East African Legislative Assembly, Arusha, December 5th 2019: A new Bill that will see access to essential medicines and promotion of the local pharmaceutical industry is set to be introduced. The Assembly has this afternoon granted EALA Member, Hon Francine Rutazana, leave to introduce the Bill entitled the East African Community Pharmaceuticals Bill, 2019. The Bill shall among other things, aims to promote and boost medicines and pharmaceuticals produced in the EAC region, regulate good manufacturing practices and quality standards and ensure the mutual recognition of registration of medicines. At the same time, the Bill seeks to promote preference for pharmaceuticals produced in the Community during the public procurement processes and for related matters. The Bill also seeks to designate the national pharmaceutical authority in Partner States that shall be responsible for the pharmaceutical matters provided for under the Act. As the House rose today, the mover, Hon Francine Rutazana moved a motion under Article 49 (1) and 59(1) of the Treaty and Rule 26 of the Rules of Procedure. The mover avers that reliable access to affordable and quality assured medicines in East Africa remains a huge challenge since most of the medicines in the Community are still paid for directly by citizens through out of pocket models.   It is anticipated that one of the ways by which the Community can both improve availability of essential medicines and their quality, is to promote and support local production of essential medicines required by the Community. The motion notes that discrepancies in the registration procedures for essential medicines still exist and remain a great challenge as currently provided for by the national health policies and regulations in the Partner States.   Despite the challenges, it is also stated that the Community has not established favourable policies for the local produces or in their adequate promotion to enable them to effectively compete with imported drugs. Contributing to the motion, Hon Gai Deng said ensuring access to medication was a key objective for sustainable development. She remarked that despite huge advances in Universal Health Access, there was still major discrepancies with regards to regulation, and access. “The motion is timely, given the need to strengthen the implementation of the roadmap by the EAC Secretariat”, Hon Deng said.

“We are losing out on jobs and employment opportunities and industrialization can be boosted by enhancing local production”, Hon Ndangiza said.  The legislator also called for enhancing of the regulatory framework to ensure its realization.

Other Members who supported the formulation of the Bill were Hon Dr Woda Jeremiah Odok, Hon Abdikadir Aden, Hon Dr Gabriel Alaak

 East African Legislative Assembly, Arusha, December 5^th 2019: As the region puts out all its arsenal and explores modalities of containing the Ebola and Dengue viruses, the East African Legislative Assembly has stepped up to adopt the Report of the Committee on General Purpose on the oversight activity assessing levels of preparedness of Partner States in management of the epidemics.

The House in its debate has reiterated need for the Council of Ministers to develop an EAC Policy on the management of communicable diseases in the region and to strengthen collaborative engagement with key stakeholders. In effect, the Assembly wants further collaboration with stakeholders such as the World Health Organization (WHO) and the German Technical Co-operation (GiZ) to enhance oversight in the promotion of the health sector in the region.    

The assessment took place in the Republics of Rwanda and Uganda, between September 12-16^th, 2019, while the United Republic of Tanzania, requested for a new date for the exercise, according to a letter tabled in the House and confirmed by Deputy Minister for Foreign Affairs and EAC Co-operation, Hon Dr Damas Ndumbaro.  Chair of the Committee on General Purpose Committee, Hon Abdikadir Aden, presented the report to the House yesterday, affirming three other Partner States, (Republics of Burundi, Kenya and South Sudan) are also targeted in the next oversight activity. The report was tabled on October 3^rd, 2019, during the 1^st Meeting of the third Session held in Arusha.

The principal objective of conducting the oversight activity, was to assess the level of preparedness of the EAC Partner States in managing/containing the Ebola and Dengue fever epidemics and to explore possible sustainable interventions to combat these epidemics. The Committee took the initiative to get briefs on the Ebola and Dengue epidemics/pandemics and the progress made in controlling/managing the same; assessing challenges and ascertaining existence of any specific bilateral or international engagements/interventions to combat the epidemics.  The oversight activity further sought to establish the impact and effects of the said epidemics on the economies and welfare of the citizens of EAC.

Under Article 117 of the Treaty for the establishment of the East African Community, Partner States make a commitment to co-operate in, among others, health activities within the Community. Precisely, under Article 118(a) of the Treaty, Partner States undertake to joint action towards the prevention and control of communicable and non-communicable diseases and to control pandemics and epidemics of communicable and vector – borne diseases that might endanger the health and welfare of the residents of the Partner States and to co-operate in facilitating mass immunization and other public health Community campaigns.

During debate, Hon Pamela Maasaay lauded the initiatives of the Partner States, saying caution had been taken at the district levels by establishing laboratories including permeating such measures within the Communities by having surveillance modes in place.    “It is important for Communities to embrace strategies that ensure peculiar signals are picked up”, Hon Maasaay said.  Hon Kasamba Mathias lauded the efforts undertaken by the Republics of Rwanda and Uganda and said continued surveillance in the control of communicable and non-communicable diseases was vital.

“What we need now is a regional disease surveillance mechanism to enable us to be able to respond as a region”, he reiterated. Hon Oda Gasinzigwa said the exercise gave Members an opportunity to build their capacities on Ebola and called for behavior change on the part of the clinical officers. Hon Dr Anne Itto, supported the report and called for an urgent oversight activity in Republic of South Sudan, citing the conflict prone areas and the minimal presence of authorities in the border points between South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo had made health infrastructure challenging. Other Members who contributed to the debate were Hon Dr Pierre Celestin Rwigema, Hon Dr Woda Jeremiah Odok, Hon Mary Mugyenyi and Hon Francoise Umuwukiza.  Others were Hon Kennedy Mukulia Ayason, Hon Dr Francois Xavier Kalinda, Hon Jean Marie Muhirwa, Hon Paul Musamali and Hon Eng Mohammed Mnyaa 

The report further informs of various interventions undertaken by the Republic of Uganda and the Republic of Rwanda with regards to containing the disease. The House was informed of interventions made through a multi-sectoral approach and such include, development of a contingency plan for Ebola preparedness and response and a National Disaster Management Committee made up of Ministers in charge of emergency who advise and co-ordinate relief efforts in Rwanda.  In Uganda, the House heard of enhanced capacity building in surveillance and contact tracing and the effective use of community-based disease surveillance approach.  

“Over 7 million have been screened at ground points of entry; with the Entebbe Airport recording screening of 225,804”, a section of the report states.

Prior to undertaking the oversight activity, the Committee according to Hon Aden, received a brief from the EAC Secretariat’s Health Department indicating that disease outbreaks were a common occurrence in the region and posed myriad of challenges. 

“Each Partner State has had at least two notable disease outbreaks in every five-year period between 2000 and 2019”, Hon Aden said. Examples of outbreaks include Rift Valley Fever, Ebola, Marburg, Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fevers and Yellow Fever”, a section of the report said.

According to the Chairperson, it took Republic of Kenya and the United Republic of Tanzania, six months respectively to contain the 2006 Rift Valley Fever (RVF) outbreaks. The region and neighboring Democratic Republic of Congo have also experienced several outbreaks of the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD). “In January 2017, a Bird Flu outbreak was reported along the shores of Lutembe bay (Lake Victoria) in Uganda. In October 2017, a Marburg Fever outbreak was reported in Eastern Uganda, Kween district, close to the Kenyan border with one confirmed fatality”, the report added. 

In his response, the Chair of the Council of Ministers, Hon Amb Olivier Nduhungirehe, assured the House all recommendations made would be implemented and affirmed that Secretariat was developing a regional policy on communicable and non-communicable diseases. “The Council will in due course interest the East African Science and Research Commission to champion research to enable the Community to fully benefit”, the Minister remarked.

What is Ebola?

The Ebola Virus Disease (EVD) is a severe and often deadly disease caused by an Ebola virus. It falls under the category of viral hemorrhagic fevers.  A person can get the disease by direct contact with body fluids of an infected person.

Signs and Symptoms of Ebola

Mkuu wa Mkoa wa Rukwa Mh. Joachim Wangabo (wa pili toka kulia) akiwa pamoja na wakulima katika kijiji cha Kalalasi kata ya Mkali wilayani Kalambo akiwa pamoja na wakulima wa kijiji hicho wakisaidiana kusukuma plau ikiwa moja ya njia ya kuhamasisha kilimo katika maeneo ya vijijini.

Mkuu wa Wilaya ya Kalambo Mh. Julieth Binyura akisaidiana na mmoja wa wakulima wa kijiji cha Kalalasi Kata ya Mkali Wilayani Kalambo ikiwa ni moja ya kuhamasisha kilimo katika msimu huu wa kilimo wa mwaka 2019/2010 katika mkoa wa Rukwa.



Mkuu wa Mkoa wa Rukwa Mh. Joachim Wangabo akielekeza namna ya kupanda mahindi kwa kufuta vipimo vinavyoelekezwa na wataalamu wa kilimo na hatumae kufanya kilimo cha Tija.

………………………………………………

Mkuu wa Mkoa wa Rukwa Mh. Joachim Wangabo amewataka wakulima wa Mkoa huo kuhakikisha wanafuata maelekezo ya maafisa kilimo waliopo kwenye ngazi za vijiji na kata ili kuweza kulima kwa tija na hatimae kuongeza upatikanaji wa chakula katika mkoa na pia kujiongezea kipato.

Amesema kuwa ni dhamira ya mkoa kuhamasisha kilimo kinachoongeza uzalishaji kwa ekari moja, hivyo ni lazima wakulima wapande kwa kutumia utaalamu huku wakizingatia ubora wa mbegu ambazo zimehakikiwa na Taasisi ya Kudhibiti Ubora wa Mbegu nchini (TOSC) pamoja na kutumia mbolea zinazostahili kwa ekari kama ambavyo wataalamu wanashauri

“Sio mtu anachukua mfuko mmoja wa mbolea halafu anakwenda kuuweka katika ekari mbili matokeo yake uzalishaji unakuwa ni mdogo, lakini pia baada ya mahindi kuwa yameota na kuwekewa mbolea ni lazima pia kuangalia upande wa visumbufu, wadudu wale waharibifu wa mazao, lazima tuweke dawa mapema tutumie viuatilifu ambavyo vinashauriwa na wataalamu wa kilimo, baada ya hpo tuangalie mashamba yetu kwa kupalilia kwa kufanya hivi tunaweza kuzidfi hata gunia 20 kwa ekari,” Alisema.

Ameyasema hayo alipokuwa katika ziara yake maalum ya kuhamasisha kilimo chenye tija katika Halmashauri ya Wilaya ya Kalambo Mkoani humo akiwa pamoja na wataalamu wa kilimo wa mkoa na halmashauri pamoja na mkuu wa Wilaya hiyo.

Kwa upande wao mmoja wa wamiliki wa shamba lililotembelewa na Mkuu wa Mkoa Bwana Rojas Lukas amesema kuwa changamoto ubwa inayowakuta wakulima na kushindwa kuendelea kulima kilimo chenye tija ni mitaji pamoja na mdudu mharibifu aina ya kiwavi jeshi.

“Kuna mdudu Fulani anaitwa Kiwavi jeshi Yule anatusumbua sananingeomba serikali ijaribu kututafutia dawa ambayo inaweza ikamuua Yule mdudu, kingine tunaomba serikali itusaidie kama inawezekana watukopeshe ili tukuze kilimo chetu kiende mbele,” Alisema.

Akimkaribisha Mkuu wa mkoa katika shamba la mmoja wa wakulima hao mkuu wa Wilaya ya Kalambo Mh. Juliet Binyura alisema kuwa watalaamu wameendelea kutoa ushauri kwa wananchi mbalimbali na hivyo kuwaomba kuendelea kufanya hivyo ili kuwasaidia wakulima kuweza kufikia kilimo chenye tija.

“Tumekuja kuangalia utaalamu aliopewa kwa wataalamu ambao ni maafisa ugani katika kata yake na wanapanda kwa kutumia kamba na wanapima vipimo vinavyokubalika naamini ya kwamba mazao atavuna vizuri,” Alisema.

Shirika lisilo la kiserikali Agape Aids Cotrol Program la mkoani Shinyanga, limefanya maadhimisho ya siku 16 za kupinga ukatili wa kijinsia  kwa kupinga vitendo vya ubakaji, ulawiti, mimba na ndoa za utotoni, pamoja na kutoa lugha chafu za matusi kwa wafanyabiashara wanawake sokoni.

 Amesema mkoa wa Shinyanga unashika nafasi ya tano kitaifa dhidi ya matukio ya ubakaji, ikiwamo wanafunzi kupewa ujauzito pamoja na kuozeshwa ndoa za utotoni, jambo ambalo linauchafua mkoa, na hivyo kuwataka wananchi waachane na matukio hayo ili watoto wapate kusoma kwa bidii na kuweza kutimiza ndoto zao.“Nayapongeza sana mashirika haya ambayo siyo ya kiserikali likiwamo la Eguality For Growth (EFG) pamoja na Shirika la Agape, kwa kazi nzuri sana ambayo wanayoifanya mkoani hapa kwa kupambana kutokomeza matukio ya ukatili wa kijinsia dhidi ya wanawake na watoto,”amesema Jongo. 

 “Pia naomba waendelee na mapambano haya ya kutokomeza ukatili huu wa kijinsia, kwa kutoa elimu kwa wananchi pamoja na wanafunzi dhidi ya madhara haya ya kufanya ukatili, ambapo mkoa wetu unaongoza kwa matukio ya ubakaji watoto na tunashika nafasi ya tano kitaifa,”ameongeza.Naye mkurugenzi wa Shirika la Agape John Myola, amesema Shirika hilo limekuwa likijihusisha na miradi mbalimbali ya kupinga ukatili wa kijinsia dhidi ya wanawake na watoto, ikiwemo miradi ya kupinga mimba na ndoa za utotoni, pamoja na ukatili dhidi ya wanawake sokoni. 

 Pia amelipogeza Jeshi la Polisi kwa kushirikiana vyema na Shirika hilo la Agape dhidi ya mapambano ya matukio ya ukatili, ambapo wao wanapokuwa wakitoa taarifa za matukio hayo, polisi hufika mara moja kwenye eneo la tukio na kumkamata mtuhumiwa.Kwa upande wake Mkurugenzi wa Shirika la Equality For Growth kutoka Jijini Dar es salaam Jane Majigita, ametoa wito kwa wananchi pamoja na watoto, wawe wanatoa taarifa za matukio ya ukatili wa kijinsia, ili yafanyiwe kazi na wahusika kuchukuliwa hatua kali za kisheria, hali ambayo itapunguza matukio hayo.Aidha kauli mbiu ya maadhimisho ya siku 16 za kupinga ukatili wa kijinsia mwaka huu inasema "Kizazi Chenye Usawa, Simama Dhidi ya Ubakaji".

NA MWAMVUA MWINYI,KIBAHA

KATIKA kukabiliana na wimbi la baadhi ya wenyeviti wa mitaa na vitongoji kuhusishwa na migogoro ya ardhi na rushwa  wenyeviti wapya waliochaguliwa katika uchaguzi uliopita wa serikali za mitaa katika halmashauri ya Mji Kibaha, mkoani  Pwani ,wamekemewa kujihusisha na vitendo hivyo ili kurejesha imani kwa wananchi juu ya serikali yao.

Aidha wameaswa kuendelea kusimamia sheria ndogo iliyowekwa kuhusu muda wa kuruhusiwa kucheza pool na kunywa pombe kuwa ni saa kumi jioni na ambae atakiuka  sheria hiyo na mwenye baa wote wakamatwe.

Hayo aliyasema mkuu wa wilaya ya kibaha Assumpter Mshama wakati wa mafunzo ya kuwajengea uwezo wenyeviti na wajumbe wa serikali za mitaa hao ambayo yameandaliwa kwa lengo la kuwajengea uwezo katika utekelazaji wa majukumu yao ikiwemo kuweka mikakati ya kupambana na migogoro ya ardhi pamoja na rushwa.

Alielezea kipindi cha nyuma wenyeviti wa mitaa walisumbua kuwa chanzo cha kuuza ardhi mara mbilimbili na wengine kusababisha migogoro ya ardhi isiyo na tija .

"Baadhi ya wenyeviti wa mitaa walichangia kuongeza changamoto ya migogoro ya ardhi,sasa msiende kuwa vinara wa kufanya waliyokuwa wakifanya wengine"

Assumpter alieleza,pia kilichowatokea wapinzani wa vyama vingine na kuacha kugombea uchaguzi wa serikali za mitaa ingekuwa vyema wakasusia na uchaguzi mkuu ujao, kuanzia kwa madiwani na wabunge ili CCM imalize kazi .

"CCM imeshajiimarisha kuanzia ngazi ya chini,ni chama gani kina mipango mizuri kama hii,yaani unakuta chama kina viongozi kuanzia kata tuu,wanakula wakubwa wanashindwa kujiimarisha kuanzia chini,na CCM tutaendelea na mwendo uleule tutashinda kwa kishindo"alifafanua Assumpter.

Nae mwenyekiti wa mtaa wa Msangani mwajuma makuka alisema wamepokea mafunzo yote waliyopewa juu ya majukumu yao na atakwenda kuyasimamia ikiwemo suala la elimu hasa kutatua changamoto za kielimu.

Mwenyekiti wa Chama Cha Mapinduzi ,Kibaha Mjini Maulid Bundala alisema wenyeviti wa mitaa wanawajibu wa kusimamia na kutatua changamoto za wananchi kabla ya kufika ngazi ya juu na wanapaswa kusimamia utekelezaji wa ilani ya chama hicho bila kulegalega.

Mafunzo hayo yamewashirikisha wenyeviti wa serikali za mitaa na wajumbe 438 ambapo kati yao wenyeviti ni 73  pamoja na wajumbe wake 365 kutoka katika halmashauri ya mji Kibaha na kushirikishwa viongozi mbali mbali wa serikali .

The EAC Secretary General, Amb. Libérat Mfumukeko, and the Chargé d’Affaires of the Federal Republic of Germany, Jörg Herrera, jointly sign the Agreement during the press event
Amb. Libérat Mfumukeko and Chargé d’Affaires of the Federal Republic of Germany, Jörg Herrera shake hands after the signing of Financial Agreement.

………………

The Government of the Federal Republic of Germany announced additional funds of US$128 million (EUR 115.8 million) today which will be supporting health and education programmes in the East African Community.

The majority of the funds (US$105 million [EUR 95 million]) will be going towards the EAC’s immunization programme with Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance. The EAC Secretary General, Amb. Libérat Mfumukeko, and the Chargé d’Affaires of the Federal Republic of Germany, Jörg Herrera, jointly signed the Agreement in Arusha today.

With the additional grant, the programme will be financing the procurement of at least four different types of vaccines (Pentavalent, Rotavirus, Pneumococcal and Measles) for children in all six Partner States of the East African Community. The programme is financed through the German Development Bank, KfW, and implemented in collaboration with Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance.

The cooperation aims at reducing child mortality in the region and mainly targets newborns. To date, German Development Cooperation with the EAC has financed nearly 80 million doses of life-saving vaccines for the region since the support started in 2013 and the average immunization coverage in the region was substantially increased, making the EAC’s immunization programmes the strongest in Sub-Sahara Africa.

Other funds including US15.5 million will be going towards the “EAC Regional Centre of Excellence for Health Supply Chain Management,” located at the University of Rwanda in Kigali, US$2.2 million to the support of Ebola preparedness within the ongoing EAC-German project “Regional Network of Reference Laboratories for Communicable Diseases” and US$5.3 million to the “Academic Centre for Digital Innovation in East Africa” at the Nelson Mandela African Institution of Science and Technology located in Arusha.

Speaking at the event, Amb. Mfumukeko thanked Germany for its continued support to the EAC and the integration process in general. Amb. Mfumukeko said the immunization programme in particular would go a long way in saving the lives of millions of children in the six EAC Partner States.

“The implementation of 2018 (Phase VI) which had a commitment of EUR 30 million (US$34.1) million has been fully concluded. The amount was fully disbursed to GAVI in December 2018 and spent on Pentavalent, Rotavirus and Pneumococcal vaccines in all EAC Partner States. GAVI has provided full documentation on the use of the fund including the number of doses per vaccine and country,” said the Secretary General.

“The new commitment of US$105 million for Phase VII (EUR 95 million) will be used for the procurement of four vaccines (Pentavalent, Rotavirus, Pneumococcal, Measles) with possible extension to Yellow Fever and HPV vaccines in all EAC Partner States. Vaccine procurements may take place in 2019 and 2020,” added the SG.

In his remarks, the German Chargé d’Affaires, Jörg Herrera, underscored Germany’s commitment to extend the ongoing health and education programmes with the EAC Secretariat saying the programmes would especially benefit the young generation of East African citizens.”

“Investing in the health sector is not only an investment for sustainable social development but also for a country’s and the region’s economic development. Vaccinations are a highly effective and cost efficient means to fight child mortality. The German Government highly commends the EAC’s efforts to immunize every child,” said Herrera.

EAC and Germany can look back on over 20 years of successful development cooperation which focusses on Health as well as Regional Economic and Social Integration. Germany’s development cooperation, on behalf of the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), has to date contributed to the regional integration in East Africa through a variety of programmes and projects. Including the commitments announced today, the German contributions to EAC-German Development Cooperation programmes will have added up to over USD 480 million (EUR 436.8 million).

The Signing of the Government Agreement was witnessed by the Deputy Executive Secretary of the Inter-University Council for East Africa, Prof. Mike Kuria, the Director of Infrastructure at the EAC Secretariat, Dr. Kamugisha Kazaura, Ms Norzin Grigoleit-Dagyab, the Head of Regional Cooperation from the German Embassy and Pascal Kanyinyi, KfW’s Senior Project Coordinator Health.

Hon Paul Musamali gestures as he contributes to the debate on the floor of the House. EALA adopted the report of the oversight activity on level of preparedness of Partner States in management of the epidemics





Hon Abdikadir Aden, Chairperson of the General Purpose Committee reads the report of the Committee before an attentive House (You will need to find his pic) ………………….

East African Legislative Assembly, Arusha,

As the region puts out all its arsenal and explores modalities of containing the Ebola and Dengue viruses, the East African Legislative Assembly has stepped up to adopt the Report of the Committee on General Purpose on the oversight activity assessing levels of preparedness of Partner States in management of the epidemics.

The House in its debate has reiterated need for the Council of Ministers to develop an EAC Policy on the management of communicable diseases in the region and to strengthen collaborative engagement with key stakeholders. In effect, the Assembly wants further collaboration with stakeholders such as the World Health Organization (WHO) and the German Technical Co-operation (GiZ) to enhance oversight in the promotion of the health sector in the region.

The assessment took place in the Republics of Rwanda and Uganda, between September 12-16th, 2019, while the United Republic of Tanzania, requested for a new date for the exercise, according to a letter tabled in the House and confirmed by Deputy Minister for Foreign Affairs and EAC Co-operation, Hon Dr Damas Ndumbaro. Chair of the Committee on General Purpose Committee, Hon Abdikadir Aden, presented the report to the House yesterday, affirming three other Partner States, (Republics of Burundi, Kenya and South Sudan) are also targeted in the next oversight activity. The report was tabled on October 3rd, 2019, during the 1st Meeting of the third Session held in Arusha.

The principal objective of conducting the oversight activity, was to assess the level of preparedness of the EAC Partner States in managing/containing the Ebola and Dengue fever epidemics and to explore possible sustainable interventions to combat these epidemics. The Committee took the initiative to get briefs on the Ebola and Dengue epidemics/pandemics and the progress made in controlling/managing the same; assessing challenges and ascertaining existence of any specific bilateral or international engagements/interventions to combat the epidemics. The oversight activity further sought to establish the impact and effects of the said epidemics on the economies and welfare of the citizens of EAC.

Under Article 117 of the Treaty for the establishment of the East African Community, Partner States make a commitment to co-operate in, among others, health activities within the Community. Precisely, under Article 118(a) of the Treaty, Partner States undertake to joint action towards the prevention and control of communicable and non-communicable diseases and to control pandemics and epidemics of communicable and vector – borne diseases that might endanger the health and welfare of the residents of the Partner States and to co-operate in facilitating mass immunization and other public health Community campaigns.

During debate, Hon Pamela Maasaay lauded the initiatives of the Partner States, saying caution had been taken at the district levels by establishing laboratories including permeating such measures within the Communities by having surveillance modes in place. “It is important for Communities to embrace strategies that ensure peculiar signals are picked up”, Hon Maasaay said. Hon Kasamba Mathias lauded the efforts undertaken by the Republics of Rwanda and Uganda and said continued surveillance in the control of communicable and non-communicable diseases was vital.

“What we need now is a regional disease surveillance mechanism to enable us to be able to respond as a region”, he reiterated. Hon Oda Gasinzigwa said the exercise gave Members an opportunity to build their capacities on Ebola and called for behavior change on the part of the clinical officers. Hon Dr Anne Itto, supported the report and called for an urgent oversight activity in Republic of South Sudan, citing the conflict prone areas and the minimal presence of authorities in the border points between South Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo had made health infrastructure challenging. Other Members who contributed to the debate were Hon Dr Pierre Celestin Rwigema, Hon Dr Woda Jeremiah Odok, Hon Mary Mugyenyi and Hon Francoise Umuwukiza. Others were Hon Kennedy Mukulia Ayason, Hon Dr Francois Xavier Kalinda, Hon Jean Marie Muhirwa, Hon Paul Musamali and Hon Eng Mohammed Mnyaa

The report further informs of various interventions undertaken by the Republic of Uganda and the Republic of Rwanda with regards to containing the disease. The House was informed of interventions made through a multi-sectoral approach and such include, development of a contingency plan for Ebola preparedness and response and a National Disaster Management Committee made up of Ministers in charge of emergency who advise and co-ordinate relief efforts in Rwanda. In Uganda, the House heard of enhanced capacity building in surveillance and contact tracing and the effective use of community-based disease surveillance approach.

“Over 7 million have been screened at ground points of entry; with the Entebbe Airport recording screening of 225,804”, a section of the report states.

Prior to undertaking the oversight activity, the Committee according to Hon Aden, received a brief from the EAC Secretariat’s Health Department indicating that disease outbreaks were a common occurrence in the region and posed myriad of challenges.

“Each Partner State has had at least two notable disease outbreaks in every five-year period between 2000 and 2019”, Hon Aden said. Examples of outbreaks include Rift Valley Fever, Ebola, Marburg, Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fevers and Yellow Fever”, a section of the report said.

According to the Chairperson, it took Republic of Kenya and the United Republic of Tanzania, six months respectively to contain the 2006 Rift Valley Fever (RVF) outbreaks. The region and neighboring Democratic Republic of Congo have also experienced several outbreaks of the Ebola Virus Disease (EVD). “In January 2017, a Bird Flu outbreak was reported along the shores of Lutembe bay (Lake Victoria) in Uganda. In October 2017, a Marburg Fever outbreak was reported in Eastern Uganda, Kween district, close to the Kenyan border with one confirmed fatality”, the report added.

In his response, the Chair of the Council of Ministers, Hon Amb Olivier Nduhungirehe, assured the House all recommendations made would be implemented and affirmed that Secretariat was developing a regional policy on communicable and non-communicable diseases. “The Council will in due course interest the East African Science and Research Commission to champion research to enable the Community to fully benefit”, the Minister remarked.

Afisa Urasimishaji na uendelezaji biashara kutoka MKURABITA Zablon Makoye akitoa ufafanuzi juu ya umuhimu wa kuweka kumbukumbu katika biashara na jinsi ya kutambulika katika taasisi za kifedha kwa wafanyabiashara na wajasiliamali wa Mkoa wa Tabora.

Tabora.

Imeelezwa kuwa sababu kubwa ya kufungwa kwa biashara nyingi hapa Nchini kunatokana na wafanyabiashara kushindwa kutofautisha matumizi ya faida na mapato ya mali binafsi na mali za biashara .

Hayo yamesemwa na Meneja wa Urasimishaji biashara kutoka Mpango wa kurasimisha rasilimali na biashara za wanyonge Tanzania MKURABITA Harvey Kombe wakati akitoa mafunzo kwa wajasiliamali na wafanaya Biashara zaidi ya mia Mbili wa Mkoa Tabora yaliyolenga kutoa elimu juu umuhimu wa kurasimisha biashara na kuzifanya kuwa katika mfumo rasmi unaotambulika.

Kombe amesema kuwa biashara nyingi zinadumu kwa kipindi cha miaka michache na kufa kutokana na wafanyabiashara kuchanganya matumizi binafsi na matumizi kutoka katika mitaji ya biashara na hivyo kusababisha kushindwa kujiendesha.

“Wafanyabiashara wengi wa Tanzania hawatofautishi mali za biashara na mali binafsi hawajilipi mishahara na matokeo yake ni kwamba matumizi yao bianafsi wanachukua kwenye mtaji wa biashara na ndio inasababisha zikifikisha miaka miwili mitatu zinakufa kwa sababu mtaji wa biashara unatumika kinyume na kanuni za kuendesha biashara”amesema Kombe

Ameongeza kuwa ili mfanyabiashara aweze kujua faida halisi ya biashara anayoiendesha anapaswa kuweka kumbukumbu ambayo itaonesha kiasi gani kinachopatikana katika biashara yake..

“Biashara iliyo rasmi Yenyewe iwe inatunza kumbukumbu za mahesabu mfanya biashara aweze kujua faida halisi ya biashara anayooendesha lazima awe anatunza kumbukumbu bila kuwa na kumbukumbu za biashara sio rahisi kujua anapata faida kiasi gani na anapata hasara kiasi gani.”Kombe

Akitoa elimu kuhusu namba ya utambulisho wa mlipa kodi TIN afisa wa TRA mkoa wa Tabora Godfrey Comoro amesema kuwa kuna aina mbili za TIN ambazo mwananchi anaweza kuwa nayo lakini mfanyabiashara lazima awe na TIN inayomtambulisha kwa nafasi yake.

“Tin ya kwanza ni kwa ajili ya shughuli zisizo za kibiashara kwa mfano mtu anataka leseni ya udereva kwa ajili ya kutumia vyombo vya moto au anataka kununua gari nje ya nchi au amenunua hapa nchini anataka kusafirisha na TIN ya pili ni kwa ajili ya kupata leseni ya biashara ambapo mfanyabiashara ataweza kufanya biashara mbalimbali ambazo zinatambulika rasmi.

Zaidi ya wafanyabiashara na wajasiliamali elfu moja wa Manispaa ya Tabora wameshiriki katika mafunzo hayo ambapo taasisi mbalimbali za kifedha zimetoa elimu ya utoaji wa mikopo pamoja na njia sahihi za kurejesha kwa wakati.
