Nadharia ya Usalama wa Taifa (TISS) ibadilike kuanzia sasa, Taifa lipo hatarini

[FJM]

Hii taasis imefanya mambo mengi makubwa, huko nyuma, lakini kwa sasa ni muhimu sana ikaangaliwa kwa jicho la karibu na la kipekee ili iweze kukabiliana na ulimwengu wa sasa. Kuna makosa makubwa yamefanyika miaka ya karibuni kwenye 'recruitment', mafunzo na hata usimamizi mzima wa maofisa wake.

Zamani, hata ungemshikia bwana/bibi usalama panga, asingekubali kuwa yeye ni mtu wa usalama. Lakini leo kuna waha vodafasta wamezagaa kila mahali, wakijigamba wanakofanya kazi. Utendaji mbovu na 'kulundikiwa' watu wasio na uwezo wa kazi, naamini unawakatisha moyo hata wale watendaji wazuri. Mwisho wa siku Taasis nzima inaingia doa.

Kwa waliokula chumvi, kuna vichaa wengi sana walikuwa barabarani wakati wa Mwl Nyerere, na tetesi ni kwamba hao watu hawakuwa vichaa, bali watu wa usalama. Hata hivyo, kutokana na ueweledi uliokuwepo kipindi hicho, ilikuwa vigumu kupata ukweli, maana watu wa usalama hawakuwa wanaongea hovyo kama hawa wa siku hizi.

Kwa sasa hivi kuna milango iko wazi mno kwa adui kuingia kwenye 'damu' ya Tanzania. Kwa ujumla vipaumbele ni vya kupitia, siasa iondelewe, na pia tusiIgeuze hii taasis kuwa kama 'wambea wa mtaani kwetu', kwamba unata watu wachunguze fulani anasemaje kuhusu nguo yangu, au baiskeli yangu?

Pamoja na siasa zetu lazima tuwe na chombo imara kinachosimamia Tanzania.

 

[MTAZAMO]

Sheria hii pengine imechangia ubovu wa sasa wa TISS.Mh Zitto aliwahi kukiri kujaribu kupeleka mswada wa kubadili hii sheria lakini ikatupiliwa mbali(nguvu ya wanasiasa).

Wito wangu ni tushirikiane kusaidia wapiganaji wetu hawa waweze kufanya kazi yao vizuri ili wanaposhindwa tuwalaumu vizuri.mfano tumelalamika sana jinsi mambo mengi yanavyoharibika TISS wakiangalia tu lakini tukumbuke wao ni washauri tu hawana mamlaka ya kisheria kuchukua hatua.

Inashangaza Jeshi la Polisi kuwa na meno kuliko TISS ambao ni moyo wa nchi!

 

[FUSO]

Tatizo nadhani ni kule kutofahamika kwao, hata POLISI wangekuwa hawafahamiki, lazima tungekuwa tunaambiwa kuwa chizi fulani ni Polisi, lakini tutambue pia kuwa maendeleo ya sayansi na technolojia lazima yaende sambamba na mabadiliko ya mbinu za kiutendaji. Hivi kweli inawezakana Usalama wa taifa wakaendelea kutumia mbinu walizokuwa wakizitumia zamani? Labda siku moja wangejitokeza wakatueleza wanavyokabiliana na changamoto hii ya kukua kwa kasi kwa sayansi na technolojia.,La sivyo tutaendelea kuamini kuwa kwa vile hatuwaoni tena machizi basi na usalama wa taifa haupo.

mkuu kuhusu technologia ni kweli kabisa usalama wa taifa lazima wawe na vitengo vyote vya kisayansi - kwa mfano kitengo cha computer under TISS lazima kifanye utafiti wa kina juu ya wizi wa kutumia mtandao, kwa mfano ITM's.

Sasa hivi ni tatizo kubwa unakuta hela zimebebwa sasa taifa lazima liwe makini maana wananchi tunahaha kila siku kuhusu hiki kitu, lakini ni nani anahusika kutanzua ubadilifu huu? wenye ITM, Tume ya Mawasiliano au taifa? kama ni taifa nani anahusika? jibu ni TISS

Huu ni mfano mmoja pekee kwamba vitengo hivi lazima viendane na Technologia ya sasa, na ndiyo maana nchi zilizoendelea huchukua vijana wenye IQ kubwa na kusomeshwa na kuingizwa kwenye taasis nyeti.

 

[Lizaboni]

Well said mkuu,wenye macho waliangalie hili kwa ukaribu sana na wenye masikio
wasikie kwa umakini wa hali ya juu.

Naunga mkono 100%

 

[Yericko Nyerere]

mkuu yericko hebu kuwa wazi...
Tatizo ni leadership,watendaji,teknolojia duni au sheria?

Yote ni muhimu yakatazamwa, lakini muhimu zaidi ni sheria na teknolojia

 

[Yericko Nyerere]

Sheria hii pengine imechangia ubovu wa sasa wa TISS.Mh Zitto aliwahi kukiri kujaribu kupeleka mswada wa kubadili hii sheria lakini ikatupiliwa mbali(nguvu ya wanasiasa).

Wito wangu ni tushirikiane kusaidia wapiganaji wetu hawa waweze kufanya kazi yao vizuri ili wanaposhindwa tuwalaumu vizuri.mfano tumelalamika sana jinsi mambo mengi yanavyoharibika TISS wakiangalia tu lakini tukumbuke wao ni washauri tu hawana mamlaka ya kisheria kuchukua hatua.

Inashangaza Jeshi la Polisi kuwa na meno kuliko TISS ambao ni moyo wa nchi!

Tukiwashinikiza wabunge waliopo mitandaoni na wanaharakati wetu bila shaka wanaweza kulishawishi bunge kuiboresha sheria hii ambayo mimi naamini ni hatari kwa mstakabali wa nchi yetu hivi sasa.

Nadhani haya mawazo mazuri yanawafikia wahusika. Kuliko kuzilaumu hizi taasisi, tuwe tunazipa ushauri mzuri kama huu kwa vile hivi sasa taifa letu lina wataalamu wa kila aina hivyo tutumie taaluma zetu kuzishauri badala ya kulalamika kama wanasiasa na watu wasiyoitakia mema nchi yetu.

 

[Mystery]

usalama wa taifa wa kiukweli ulikuwa active under the late Mwalimu -- huu wa sasa unaegemea umekuwa kama usalama wa ccm.

Kwa mfano haya mambo ya rushwa za mabilioni , udini kuchinjana kwa imani za kidini, kuchoma makanisa, ukabila, ujangiri hadi watu wanatotosha twiga nje ya nchi, madawa ya kulevya, ushirikina (kuua maarubino) nk haya yanatakiwa yashughulikiwe na usalama wa taifa.

sasa ukiona vituko kama hivi unaweza kuhoji uwepo wa taasisi nyeti kama hii.

Umesema kweli tupu. Inwezekanaje usalama wa Taifa wawe mstari wa mbele kuishauri serikali kuivunja mikutano na maandamano ya wapinzani,kwa kisingizio cha taarifa za kiintelejinsia,zinazowajulisha kutakuwa na uvunjifu wa amani,wakati huo huo taarifa zao za kiintelejensia zishindwe kubaini kuwa wapo watu wana mpango wa kuua mapadri, kama vile walivyomuua Padri Mushi licha ya vipeperushi kusambazwa sehemu nyingi Zanzibar, vinavyoeleza wazi wazi dhamira ya watu hao kutaka kuwaua mapadri?!

Inawezekanaje usalama wa Taifa ujifanye kujiapiza kuwa watawatafuta na kuwachukulia hatua watu wote waliomtumia meseji, Spika Makinda kumtaka ajiuzulu wadhifa wake wa Uspika kutokana na kuipendelea wazi wazi CCM,lakini wakati huo huo washindwe kumkamata kinara wa kundi lililomteka na kumtesa Dr Ulimboka,licha ya usalama huo wa Taifa kurahisishiwa kazi na gazeti la Mwanahalisi, kwa kuianika hadharani namba ya simu ya huyo mtu huyo ambaye ndiye aliyekuwa wa mwisho kukutana na Dr Ulimboka, na hao watekaji wa Dr Ulimboka,walimteka mbele yake huyo mtu anayeitwa Ramadhni Ighondu?!

Ni dhahiri kuwa Usalama wa Taifa hauna tena hadhi, kama uliokuwa nao enzi zile za Mwalimu Nyerere,na badala yake kwa sasa unastahili kuitwa ni Usalama wa CCM, na ushahidi ulio wa wazi ni namna walivyovuruga matokeo ya Urais mwaka 2010,ambapo hata leo hii ukiwaendea NEC wakupe matokeo ya Urais ya mwaka 2010 kwa kukutajia idadi halisi ya kura alizopata kila mgombea wa Urais,kwa kila Kata,Wilaya hadi Mkoa, nina uhakika jibu la swali hilo ukilipeka NECTA kuhakikiwa kama ni sawa, nina uhakika, Tume ya uchaguzi itaambulia 'zero' kama walivyoambulia asilimia 60 ya vijana wetu waliohitimu kidato cha nne mwaka jana!!

 

[MTAZAMO]

Tukiwashinikiza wabunge waliopo mitandaoni na wanaharakati wetu bila shaka wanaweza kulishawishi bunge kuiboresha sheria hii ambayo mimi naamini ni hatari kwa mstakabali wa nchi yetu hivi sasa.

Tatizo wabunge wengi wanapenda hoja zitakazowapa umaarufu kwa wapiga kura,tuanze na wabunge wa Chadema iwe moja ya ajenda bunge lijalo na specifically nimuombe mh Zitto arudishe tena hii ngoma nadhani madhara yaliyokwisha tokea yanaweza kuwa funzo kubwa kwetu na hawa wanasiasa.

 

[Khakha]

Nadhani suala la mtumishi kuongelea masuala ya ofisni kwake akiwa njwi ni HULKA ya mtu na sidhani kama ni hao wafanyakazi wa TISS pekee bali hata OFISI zingine ziwe za serikali na hata binafsi huwezi kuwakosa watu wa aina hiyo. Kuna mtaalam mmoja alisema ukiona mtu anaongea sana na kujifanya anajua ujue huyo ndo hajui kitu. Ni ukweli usiopingika kuwa watu wengi ambao wanajifanya kujua sana mambo mara nyingi wanakuwa ni waropokaji tu.

mkuu nakubali kuwa ni hulka ya mtu akiwa njwii kuongelea masuala ya kazi yake after being intoxicated. hata rafiki yangu niliye mrefer alikuwa anakunywa moja moto moja baridi. lkn ilikuwa kwa nidhamu. well tunaweza sema enzi hizo bar zilikuwa chache na wao walikuwa na bar zao. lkn nchi za wenzetu ambao tunajifunza mambo kutoka kwao wameweza kudhibiti hivi vitu. why not us mkuu?

 

[Getstart]

Sikubaliani na maoni yanayotolewa na hasa yanayotaka TISS wapewe 'meno'. Sijui ni meno gani yanatakiwa lakini nafikiri ni lazima yaambatane na objective ya taasisi hiyo. Chombo Kama hiki kazi yake kubwa ni kukusanya na kuchambua taarifa (intelligence gathering and analysis) na kuzipeleka/kushauri wahusika kuchukua hatua. Hatua zinazotakiwa zinachukuliwa na vyombo husika ambavyo kisheria vimepewa mamlaka k.m. Polisi. Nafikiri mfano mzuri soma gazeti la Raia Mwema taarifa za Chahari na tishio la usalama wake huko Uingereza. Waliopata taarifa hizo ni idara Yao ya ujasusi (MI5/6) lakini waliomfikishia taarifa na kumhakikishia ulinzi ni Polisi.

Hata hivyo ushauri ingekuwa ni sheria imlazimishe anayeshindwa kuchukua hatua kwa ushauri wa taarifa sahihi za usalama au anayechukua hatua zisizotakiwa wakati Ana taarifa na ushauri sahihi wa taasisi hii hawajibike. Ili hii iwe na maana chombo hiki kinatakiwa kiimarishwe lakini pia kitenganishwe na siasa ya kivyama.

 

[Yericko Nyerere]

Tatizo wabunge wengi wanapenda hoja zitakazowapa umaarufu kwa wapiga kura,tuanze na wabunge wa Chadema iwe moja ya ajenda bunge lijalo na specifically nimuombe mh Zitto arudishe tena hii ngoma nadhani madhara yaliyokwisha tokea yanaweza kuwa funzo kubwa kwetu na hawa wanasiasa.

Vema, sio wachadema tu, suala hili ni nyeti na linagusa matakwa ya rais mojakwamoja hvyo linahitaji kuungwa mkono na zaidi ya nusu ya eabunge wa ccm ili litimie,

Libebwe kuwa la kitaifa sio la umimi.

 

[Lizaboni]

Nadhani hii ni changamoto kaka, hakika hapo umenena, lakini siamini kama ni hao TISS pekee ndo wana hiyo hullka, sasa tukisema wawe na baa zao, itabidi kila idara idara hata zile zisizo za kiserikali ziwe na baa zao kwa sababu watu wa hulka hiyo wako kotekote.

 

[Ndinani]

Tatizo kubwa wanalo wale wanaoamua kitu gani kitendeke au ushauri gani ufanyiwe kazi!! Watawala wa nchi yetu hawaambiliki; mara nyingi hawafuati ushauri !!! Hata katika uteuzi wa watendaji hali ni hiyo hiyo, mawaziri watapendekeza watu wanaoona wanafaa kufanya nao kazi lakini atateuliwa mtu baki kabisa ambae hakuwa short-listed!! Inawapelekea hata watoa ushsuri wawe demoralized!!

 

[bantulile]

Bado watu hatumjui nani hasa adui yetu TISS wanalalamika wanaingiliwa na wanasiasa, Afya, Elimu, Ujenzi. Kwa ujumla kila nyanja inalalamikia siasa. Wanasiasa ndiyo walioanza kutumia vibaya nafasi zao ndipo ugonjwa huu ulipoanza kusambaa kwenda taaluma mbalimbali. Watu walianza kuhoji iweje mwanasiasa darasa la saba tu awe na maisha bora zaidi kuliko msomi kama Daktari au Mhandisi? Relative economy au equity. Wataalam waadilifu kabisa wakaanza kula rushwa na kudai mishahara mikubwa, uzalendo ukafa sababu ya wanasiasa.
Mapinduzi katika jamii ni jambo endelevu kadiri maisha yanavyoendelea kwa kuwa mtetezi wa leo akipewa madaraka hugeuka na kuwa mkandamizaji pia, hivyo kila inapobainika kuwa amegeuka sio mtetezi wa jamii tena aondolewe mara moja bila kusubiri. Anaweza kuondolewa kupitia sanduku la kura au mapinduzi ya aina yoyote ya nguvu, kamwe tusifikirie kuna siku ataona huruma.

Mengi yatasemwa kuhusu Taasisi hiyo nyeti, lakini nadhani wengi hatujui inavyofanyakazi zake unajua jambo usilolijua ni kama usiku wa giza, nakumbuka kuna kipndi fulani jamaa mmoja aliposti Kitabu chake hapa JF akielezea namna ambavyo idara ya usalama wa taifa ilivyofanyakazi zake na akatahadharisha kuwa watu tusiojua namna ambavyo taasisi hiyo inafanyakazi tunaweza kufikiri kuwa imelala jambo ambalo si kweli. Binafsi nilipenda sana ile post, sijui yule jamaa yuko wapi ingefaa atuekee tena kile kitabu hapa ili tuwe angalau tunapata uwelewa badala ya kupaki tunalalama tu.

 

[MTK]

Sio kweli hata kidogo kwamba mapungufu yanayojidhihirisha katika utendaji wa TISS yanatokana na udhaifu katika kipengele kimoja cha sheria ulichokitaja la hasha!!

tatizo kubwa nafikiri ni mmomonyoko wa maadili miongoni mwetu sisi wote watanzania, kila mtu kaingiwa na pepo la roho ya chukua chako mapema (CCM) na hiyo sio TISS peke yake!

Udhaifu huo uko CAG, TRA, THA, TAKUKURU, mawizarani, mashirika ya umma na yasiyo ya umma, makanisani; kila mtu ni kutafuta mwanya wa kutafuna mapema.

kwa hiyo wanasiasa wanatumia falsafa hiyo ya kula kula; wameiingilia TISS na taasisi nyingine za ulinzi na usalama ili ziwasaidie kulinda maslahi yao na huo ni mwanya (loophole) kwa TISS nao kufanya watakavyo kwa sababu wanaostahili kuwahold in check nao wanaharibu vivyo hivyo!! kwani TISS wao ni mifupa hawana roho na mahitaji?!

Usalama wa taifa umegeuzwa kuwa usalama wa walioshika mpini (SERIKALI); kwa maslahi ya wachache.

A stroke of a pen haiwezi kubadilisha maono na malengo ya watumishi wa TISS na tasisi nyingine nyeti katika taifa letu;

Watanzania wote tubadilike; tusipende taifa tulitakalo lijengwe na TISS peke yao, what is our role in the whole quagmire??!

 

[Lizaboni]

Tatizo kubwa wanalo wale wanaoamua kitu gani kitendeke au ushauri gani ufanyiwe kazi!! Watawala wa nchi yetu hawaambiliki; mara nyingi hawafuati ushauri !!!

Inawapelekea hata watoa ushsuri wawe demoralized!!

Duh! unaongea kama mmoja wa watoa ushauri vile?

 

[Kiranga]

Usalama wa Taifa wameshindwa hata kudhibiti njaa nchini.

Nimeweka kipengele hicho kama mfano tu wa mapungufu yaliyomo,

Jambo jema ni kuw tunakubaliana kuwa kuna mapungufu na yanahitaji juhudi za haraka

Anaependa anaweza kusoma sehemu ya sheria zinazounda taasisi hii.Hii itatusaidia kupata picha flani ya wanachotakiwa kukifanya hawa ndugu zetu. Hebu check hapa!
