ILANI YA CCM KWA AJILI YA UCHAGUZI MKUU WA MWAKA 2015 - UTANGULIZI



Utangulizi

1. Ilani ya Uchaguzi ya Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) kwa ajili ya Uchaguzi Mkuu wa mwaka 2015 wa kuwachagua Rais wa Jamhuri ya Muungano wa Tanzania, Rais wa Zanzibar, Wabunge, Wajumbe wa Baraza la Wawakilishi na Madiwani imeandaliwa ikiwa ni mkataba kati ya CCM na wananchi. Ilani hii imeandikwa kwa kuzingatia Dira ya Maendeleo ya Taifa ya 2025 na Mwelekeo wa Sera za CCM zenye lengo na nia ya kuendelea kuwatumikia wananchi kwa kipindi cha miaka mitano ijayo (2015-2020).

2. Ilani hii ni tamko maalumu kwa wapiga kura kuhusu nia ya CCM ya kuendelea kushika dola na kuwaongoza Watanzania kwa njia ya kidemokrasia, na hasa kuendelea kudumisha amani, umoja wa Kitaifa, usawa, ustawi wa wananchi, Muungano wa Tanganyika na Zanzibar na Mapinduzi Matukufu ya Zanzibar kwa kipindi kingine cha miaka mitano.

3. Nia na uwezo wa CCM wa kuendelea kuongoza Taifa hili unajidhihirisha katika uzoefu ambao tumeupata kwa miaka 38 tangu kuanzishwa kwake na kuwa madarakani, ambapo katika kipindi chote hiki kimeiwezesha nchi yetu kupata mafanikio makubwa katika nyanja za kiuchumi, kisiasa na kijamii.

4. Katika miaka mitano ijayo (2015-2020), CCM ikiwa madarakani, itazielekeza Serikali zake kutumia nguvu zake zote kuendelea kupambana na changamoto kubwa nne:-
Kwanza kuondoa umaskini; pili kupunguza tatizo la ukosefu wa ajira hasa kwa vijana; tatu kuendeleza vita dhidi ya adui rushwa na ubadhirifu wa mali ya umma; na nne kuendelea kudumisha amani, ulinzi na usalama wa maisha ya wananchi na
mali zao.

Kupambana na Umasikini
5. Pamoja na mafanikio ya kukua kwa uchumi na ongezeko la huduma za kijamii yaliyopatikana katika kipindi hiki, bado ipo changamoto kubwa ya umasikini wa kipato na usio wa kipato. Takwimu zinaonesha kwamba asilimia 28.2 ya Watanzania ni masikini. Wengi wa wananchi hao wanaishi vijijini (asilimia 75) na wanategemea kilimo katika maisha yao. Wapo pia wananchi masikini wanaoishi mijini ambao wanaendesha maisha yao kupitia shughuli za biashara ndogo ndogo zisizo rasmi.

6. Katika kupambana na changamoto hii, CCM itazielekeza Serikali zake kuboresha
maisha ya wananchi wote na hususan wa vijijini, kwa kuchukua hatua zifuatazo:-
(a) Kuhamasisha kilimo kupitia kauli mbiu ya Kilimo Kwanza kwa kuwawezesha wakulima kupata mafunzo ya kilimo cha kisasa, pembejeo, zana za kisasa na wataalamu wa ugani pamoja na mbinu za kuyafikia masoko ya uhakika ya mazao yao;
(b) Kuongeza kasi ya kupima ardhi yao na kuwapatia hati miliki za kimila ambazo watazitumia kama dhamana ya kuwawezesha kupata mikopo ya kuendeleza shughuli zao za kilimo, ufugaji na uvuvi;
(c) Kuendeleza juhudi za kuimarisha huduma za kijamii ikiwemo elimu, afya, maji, umeme na ujenzi wa nyumba bora; na
(d) Kuongeza kasi ya kurasimisha biashara na kuwapatia wafanyabiashara wadogo maeneo ya kufanyia biashara, leseni na fursa za kupata mikopo yenye masharti
nafuu.

7. Mafanikio ya utekelezaji wa masuala haya yote kwa pamoja yanatarajiwa kuleta mabadiliko makubwa ya kimaendeleo mijini na vijinini, na hivyo kupunguza kwa kiwango kikubwa hali ya umasikini nchini.

Ajira kwa Vijana

8. Suala la ukosefu wa ajira kwa vijana ni moja ya changamoto zinazolikabili Taifa letu na dunia yote kwa ujumla. Katika kipindi cha miaka mitano iliyopita yapo mafanikio yaliyopatikana katika kuongeza ajira. Hata hivyo, mafanikio katika upanuzi wa elimu ya Sekondari na Vyuo yameongeza mahitaji ya ajira ya vijana wasomi kila mwaka ikilinganishwa na nafasi zinazokuwepo.

9. Katika kipindi cha miaka mitano ijayo jitihada za kulipatia ufumbuzi tatizo la ajira nchini zitaendelezwa. Kipaumbele kitakuwa katika kukuza na kuanzisha viwanda vidogo, vya kati na vikubwa vilivyo na uwezo wa kuajiri watu wengi na vyenye kuzalisha bidhaa zinazotumiwa na watu wengi wa ndani ya nchi na zile za kuuza nchi za nje. Aidha, kwa upande wa Tanzania Zanzibar, mikakati ya kuongeza ajira kwa vijana itazingatia mazingira maalamu ya fursa za uchumi wa visiwa.

10. Katika kipindi cha 2015-2020, sekta za uzalishaji mali kama kilimo, ufugaji, uvuvi, viwanda vikubwa na vidogo na huduma za kiuchumi kama vile miundombinu ya nishati, uchukuzi na ujenzi zitaelekeza mipango yao katika kupunguza umasikini na kuanzisha ajira hususan kwa vijana. Aidha, huduma za jamii za elimu, afya na maji
zitajielekeza kusaidia kuondoa umasikini na kuongeza ajira.

Vita dhidi ya Rushwa

11. Jitihada za kuinua uchumi na kuongeza huduma za jamii hazitaleta manufaa kwa wananchi na kuondoa umasikini iwapo adui rushwa ataendelea kulitafuna Taifa letu.
Rushwa ni adui wa haki pia ni adui wa maendeleo na ustawi wa wananchi, hivyo ni moja ya changamoto kubwa inayoikabili nchi yetu na dunia kwa ujumla.
12. Katika kipindi cha miaka mitano ijayo, CCM itazielekeza Serikali zake kuendeleza mapambano dhidi ya adui rushwa kwa nguvu zake zote na kuendelea kuziba mianya ya rushwa katika taasisi za umma; kuchukua hatua kali na za haraka kwa wale wote watakaobainika kuendeleza rushwa Serikalini na katika sekta binafsi; na kuimarisha
vyombo na taasisi zinazohusika na kuzuia na kupambana na rushwa; ikiwa ni pamoja na kuanzisha Mahakama Maalumu kwa ajili ya makosa ya rushwa na uhujumu uchumi.

13. Sambamba na kupambana na tatizo la rushwa, Serikali pia zitatakiwa kushughulikia kwa ukali zaidi tatizo la ubadhirifu na wizi wa mali ya umma, matumizi mabaya ya madaraka, ukiukwaji wa maadili ya uongozi na utumishi wa umma, kuchelewesha kutoa maamuzi yenye maslahi kwa umma na kusimamia uwajibikaji katika kutekeleza masuala yenye maslahi kwa umma.

Ulinzi na Usalama

14. Nchi yetu imepata mafanikio makubwa ya kuwa na amani na utulivu tangu tupate uhuru mwaka 1961 na Mapinduzi ya Zanzibar ya mwaka 1964. Imekuwa kimbilio la watu wa Mataifa ya jirani kila wapatapo matatizo ya uvunjifu wa amani katika nchi zao. Hata hivyo, siku za karibuni vimeanza kuonekana viashiria vinavyoleta hofu ya usalama wa wananchi, hasa vitendo vya mauaji ya watu wenye ulemavu wa ngozi (Albino), kuuawa kwa vikongwe, ukatili dhidi ya wanawake na watoto na tishio la vitendo vyenye mwelekeo wa kigaidi.

15. Katika kipindi cha miaka mitano ijayo, CCM itazielekeza Serikali zake kuendelea kuimarisha vyombo vyote vya ulinzi na usalama kwa kuviongezea raslimali fedha, raslimali watu, maslahi, zana za kisasa na mafunzo. Aidha, elimu kwa umma itatolewa ili kukomesha imani potofu za kishirikina zinazosababisha mauaji ya albino na vikongwe na hatua kali za kisheria zitachukuliwa dhidi ya wale wote watakaobainika kujihusisha na vitendo vya mauaji ya makundi hayo.

Utekelezaji wa Ilani

16. Kazi kubwa ya Serikali za CCM katika kipindi cha miaka mitano ijayo itakuwa ni kuendeleza mapambano dhidi ya umasikini, ukosefu wa ajira, rushwa; na kudumisha umoja, amani, ulinzi na usalama. Ili kutimiza azma hiyo, CCM itazielekeza Serikali zake zisiwe kubwa, zenye watumishi weledi, waadilifu na wawajibikaji. Serikali zisizo na urasimu unaokwamisha na kuchelewesha maamuzi na utekelezaji. Serikali zitakazongeza maradufu au hata zaidi ukusanyaji wa mapato yake ili zijitegemee kadri inavyowezekana kwenye bajeti zake.

17. Vile vile katika kipindi cha Ilani hii, Chama Cha Mapinduzi kitaziagiza Serikali zake kuendeleza na kuimarisha mfumo wa Matokeo Makubwa Sasa (BRN na BRP) katika kutekeleza Ilani na kusimamia utekelezaji wa miradi ya kimkakati na kipaumbele unaozingatia nidhamu ya utekelezaji katika muda uliopangwa, ufuatiliaji makini na wa kina, pamoja na kupata ufumbuzi wa vikwazo na changamoto za utekelezaji.

Kendwa Rock Beach Hotel Yaungua Moto



Chanzo cha moto:Hitilafu ya umeme.

Jengo lilioungua ni la Jiko, Duka na Sehemu ya burudani.

Hasara iliyosababishwa na moto huo, inakisiwa kuwa ni Shilingi bilioni moja.

Zanzibar Is Safe, German Leader Prove It.


Germans have had very interesting relations with Zanzibar. They were here on commercial terms and with counsellor representation before Berlin Conference and occupation of Tanganyika. Almost all their explorers took off for the interior Africa using Zanzibar as their launch pad and least one forget the issue of Heligoland Island that put the two sides on international level when the Sultanate was in control of the whole East African Coastal strip.

Also German soldiers are buried here after their war vessel Konisberg sunk in our territorial water. In all humility they are our family after a German business man eloped with Seyyida Salme, a princess and hence out there is our royal blood.

Zanzibaris would never forget the interest that East Germany took over Zanzibar soon after the 1964 Revolution in recognizing the nascent state and helping out as close friend. Hence it was befitting gesture and high note endorsement of Zanzibar made by the German President when he walked along the Forodhani Road on his arrival, something never done by any visiting leader. The visiting German President was at home.

I am sure President Gauck was thrilled as he was boisterously cheered by the friendliest people on earth chanted for him and Germany which they admire their football and hard work.


The Forodhani Road passes through many land mark buildings such as the Old Dispensary, the Big Tree, the Custom House, the Sultan Palace, The Forodhani Gardens, The Old Fort and the Tembo House. It always feels pleasure to walk the road. To me it was more than a walk surely to see the sea front which needs repair badly and which the German government would intervene to re-enact and strengthen, the same as it has done to pave the narrow streets in one of the biggest project it had undertaken in Zanzibar. Whoever planned for that walk must have thought very well for Zanzibar which for a long time now has been suffering heaps and heaps of blame on insecurity so much at times the exaggeration is beyond belief. The visit killed it all.

A Western Europe leader walking in the streets of Zanzibar, what a script to run for security endorsement in a place where the Western media bombard with stories on religious violence, extremism and connections made with Al Qaeda, Al Shabab and such groups mainly because certain individuals have collaborated with them.

The walk is big public relations to Zanzibar that tourists here are safe despite hiccups on mugging, acid attacks something that can happen anywhere and in fact such attacks are prone at any big city anywhere in the world.

The walk has sent good messages to potential German visitors to Zanzibar being the second biggest group after the Italians. But to the rest like the Britons, the Scandinavians, the Spanish, the Belgians and the Swiss who come to Zanzibar in their droves. Of course the endorsement by German President Gauck comes with very high price which the Zanzibar Government has to pay, as they say there is no free lunch.

It means it has to clear its house and put it into order to match the gesture. Granted there are religious frictions that can lead to extremism. Not refuted that tourists have been attacked and foreign residents have been targeted as criminality is a real threat. Drugs are galore.

Zanzibar cannot relax at all when tourism sector is being threatened because it now its heartbeat with 200,000 visitors per year channelling over 60 per cent in the Zanzibar Government financial machinery.

To me, the doors have been just opened for Zanzibar and it is for us to decide how to walk the distance.
