PRESS RELEASE
Dar es Salaam, 2nd May, 2012: Chemi & Cotex industries Ltd, the makers of Whitedent toothpaste and other Oral care products are happy to announce the launch of the Whitedent school squiz 2012.
The last whitedent school squiz was held on 2008. We have restarted this exercise after a gap of three years.The first edition of the school squiz held in 2007 was open to all the primary schools in the Dar es salaam region. The school squiz this year will be held across the maintowns in Tanzania namely Arusha, Mbeya, Mwanza and Mbeya with the paticipation of primary schools. A total of 4,000 questions are being prepared for the complete quiz. A team of professional teachers are assigned the duty of preparing these questions for varying subjects based on the primary school educational syllabus.
The detailed format of the Quiz was presented to the Ministry of Education and after due approval from them, a total of 240 schools were invited based on the school’s performance in last year’s Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE); requesting them to nominate a team of 4 members to participate in the Quiz.
A total of 162 schools confirmed their participation and sent their teams. The competition involves standard 6 students of the average age of 12 to 13, including the fact that they had to mix both genders, so that at the challenge both were present.
The first stage was a knock-out system taking place in each of the four regions. For each region one of the invited schools was allocated as the regional centre where the preliminary knock-out round for that region took place. It was a one day event in which five schools competed at a time, being asked to questions based on various subjects including Languages, Mathematics, Science and Social studies. The entire process was open and transparent with all participating schools briefed about the process well in advance.
Six (6) winning schools from each region will now advance to the Quarter Finals which will be based in Dar es Salaam. In the quarter final stage, the 24 Schools are divided into 6 groups of 4 schools each. The grouping was done on the basis of marks secured in the first stage. The winners of each group, i.e. a total of 6 teams will proceed to the semi finals.
The 6 semi-finalists are divided into two groups of three teams each. The winner of each group, i.e. two teams proceed to the Grand final, where an overall winner will emerge. The 9 quiz sessions comprising of 6 quarter finals, 2 semi-final an the Grand Final will be shot live and will be shown on television for the viewing public.
In order to interact with higher no of schools we are also bringing a SMS campaign by which Presenter asks a special question( for schools only) during the school quiz programme on TV and which will be again mentioned in radio and advise people how to answer through SMS. The campaign will be advertised in the TV edition asking people to listen to the Radio show and help their schools of choice win prizes of water storage poly tanks (3000 ltrs). People text in answers for a chance to win weekly prize.
The system will select 3 weekly winners. For every individual winner, there is a school that will win a prize (the winner gets to choose a school of their choice) this contest will go on for 9 weeks coinciding with the TV and radio release.
Since 2003 Chemi & Cotex industries Ltd have conducted education programmes on Oral Hygiene in over 1000 schools in Tanzania. Free dental check ups,sampling in schools are some off the activities being regularly undertaken by the company to educate and create awareness on Oralcare . The whitedent school squiz programme is a further extension of these efforts.
The added highlight of the programme is apart from it being telecast in the ITV in nine episodes, we will also be airing it in Radio One to reach more segments of the people.Inatoka kwa mdau.

MBINU ZA KUMFIKISHA MWANAMKE MWENYE MAKALIO MAKUBWA KILELENI KWA HARAKA

Kwa kawaida wanawake wanafikia kilele (mwisho wa utamu wa ngono) kati ya dakika ishirini na saa moja, yaani kwa kifupi inawachukua muda mrefu sana hali inayopelekea mpenzi mvivu kuchoka na ufanyaji wake utakuwa wa “ovyo” hali itakayo kufanya wewe kuishiwa na hamu ya kuendelea. Pamoja na kuchelewa huko ambako kunatokana na utofauti wetu kati ya mwanaume na mwanamke lakini nakumbuka hapo nyuma nilikutana na wanawake 2 waliokuwa ndani ya ndoa na wamezaa lakini hawajawahi kabisa kujua utamu wa tendo hilo alimaharufu kama “kufanya mapenzi”. Natambua kuwa ni ngumu au niseme si wanawake wote ambao wamejaaliwa kimaumbile kwamba wanafanikiwa kufika kileleni zaidi ya mara mbili kila wanapofanya mapenzi/ngono (kumbuka ni kati ya dakika 15 na saa moja hivyo Jibaba hapa awe na uwezo wa kujizuia kwa zaidi ya dk 45) na ikiwa jamaa ni “mzamiaji” basi unaweza ukaondoka na goli 3 ktk mzunguuko mmoja. Lakini kwa nini basi baadhi yao tu ndio wafike kileleni na wengine was...

Mushikiwabo to UN: Enhance civilian protection

By Eugene Kwibuka Rwanda’s Minister of Foreign Affairs and Cooperation has urged the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) to invest more energy in the prevention of conflicts for better protection of civilians living in conflict-torn areas. Rwanda’s Foreign minister, Louise Mushikiwabo Louise Mushikiwabo made the call during an open debate on the protection of civilians in armed conflict which the UNSC held in New York on Tuesday. “Rwanda’s core message today is that enhancing the protection of civilians in armed conflict requires action before a conflict starts. The proliferation of non-state armed groups makes civilian protection both more urgent, and harder to achieve,” she said. For better protection of civilians in armed-conflict areas, the minister emphasised the need to increase investments in professionalising the military and police forces through adequate training. “Only when the leadership of armed forces shares the international...
