VIJANA watatu waliuawa kwa kupigwa risasi na watu waliojihami wakiwa na magari yasiyo na nambari za usajili katika kijiji cha Mutoho, Kaunti ya Murang’a, huku polisi wakikana kutekeleza mauaji hayo. Mili ya watatu hao, ilichukuliwa na kupelekwa katika mochari na maafisa wa polisi Jumanne asubuhi, saa kadhaa baada ya kupigwa risasi. Wakuu wa polisi katika kaunti walidai hawafahamu sababu ya mauaji hayo, licha ya ripoti kutoka kwa kamati ya usalama kuonyesha, washukiwa hao watatu, walihusika na uvamizi katika eneo hilo. Mkurugenzi wa Upelelezi wa Jinai, Murang'a Kusini Bw John Kanda, alikanusha kufahamu ripoti ya washukiwa hao pamoja na operesheni ya polisi dhidi ya watatu hao. “Ninachojua, tulifahamishwa na wanakijiji kuwa kuna mili mitatu isiyojulikana eneo la Mutoho. Tulichukua na kupeleka kwenye hifadhi ya maiti. Tukio hilo linachunguzwa,” alisema Bw Kanda. Bw Martin Kamau aliyeshuhudia tukio hilo, alisema watatu hao waliuawa saa tatu usiku Jumatatu na watu walioonekana kuwa polisi. “Watatu hao walikuwa kwenye gari moja. Gari lilisimama kwenye barabara ya Kenol-Murang'a. Waliposhuka kwenye gari hilo, magari mengine mawili yalisimama na kuanza kuwafyatulia risasi,” alisema Bw Kamau. Aliongeza kuwa waliofyatulia watatu hao risasi wanaaminika kuwa polisi kutokana na ujasiri waliokuwa nao. “Baada ya kuwaua, walichukua silaha ndogo kutoka kwa waathiriwa. Walivuta mili hiyo hadi kwenye kichaka kutoka kwa barabara na kuondoka kwenye eneo la tukio huku gari la watatu hao likiachwa,” aliongeza. Bw Kanda alisema kuwa baadhi ya simulizi kutoka kwa mashahidi ni miongoni mwa mambo yanayochunguzwa.

ALIYEKUWA Waziri Msaidizi wa Uchukuzi na Mbunge wa Bomachoge Chache Simon Ogari amefariki. Familia ya Dkt Ogari ilisema alifariki Jumanne asubuhi nyumbani kwake Karen jijini Nairobi. “Hayupo tena, alifariki mwendo wa saa kumi na moja asubuhi. Alikuwa akiugua kwa muda mrefu,” alisema mtu mmoja wa familia. Mwingine aliongeza, “Polisi wapo hapa. Tutatoa maelezo zaidi mara tutakapomalizana nao.” Jamaa walisema kuwa mbunge huyo wa zamani alikuwa akitafuta matibabu mara kwa mara hospitalini kwa miaka miwili iliyopita. Dkt Ogari, 68, alikuwa mbunge wa eneobunge la Bomachoge katika Bunge la 10 na aliwakilisha Bomachoge Chache katika Bunge la 11. Seneta wa Kisii Richard Onyonka aliomboleza marehemu Ogari akisema," alikuwa mtu mwenye adabu, mkarimu na asiye na ubinafsi." “Mbali na kuwa kiongozi mzuri na mfanyakazi mwenzangu, alikuwa rafiki yangu wa kibinafsi kwa miaka mingi. Alikuwa mtu mzuri ambaye mimi binafsi nitamkosa katika kifo chake.” Seneta huyo alisema  kuwa kujitolea kwa Dkt Ogari kuhudumia watu wa Bomachoge kutasalia kuwa mfano bora kwa "sisi sote katika uongozi". "Ogari alifanya kazi bila kuchoka kuinua maisha ya wapiga kura wake, na mchango wake kwa jamii yetu hautasahaulika. Tunapoomboleza msiba huu mkubwa, natuma rambirambi zangu kwa familia yake, marafiki na watu wa Bomachoge," alisema Bw. Onyonka.

MOHAMED Abduba Dida, mwalimu wa zamani ambaye aligombea urais mara mbili na kumaliza mbele ya baadhi ya wanasiasa mashuhuri, anatumikia kifungo cha miaka saba katika jela moja Amerika kwa kunyemelea mtu  na kutoa vitisho. Dida anazuiliwa katika gereza la Big Muddy, Illinois, ambako amekuwa tangu Novemba 18, 2022 baada ya kupatikana na hatia ya kumnyemelea na kumtisha mtu asiyejulikana katika jimbo la Magharibi mwa Amerika. Japo  wakati wa kuchapisha habari hii Taifa Leo haikuwa imethibitisha kuhusu mlalamishi, rekodi katika gereza la Muddy zinaonyesha kuwa mgombea huyo wa zamani wa urais alipatikana na hatia kwa mashtaka mawili tofauti. Alitekeleza makosa hayo  katika Kaunti ya Mclean, Illinois. Katika shtaka la kwanza, Dida alipatikana na hatia ya kunyemelea na kutoa vitisho dhidi ya mlalamishi. Kwa kosa hili, alihukumiwa miaka miwili jela. Katika shtaka la pili, Dida alipatikana na hatia kwa kosa moja la kunyemelea na kukiuka agizo  ambalo lilimzuia kumkaribia au kuzungumza na mlalamishi. [caption id="attachment_159274" align="alignnone" width="300"] Mohamed Abduba Dida, aliyekuwa mwalimu ambaye aliwahi kuwania urais 2013 na 2017. Dida anatumikia kifungo cha miaka saba katika jela moja Amerika. Picha| Big Muddy Correctional Center, Illinois[/caption] Kwa shtaka hili, Dida alihukumiwa kifungo cha miaka saba jela. Alifungwa gerezani Julai, 2021 lakini hukumu hiyo iliongezwa katika hali isiyoeleweka. Dida anatarajiwa kutoka gerezani Aprili 3, 2029. Ombi ambalo amewasilisha kutaka uhuru wa kutekeleza kanuni za dini yake,  linaonyesha kuwa Big Muddy ni gereza la tatu kumzuilia Dida. Kufungwa jela kwake kunaonyesha tofauti  kubwa kwa mtu ambaye aliendesha kampeni ya  maadili na taifa lisilo na ufisadi katika harakati zake za kuwania urais. Mwezi mmoja kabla ya Uchaguzi Mkuu wa Machi, 2013, Dida alitangazwa kuwa mgombeaji mpya zaidi katika kinyang'anyiro cha kuwania urais, akipeperusha bendera ya Alliance for Real Change, mgombea mwenza wake alikuwa Joshua Odongo. Mjadala wa urais uliotangazwa na vyombo vingi vya habari,  ulimfanya Dida kuwa mtu mashuhuri kwa usiku mmoja kwani majibu yake kwa masuala ya utawala kama vile rushwa yaliwavutia watazamaji wengi. Katika mahojiano na runinga ya Citizen, Dida alisema kuwa kama Daudi, angemrushia jiwe moja na kumwangusha Goliath, ambaye katika muktadha huu walikuwa wagombea wengine wote wa urais, akiwemo Uhuru Kenyatta na Raila Odinga. Katika uchaguzi huo,  Dida alimaliza wa tano kwa kura 54,840. Lakini matokeo yake yalikuwa bora kuliko ya wanasiasa wawili mashuhuri kama aliyekuwa waziri wa Sheria Martha Karua (kura 43,881) na aliyekuwa Mbunge wa Kabete Paul Muite (kura 12,580). Katika kampeni hiyo, Dida aligonga vichwa vya habari tena alipokataa maafisa wawili wa polisi waliotumwa kumhudumia, badala yake alitaka walinda usalama 20. Ombi hilo lilikataliwa. Katika uchaguzi wa 2017, Dida alimaliza wa nne kwa kura 38,004 na bora zaidi ya mbunge wa zamani wa Lugari Cyrus Jirongo. Mnamo Aprili 15, 2024 Dida aliwasilisha ombi dhidi ya Kimberly Hvarre, mlinzi wa gereza la Muddy, kwa madai ya ukiukaji wa haki zake za Uislamu. Jaji Gilbert C Sison,  alisema katika uamuzi wake kwamba haikufahamika iwapo ombi la Dida liliwasilishwa chini ya Marekebisho ya Kwanza ya Katiba ya Amerika au Sheria ya Matumizi ya Kidini na Watu Waliozuiliwa (RLUIPA). Lakini  alikubali kwamba Dida aliibua masuala ya kisheria kwani dini inatambuliwa katika Marekebisho ya Kwanza na RLUIPA. Hivi sasa, Dida ni Imam wa kujitolea katika Big Muddy na anaruhusiwa kusali mara moja kila Ijumaa. “Yeye (Dida) analalamika kwamba hawezi kutimiza vipengele muhimu kuhusu  swala yake, kama vile upande anaopaswa kutazama kuswali, sharti la kuosha nafsi yake kabla ya kuswali, na sharti kwamba baadhi ya sala zinafanyika nyakati za usiku. Anakiri kwamba hivi majuzi alihamishwa kutoka seli aliyozuiliwa peke yake, hatua ambayo inapunguza baadhi ya matatizo yake. Hata hivyo, analalamika kwamba anahitaji kuoga mwili wote kila Ijumaa kabla ya sala, lakini licha ya mikutano mingi kuhusu hili, ameweza kupanga hilo,” inasema sehemu ya stakabadhi za mahakama. Kutokana na mapungufu hayo, Dida alisema alikataa kushiriki Ramadhani mwaka huu. Hakimu Sison alimuonya Dida kuwa kesi hiyo inaweza kuchukua muda na kuwa  ni mchakato mgumu.  

UCHUNGUZI wa kina uliofanywa na wabunge umefichua jinsi gharama ghali ya mahari na mtindo wa wanasiasa kuwapa silaha majambazi ndizo chanzo cha ujangili na ukosefu wa usalama katika kaunti sita za Kaskazini Mashariki. Hali ya usalama katika kaunti za Baringo, Elgeyo Marakwet, Turkana, West Pokot, Samburu na Laikipia, imeathiriwa na shughuli za uhalifu kutokana na ujangili, wizi wa mifugo na mapigano ya kiukoo. Huku idadi kubwa ya wahasiriwa wakiwa wanawake, watoto na wazee, ukosefu wa usalama eneo hilo umesababisha vifo, wanajamii wasio na hatia kufurushwa makwao na misukosuko ya kiuchumi. Uchunguzi wa wabunge uliochukua muda wa miezi tsa kutoka Agosti 2023 hadi Aprili 2024, umeonyesha kuwa ujangili na wizi wa mifugo hutokana na masuala kadhaa. Masuala haya ni pamoja na biashara ya mifugo wa kuibwa, thamani inayotwikwa mifugo, itikadi za kitamaduni, matumizi ya mifugo kama malipo ya mahari eneo hilo ikiwemo haja ya kufidia baada ya kipindi kirefu cha kiangazi. “Kero la ukosefu wa usalama eneo hili linatokana na itikadi zilizopitwa na wakati kama vile uvamizi wa mifugo unaoshinikizwa na malengo ya kibiashara, malipo ghali ya mahari, kujaza pengo baada ya vipindi virefu vya kiangazi na sifa wanazotwikwa vijana mashujaa vitani,” inaeleza ripoti iliyowasilishwa na Kamati inayoongozwa na Mbunge wa Narok Magharibi, Gabriel Tongoyo. Isitoshe, ripoti hiyo inaashiria changamoto wanazopitia wanaume wanaotaka kuoa huku wakihitajika kukusanya mahari inayolipwa kwa kutumia mifugo kabla ya kupatiwa wake. “Wanaume vijana wanaotaka kuoa wanashinikizwa na kulazimika kutumia kila wawezalo kupata mifugo wa kutimiza wajibu huo wa kijamii. Suala hili linavuruga hali ya usalama eneo hilo,” ilisema ripoti. Aidha, kuna “mtindo wa kutatiza” ambapo wizi wa mifugo umegeuzwa kuwa biashara. Mifugo walioibwa sasa wanauzwa kwa mapato ya kifedha badala ya malengo ya kitamaduni ya kuongeza mifugo. Mabadiliko haya kutoka sababu za kitamaduni hadi faida ya kifedha yamechochea athari hasi za visa hivi na madhara yake kwa jamii.

NI mara ya sita mwaka huu kampuni ya dhahabu ya Amlight  Resources iliyoko Siaya imevamiwa na majambazi na kupoteza mali ya mamilioni ya pesa. Na sasa, ndani ya majuma mawili yaliyopita, kampuni hiyo ya kuchimba madini kaunti ndogo ya Rarieda, imevamiwa mara mbili. Sawa na matukio hayo mengine ya awali, shirika hilo limeendelea kupoteza mali ya mamilioni ya pesa. Hivi punde Katika tukio la hivi punde zaidi kijijini Ramba, Kata ya Asembo Central, usiku wa kuamkia Jumatatu, wezi hao walimfunga askari kwa kamba saa saba usiku kabla ya kusababisha uharibifu na wizi. Waliteketeza tingatinga mbili. Wakili Danstan Omari alilalama kuwa hili ni tukio la sita kufanyika mwaka huu na hakuna hatua imechukuliwa na vyombo vya usalama. Bw Omari alizidi kuteta kuwa hata kesi walizowasilisha kortini zimekwama na kuganda. Wakili huyu, ambaye alisema maisha yake yako hatarini, alisema amekuwa akifuatwa na watu  kwa nia ya kumtisha asiwakilishe kampuni hiyo katika shoroba za mahakama. "Polisi na idara ya mahakama inaonekana kama imekula njama ili kuvuruga mchakato wa kutekeleza haki," alilalamika wakili Omari akiongeza kwamba watataka kesi zote zinazosubiri kuwasilishwa mahakamani - zinazohusu Amlight Resources - zihamishwe nje ya kaunti ya Siaya ambako, alidai, mifumo ya mahakama imeingiliwa. Alisema kuwa wanafikiria kushtaki polisi kwa kukataa kulinda mali ya kampuni hiyo licha ya maombi kadhaa yakitolewa. Mkurugenzi wa kampuni ya Amlight Resources; Amos Mabonga aliunga mkono kauli ya wakili wake akilaumu mahakama na polisi kwa masaibu yanayoathiri kampuni yake. Bw Mabonga alisema washindani wake wamewatuma majambazi ambao wamekuwa wakimfuata, na kuongeza kuwa ameweza tu kuishi kwa neema ya Mungu. Wiki mbili zilizopita majambazi waliokuwa na silaha walivamia kampuni hiyo na kuondoka na vifaa vya thamani ya mamilioni ya pesa baada ya kuvunja ukuta na kuvunja afisi na karakana.

MBUNGE wa Makadara George Aladwa amemtaka Gavana wa Nairobi Johnson Sakaja kushughulikia matatizo ya wakazi wa jiji la Nairobi. Haya yanajiri huku madai yakizuka baadhi ya madiwani wanapanga njama ya kuwasilisha hoja ya kumtia afisini. Bw Aladwa mnamo Jumatatu alisema kuwa Bw Sakaja hafai kuwapuuza madiwani ambao wamekuwa wakifuatilia utendakazi wake na hadi sasa hawajaridhishwa na rekodi yake tangu achaguliwe. Wakati ambapo kuna gumzo kuwa huenda Bw Sakaja akatimuliwa, mwenyewe amejitokeza na kusema hatahangaishwa na watu wachache ambao hawafurahii kazi yake. “Apange nyumba yake kwa sababu kile tunataka kuona ni maendeleo na si hadithi au ahadi zisizotimizwa. Kaunti ya Nairobi na kubwa na tunataka maendeleo,” akasema Bw Aladwa. Ili kujikinga Bw Sakaja amekuwa akiwavutia madiwani wa ODM ambao ndio wengi upande wake na wikendi hata alionekana nyumbani kwa Kinara wa Azimio Raila Odinga kule Bondo, Kaunti ya Siaya. Kuonekana kwake na Raila kulifasiriwa kuwa juhudi za kumrai Bw Odinga atulize joto la kisiasa linalomkabili katika kaunti. Bw Aladwa alisema kuwa anafahamu kuwa  gavana alikutana na madiwani wa ODM mnamo Jumatatu ila kitakachomwokoa ni utendakazi wake kwa sababu raia ndio wana usemi wa mwisho. “Sina habari kuhusu mkutano huo ila nimesikia analenga kutuliza madiwani ambao wanaonekana wamemchoka na wanataka kumtimua,” akasema Bw Aladwa ambaye ni mwenyekiti wa ODM Kaunti ya Nairobi. Wiki jana, Bw Sakaja pia alikutana na madiwani wa Kenya Kwanza ambapo inadaiwa aliwaomba washirikiane kuyatatua baadhi ya matatizo yanayowakabili wakazi jijini. Bunge la Kaunti ya Nairobi vimerejelea vikao vyake Jumanne baada ya mapumziko ya kipindi kifupi. Baadhi ya madiwani ambao ni wandani wa Bw Sakaja wameonya kuwa hawatakubali hoja yoyote ya kumtimua Gavana iwasilishwe
