Budget crisis puts national ID project in limbo danger
By: Louis Kolumbia-The Citizen Correspondent
Dar es Salaam.
A looming budget crisis threatens to derail the national identification project that is vital for the socio-economic growth of the country.

Identity cards would enable banks to trace loan defaulters and will also help the Police fight crime more easily as well as boost national security.
Reports say because of inadequate resources, the National Identification Authority (NIDA) would not be able to meet some or all of its deadlines because of lack of working tools and a shortage of staff.

The issuing of IDs started early this year with civil servants and members of security forces.
The current inadequacy is due to insufficient budgetary allocations as well as the decision by the government to reduce the time it would take to complete the exercise countrywide from three years to one and a half years.

 NIDA principal information officer Rose Mdami, said the Authority’s officials have initiated negotiations with the government and other stakeholders on how the looming crisis would be avoided.
She could not say how much more NIDA wanted from the government to be able to complete the exercise only noting that the Authority would issue a statement to the media when the negotiations were concluded.
According to Ms Mdami, NIDA has experienced new demands that require more investment in the areas of technology, human resource development and smooth running of administrative matters after the project duration was compressed to meet other stakeholders’ demand.
Earlier, the project was planned to be implemented in a period of three years, but demands from project stakeholders required it be completed within a year and half.
Stakeholders working in collaboration with NIDA, whose responsibilities solely depended on the completion of the project, included the Tanzania Communications Regulatory Authority (TCRA) that was charged with implementing the post code project and the National Electoral Commission (NEC) that undertook development of the voter’s registration book.

Thousands of protesters clash with police in Chicago: Chaos in the Windy City as 45 activists arrested and one cop stabbed after demonstrators target NATO

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER Thousands of demonstrators upset with the war in Afghanistan, climate change and the erosion of union rights have raised the intensity of a march in downtown Chicago on Sunday as world leaders assembled for a NATO summit. The protest, one of the city's largest in years, turned violent at the end of an anti-NATO march, where demonstrators confronted Chicago police, pushing against a line of officers several blocks from the lakefront convention center where President Obama hosted a gathering of world leaders. Authorities were seen making arrests one by one and leading individual demonstrators away in handcuffs. After a clash near McCormick Place, Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy said at a news conference that the protests resulted in 45 people being arrested and four officers suffering injuries - one from a stab wound in the leg.

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.
