Tanzania’s enemies of the state: pregnant young women
Tanzania’s enemies of the state: pregnant young women The country’s president has condemned teenage girls who become pregnant as ‘immoral’, banning them from ever returning to school Authoritarian stance: President John Magufuli, pictured on an election poster © Getty Share on Twitter (opens new window) Share on Facebook (opens new window) Share on LinkedIn (opens new window) Save to myFT John Aglionby October 11, 2017 13 In May, when Sarah (not her real name) was about 15 weeks pregnant, she dropped out of state secondary school in the Shinyanga region of northern Tanzania. “It was difficult to continue because of my appearance,” explains the diminutive 17-year-old, who is due to give birth any day. “The environment was really uncomfortable. There was no support.” Exacerbating the situation were the circumstances in which she became pregnant. “I was raped by my brother-in-law, but my sister said, ‘You’re lying — my husband would never rape anyone’,” Sarah explains. “I was beaten at my house. I was not provided with food. They were ashamed I was pregnant.” She is one of 100 teenage girls studying at the Agape Knowledge Open School in Chibe, a village, 10km north of Shinyanga town. All the girls there have been abused, had babies, been rescued from child marriage, or experienced a combination of all three. Even had Sarah wanted to remain at her state school, she would only have been able to continue for another month. In June, John Magufuli, Tanzania’s president, announced that no pregnant girl would be allowed to study in a state school, nor readmitted after giving birth. “As long as I am president no pregnant student will be allowed to return to school,” he said, reacting to a debate in parliament. “We cannot allow this immoral behaviour to permeate our primary and secondary schools. After getting pregnant, you are done.” The president’s intervention reversed the slow but steady progress in girls’ rights made under his predecessor, Jakaya Kikwete. It also highlighted the scale not only of teen pregnancies in Tanzania, but the broader issues of child marriage and girls’ rights.

Hiyo ya Kenya imeanza kazi 31/05/2017 hii ya Tz ina tegemewa kuanza kazi June 2019. Wewe kaa mkao wa kula mid 2020 una eza uka fika Dom ndani ya masaa mawili na nusu.

Kwani mashindano kaka? Mbona hata kwenye individual level, wengine wanajenga nyumba wakiwa 20s wengine 30s wengine 40 etc. Kila mtu anajenga kulingana na uwezo na fursa. Siku zote jilinganishe na malengo yako uliojiwekea, plans - to - actual investigation.
