By the way, Tanroads appears to be a World Bank Project and there's good reason to believe the unusually high remuneration the CEO is paid for by WB.
Yeah yuko Sweden huyo mjinga mjinga ngedere magari
eee bana eee jamaa enzi zile mlikuwa washikaji sana (vita kwa ponjoro ndani ya bcs) hivi imekuwaje mazee?
Government faces Sh22bn Loss over Tanroads blunder
By Sunday Citizen Reporter
2009-06-15
Failure by Tanzania National Roads Agency (Tanroads) to comply with an arbitration ruling in a contract dispute with an Italian firm may cost the taxpayer a whopping Sh22 billion in damages, the Sunday Citizen can reveal.
The huge bill staring the Government in the face has arisen from a disagreement with Prismo-Badr, J. V., an Italian company, whose Sh23 billion road construction contract Tanroads cancelled last year.
The Attorney General's office in Dar es Salaam was reportedly frantically making efforts to seek a compromise with the company in a bid to save the Government face and avoid the hefty liability.
In a letter the AG's office sent to the ministry of Infrastructure Development on April 27, the officials advised that the matter be settled out of court. The AG is the principal legal adviser to the Government.
According to the letter, the AG has faulted Tanroads for failing to file an appeal against a ruling by an arbiter, who found the cancellation of Prismo's contract and seizure of the company's machinery illegal.
By not acting, Tanroads tacitly agreed to abide by the ruling of the arbiter who found both the agency and the company to have contravened their contractual obligations.
"In the circumstances, and given the fact that the claim is huge, we do advise the parties to have the matter settled out of court," the AG's letter to the permanent secretary for Infrastructure Development, reads in part.
The Italian firm served the Government a notice on March 11, to pay the amount in general, special and aggravated damages in compensation or face a showdown in court. The 90-day deadline elapsed last Thursday.
In the demand letter by Mkono and Company Advocates of Dar es Salaam, on behalf of Prismo- Badr J.V., sought Sh21.04 billion in damages and an additional Sh16.8 million daily, as the penalty accruing from the "idleness" of the impounded machinery. The latter has accumulated to Sh1.57 billion since the demand notice was lodged.
Contacted for comment yesterday, Tanroads Chief Executive Officer Ephraim Mrema would not confirm whether the agency had complied with the AG's advice.
Said Mr Mrema: "I can't tell you that because government business is not conducted like that. It remains our internal business that I am not obliged to discuss with reporters."
But he was disturbed about how the Sunday Citizen got to know about the communication to the agency from the AG's office.
He said: "If it is from the company, tell them we cannot be pushed. We will not work under pressure. Tanroads will only follow the law and existing regulations."
The Permanent Secretary for Infrastructure, Mr Omar Chambo, who is the ministry's accounting officer, could not be reached for comment. The minister, Mr Shukuru Kawambwa, and deputy minister Hezekiah Chebulunje were also unavailable.
Mkono and Company Advocates say their clients were left with no option but to demand damages after pleas to release their equipment fell on deaf ears.
'By seizing the goods, Tanroads committed the tort of trespass. The goods, which are our clients tools of trade, have been functionally ruined by physical interference at the time of and during the seizure."
The Italian firm says that it has been forced to lay off nearly 600 workers and has also lost an opportunity to participate in other civil contracting projects.
The nearly Sh22 billion being claimed by the firm in damages is some Sh2 billion more than what President Jakaya Kikwete announced would be used in a stimulus plan to finance farmers through the Tanzania Investment Bank (TIB).
It is also four times the amount of money the Government will forego in revenue due to royalty exemptions to gemstone miners, who have lost markets due to the global economic crisis.
According to road construction experts, the Sh22 billion would also be enough to build over 80kms of tarmac roads or upgrade to gravel level 1,000 kilometres of rural roads.
Prismo-Badr JV claims that its expulsion in March, last year, prevented it from completing a Sh23 billion project in Kilimanjaro Region.
It appealed to a dispute review expert (DRE), who ruled that the cancellation of the contract and seizure of its Sh8 billion equipment were unlawful.
Following the verdict of the DRE, appointed by the Paris-based International Chamber of Commerce, the contractor might be reinstated to complete the project, a public procurement expert says.
However, Tanroads engaged another contractor to upgrade the 31.2km Marangu-Rombo Mkuu and Mwika-Kilacha roads at a cost of Sh25 billion.
The new contract, awarded in May, last year, has yet to be implemented due to a legal tussle between Tanroads and the consulting engineers, Norconsult of Norway.
Deputy Infrastructure Development minister Chibulunje told Parliament last year that Prismo Universal Italiano S.P.A. and Badr East Africa Enterprises JV, were among firms whose contracts had been revoked.
He said Tanroads had also blacklisted China State Construction Engineering Corporation, Wesons Tanzania Limited and Shabridin and Co Ltd. As a result, the companies cannot be awarded construction tenders in the country.
