Africa urged to shun wholesale imports of Western democracy models

By Costantine Sebastian ,The Citizen Reporter

 Dar es Salaam. Africa’s attempts to ape democracy models, mostly from the West, have been the major causes of governance pitfalls, economic failures, democratic chaos and overall growth nightmares that continue to haunt the continent, according to development strategists and activists.

They want Africans and their leaders to quickly shun the trend that has led to failed states and stuck most people in the quagmire of abject poverty. The strategists and activists warn that without changing the status quo, the future and prosperity of Africa will always remain compromised.

Speaking at the 2nd International Conference on Democratic Governance in Africa, Asia and the Middle East, held in Kigali early this week, participants called for a new internal development order. Many wondered why most African countries were still so poor, unashamed of their status as economic beggars and recipients of development aid when the continent was blessed with abundant resources.

“The time for change is now,” noted Dr John Samuel, President of the Institute for Sustainable Development and Governance in India. “Our countries should immediately adopt democratic models that suit their circumstances and address their individual needs.”

They suggested that the models that can propel the poor nations to prosperity are those which take into account the culture and historical background of the people.

The scholars, practitioners, decision makers and other development stakeholders at the three-day conference emphasized the need for home grown initiatives on problems affecting the developing world.

Under the theme, “Accountability and Youth Engagement for Sustainable Development,” they maintained that unity was a must especially among African countries if they are to have a voice on world matters.

“Direct implementation of models imposed or suggested by Western powers will never bring real change and make a significant difference in our lives,” Gabonese journalist Yves Laurent Goma told The Citizen on Sunday on the sidelines of the summit meeting held as part of Rwanda’s Commemoration of 20 Years of Liberation.

Organised by the Rwanda Governance Board (RGB), the UN and Cheyney University of the United States, the conference sought among other things to explore constraints to good governance. It also explored emerging opportunities of democratic governance and has been one of the highlights of events to mark 20 Years of Rwanda’s Liberation that climaxed on Friday.

The conference is a biannual event which was first held in Philadelphia, US in 2012.

“With 54 countries, Africa can have a voice but the problem is African countries are so easily manipulated and divided,” said Dr Jendayi Fraser, the former US under Secretary of State for Africa Affairs.

Emphasis was also put on the need for increased cooperation over competition among African countries. Dr Sumbye Kapena from the School of Business at the Copperbelt University of Zambia noted that “Africa can have one voice if we all stop competing and put our voices together.”

Some participants said African leaders too, have a hand in the continent’s woes, with a Tanzanian delegate suggesting that good leadership was most important for the future of Africa, but that this was currently wanting in many of these countries.

He described the current generation of leaders as mostly a total failure and let-down. He called on the old leaders still in power to exit the political arena and let a new breed of leaders take charge.

“Consider our case (Tanzania)…we shouldn’t be poor with all the natural resources and human capital around,” he pleaded anonymity lest his views hurt some people in high places.

“We have been mostly let down by poor leadership and bad policies…full stop. Just look at Rwanda and you will see what I mean,” he added noting that discipline and seriousness at all levels was lacking in his country.

Meanwhile, Mr Bulent Akarcali, a Turkish entrepreneur and a panellist at the conference, criticised Western donors for imposing policies on developing nations, arguing that directly copying democratic models from the West tended to disrupt governance and undermined prospects for long-term development.

“Countries in sub-Saharan Africa and Asia were targeted by Western powers because of their wealth in natural resources. All that the big powers want is to disrupt governance and get what they want, so they forced developing nations to implement systems of democracy that undermine the history and cultures of people,” Akarcali said.

“Real democracy must not be complicated and must put into context the cultural systems of countries. Europe and America are not a monopoly of democracy and they should not dictate models to Africa and Asia.”

Rwanda Management Institute Director-General Wellars Gasamagera echoed the views of Akarcali saying “there is no rule book for governance” and that every country is involved in a unique process based on its own internal challenges.

“Citizen participation is the key at all stages of democracy, yet levels of participation vary according to contexts and situations,” Gasamagera said.

Rwandan Local Government Minister James Musoni urged that all countries still on the path of development should seek home-grown initiatives in order to bring about meaningful transformation to their societies.

“It is generally accepted that ‘democratic governance’ comes as a pre-requisite to the broad socio-economic development of society. However, in order to translate a principle into tangible results, … strong political will for good, inclusive and accountable governance stemming from the very top, is key in the establishment of effective and citizen-responsive institutions,” he said.

 

Angola renouvelle ses relations avec la France.

Il faut aussi signaler que l’Angola est un acteur principal dans la SADC; la communauté des pays du sud de l’Afrique. admin

Le président angolais José Eduardo Dos Santos entame mardi 29 avril une visite officielle de deux jours en France. A midi, il aura un entretien et un déjeuner officiel à l’Elysée avec son homologue français, François Hollande. C’est la première visite en France du président Dos Santos depuis l’affaire des ventes d’armes russes à l’Angola – l’Angolagate – qui a éclaté en France à la fin de l’année 2000, avec des poursuites judiciaires contre l’homme d’affaires franco-brésilien Pierre Falcone. Une affaire qui a crispé les relations entre les deux pays.

Les relations entre les deux pays ont souvent été difficiles mais désormais, Paris souhaite « passer à une nouvelle étape ».

Il faut dire que le dernier épisode dans la querelle franco-angolaise ressemble plutôt à un pied de nez. Les autorités de Luanda ont effectivement décidé d’accorder à Pierre Falcone, sous contrôle judiciaire en France, le statut de conseiller diplomatique de leur délégation auprès de l’Unesco à Paris.

Pour Luanda, il fallait protéger Pierre Falcone qui a aidé l’Angola à acheter des armes à un moment où le pays en avait besoin pour sa survie, mais également passer un message de fermeté aux autorités françaises qui n’ont pas tenu leurs promesses dans « l’Angolagate ».

Dans cette affaire en effet, plusieurs personnalités politiques françaises, suspectées d’avoir été les bénéficiaires de commissions occultes, avaient été mises en cause et José Eduardo dos Santos s’était personnellement impliqué pour demander le retrait des plaintes. Depuis lors, le chef de l’Etat angolais boudait la France et notamment le sud où il avait l’habitude de passer ses vacances d’été.

Sur le plan économique, Luanda a également multiplié les menaces voilées concernant la poursuite du partenariat en matière de pétrole sans pour autant prendre des mesures de rétorsion contre Total, le groupe français, qui demeure dans ce secteur deuxième partenaire de l’Angola .

Lors de cette visite officielle en France, le président angolais s’entretiendra également avec le président de l’Assemblée nationale puis rencontrera des patrons de grandes entreprises françaises, des hommes d’affaires et des investisseurs représentant plusieurs secteurs d’activité.

When the French clock off at 6pm, they really mean it

A new labour agreement in France means that employees must ignore their bosses’ work emails once they are out of the office and relaxing at home – even on their smartphones

Just in case you weren’t jealous enough of the French already, what with their effortless style, lovely accents and collective will to calorie control, they have now just banned bosses from bothering them once the working day is done.

Well, sort of. Après noticing that the ability of bosses to invade their employees’ home lives via smartphone at any heure of the day or night was enabling real work hours to extend further and further beyond the 35-hour week the country famously introduced in 1999, workers’ unions have been fighting back. Now employers’ federations and unions have signed a new, legally binding labour agreement that will require employers to make sure staff “disconnect” outside of working hours.

Under the deal, which affects around 250,000 employees in the technology and consultancy sectors (including the French arms of Google, Facebook, Deloitte and PwC), employees will also have to resist the temptation to look at work-related material on their computers orsmartphones – or any other kind of malevolent intrusion into the time they have been nationally mandated to spend on whatever the French call la dolce vita. And companies must ensure that their employees come under no pressure to do so. Thus the spirit of the law – and of France – as well as the letter shall be observed.

That’s right. While we poor, pallid, cowering Brits scurry about, increasingly cowed by the threat of recession-based redundancy and government measures that privilege bosses’ and shareholder comfort over workers’ rights, the continentals are clocking off. While we’re staring down the barrel of another late one/extra shift/all-nighter, across the Channel they’re sipping sancerre and contemplating at least the second half of a cinq à sept before going home to enjoy the rest of that lovely “work/133-hours-per-week-of-life” balance.

C’est all right pour some, quoi?

• This article was amended on 11 April 2014. An earlier version stated that the labour deal would affect “a million employees” and require staff “to switch off their phones after 6pm”. The deal obliges staff to “disconnect” from work calls and emails after working hours to ensure they receive the full minimum rest periods already mandated in French employment regulations but there is no particular time at which they are required to do so. While the deal was signed by unions representing 1 million employees, it will affect only 250,000 workers directly.

Nk’uko tubikesha ikinyamakuru Jeune Afrique, ubukungu bw’u Rwanda mu gihembwe cya gatatu cya 2013 bwaracumbagiye cyane. Bivuye ku mibare itangazwa na banki y’igihugu ikaba yerekana ko ubukungu bwazamutseho 3.9% akaba ari bwo bwa mbere  kuva mu mwaka wa 2009.Ubusanzwe ubukungu bw’u Rwanda bwazamukagaho ku gipimo cyo hejuru ya 7% kuva mu mwaka wa 2008 kugeza muri 2012.

Ikigega mpuzamahanga FMI kigendeye ku mibare yari isanzwe itangazwa cyari cyatangaje ko ubukungu bw’u Rwanda bushobora kuzazamukaho 6.6% mu mwaka wa 2013 na 7.5 mu mwaka wa 2014. Cyakora iri hungabana ryo mu gihembwe gishize ritumye abantu batangira kubigiraho amakenga. Ubundi ku bazi iby’ibarurishamibare, guteganya uko ubukungu buzagenda bashingira ku byo babona bisanzwe biba. Urugero, niba ubukungu busanzwe buzamuka, biroroshye guhita ufata umwanzuro ko buzakomeza kuzamuka, nanone niba burimo kumanuka nta gihamya ifatika ko bugiye guhita buzamuka. Gusa rero abazi iby’ubukungu bagendera cyane ku ihame ryitwa “ceteris paribus” ni ukuvuga ngo hatagize igihinduka. N’ubwo mu buzima bigoye kubona ko nta kizahinduka, ariko ibyo abanyabukungu bavuga akenshi biba byo.

Hari ibintu bibiri by’ingenzi bijyanye n’iri hungabana ry’ubunkungu. Icya mbere ni uko M23 yatsinzwe muri iki gihembwe ikindi ni uko ifaranga ry’u Rwanda ryataye agaciro ku buryo burushije ibyabaye ku yandi mafranga. Mu gihe Leta y’u Rwanda ivuga ko ubukungu buzahita bwongera kuzamuka, ababikurikiranira hafi bo basanga gustindwa kw’umutwe M23 washinzwe ukanaterwa inkunga na Leta ya Kigali ari yo mpamvu nyirabayazana. Aba bemeza ko u Rwanda rwasahuraga ibintu byinshi muri Congo bikabarwa nk’umusaruro w’u Rwanda. Ibi bikaba bisobanura ko gutsindwa kwa M 23 kugomba kujyana no guhungabana kw’ubukungu bw’igihugu. Reka twibutse ko iki kibazo cya M23 ari cyo cyari cyatumye ibihugu bimwe na bimwe bihagarika inkunga byageneraga u Rwanda, dore ko 40% by’ingengo y’imari y’ u Rwanda iva mu mfashanyo z’amahanga. Hari abo ibi bitangaza cyane cyane iyo bumvise ivogonyo ry’abategetsi ba FPR.

Mu kwezi kwa Nyakanga 2013 idolari rimwe rya America ryavunjwaga ku mafranga 655 y’amanyarwanda , naho kurigura bigasaba 660. Nyamara muri uku kwezi kwa Mutarama 2014, idolari rimwe ry’America rivunjwa ku manyarwanda 666.1 naho kurigura bigasaba 709.1. Ni ukuvuga ko ifranga ry’u Rwanda ryataye agaciro ho amafranga 11 cyangwa se 1.7% mu gihe cy’amezi makeya cyane. Ikintu gitangaje ariko ni uko iyi mibare itangazwa na ORINFOR itandukanye cyane n’itangazwa na Banki y’igihugu kuko yo yerekana ko idolari ry’amanyamerika rivunjwa amanyarwanda 673.3 hanyuma rikagurwa 679.7.

Ikigega FMI cyo kiratangaza ko kidatangajwe n’iri hungabana ngo kuko n’ubundi ubukungu bw’igihugu busanzwe bujegajega kuko umusaruro uturuka mu Rwanda ari mukeya cyane. FMI itanga inama ko u Rwanda rugomba gushakisha uburyo bwo kubona amafranga yabwo yo gushora mu majyambere kuko no kugurisha impapuro z’agaciro ku masoko mpuzamahanga ngo bifite ibibazo bijyana nazo.

Nyuma y’aho igihugu cya Leta zunze ubumwe z’America gitoye itegeko rikomanyiriza amabuye y’agaciro ya Colta, wolframa na gasegereti acuruzwa n’u Rwanda kubera ko ubushakashatsi bwagaragaje ko aya mabuye yibwa muri Congo, amagambo yabaye menshi ku ruhande rw’u Rwanda. Igitangaje ni uko bavuga ngo u Rwanda rurusha Congo amabuye y’agaciro!!!! Ikinyoma FPR yimitse kizashira ryari? Barangiza bakinyuramo cyakora ngo “u Rwanda rumaze gusubiza igihugu cya Congo Kinshasa amabuye y’agaciro asaga toni 48 yari yageze mu Rwanda ku buryo butemewe”. Icyo se si ikimenyesto cy’ubujura nyine? Naragenze ndabona.

Kuba u Rwanda hari amabuye y’agaciro rugurisha kurusha DRC nta gitangaza kirimo

Iki kibazo cyahuje abanyamakuru banyuranye b’ibitangazamakuru bikorera mu Rwanda, ubwo kuva kuwa mbere tariki ya 23 no kuwa 24 Ukuboza bari mu nama nyunguranabitekerezo yiga ku ngamba zakoreshwa biciye mu itangazamakuru kugira ngo amabuye ava mu Rwanda acuruzwe nta nkomyi.

Inyungu za politiki n’iz’ubukungu ku bihugu bikomeye

Mu nama y’Abakuru b’ibihugu yabereye mu mujyi wa Lusaka mu gihugu cya Zambia, abakuru b’ibihugu 12 bigize Ihuriro Rishinzwe gukemura ibibazo byo mu karere k’Ibiyaga Bigari (ICGLR) biyemeje gushyiraho ingamba zigamije gukumira ubucukunzi bw’amabuye y’agaciro budakurikije amategeko.

Ingamba esheshatu zashyizweho zirimo iyo kujya hatangwa urupapuro ruherekeza amabuye ajya ku isoko, rugatangwa n’urwego ruzwi, Guhuza amategeko ku bihugu 12 bigize ICGLR harimo u Rwanda, Burundi, DRC, Repubulika ya Rubanda ya Congo, Angola, Zambia n’ibindi, harimo no gukora imibare yerekana uko amabuye, yacukuwe, yacurujwe n’umusaruro yatanze.

Ingamba yindi yari iyo gushyiraho uburyo bwo gucukura mu muryo bwemewe, iyindi ni uko hajyaho uburyo bwo kugenzura inga hakamenyekana ingano y’amabuye inganda zacuruje n’umutungo wavuyemo, na ho iyanyuma kwari ugutanga impuruza ahabonetse ikibazo hose.

Nk’uko byasobanuriwe abanyamakuru muri iyi nama y’iminsi ibiri n’abakozi bo mu nzego eshatu, Minisiteri y’Ububanyi n’Amahanga, Intumwa y’u Rwanda muri ICGLR i Bujumbura, Ishyirahamwe ry’abackuuzi b’amabuye y’agaciro mu Rwanda n’Ikigo cy’igihugu cy’Umutungo kamere, ngo u Rwanda rwashyize mu bikorwa nyinshi muri izi ngamba zafashwe.

Ndetse byinshi mu bihugu birimo na DRC nta bushake buhagije byerekana mu gushyira mu bikorwa ingamba zafashwe, ariko amabuye y’u Rwanda akaba akibazwaho byinshi ndetse hari abavuga ko “U Rwanda nta mabuye y’agaciro rufite ahagije, bakavuga ko rwiba ayo muri DRC.”

Silas Sinyigaya uhagarariye u Rwanda muri ICGLR i Bujumbura ntatinya kwerekana ko ikibazo cyo gushyira icyasha ku mabuye y’agaciro ava mu Rwanda kw’ibihugu bikomeye ari inyungu za politiki n’iz’ubukungu.

Yagize ati “Birazwi neza ko amaraporo asohoka ku Rwanda ajya akorwa mbere ku buryo bubogamye, ubu bucuruzi bw’amabuye y’agaciro ni bizinesi ikomeye cyane amabuye yo mu Rwanda kuko yujuje ibisabwa aba ahenze, ibihugu bigahitamo kugura kuri magendu ahendutse.”

Nyamara n’ubwo amabuye y’u Rwanda hari amasosiyeti akomeye atayemera avuga ko ava muri DRC n’ibindi, u Rwanda rumaze gusubiza igiuhgu cya Congo Kinshasa amabuye y’agaciro asaga toni 48 yari yageze mu Rwanda ku buryo butemewe.

Karasira Peter wo muri RNRA, avuga ko mu mibare iheruka u Rwanda rwari ku mwanya wa gatatu ku isi mu bihugu bigurisha Coltan, Cassitelite na Walfram imbere ya Congo Kinshasa ariko ngo ibi ntibitangaje kubera impamvu.

Yagize ati “U Rwanda rufite ubutaka buto ugereranyije na DRC ariko rukora ibishoboka rukabujagajaga kandi rugakurikiza amategeko yashyizweho agenga ubucukuzi.

DRC ifite imitungo myinshi ku buryo itita ku mabuye nk’aya adafite agaciro kanini kandi haracyakorwa ubucukuzi gakondo bigoranye kumenya imibare, rero kuba u Rwanda rwarusha Congo gucuruza amabuye si uko rufite menshi kuyirusha ahubwo make rufite ruyakoresha neza.”

Gusa n’ubwo bigoye, umenya urwikekwe ku nkomoko y’amabuye yo muri aka karere izamenyekana ubwo uburyo bwo kwiga ku butaka amabuye yavuyemo, bwitwa AFP (Analytical Finger Print) buzaba bwatangiye gukora n’ubwo butakwizerwa ijana ku ijana.

Mu bicuruzwa u Rwanda rwohereza hanze, amabuye y’agaciro yaje ku mwanya wa kabiri nyuma y’ubukerarugendo bwinjiza amadovize menshi n’ibikomoka ku buhizi biza ku mwanya wa gatatu.

Kuri ubu u Rwanda rufite ahantu hasaga 500 harimo Miyove, Rwinkwavu, Rutongo n’ahandi  hacukurwa amabuye y’agaciro, aho amakompanyi 25 akora uyu murimo ku buryo buzwei na leta.

Tumaze gusoma inkuru yasohotse mu kinyamakuru igihe .com kuri uyu wa 15 Ukuboza 2013, igira itiIkoreshwa nabi ry’umutungo wa Leta, miliyari 136 ntiziragaruzwa  ,  twibajije impamvu amafranga angana na miliyari 136 yose aburirwa irengero nyamara nyuma y’iperereza ubushinjacyaha bukanga gutangaza abakekwaho icyo cyaha. Ikintu cyonyine ubushinjacyaha buvuga ni uko ngo bamwe ari abasirikare bityo amadosiye akaba yarashyikirijwe ubushinjacyaha bwa gisirikare.

Nk’uko amwe mu mashyaka atavuga rumwe na Leta y’agatsiko ka FPR akunze kubivuga, cyane cyane ishyaka ISHEMA ry’u Rwanda, ubutegetsi bw’abasirikare bwagiye bubaho mu Rwanda nta cyiza bwazanye uretse kwikanyiza no kunyunyuza imitsi ya rubanda, ariko byageze kuri FPR yo isya itanzitse. Uku guhishira abanyereza umutungo wa leta bivuga ko amakuru aba yerekanye ko abariye aya mafranga ari ba babandi bo mu nda y’ingoma bityo bikaba ” atari ngombwa ko bashyirwa ahagaragara”!!!.

Kuba imicungire mibi igaragara muri leta ya FPR ni ikimenyetso gifatika cy’uko amafranga yakwa abaturage hatabanje kwerekanwa uko azacungwa aba ari agacuzo. Urugero ikigega cyiswe Agaciro Development Fund kikajyaho nta mategeko azwi akigenga, nta we ugishinzwe uzwi, none amafranga arimo kubura ubushinjacyaha bukinumira ngo si ngombwa kuvuga amazina yabo? Koko? These people are not serious!

Nta n’uwabura gukeka ko aya mafranga aba yafashwe na Kagame ubwe , dore ko itangazamakuru riherutse kumutera imboni aho yari arimo kugura umutamenwa muri Leta zunze ubumwe z’Amerika mu gihe abandi ba  perezida bari mu muhango wo gusezera kuri Mandela.

Nawe isomere iyo nkuru ya Deus ugire icyo ubivugaho:

Ikoreshwa nabi ry’umutungo wa Leta, miliyari 136 ntiziragaruzwa

 

Ubushinjacyaha bukuru bwashyize ahagaragara raporo y’ibyo bwakozwe kuri raporo y’Umugenzuzi Mukuru w’imari ya Leta y’umwaka w’ingengo y’imari 2010-2011 bugaragaza ko muri miliyari 160 zaburiwe irengero hagarujwemo miliyari 24.

Ubushinjacyaha bwagiranye ikiganiro n’abanyamakuru ku itariki ya 12 Ukuboza 2013, bugaragaza ko dosiye zimwe z’abakekwaho kugira uruhare mu gucunga nabi umutungo zashyikirijwe inkiko.

Miliyoni 160 yaburiwe irengero ku buryo budasobanutse kuva Umugenzuzi Mukuru w’Imari ya leta yatangira kugenzura ikoreshwa ry’amafaranga yayo.

Ubushinjacyaha bukuru mu guhangana n’iki kibazo cy’icunga nabi ry’uyu mutungo wa rubanda, bukurikirana ibyaha birimo ibiboneka mu micungire mibi y’imari ya leta nko kunyuranya n’itegeko n’amabwiriza bigenga amasoko ya leta, gusonera no kunyereza imisoro mu buryo bunyuranyije n’amategeko, ubuhemu, gutangira ubusa ibya leta n’ubujura.

Ikurikiranwa ry’amadosiye

Muri iyi raporo, Ubushinjacyaha bwagaragaje ko ibigo 107 byagenzuwe, 90 muri byo byakorewe iperereza, 2 muri byo raporo zabyo zoherezwa mu Bushinjacyaha bwa gisirikare kuko zarimo abasirikari.

Amadosiye 93 yagombaga kwigwa, 35 aregewe muri yo yaregewe inkiko, 56 arashyingurwa, abiri yo yoherejwe mu Bushinjacyaha bwa gisirikari.

Amafaranga yaburiye mu itangwa ry’amasoko ya Leta

Mu masoko ya leta yatanzwe nabi akubiye muri miliyari zisaga 7, gusa ngo si ukuvuga ko aya mafaranga ashobora kuba atarageze mu isanduku ya leta, ahubwo ngo hari zimwe mu ngingo zagiye zirengagizwa mu gutanga aya masoko, aho abakekwaho uruhare bagiye bashyikirizwa inzego zibishinzwe.

Muri aya mafaranga harimo abakozi 37 baciwe ihazabu ingana na miliyoni 14 n’ibihumbi 200, hakabamo n’abandi bakozi ba leta 34 basubije umusoro n’andi mafaranga ategetswe angana na miliyoni 11 n’ibihumbi 266. Bose hamwe aba bakozi bakaba ari 47 basubije amafaranga y’u Rwanda asaga miliyoni 25.

Mu yagarujwe, harimo ayari yarakoreshejwe nabi n’abayobozi bakuru muri leta, ni ukuvuga kuva ku rwego rwa Minisitiri kuzamura, hakabamo n’abatarakurikije inzira zisabwa mu kwishyura imisoro isabwa ku kintu runaka.

Ubushinjacyaha bwagaragaje ko ubusanzwe abayobozi bakuru hari amafaranga babwa nyuma bakazerekana uko bayakoresheje mu gihe baba bari mu butumwa mu mahanga.

Muri abo, Umushinjacyaha mukuru, Muhumuza Richard, yabibwiye abanyamakuru ko hari bamwe muri bo batabashije kwerekana ku gihe ibyo bakoresheje aya mafaranga, bategekwa kuyagarura mu isanduku ya leta.

Umushinjacyaha mukuru, Muhumuza Richard (hagati) mu kiganiro n’abanyamakuru

Amatsiko y’abanyamakuru yarapfukiranwe

Muri aba bayobozi ngo harimo abakuru, ubwo abanyamakuru babazaga mazina yabo, umushinjacyaha mukuru Muhumuza Richard yavuze ko atari ngombwa gutangaza amazina yabo ahubwo ko icya ngombwa ariko abagaruye aya mafaranga.

Muhumuza yagize ati “Dusanga atari ngombwa ko ikigo runaka gishyirwa ahagaragara kuvuga ngo bigaragare mu itangazamakuru, bibaye ngombwa twabigaragaa ariko tubona ntacyo byakongera kuri makuru tuba twatanze cyane ko barimo gukurikiranwa”.
Yakomeje avuga ko n’abagize amakosa muri iki kibazo barimo abayobozi nabo bagiye bayagarura.

Abanyamakuru bakomeje kubaza impamvu aba bayobozi badatangarizwa abanyamakuru ndetse n’abakozi mu bigo bya leta baterekwa itangazamakuru bikozwe n’Ubushinjacyaha nk’uko urwo rwego rujya ruubikora ku bayobozi bo mu nzego z’ibanze nko ku Kagari, Umurenge n’Akarere.

Umwe muri aba banyamakuru yagize ati “ Mwatubwiye aba bayobozi tukabamenye, kuki baterekwa itangazamakuru nk’uko Ubushinjacyaha bujya burihamagara abayobozi runaka b’inzego z’ibanze hari ibyaha bakekwaho, yaba ruswa n’ibindi.”

Abanyamakuru basaga icya kabiri cy’abari bitabiriye inama yo kumurikirwa iyi raporo bakomeje babaza impamvu aba bayobozi badashyirwa ku karubanda.

Kuri iki kibazo bakomeje kubwirwa ko atari ngomba kuko bayasubiza, gusa ngo baba bagaragajwe muri rusange.

Urwego rw’Ubushinjacyaha bukuru buvuga ko ibi byaha bihangayikishije kuko akenshi usanga amafaranga aba akoreshwa ari ay’abaturage.

Muri rusange ngo amakosa yagiye akorwa yaragabanutse kuko mbere yo gutangaza iyi raporo hari hari abantu 192 bakoze ayo mu rwego rw’akazi barahanwa, ariko ubu muri raporo iheruka babaye 42 ikibazo cyabo cyashyikirijwe ibiro bya Minisitiri w’intebe yasabye ko bahanwa ku rwego rw’akazi.

Hashingiwe kuri iyi raporo, ibigo n’imishinga 35 byaregewe inkiko, 78 baregerwa inkiko ku rwego rw’igihugu, ku rwego rw’uturere baba 80, abarezwe bose hamwe baba 158 bagaragaye muri iyi micungire mibi. Kuri ubu ngo imanza zikaba zaratangiye.

Itsinda rikurikirana imari ya leta ryashyizweho n’icyemezo cyo mu mwaka wa 2007 ni itsinda rigizwe n’abashinjacyaha 19 rigamije gukurikirana imari ya leta.

Ubushinjacyaha bwagaragaje ko kunyuranya n’itegeko n’amabwiriza bigenga amasoko ya leta ni byo byagaragaye cyane ko biri ku kigero cya 55,9% ugereranyije n’ibindi mu kumunga ubukungu bw’igihgu.

Kikwete Absent Again As EA Leaders Hold Summit

Leave a reply

Ugandan president Yoweri Museveni on Monday morning joined fellow East African leaders in the Rwandan capital Kigali for the 3rd Infrastructure Summit.

KIGALI

Museveni arrives in Kigali

Presidents Salva Kiir Mayardit of South Sudan, President Uhuru Kenyatta of the Republic of Kenya and their host Paul Kagame are the other leaders attending the summit.

The leaders welcomed South Sudan to the initiative and are expected to launch the Single Customs Territory and review the progress of infrastructure projects led by each country.

Leaders from Tanzania and Burundi are conspicuously missing from the summit.

The summit is an initiative bringing together the four countries to fast track regional development through infrastructure, trade and political and economic integration.

At the inaugural Tripartite Summit held in Entebbe in June this year, leaders of Uganda, Kenya and Rwanda spearhead different components of joint projects: Uganda committed to lead the railway development and political federation sector; Rwanda on customs, single tourist visa and East African Community e-identity card; and Kenya on the implementation of the oil pipeline and electricity generation.

The follow-up summit held in Mombasa saw the heads of state participate in the commissioning of Berth 19, which will increase capacity of the Kenyan port to serve the entire region.

Tanzania ‘Stalling Integration’

The East African Community (EAC) has in the recent raised concerns over Tanzania’s commitment to the regional integration process.

The EAC Secretary General Dr Richard Sezibera recently hit out at those dilly-dallying over integration process, saying they were missing the point.

Dr Sezibera said Tanzania has faltered on a number of key issues agreed upon by EAC regional States including the liberation of its current accounts and waiving of work permit fees.

“We don’t have compelling powers over those countries which seem not to be co-operating with the process of regional integration but the EAC treaty provides for the Secretary-General to take a country that is lagging behind to court. But this is a long process,” Sezibera was quoted by the media recently.

Tanzania’s commitment to regional  integration has been under sharp focus since Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania agreed to revive the defunct EAC in 1997. Tanzania has been viewed as a reluctant party to the integration process.

Tanzania’s absence at the Monday summit further raises fears over its government’s commitment to the regional integration efforts.
