killing of albinos Tanzania

It is so sad to say this but in reality Tanzania is among the top countries who have higher number of people living with albinism.each day a new number of albinos is increasing but there is one major problem facing them.people living with albinism face a lot of problems including isolation, brutality and killings.

Factors contributing
witchcraft is a major factor
  • witchdoctors have lured a lot of people by making them believe that for one to become a successful in life they must bring to them any organ of an albino to them so that they can make for them traditional charms.
  • we call  it 'irizi' in swahili, its is  believed to to brick good luck, protection and wealth but all of them are forgetting that they are killing innocent people who also have the right to live like other people. but we should appreciate for the effort the government is trying to do by ensuring that the people doing this things are taken to courts and sentenced to jail.
What to do
  • The government should create awareness to the people by using the media and press that killing and torturing of albino is against human right and that they are just normal people like other people 
  • the government should enforce and implement laws that are going to protect the right of the albino and also they should provide tight security.

Sudan's Bashir coming for Uhuru fete

 
The Uhuru administration may have to handle its first diplomatic row if Sudanese President Omar al Bashir who is wanted by the ICC attends tomorrow's ceremony.
According to a Khartoum newspaper Akbar al-Youm which is considered to be pro government, Bashir is expected to arrive today for Tuesday's ceremony at Kasarani and will leave tomorrow for Chad. He is among several heads of state and government who have been invited for the ceremony.
Bashir’s attendance will however put the government—that of outgoing President Kibaki and the incoming Uhuru administration— in a quandary as there is an outstanding warrant of arrest against Bashir.
Bashir is wanted by the International Criminal Court over alleged war crimes and genocide in Darfur region. The ICC issued an international warrant for his arrest in 2008 which compels all countries who are signatory to the Rome Statute to effect.
However, since then, Bashir has travelled to several friendly African countries including Kenya when he was a surprise guest during the August 2010 ceremony for the promulgation of the new constitution which was held at Uhuru Park. Not even Prime Minister Raila Odinga was aware that Bashir had been invited for the ceremony or even that he was going to honor the invitation.
Subsequent to his visit, the International Commission for Jurists went to court to compel the government to live up to its obligations under the Rome Statute. High Court Judge Nicholas Ombija issued an arrest warrant for Bashir if he stepped into the country.
Attempts by the Attorney General Githu Muigai to appeal against the order and have the warrant lifted were unsuccessful. This means that Bashir is liable for arrest if he comes into the country.
His presence may also complicate matters for Uhuru and his deputy William Ruto who are both facing trial at the ICC. Both have severally declared that they will fully cooperate with ICC even while at State House.
Yesterday, the International Centre for Policy and Conflict executive director Ndung'u Wainaina said the government is obligated to obey the court orders.
“The High Court of Kenya issued a warrant of arrest against Al-Bashir. The CJ (Willy) Mutunga told IG of Police David Kimaiyo, and ‘Court orders are law'. Article 132(5) of Constitution states the President shall ensure international obligations are fulfilled,” he said.
Even as the final preparations of the fete were going on, there were indications that some of the Cord luminaries—outgoing PM Raila, Vice President Kalonzo Musyoka and Moses Wetangula will not attend. They left for a visit to South Africa and are due back tomorrow.
In a symbolic shift of power, all government offices and businesses premises which display the president's portrait will remove Kibaki's and put up Uhuru's portrait. This, according to the organizers of the ceremony, is supposed to be done simultaneously as Uhuru is sworn in as the next president. Kibaki's presidential standard will also be lowered and Uhuru's light blue standard will be raised in its place.
The swearing in ceremony which is estimated to cost taxpayers Sh300 million is expected to start at 10 am and end at 2 pm, according to a programme released by the inauguration committee headed by head of public service Francis Kimemia. Invited guests will then go to the State House where a garden party is expected to be held.
Foreign dignitaries including several African presidents were expected to start arriving last evening. They are expected to be seated at the Kasarani sports centre at 10.45 am.
The Chief of Defence Forces Julius Karangi will arrive at 11am and will be followed five ministers later by Chief Justice Willy Mutanga, the other five Supreme Court judges and the Registrar of Judiciary Gladys Shollei.
Thirty minutes later, a guard of honour mounted by KDF will marche to the stadium led by Lt Col Jeff Nyaga who headed the onslaught against Al Shabaab in Somalia.
Five minutes later, deputy president-elect William Ruto accompanied by his wife Rachel will arrive. He is expected to be followed into the centre by Uhuru and his wife.
At 11.45am, President Kibaki will arrive and mount his ceremonial Land Rover to take the last salute from the military. After the national anthem, Kibaki is expected to inspect his last guard of honor before the ceremony proper starts.
After taking his oath of office presented by CJ Mutunga, Uhuru will be decorated with the Chief of the Golden Heart medal by Kibaki, will be presented with the ceremonial sword and a copy of the constitution. A 21-gun salute to honor the incoming president will be followed by the National Anthem.
Ruto will be sworn into office by Shollei and will take over the programme which will see President Museveni invite Kibaki to deliver his valedictory (closing) speech. After the ceremony at Kasarani, Kibaki will attend the luncheon at State which will be hosted by his successor and leave.

Meet The World's Poorest President








Related Stories



It's a common grumble that politicians' lifestyles are far removed from those of their electorate. Not so in Uruguay. Meet the president - who lives on a ramshackle farm and gives away most of his pay.

Laundry is strung outside the house. The water comes from a well in a yard, overgrown with weeds. Only two police officers and Manuela, a three-legged dog, keep watch outside.

This is the residence of the president of Uruguay, Jose Mujica, whose lifestyle clearly differs sharply from that of most other world leaders.

President Mujica has shunned the luxurious house that the Uruguayan state provides for its leaders and opted to stay at his wife's farmhouse, off a dirt road outside the capital, Montevideo.

The president and his wife work the land themselves, growing flowers.

This austere lifestyle - and the fact that Mujica donates about 90% of his monthly salary, equivalent to $12,000 (£7,500), to charity - has led him to be labelled the poorest president in the world."I've lived like this most of my life," he says, sitting on an old chair in his garden, using a cushion favoured by Manuela the dog.

"I can live well with what I have."

His charitable donations - which benefit poor people and small entrepreneurs - mean his salary is roughly in line with the average Uruguayan income of $775 (£485) a month. In 2010, his annual personal wealth declaration - mandatory for officials in Uruguay - was $1,800 (£1,100), the value of his 1987 Volkswagen Beetle.

This year, he added half of his wife's assets - land, tractors and a house - reaching $215,000 (£135,000).

That's still only about two-thirds of Vice-President Danilo Astori's declared wealth, and a third of the figure declared by Mujica's predecessor as president, Tabare Vasquez.

Elected in 2009, Mujica spent the 1960s and 1970s as part of the Uruguayan guerrilla Tupamaros, a leftist armed group inspired by the Cuban revolution.

He was shot six times and spent 14 years in jail. Most of his detention was spent in harsh conditions and isolation, until he was freed in 1985 when Uruguay returned to democracy.

Those years in jail, Mujica says, helped shape his outlook on life."I'm called 'the poorest president', but I don't feel poor. Poor people are those who only work to try to keep an expensive lifestyle, and always want more and more," he says.

"This is a matter of freedom. If you don't have many possessions then you don't need to work all your life like a slave to sustain them, and therefore you have more time for yourself," he says.

"I may appear to be an eccentric old man... But this is a free choice."

The Uruguayan leader made a similar point when he addressed the Rio+20 summit in June this year: "We've been talking all afternoon about sustainable development. To get the masses out of poverty.

"But what are we thinking? Do we want the model of development and consumption of the rich countries? I ask you now: what would happen to this planet if Indians would have the same proportion of cars per household than Germans? How much oxygen would we have left?

"Does this planet have enough resources so seven or eight billion can have the same level of consumption and waste that today is seen in rich societies? It is this level of hyper-consumption that is harming our planet."

Mujica accuses most world leaders of having a "blind obsession to achieve growth with consumption, as if the contrary would mean the end of the world". But however large the gulf between the vegetarian Mujica and these other leaders, he is no more immune than they are to the ups and downs of political life.

"Many sympathise with President Mujica because of how he lives. But this does not stop him for being criticised for how the government is doing," says Ignacio Zuasnabar, a Uruguayan pollster.

The Uruguayan opposition says the country's recent economic prosperity has not resulted in better public services in health and education, and for the first time since Mujica's election in 2009 his popularity has fallen below 50%.

This year he has also been under fire because of two controversial moves. Uruguay's Congress recently passed a bill which legalised abortions for pregnancies up to 12 weeks. Unlike his predecessor, Mujica did not veto it.





All the  president's wealth - a 1987 VW Beetle
He is also supporting a debate on the legalisation of the consumption of cannabis, in a bill that would also give the state the monopoly over its trade.

"Consumption of cannabis is not the most worrying thing, drug-dealing is the real problem," he says.

However, he doesn't have to worry too much about his popularity rating - Uruguayan law means he is not allowed to seek re-election in 2014. Also, at 77, he is likely to retire from politics altogether before long.

When he does, he will be eligible for a state pension - and unlike some other former presidents, he may not find the drop in income too hard to get used to.
