SERIKALI YATANGAZA RASMI MIKOA MIPYA MINNE NA WILAYA 19

Source; Francis Godwin

Waziri mkuu Mizengo Pinda

Habari ambayo imetua hivi punde katika mtandao huu www.francisgodwin.blogspot.com inadai kuwa serikali imetoa matangazo rasmi ya Serikali (Government Notices) kuhusu uanzishaji wa mikoa mipya minne na wilaya mpya 19 ambayo yamechapishwa tangu Machi 2, mwaka huu.

Waziri Mkuu Mizengo Pinda amesema matangazo hayo ambayo yalisainiwa na Rais Jakaya Kikwete tangu Machi mosi, 2012, yanabainisha mikoa mipya kuwa ni Geita, Katavi, Njombe na Simiyu. Mikoa hii imechapishwa katika Tangazo la Serikali Na. 72.

Wilaya 19 ambazo zimeanzishwa na kuchapishwa katika Tangazo la Serikali Na.73 ni Buhigwe, Busega, Butiama, Chemba, Gairo, Ikungi na Itilima. Wilaya nyingine ni Kakonko, Kalambo, Kaliua, Kyerwa, Mbogwe, Mkalama na Mlele. Nyingine ni Momba, Nyang’hwale, Nyasa, Uvinza na Wanging’ombe.

Kwa mujibu wa matangazo hayo makao makuu ya mikoa hiyo mipya minne yatakuwa kama ifuatavyo: Geita (Geita), Simiyu (Bariadi) Njombe (Njombe) na Katavi (Mpanda).

Mikoa hiyo itakuwa na wilaya zifuatazo; Geita utakuwa na wilaya tano za Bukombe, Chato, Geita, Mbongwe na Nyang’hwale. Mkoa wa Katavi utakuwa na wilaya mbili za Mlele na Mpanda. Mkoa wa Njombe utakuwa na wilaya nne za Makete, Njombe, Ludewa na Wanging’ombe wakati mkoa wa Simiyu utakuwa na wilaya tano za Bariadi, Busega, Maswa, Meatu na Itilima.

Makao makuu ya wilaya mpya zilizoanzishwa ni kama ifuatavyo: Buhigwe (Buhigwe); Busega (Nyashimo); Butiama (Butiama); Chemba (Chemba); Gairo (Gairo); Ikungi (Ikungi) Itilima (Lagangabilili); Kakonko (Kakonko); Kalambo (Matai) na Kaliua (Kaliua).

Nyingine ni Kyerwa (Rubwera); Mbogwe (Mbogwe); Mkalama (Nduguti); Mlele (Inyonga); Momba (Chitete); Nyang’hwale (Kharumwa); Nyasa (Mbamba Bay); Uvinza (Lugufu) na Igwachanya (Wanging’ombe).

Julai 2010, kabla Rais Kikwete hajatoa hotuba ya kulivunja Bunge, Serikali ilitoa uamuzi wa kuunda mikoa mipya minne na wilaya mpya 21. Hata hivyo, baada ya kuhakiki mipaka ya maeneo hayo yote na kuandaa maelezo ya mipaka hiyo vizuri (boundary descriptions), wilaya zilipunguzwa na kubakia 19.

Leo (08.03.2012) ni siku ya wanawake duniani

Haki ya wanawake kushiriki katika maisha ya kisiasa imesisitizwa katika mikataba kadhaa ya kimataifa, lakini kuibadilisha haki kutoka kwa maandiko hadi kwenye vitendo kunahitaji jitihada zaidi miongoni mwa wahusika.

Kulingana na ripoti mpya ya utafiti iliyochapishwa kwa ushirikiano wa Shirika la Mpango wa Maendeleo la Umoja wa Mataifa – UNDP na Taasisi ya Taifa ya Demokrasia kwa Masuala ya Kimataifa, ni kwamba ijapokuwa asilimia 40 hadi 50 ya wanachama wa vyama vya kisasa kote ulimwenguni ni wanawake, asilimia 10 pekee ndio inashikilia nyadhifa za uongozi.

Msimamizi wa UNDP Helen Clark anasema kuwa huku kukiwa na chini ya asilimia 20 ya viti vya bunge ulimwenguni vinavyokaliwa na wanawake, ni wazi kwamba vyama vya kisiasa vinahitaji kupiga hatua zaidi na vinahitaji kusaidiwa katika juhudi hizo, za kuwasaidia wanawake katika kujiimarisha kisiasa.

Ushiriki wa vyama vya siasa ni muhimu kwa wanawake

 Naibu Katibu Mkuu wa UN Asha-Rose Migiro,

Mkurugenzi wa Kikundi cha Jinsia cha Shirika la UNDP Winnie Byanyima ameliambia shirika la habari la IPS kuwa ikiwa tunataka kueneza demokrasia na kuwapa uwezo wanawake kisiasa, ni sharti tushirikiane na vyama vya kisiasa. 

Byanyima ambaye ni mbunge wa zamani wa Uganda na pia mwanadiplomasia aliongeza kuwa Ikiwa wanawake hawapewa uongozi wa vyama vya kisiasa, basi hawawezi kuziongoza serikali.

Kimataifa, idadi ya mawaziri wanawake serikalini iko chini ikiwa ni kiwango cha wastani cha asilimia 16. Na idadi ya viongozi wanawake wa nchi na serikali bado iko chini, na imepungua katika miaka ya hivi karibuni, ikiwa nini chini ya asilimia tano katika mwaka wa 2011.

Utafiti huo unasema idadi hiyo ya chini imeendelea kushuhudiwa katika miongo mitatu iliyopita ya uhamasisho na juhudi za jamii ya kimataifa kuangamiza ubaguzi na kuwapa uwezo wanawake.

Umoja wa Mataifa watambua jukumu la wanawake

Waziri Mambo ya Nchi za Nje wa Marekani Hillary Clinton

Na hili linafanyika licha ya ukweli kuwa Umoja wa Mataifa ulilitambua jukumu muhimu la wanawake katika maendeleo ikiwemo kuwapa uwezo wanawake kama mojawapo ya malengo manane ya Maendeleo ya Milenia katika mwaka wa 2000. Lakini kwa mujibu wa utafiti huo, hakuna eneo lolote ulimwenguni ambalo liko katika harakati za kufikia asilimia 30 ya wanawake katika nafasi za kufanya maamuzi.

Ijapokuwa kunayo maeneo yanayojaribu kujizatiti na kutimiza lengo hilo, vizingiti kadhaa vingali njiani mwa juhudi za wanawake kushiriki kikamilifu kama wagombea.

Kulingana na takwimu za hivi punde za Chama cha Kimataifa cha Wabunge IPU na Wanawake wa Umoja wa Mataifa, idadi ya wanawake kama viongozi wa nchi au serikali ni 18 kati ya nchi 193.

Utafiti huo wa UNDP na NDI unataja baadhi ya mikakati inayoweza kutumiwa wakati wa uchaguzi, kama vile kuwapa mafunzo na kuwahimiza wagombea wa kike na kuhakikisha wanawake wanaonekana kwa wingi katika kampeni.

Wanawake na wanaume wawe katika uwiano sawa kimaendeleo

Mkuu wa Kamisheni ya Umoja wa Mataifa ya Haki za

 Binadamu Navi Pillay

Shirika la NDI linasema limefanya kazi na zaidi ya vyama 720 vya kisiasa na mashirika katika zaidi ya nchi 80 ili kuweka mazingira bora na ya wazi ambapo wanaume na wanawake wanaweza kushiriki kikamilifu katika mchakato wa demokrasia.

Katika awamu ya kabla ya uchaguzi, usajili na uteuzi wa wagombea ni shughuli muhimu zaidi ya kuhakikisha kuwa wanawake wanashiriki siasa. Lakini pengo la jinsia hupanuka kwa kiwango kikubwa wakati wagombea wa nyadhifa za kisiasa wakisonga kutoka hatua ya kuwa halali na kuwa wagombea, na kisha kuteuliwa na chama kuwa wagombea wa nyadhifa hizo.

Utafiti huo unataja mifano kadhaa ya usawa wa kijinsia chama kimoja cha kisiasa nchini Canada kina kamati ya kuwasajili wagombea ili kuhakikisha mchanganyiko katika uteuzi wa wagombea. Nchini Costa Rica, moja ya vyama vya kisiasa hubadilisha wagombea wa kiume na kike kwenye orodha ya uchaguzi.

Nchini Afrika Kusini, wanachama wa kike katika vyama walishinikiza mabadiliko katika ratiba ya bunge ili kuwajumuisha wabunge wenye familia, na pia wakashinikiza mijadala kumalizika mapema jioni ili kuwapa nafasi wabunge walio na familia na kwa vifaa vya malezi ya watoto kuwekwa.

Nchini Ujerumani, chama cha Christian Democratic Union (CDU) kiliidhinisha asilimia 33 ya viti maalum vya maafisa wa chama katika mwaka wa 1996. Na ikiwa viti hivyo maalum havitapatikana, uchaguzi wa ndani sharti urudiwe.
