Haya hizi hapa taarifa za mwezi huu huu, yaani Museveni kiboko, ndiye kiongozi wa kweli anayefanya maamuzi magumu bila kupepesa macho, ameweka jeshi (army - UPDF) kabisa dhidi ya Watanzania wenye njaa kali mnaong'ang'ania kuingia kwake. Kimsingi mnatengwa na kila jirani, hatuhoji nyie kujichokea kwa vita dhidi ya corona ila tunasema mbaki huko huko mkitaka mjifie na kuacha kutusumbua.
Kila anayeshindwa kuvumilia njaa na kuvuka mpaka, basi awe tayari kupanua mdomo atumbukizwe kifaa cha kupima corona, ila wengi wanaopimwa wanakutwa nacho, yaani mnaogelea kwa kirusi na ndio mlishatelekezwa, kila mmoja anahangaika na kuifanya siri ya ndani, leo hii hakuna Mtanzania anayeweza kuthubutu kujitokeza atangaze kwamba anaumwa corona, atatukanwa sana na kufokewa nchi yote.

Uganda clamps down on trade at Tanzanian border

Ugandans have been told to wear masks in public places but Tanzanians have not
Uganda is clamping down on informal cross border trade with Tanzania and the unregulated movement of people between the countries, to prevent the spread of coronavirus, in a region where cases of infection have increased.
People living in the Rakai District of Uganda and Missenyi in Tanzania tend to ignore border regulations because they live as one community, with families having relatives on both sides.
Cross border trade and travel is centred on the town of Mutukula, but people also use unregulated roads, which makes the movement of goods and people between both countries hard to monitor.
Some 20 people have recently tested positive for Covid-19 in the region on the Uganda side, after returning from Tanzania.
Now, in order to ensure trade continues, while limiting new cases of infection, the authorities in Uganda's Rakai district have banned cross border travel, unless it is for business.
The clamp down is being enforced by the Ugandan army, with soldiers ensuring residents in the region comply with the directive.
It could raise tensions between the two East African nations and it is not clear how Tanzania will respond.
This week it banned flights from Kenya, after the government in Nairobi deemed measures taken by its neighbour to cope with the pandemic were insufficient.
