mwaitege Elizabeth Suleyman

MSANII nyota wa muziki wa Injili nchini, Boniface Mwaitege amekiri kuwepo kwa baadhi ya wasanii ambao wamekuwa na tabia ya kutoa taarifa mbaya kwa lengo la kuwachafulia wengine wakiwa na lengo la kuharibu heshima waliyojijengea kwa jamii.

Akizungumza na Starehe msanii huyo ambaye aliwahi kutamba na kibao chake cha kwanza cha �Utanitambuaje� anabainisha kwamba kitendo kama hicho kinachofanywa na baadhi ya wasanii hakimpendezi Mungu kwani ni kuchafuliana tu majina.

�Kitendo cha baadhi ya wasanii, kutoa taarifa ambazo sio sahihi kwa watu na watu hao ..huzisambaza bila kufanya uchunguzi ni kuchafuliana majina tu na si kingine,�anasema Mwaitege

Anaongeza kuwa, mbali na kuwachafua wasanii pia huathiri mashabiki hususani wanaoishi vijijini ambao wengi wao hawajui kutofautisha gazeti la udaku na �siriazi�.

�Hivyo wanapoipata taarifa kama hiyo, imevumishwa kwenye vyombo vya habari anaichukua kama ilivyo na kuanza kuifanyia kazi na matokeo yake anakata tamaa ya kukusikiliza,� anasema

Pia anafafanua kuwa, kitendo hicho kinapoteza mashabiki kwa wasanii kwasababu wao ndiyo wanaowafanya wasanii kupata chochote, hivyo anaposikia taarifa mbaya kutoka kwako anapunguza ushabiki kwako.

�Hususani wanaoishi maeneo ya vijijini, ambapo wanaweza wakakuona hauko siriazi na kazi unayoifanya, kumbe ni hujuma tu! zinazofanywa na baadhi ya wasanii kwa lengo la kukushushia kiwango,� anasema

Msanii huyo anaongeza kwa kuwataka wale wote wanaopokea taarifa mbaya za uvumi kutoka kwa wasanii, bila kufanyia uchunguzi ni kubeba mzigo wa lawama kwa watu, na kwamba wasipoangalia na kuwa makini wataendelea kupokea taarifa za majungu bila kujijua.

Russian Klitschko accused of conning fans
Wednesday, 22 December 2010 22:01

London. Wladimir Klitschko has been accused of trying to con fight fans by insisting he is ready to face David Haye.
The WBA and IBF world heavyweight champion's demands for a 50-50 revenue split and for the bout to be screened by German broadcaster RTL have been agreed by Haye's manager and trainer Adam Booth.

But so far Klitschko has refused to sign on the dotted line, with his manager Bernd Boente insisting there is no point in agreeing a fight contract.
Both camps are well aware of the situation because Booth has copied them into all email exchanges between himself and Boente.
Furious Booth blasted: "Boente, on behalf of Wladimir, has demanded a 50-50 split of all revenue to which we have agreed - that includes money generated by Sky TV here in England.

"He also demanded the fight be screed in Germany by RTL even if ARD, our own broadcaster in Germany, offered more money - we have also agreed to that. "I could not get to Berlin to negotiate face-to-face with Boente because of the obvious travel problems and email could have provided the perfect solution. "Boente wanted all the money agreed by January 4 and we are able to meet his deadline - but I am told that he has now flown off on holiday to Miami until January 21.
"What perturbs me is that in all emails from Boente he either starts or finishes with 'there is no point in negotiating'.

"Yet overnight, Vitali Klitschko says his brother Wlad is ready to fight David - I am wondering what kind of game they are playing. (AFP)
"We have agreed to all of Klitschko's demands, yet we are being told there is no point in negotiating.
"Fans out there have every right to feel they might be being misled by some of the statements that are coming out.

"Boente is telling me they are ready to do the fight with Dereck Chisora - which was postponed because of an injury to Wlad - and that we should start talking to other interested parties.
"It leaves a bit of a sour taste so now I have asked Wladimir whether he wants this fight. Al I want from them is a straight yes of no.

"If he says yes, then fine, let's do it. If the answer is no, then the whole of the boxing world needs to know just who is saying what."
Wladimir currently holds the IBF and WBO versions of the world crown, while his elder brother Vitali is the WBC champion.
They want Haye's WBA crown to complete a clean sweep and Vitali said: "It is always Haye who comes up with the excuses.

"Last year we had a signed contract and that wasn't enough. Haye has the last remaining title that doesn't belong to a Klitschko.
"There are no problems with us to make a fight with Haye."
But Booth dismissed the Ukrainian's version of events. He responded: "Some people might think the opposite to what Vitali is saying.
"If any TV station out there - RTL, Sky or anyone else - wants to know the true state of affairs, I suggest they contact me."

Nyilawila risks being stripped of WBF title
Wednesday, 15 December 2010 23:22

By Majuto Omary
The Citizen Reporter
Dar es Salaam. Newly crowned World Boxing Federation (WBF) middleweight champion Tanzanian Karama Nyilawila now risks being stripped of his title, it has been disclosed.
Nyilawila is required to swing back in action this month to defend his title, but the Pugilist Syndicate of Tanzania (PST) says it cannot afford to raise the money WBF needs to sanction the fight. PST president Emmanuel Mlundwa admitted yesterday that they were racing against time to raise the money needed to pay sanction fees.

"WBF needs about Sh7.5 million ($5,000) to sanction the bout. We can't afford to raise that amount because our boxing body is in financial crisis," said Mlundwa. Nyilawila, one of the best middleweight pugilists in the country at the moment, won the WBF title in the Czech Republic recently at the expense of Kreshnik Qato.

Mlundwa said they are working round the clock to ensure the boxer defends his title abroad instead of Tanzania because many local boxers are reluctant to bankroll the fight.

The middleweight boxer is now rated 43rd in the world. Ireland's boxer Anthony Fitzgerald, who is the WBF Inter-Continental champion, is among the boxers likely to challenge the Tanzania for the title.

Fitzgerald has a record of 10 wins with two defeats.
Mlundwa appealed to firms, boxing stakeholders and well wishers for financial support, saying that is the only way to rescue the boxer from being stripped of title.

Khan tipped to match Hutton greatness after WBA victory
Tuesday, 14 December 2010 23:01

Las Vegas. Oscar De La Hoya claims Amir Khan can be as big in America as Ricky Hatton.
The Hitman was the king of Vegas and the Brit invasion he led became folklore.
Hailing Khan's sensational win over Marcos Maidana to retain his WBA light-welterweight crown as "the fight of the year", De La Hoya said: "Amir can be like Ricky. There's no doubt about. He's got the whole package.

"Like Ricky, he's a fighter who is as charismatic outside the ring as inside. He knows how to fight, he knows how to please the crowd, he knows what people want.
"That's what makes him a true great in the making.
"For me, he showed all that against Maidana. Winning means his next fight here in Vegas can be huge. Now it's about him continuing along that path to glory."
Before Khan left for his precautionary brain scan, he posed in the ring with his WBA 140-pound title belt-along with two bruised eyes, scars on his chest and dried blood still stuck to his lip and front teeth.

That's what a real boxer looks like, and the flashy British star proved he's extremely real in a grinding victory over Maidana.
Khan (24-1, 17 KOs) outboxed the Argentine slugger in the early rounds and survived a brutal onslaught on his feet in the 10th round, holding on for a unanimous decision. Although the Mandalay Bay Events Centre was only about half-full for his Las Vegas debut, nobody in attendance could doubt Khan had taken the best shots of a ferocious puncher and survived.

Now that Khan has the tough-guy credentials many doubted he could ever earn, along with a major boost for his stateside fame, he can return to his new home in Bolton. He deserves a December break after nearly four months of training that took him from Hollywood to the Philippines, where he sparred with fellow Freddie Roach pupil Manny Pacquiao.(AFP)

Taifa Stars motivated

By DAILY NEWS reporter, 29th December 2010 @ 12:00,


TAIFA Stars players have been challenged and inspired to win the inaugural Nile Basin soccer tournament, kicking off in Cairo, Egypt on Wednesday.

Deputy Minister for Information, Youth, Culture and Sports Fenella Mukangara paid an impromptu visit to the team's evening training session at the Uhuru Stadium in Dar es Salaam and she gave players an uplifting message.

She told them to use the Mainland's Kilimanjaro Stars recent victory in the Cecafa Challenge Cup as a motivation and go all the way to lift the trophy in Egypt.

Mukangara said the secret to victory is wining spirit, saying such was highly demonstrated by Kilimanjaro Stars and she believes that Taifa Stars are capable of doing the same.

She said the government was behind the team and will continue to provide support whenever approached.

Taifa Stars will depart for Cairo on Sunday ready for the championships, which is organized and sponsored by the Egyptian Football Association.

The tournament will bring together nine countries including hosts Egypt, Kenya, Rwanda, Burundi, Congo, Eritrea, Ethiopia and Sudan.

The objective of the Nile Basin soccer tournament was to create awareness among all countries sharing the Nile Basin, to safeguard the water resource for the benefit of future generations.

The Egyptians will cater for the air tickets and full board accommodation for all the visiting teams according to the invitation letter from the Egyptian FA president Samir Hazel.

According to draw conducted in Cairo a week ago, Taifa Stars will open their campaign against the hosts ‘Pharaohs' on Wednesday, the match that will kick off at 7pm.

It will be preceded by a match to pit Kenya and Sudan at 4:30pm. Stars next game will be against Sudan on January 11, before facing Kenya on January 14 and they will conclude their campaign on January 17 against Uganda Cranes.

Angela Bondo talk show starts with BBA4 duo

By ORTON KIISHWEKO, 29th December 2010 @ 11:00, Total Comments: 0, Hits: 66

IT was a dream come true for TV presenter-turned talk show host Angela Bondo when she hosted her debut recording of the Angela Bondo show in Dar es Salaam on Tuesday night.

Thriving on her dream to follow on Oprah Winfrey's path at Tanzania's level, she thanked her supporters for having helped her achieve her life's ‘reverie'.

The show was honoured by the first ever appearance of Nigeria's Big Brother Africa4 winner Kevin Chuwang Pam and his former housemate and now wife to be, Tanzania's Elizabeth Gupta, who he already engaged in August this year.

Well dressed and easily approachable even with his somewhat intimidating intellectual precision, Kevin has come to represent what most young people his age only dream of attaining.

You would think he were done too, ready to sit back and enjoy his new love Elizabeth and all. Instead, Kevin has gone on to enlist new pursuits to his growing list of projects; a Non Government Organisation dealing with conflict, music projects, event management business among others.

Well dressed and cultured in manner, the young man jokes as much in the same measure as he dreams big.

A winner for BBA4 though he may be now, Kevin maintained, during Tuesday's talk show Interview that his major objective of joining the BBA House was to shape his experiences, working on the Chinese adage, ‘teach a man how to fish.' Elizabeth explained the ‘little' but important things he loved about Kevin from their days in the house.

"He was cleaner than even the girls, he had elements of having grown up in a good family value upbringing, he loves God and respects women," she said amid applause from the audience.

The first recording of the show used their love story which will culminate into marriage in a few days, to educate young people to work hard for their dreams and study people they would want to spend their lives with.

It showed how the BBA voyeuristic entertainer over the last few years has created a perfect love match in the couple, expected to get married soon.

TID energetically performed his single in a fun field minutes which influenced the audience to stand up and sing in unison as they awaited Kevin's appearance. Kevin and Elizabeth together performed their new single titled ‘Tunapata Mambo' thrilling the audience, before his four sisters joined the stage for introduction to the audience.

Kevin has already released singles of his debut album, "Wok Pichak" featuring Stitched, "Una Pata Mambo" featuring Stitched and Elizabeth, "Thank You" and "Dance Hall Nice" are already getting airplay on the radio back home.

After the show, the party headed from the show hall at Paradise City Hotel to Savannah Lounge at the third floor of Benjamin Mkapa towers.

But it did not end there as the crowd moved over to Club Bilicanas to epitomise a perfect night with the launch of TID's album, ‘Sifai'.

Mohamed has shown good standard although he need more support in order to reach the highest shandard like his father, Rashid and others in the Mzee Matumla family.

Bundi bado airandia Yanga


Na Elizabeth Mayemba

BUNDI ameanza kuranda tena ndani ya klabu ya Yanga, baada ya kundi la wanachama wenye nguvu ndani ya klabu hiyo, kupanga kumwandikia barua Mwenyekiti wa klabu hiyo, Llyod Nchunga ili aachie ngazi.Hatua hiyo imekuja siku chache, baada ya
wachezaji wa klabu hiyo kuitisha mgomo ili walipwe fedha zao za usajili.

Habari zilizopatikana Dar es Salaam jana ndani ya klabu hiyo, zinadai kuwa wanachama hao walisema Mwenyekiti huyo ameshindwa kuiongoza klabu hiyo, hivyo ni vyema akajiuzulu mwenyewe kwa maslahi ya klabu na wana-Yanga wote.

"Jana baadhi ya wanachama tulikuwa na kikao cha faragha na wote kwa kauli moja, tulipendekeza kumwandikia barua Nchunga ili atuachie Yanga yetu, tunaona wazi hawezi kuongoza," alisema mmoja wa wanachama hao.

Alisema haikuwahi kutokea hata siku moja wachezaji kugoma na mara nyingi walikuwa wakidai mishahara, ambapo viongozi walikuwa wakikaa na wachezaji kabla mambo hayajaharibika na kuwatuliza, lakini wanashanga kuona, Nchunga anasubiri wachezaji wagome ndiyo atafute suluhu.

Naye mwanachama mwingine ambaye hakupenda kuandikwa jina lake gazetini alisema, kwa kuwa Shirikisho la Mpira wa Miguu Tanzania (TFF), lilipiga marufuku kufanya mapinduzi ya uongozi, wameona watumie busara kumwandikia barua Mwenyekiti huyo, ili ajiuzulu mwenyewe.

Alisema hawakupenda wafikie hatua hiyo, lakini wanaona kila siku mambo yanazidi kuharibika hivyo ni bora awaachie Yanga yao, waje viongozi ambao wataweza kuongoza.

Hata hivyo Nchunga alipopigiwa simu yake ya mkononi ili kujibu tuhuma za wanachama wake, simu yake iliita bila kupokelewa.

Na Mohamed Akida

TIMU ya vijana wenye umri wa miaka 20 ya Simba B, juzi ilikalia usukani wa kundi B katika michuano ya Uhai Cup inayoshirikiha timu za vijana za klabu zinazoshiriki Ligi Kuu Tanzania Bara, baada ya kuifunga Toto Afrika mabao 3-1 inayofanyika
Uwanja Karume, Dar es Salaam.

Katika mchezo huo licha ya Simba, kuibuka na ushindi huo mnono lakini ilionesha kandanda safi kiasi cha kufanya mashabiki wake waliofurika uwanjani hapo kuwashangilia kila wakati.

Ikicheza pasi fupi fupi, Simba iliandika bao la kwanza dakika ya 14 kupitia kwa Haruna Athumani, kwa shuti kali ambalo lilikwenda moja kwa moja wavuni.

Simba ilipata bao la pili katika dakika ya 44 lililofungwa, Edward Cristopher na kuifanya timu hiyo kwenda mapumziko ikiwa na mabao hayo mawili.

Kipindi cha pili Toto Afrika, ambayo sehemu yake ya ushambuliaji iliingia kwa nguvu na kuliandama lango la wapinzani wake mara kadhaa, lakini hata hivyo washambuliaji wake hawakuwa makini kufunga mabao.

Simba nayo ilizidi kutakata na katika dakika ya 65, ilifunga mabao la 3-1 kupitia kwa winga wake Ramadhani Yahya, ambaye aliwalamba chenga walinzi wa Toto na kufunga kirahisi.

Toto Afrika licha ya kufungwa mabao hayo, wachezaji wake walijituma kwa nguvu kutaka kupata mabao na katika dakika ya 75 jitihada zao zilizaa matunda, baada ya kupata bao la kufutia machozi lililofungwa na Sebastian Bahati aliyepiga shuti lililombabatiza beki wa Simba na kutinga wavuni.

Simba ambayo ndiyo kinara wa kundi hilo kesho itapambana na Yanga yenye pointi.

Na Addolph Bruno

TIMU ya vijana wenye umri chini ya miaka 20 ya Mtibwa, jana iliianza vyema michuano ya Uhai Cup baada ya kuifunga Majimaji mabao 4-0.Michuano hiyo inashirikisha timu za vijana za klabu zinazoshiriki Ligi Kuu Tanzania, inachezwa katika
Uwanja wa Karume Dar es Salaam.

Mtibwa iliuanza mchezo huo kwa nguvu na kufanikiwa kupata bao la kwanza dakika 26, kupitia kwa Michael Mgimwa.

Baada ya kufungwa bao hilo, Majimaji nayo ilijikakamua kutaka kusawazisha bao hilo, lakini hata hivyo juhudi zao zilishindwa kuzaa matunda baada ya mabeki wa Mtibwa kuondoa hatari zote.

Kipindi cha pili Mtibwa walikianza tena kwa kasi kwa kuliandama mfululizo lango la Majimaji na dakika ya 54 iliandika bao la pili, lililofungwa na Mgimwa baada ya kumlamba chenga kipa, Rajabu Mtamila na kufunga kirahisi.

Licha ya kufungwa mabao hayo Majimaji, ilitulia na kucheza kwa kasi lakini hata hivyo washambuliaji wake walishindwa kuzitumia nafasi walizozipata.Bao la tatu la Mtibwa lilifungwa dakika ya 74 na Mgimwa kwa mkwaju wa penalti, ambayo ilitolewa na mwamuzi baada ya kipa wa Majimaji kumchezea vibaya Hamis Mroki, huku bao la nne likifungwa dakika ya 80 na Mgimwa ambaye jana alikuwa nyota ya mchezo kwa shuti kali la karibu

Balotelli: Mambo shwari Man City


LONDON, England

MSHAMBULIAJI, Mario Balotelli amesema kwamba anajisikia furaha akiwa Manchester City na akajitetea kuhusu kutoshangilia, wakati anapofunga mabao.Mchezaji huyo wa timu ya taifa ya Italia, juzi aliifungia mabao matatu katika mchezo ambao
timu hiyo iliibuka na ushindi wa mabao 4-0 dhidi ya Aston Villa, lakini akashindwa kushangalia alipokuwa akipachika mabao hayo.

Mabao hayo yamemfanya, Balotelli kufikisha mabao manane katika michezo 11 aliyoichezea timu hiyo, tangu ajiunge nayo akitokea Inter Milan, lakini mchezaji huyo mwenye umri wa miaka 20 anasema kufunga mabao ni sehemu rahisi katika kazi yake.

"Mara zote huwa nafurahi licha ya kuwa sitoi tabasamu," aliiambia tovuti ya klabu."Lakini najihisi kuwa mshambuliaji ninapokuwa nimefunga mabao na hii ndiyo maana huwa sitabasamu," aliongeza na akasema kuwa bado anajisikia mwenye furaha na anaweza kufunga mabao zaidi.

Kukosa kushangilia kwa nyota huyo kumezua tetesi za kuwa huenda anakabiliwa na ugonjwa wa kuwaza nyumbani lakini, Balotelli anapinga vikali madai hayo ya kwamba hajisikii vizuri kukaa Manchester City.

"Najisikia mwenye furaha kubwa, licha ya waandishi wa habari wa Italia kusema kuwa nataka kurudi Milan," alisema."Nipo mahali hapa nitajituma kwa nguvu mazoezini, nahitaji kuwa mtu muhimu katika timu hii na matokeo yatakuwa uwanjani," aliongeza.

Kiwango cha Balotelli, kimemuweka njia panda kocha wa timu hiyo, Roberto Mancini katika uteuzi wa kikosi chake kwa ajili ya mechi ya Jumamosi dhidi ya Blackpool wakati nahodha wa timu hiyo, Carlos Tevez akitarajiwa kurejea uwanjani baada ya kupumzishwa wakati wa mechi dhidi ya Aston Villa.

Michael Jackson autopsy show 'in bad taste'

Michael Jackson died in June 2009 aged 50
Discovery Channel to cancel plans for a programme claiming to re-enact the late singer's autopsy. John Branca and John McClain said the show was "in shockingly bad taste".
In a letter, the pair accused the company of being motivated by "blind desire" to exploit the singer's death.
The show - entitled Michael Jackson's Autopsy: What Really Killed Michael Jackson - is scheduled to be broadcast in Europe in January.
"Your decision to even schedule this programme is in shockingly bad taste and insensitive to Michael's family," the co-executors wrote.
"On behalf of Michael's family, fans, common sense and decency, we urge you to reconsider and cancel this programme," they added.
An advertisement used to promote the show reportedly depicts a body covered by a sheet with one hand wearing the singer's trademark sequined glove visible.
"Discovery obviously views this as clever advertising and creative 'branding' for its programme," Branca and McClain continued.
"In fact, the ad is debased, sick and insensitive."
Dr Conrad Murray has pleaded not guilty to involuntary manslaughter
Discovery Communications declined to comment on the letter, the Reuters news agency reported.
Meanwhile, lawyers for the doctor facing trial for involuntary manslaughter over Jackson's death may suggest the singer killed himself, a prosecutor has claimed.
In a court session to discuss evidence in the case against Dr Conrad Murray, Deputy District Attorney David Walgren said he believed defence lawyers were looking into the theory.
"They don't want to say it but that's the direction in which they are going," he said on Wednesday.
Outside the Los Angeles courtroom, defence lawyer J Michael Flanagan declined to comment and said lawyers were still investigating the case.
A preliminary hearing is scheduled to begin on 4 January where it will be decided if there is sufficient evidence to hold Dr Murray for trial.
Dr Murray has repeatedly denied causing Jackson's death.

Joe Jackson initially filed the legal action in June
Continue reading the main story
Michael Jackson's father has refiled a wrongful death claim against the late singer's doctor in a Los Angeles court.
Joe Jackson is seeking damages from Dr Conrad Murray, who has pleaded not guilty in a separate criminal case to involuntary manslaughter of the singer.
Mr Jackson has added as a defendant a Las Vegas pharmacy that sold the doctor a powerful anaesthetic blamed for Jackson's death in Los Angeles in 2009.
Coroners blamed Jackson's death on intoxication from the drug propofol.
Court records show the anaesthetic was sold by Applied Pharmacy Services the month before the singer's death.
Mr Jackson has accused the pharmacy of selling Dr Murray excessive quantities of propofol, which is normally administered in hospital settings.
But authorities have said the sale was legal as a doctor licensed in two states can buy propofol in one and administer it in another.
Dr Murray is licensed in California, Nevada and Texas.
"Much to discover" Mr Jackson initially filed the legal action against Dr Murray in federal court on 25 June, the anniversary of his son's death, but a judge ruled that it should be handled in state court, where it was refiled on Tuesday.
Mr Jackson's attorney Brian Oxman said the facts of the singer's death had been "way too slow in emerging" adding there was "still much to discover".
Mr Jackson claims Dr Murray was negligent in administering propofol to Jackson, and that he did not tell paramedics or an emergency room doctor that he had given the singer the drug.
Dr Murray admits administering the drug to Jackson on the day he died but denies any wrongdoing, saying he had been injecting him with the drug to help him sleep.
Dr Murray is due in court in the new year to face criminal charges.
