China na Korea kuisaidia Tanzania katika Sekta ya Afya na Elimu.


Waziri wa Elimu, Sayansi na Teknolojia Profesa Joyce Ndalichoko ameishukuru Serikali ya Watu wa China kwa kukubali ombi  lililotolewa na Rais wa Jamhuri ya Muungano wa Tanzania Dk John Magufuli la kufadhili  wataalam wa sekta ya Afya.

Waziri Ndalichako ametoa kauli hiyo hii leo alipotembelewa na Balozi wa China nchini Tanzania Wang Ke aliyefika katika Ofisi ndogo za Wizara Jijini Dar es Salaam kwa ajili ya kufanya mazungumzo kuhusu utaratibu wa kupata wanafunzi watakaofaidika na ufadhili huo.

Balozi Wang Ke amesema baada ya Rais wa China kupata maombi hayo ametoa ufadhili wa Serikali yake kwa wanafunzi 20 wa Kitanzania watakaopata ufadhili wa masomo katika Sekta ya Afya kutoka Serikali ya China kwa mwaka wa masomo wa 2018/2019 katika ngazi za Uzamili na Uzamivu.

Aidha, Balozi Wang Ke amesema mbali na ufadhili huo pia Serikali ya China itaendesha Mpango wa Mafunzo kwa wataalamu wengine 20 mpaka 30 wa Sekta ya Afya kwa muda wa mwezi mmoja nchini China, hivyo amemuomba Waziri  wa Elimu kusaidia katika kuratibu upatikanaji wa Wanafunzi na aina ya mafunzo ambayo yatasaidia katika kutatua changamoto katika Sekta ya Afya.

Katika hatua nyingine Waziri  Ndalichako amekutana na kufanya mazungumzo na Balozi wa Jamhuri ya Korea Song Geum – Young  kwa lengo la kujadili ujio wa wabunge kutoka Bunge la Korea kwa ajili ya kutoa msaada katika Hospitali ya Tiba na Taaluma ya Mlongazila.

Waziri Ndalichako amemwambia balozi huyo kuwa Serikali bado inaendelea kutafuta fedha kwa ajili ya kujenga mbiundombinu ya kuwezesha wanafunzi na wauguzi kuishi karibu na hospitali ya Taalum na Tiba ya Mlongazila. 

Waziri amesema kwa sasa serikali ipo katika ujenzi wa awamu ya kwanza ya Miundombinu itakayowezesha wanafunzi wapatao 1500 kuishi karibu na hospitali hiyo. 

Waziri Ndalichako amesema Hospitali hiyo imejengwa kwa lengo la kuongeza udahili wa wanafunzi mpaka kufikia wanafunzi zaidi ya 10,000 hivyo bado Miundombinu itakayowezesha kuchukua idadi hiyo ya wanafunzi pamoja na watumishi wa hospitali hiyo inahitajika.

Naye Balozi wa Jamhuri ya Korea amesema serikali yake bado itaendelea kusaidia katika uendeshaji wa hospitali hiyo pamoja na miradi mingine katika Sekta ya Elimu.

Waziri wa Elimu, Sayansi na Teknolojia Profesa Joyce Ndalichako akizungumza na Balozi wa Jamhuri ya Korea  Song Geum – Young ofisini kwake ambapo kwa pamoja walijadiliana namna bora ya kuisaidia uboreshaji wa Miundombinu ya Hospitali ya Tiba na Taaluma ya Mloganzila.

Waziri wa Elimu, Sayansi na Teknolojia Profesa  Joyce Ndalichako leo ameongoza Wananchi mbalimbali kuaga mwili wa aliyekuwa Mwanafunzi wa Chuo cha Usafirishaji (NIT) marehemu Akwilina Akwiline jijini Dar es salaam.
Akizungumza wakati wa kumuaga Marehemu Akwilina Waziri Ndalichako amesema msiba huo umemgusa kila Mtanzania kwa kuwa Marehemu amekutwa na umauti akiwa anatekeleza majukumu yake ya kielimu.

Aidha, Waziri Ndalichako amezitaka Mamlaka zinazohusika kuharakisha kufanya uchungizi ili wale wote watakaobainika kuhusuika na tukio hilo waweze kuchukuliwa hatua  kwa mujibu wa  sheria za nchi.

Waziri Prof. Ndalichako aziagiza Taasisi za Elimu kufuata Taratibu, Kanuni na Sheria za nchi


Waziri wa Elimu, Sayansi na Teknolojia Profesa Joyce Ndalichako amezitaka Taasisi zinazotoa Elimu ya Juu hapa nchini kufuata taratibu, Sheria na kanuni za nchi katika kuendesha Taasisi hizo.

Waziri Ndalichako ametoa kauli hiyo hii leo jijini Dar es Salaam alipofanya ziara ya kushtukiza katika Chuo Kikuu cha Kampla kilichopo Gongo la Mboto  ambapo amebaini kuwepo kwa idadi kubwa ya watumishi ambao hawana vibali vya Makazi  na Ajira.
Waziri Ndalichako amesema Chuo hicho kumekuwa na udanganyifu wa taarifa za kiutumishi ambapo watu walioajiriwa kama madereva na wahudumu wamekuwa wakiingizwa katika orodha ya watumishi  ambao ni Walimu huku wakijua watumishi hao hawana sifa za kuwa Walimu.

Waziri Ndalichako amesema baadhi ya walimu katika chuo hicho kutoka nje ya nchi wanakuja kama wanafunzi lakini wakifika Chuoni hapo wanahalalishwa na kuwa walimu ambao wanafundisha wanachuo bila kuwa sifa stahiki.

Profesa Ndalichako pia amekitaka chuo hicho kuhakikisha kinafuatilia kwa karibu nidhamu ya wanafunzi wanaosoma Chuo hapo kwa kuhakikisha wanazingatia na kufuata taratibu, kanuni na sheria za nchi.

“Nidhamu ni jambo la msingi sana, sasa hakikisheni wanafunzi wanaomaliza katika chuo hiki wanakuwa na nidhamu ikiwa ni pamoja na kuzingatia kanuni na taratibu za ndani  na nje ya nchi na siyo vinginevyo, maana kuna baadhi ya wanafunzi ambao nyaraka zinaonyesha wamemaliza kwenye Chuo hiki na wako nje ya nchi lakini hawana maadili, liangalieni hili kwa umakini,”alisema Profesa Ndalichako.

Kwa upande wake  Kamishna Jenerali wa Uhamiaji Dk. Anna Makakala  amezitaka Taasisi zote za Elimu nchini kuhakikisha zinatoa ushirikiano kwa ofisi hiyo ili kuepuka kukiuka taratibu na miongozo iliyowekwa na nchi.

TAARIFA KWA UMMA



TAARIFA KWA UMMA
Nimepokea kwa masikitiko makubwa sana taarifa ya kifo cha Akwilina  Bafhata Akwiline aliyekuwa mwanafunzi wa mwaka wa kwanza katika Chuo cha Usafirishaji (NIT).
Kifo hicho kimetokea wakati askari wakiwa wanadhibiti maandamano yaliyokuwa yakifanyika tarehe 16/02/2018 kwenye eneo la Mkwajuni Wilaya ya kinondoni, jijijini Dar es salaam.

Napenda kutumia fursa hii kutoa pole sana kwa Familia ya Ndugu,  jamaa na marafiki wote wa Akwilini.  Pia napenda kutoa pole kwa Uongozi na Jumuia ya Chuo cha Usafirishaji, wanafunzi wote nchini na wananchi wote kwa ujumla.

Ndugu Akwilini ni binti aliyekuwa anatambua na kuthamini umuhimu wa Elimu, na alijitoa kuhakikisha kuwa anasoma kwa bidii kwa manufaa yake binafsi, familia yake na kwa manufaa mapana ya taifa taifa.  Kifo chake kimetokea wakati akiwa kwenye kutekeleza wajibu wake kama mwanafunzi wa kupeleka barua mahali alipokuwa anatarajia kufanya mazoezi kwa vitendo yatakayoanza tarehe 27/02/2018. Kifo hicho cha kusikitisha kimezima ndoto yake Serikali ikekipokea kwa masikitiko makubwa sana. 

Mhe Rais wa Jamhuri ya Muungano wa Tanzania Dkt John Joseph Pombe Magufuli amesikitishwa  na kuhuzunishwa sana na kifo cha mwanafunzi Akwilini na anaungana na familia, ndugu jamaa na watanzania wote kuwapa pole za dhati kutokana na msiba huo. 
Serikali inatumia fedha nyingi kuwasomesha wanafunzi kuanzia Elimu msingi, sekondari na hutoa mikopo kwa wanafunzi wa Elimu ya juu kwa sababu tunatambua mchango wa Elimu katika maendeleo ya nchi yetu. Marehemu Akwilini alikuwa ni miongoni mwa wanufaika wa Mikopo ya wanafunzi wa elimu ya juu. 

Mimi  Waziri mwenye dhamana ya  sekta ya Elimu nimesikitika sana kuona binti huyo amepoteza maisha yake akiwa katika kutekeleza shughuli za kielimu.

Wizara yangu itagharamia shughuli zote za mazishi ya Marehemu Akwilina hadi hapo atakapopumzishwa katika makao yake ya milele. 
Namuagiza Katibu Mkuu Wizara ya Elimu Sayansi na Teknolojia Dk. Leonard Akwilapo kusimamia shughuli zote za msiba huo hadi  Akwilina atakapozikwa katika nyumba yake ya milele. 

Nitumie fursa hii kuviagiza vyombo vya ulinzi na usalama kuwafikisha mara moja wahusika waliosababisha kutokea kwa tukio hilo kwenye vyombo vya sheria ili  wachukuliwe hatua kwa mujibu wa sheria za nchi yetu.

Nawasihi sana watanzania wenzangu tujiepushe kukiuka tarataibu na miongozo inayokuwa inatolewa ikiwemo  maandamano na vitendo vyote ambavyo vinaweza kusababisha maafa kwa watu wasio na hatia.

Mungu aiweke roho ya Marehemu Akwilini mahala pema peponi Ameni

Imetolewa na:

Prof Joyce Lazaro Ndalichako
Waziri wa Elimu Sayansi na Teknolojia.

Dk. Akwilapo amesema utii, ushirikiano,bidii na upendo mahali pa kazi miongoni mwa watumishi ndiyo silaha pekee ya kufikia malengo ambayo Wizara imejiwekea katika kuinua Sekta ya Elimu hapa nchini.

TBA yatakiwa kulipa madeni ya wananchi katika ujenzi shule ya wavulana Ihungo


Waziri wa Elimu, Sayansi na Teknolojia Profesa Joyce Ndalichako amewataka wakala wa majengo nchini TBA kulipa madeni wanayodaiwa na Wananchi mbalimbali kufuatia ujenzi unaoendelea wa Shule ya Sekondari wavulana Ihungo iliyopo Wilayani bukoba mkoani kagera.

Waziri Ndalichako amesema kuwa tayari wizara imekwisha ilipa TBA  zaidi ya bilioni Tisa na garama ya ujenzi kwa mradi wote ni shilingi  bilioni 10 nukta 48.

" Mnyonge mnyongeni haki yake mpeni,  nipende kuwapongeza Wakala wa Majengo TBA kwa kazi nzuri ambayo wameifanya.

"Lakini nasikikitika sana kupokea malalamiko kutoka ofisi ya Mkuu wa mkoa inayoeleza kuwa bado kuna Wananchi wanaidai TBA kutokana na kutoa vifaa mbalimbali vya ujenzi kama vile mbao, matofali, na vibarua ambao wameshiriki katika ujenzi huo wa shule ya wavulana Ihungo na kuwa mpaka sasa hawajalipwa, hii haipendezi ni vyema TBA kuhakikisha inalipa madeni hayo,"alisema Waziri Ndalichako.

Waziri Ndalichako amesema haoni sababu kwa nini wananchi hawajalipwa wakati tayari Serikali imekwisha ilipa TBA, ni vyema wakalipwa ili kusaidia kuepusha migogiro isiyo ya lazima baina ya Serikali na wananchi.

Kwa upande wake Meneja wa TBA mkoa wa  Kagera Salum Chanzi amekiri kuwepo kwa sababu mbalimbali zilipelekea mradi kutokamilika kwa wakati na hivyo kuomba wapewe muda zaidi mpaka mwezi machi mwaka huu ili waweze kukamilisha.

"Mheshimiwa Waziri mradi huu haijakamilika kwa wakati uliokuwa umepangwa kutokana na changamoto ya kuagiza vifaa kutoka nje ya mji wa bukoba, na hii inatokana na bei wakati mwingine kuwa kubwa hapa bukoka  lakini nje ya hapa tunavipata kwa bro nafuu," alisema Chanzi.

Chanzi amemhakikishia Waziri Ndalichako kuwa tayari madeni yote wanayodaiwa na wananchi katika ujenzi huo wa Ihungo Sekondari yamewasilishwa kwenye Taasisi yake yanafanyiwa kazi na wahusika wote  watalipwa.

Katibu Mkuu Akwilapo asisitiza matumizi ya force akaunti kwa FDCs


Katibu Mkuu wa Wizara ya Elimu Sayansi na Teknolojia Dk. Leonard Akwilapo leo amefungua mafunzo yanayoelekeza matumizi ya Force Akaunti kwa Wakuu wa Vyuo vya  Maendeleo ya Jamii- FDCs mkoani Morogoro na kusisitiza kuwa utaratibu huo umekuwa na thamani ya matumizi ya fedha, (value for money).
Akizungumza na Wakuu wa Vyuo, Wakufunzi, Maafisa Ugavi na Wahasibu kutoka Vyuo hivyo Katibu Mkuu Akwilapo amesema lengo ni kuwajengea uelewa wa namna ya kusimamia ukarabati ili kuhakikisha Vyuo na Wizara kwa pamoja vinapata thamani ya matumizi ya fedha.

Dk. Akwilapo ameeleza kuwa Force Akaunti  ni utaratibu wa manunuzi ya huduma unaotambulika Serikalini na umekuwa ukitumia sehemu kubwa ya bajeti yake katika ununuzi wa vifaa mbalimbali inayotumika katika ujenzi.

Dk. Akwilapo amesema  lengo la kutumia utaratibu huo ni kupunguza gharama za ujenzi na ukarabati pamoja na kufanya utekelezaji wa mradi kukamilika kwa wakati, kukabiliana na  dharura zinazohitaji kuchukuliwa hatua za haraka pamoja na kuiwezesha taasisi husika kufanya kazi ya ujenzi na ukarabati kwenye taasisi yake pale ambapo ujenzi ni shughuli za kila siku katika Taasisi hiyo.

Ameongeza kuwa Wizara ilitumia wataalam wake katika ujenzi na ukarabati ambapo fedha iliyotumika kwa ajili ya kazi zilionekana kuwa kidogo.

 "Kwa majaribio force Akaunti ilitumika katika halmashauri 129 kujenga madarasa, mabweni, mabwalo, maabaara, Ofisi za walimu, nyumba za walimu  na umeonesha mafanikio makubwa  mahali ambapo kwa kutumia mkandarasi wastani wa shilingi bilioni 2 hadi 3 zingetumika ila kwa utaratibu wa Force Account Wizara imeweza kutumia shilingi milioni 800 hadi bilioni 1 tu".alisema Dk.Akwilapo.

Kwa upande wake mratibu wa mradi wa ESPJ Dk. Jonathan Mbwambo amewataka Washiriki wa mafunzo hayo kuzingatia mafunzo na pia kutumia fedha watakazopewa za ujenzi na ukarabati kama zilivyokusudiwa.

Kati ya vyuo 55 vya FDCs vyuo 20 vitakarabatiwa na kujengwa katika awamu hii ya kwanza ambapo upembuzi yakinifu unatarajiwa kuanza mapema wiki ijayo.
Mafunzo hayo yameratibiwa na mradi wa kukuza stadi za kazi na ajira, ESPJ.
