Diwani asema Sakaja hafai kupewa 'tutam' sababu ameshindwa kuwahudumia wakazi ipasavyo
DIWANI wa Wadi ya Nairobi South, Waithera Chege, amesema rekodi ya maendeleo ya Gavana wa Nairobi Johnson Sakaja haimruhusu kuwania muhula wa pili 2027. Akizungumza katika mkutano wa kisiasa eneo la South B, Bi Chege alidai kuwa uongozi wa Gavana Sakaja umeshindwa kutekeleza ahadi alizotoa wakati wa kampeni za uchaguzi wa 2022. Alisema baadhi ya maeneo ya Nairobi hayajanufaika kikamilifu na miradi ya maendeleo, akidai kuwa hali hiyo imeathiri zaidi wadi zinazowakilishwa na madiwani wanaokosoa utawala wa Gavana Sakaja. "Uongozi wa Sakaja umeshindwa kutumikia wananchi. Nairobi imekosa baadhi ya huduma muhimu za ugatuzi, hali ambayo imelazimu Serikali ya Kitaifa kuingilia kati na kutekeleza miradi ambayo inapaswa kufanywa na Serikali ya Kaunti," alisema Bi Chege. Alitoa wito kwa chama cha UDA kutafuta mgombea mwingine wa ugavana wa Nairobi iwapo kinataka kuhifadhi kiti hicho katika uchaguzi mkuu wa 2027. Katika mkutano huo, Katibu Mkuu wa Wizara ya Nishati, Alex Wachira, pia aliwataka wakazi kumuunga mkono Rais William Ruto kwa muhula wa pili. Bw Wachira alisema Rais anafaa kupewa nafasi ya kukamilisha miradi aliyoanzisha katika muhula wake wa kwanza. Alitaja marais wa zamani Mwai Kibaki na Uhuru Kenyatta, ambao walihudumu kwa mihula miwili, akisema Rais Ruto pia anapaswa kupewa nafasi kama hiyo.

Pombe haramu yaua watatu Kitengela, wawili mahututi
Huzuni imetanda katika kijiji cha Noonkpoir, Kitengela, Kaunti ya Kajiado, baada ya watu watatu kufariki dunia na wengine wawili kulazwa hospitali wakiwa mahututi kutokana na kile kinachoshukiwa kuwa pombe haramu. Mnamo Ijumaa asubuhi, Christine na jamaa zake waliomboleza kifo cha mumewe, James Maina Nguru, aliyefariki Jumatatu usiku baada ya kunywa pombe hiyo. Kwa mujibu wa wakazi, waathiriwa hao walikunywa pombe hiyo katika eneo la Migingo jioni ya Jumatatu kabla ya kufariki nyakati tofauti karibu na makazi yao. Migingo, eneo lililoko Kitengela, limekuwa likihusishwa kwa miaka kadhaa na biashara ya pombe haramu, dawa za kulevya na uhalifu. Bi Mukeira alisema mumewe, aliyekuwa fundi na baba wa watoto watatu, alirejea nyumbani akiwa katika hali mbaya baada ya kutoka kwenye baa maarufu eneo hilo. "Alikuwa akilalamika maumivu makali ya tumbo na hakuweza kusimama vizuri. Muda mfupi baadaye alianza kutapika damu na akafariki mbele yetu," alisema kwa huzuni. Sasa mjane huyo anasema amelazimika kulea watoto wao peke yake. Familia hiyo imeamua kutofanya uchunguzi wa maiti kutokana na hali ngumu ya kifedha na imani kuwa pombe ndiyo iliyosababisha kifo chake. Mama yake Nguru, Mary Muthoni, ameitaka serikali kuchukua hatua kali dhidi ya wafanyabiashara wanaosambaza pombe hatari. Alisema mara nyingi alimuonya mwanawe kuhusu madhara ya pombe lakini hakumsikiliza. Katika eneo hilo hilo, Lynette Sirengo pia anaomboleza kifo cha mumewe, Godfrey Simiyu Kiliswa, aliyefariki baada ya kupatikana akiwa hajitambui karibu na baa inayojulikana kama "Kwa Omosh". Alifariki siku iliyofuata nyumbani kwake. Mwanaume mwingine, Elisha Okello, naye alifariki baada ya kurejea nyumbani akiwa amelewa. Mwili wake ulipelekwa katika mochari ya Hospitali ya Kitengela. Wakati huo huo, ndugu wa mmoja wa manusura amesema mgonjwa amelazwa katika hospitali moja jijini Nairobi akiwa katika hali mahututi, huku viungo vya ndani vikidaiwa kuathiriwa vibaya. Wakazi wamewalaumu maafisa wa usalama kwa kushindwa kudhibiti uuzaji wa pombe haramu, madai ambayo polisi wamekanusha wakisema wameimarisha msako dhidi ya wauzaji wa vileo haramu na dawa za kulevya. Serikali pia imeagiza operesheni kali kote nchini kukabiliana na biashara hiyo inayozidi kuhatarisha maisha ya wananchi

Ushindi kwa serikali Mahakama ya Rufaa ikiunga ushuru wa nyumba
Mpango wa Rais William Ruto wa nyumba za bei nafuu umepata nguvu kubwa baada ya Mahakama ya Rufaa kuidhinisha sheria ya makazi nafuu na ushuru wa nyumba, huku ikitupilia mbali kesi 42 zilizopinga sheria hiyo. Katika uamuzi wake, jopo la majaji watano lilisema Sheria ya Makazi Nafuu ilitungwa ili kutekeleza haki ya kila Mkenya kupata makazi bora na ya kutosha kama ilivyo katika Katiba. Mahakama ilikataa hoja za waliowasilisha kesi wakitaka sheria hiyo itangazwe kuwa batili na serikali iamriwe kurejesha mabilioni ya pesa ilizokusanywa kupitia ushuru huo kutoka kwa waajiri na wafanyakazi. Kwa mujibu wa sheria hiyo, mwajiri na mfanyakazi huchangia kila mmoja asilimia 1.5 ya mshahara wa mfanyakazi kila mwezi kwa Hazina ya Makazi Nafuu. Waliopinga sheria hiyo, akiwemo daktari wa upasuaji kutoka Nakuru, Magare Gikenyi, walidai ushuru huo unawalazimisha Wakenya kugharamia nyumba ambazo huenda wasinufaike nazo kamwe. Pia walidai kuwa jukumu la makazi ni la serikali za kaunti na kwamba serikali kuu ilikiuka Katiba kwa kulitwaa. Hata hivyo, Mahakama ya Rufaa ilisema makazi ni jukumu kati ya serikali ya kitaifa na zile za kaunti, hivyo sheria hiyo haikiuki mfumo wa ugatuzi. Majaji waliongeza kuwa ushuru huo hauwezi kutajwa kama ubaguzi au unyakuzi haramu wa mali kwa kuwa serikali ina mamlaka ya kuweka kodi ili kutekeleza majukumu yake ya kikatiba. Hata hivyo, mahakama ilionya kuwa mpango huo unapaswa kuhakikisha pia unawanufaisha Wakenya maskini zaidi na usitumike kuwanufaisha washirika wa kisiasa au watu wenye ushawishi pekee. Uamuzi huo unaimarisha moja ya miradi mikuu ya Rais Ruto inayolenga kuongeza upatikanaji wa nyumba nafuu nchini.

Amisi ampigia debe Matiang'i, asema kiti cha chini anachoweza kupata ni unaibu wa rais
MBUNGE wa Saboti, Caleb Amisi, amesema kiti cha chini kabisa ambacho kiongozi wa Jubilee, Dkt Fred Matiang'i, anaweza kukubali katika muungano wa upinzani kuelekea uchaguzi mkuu wa 2027 ni Unaibu Rais, kama si tiketi ya kuwania urais yenyewe. Amisi alisema hayo alipozuru kaunti ya Kisii mnamo Alhamisi, Septemba 24, kuwa ni kudhalilisha kumzungumzia Matiang'i kwa vyeo vya chini kama Uwaziri, akisema aliyekuwa Waziri huyo wa Mambo ya Ndani ameshavuka kiwango hicho. "Mtu kama Fred Matiang'i, kiti cha chini kabisa anachoweza kupewa ni Unaibu wa Rais. Kama si hivyo, basi apewe tiketi ya Urais. Hatuwezi kumzungumzia tena kama mtu wa kupewa Wizara. Amepita hapo," Amisi alisema. Mbunge huyo alikuwa Kisii kukipigia debe chama chake kipya cha People's Renaissance Movement (PRM) na kujenga uungwaji mkono wa Dkt Matiang'i katika eneo la Gusii. Kwenye ziara yake, Amisi alikutana na makundi ya vijana na kina mama katika mikutano ya hoteli na ya barabarani maeneo ya Keumbu na Kisii Mjini, ambako alielezea dira ya chama chake na msimamo wake kuhusu mustakabala wa upinzani. Alisema upinzani unapojipanga kumkabili Rais William Ruto, lazima uonyeshe heshima kwa viongozi wenye uzito wa kitaifa kama Dkt Matiang'i. "Kuna tabia ndani ya upinzani ya kutaka kumpunguza Matiang'i hadi nafasi ya uwaziri. Hiyo ni dharau kubwa. Mtu aliyesimamia wizara kubwa kama Mambo ya Ndani na Elimu, akaonyesha uwezo wa kipekee, si mtu wa kupewa tena nafasi ya waziri. Ameshavuka hapo," alisema Amisi. Aliongeza kuwa Matiang'i ndiye kiongozi anayefaa zaidi kuongoza muungano wa upinzani kutokana na uzoefu wake serikalini na mtindo wake wa uongozi unaoaminika. "Ukizungumzia viongozi ambao wamewahi kuendesha serikali kwa msimamo na nidhamu, Matiang'i yuko juu. Ndiyo maana tunasema kama hatutampatia urais, basi angalau tumpatie unaibu. Chini ya hapo ni kumkosea heshima jamii nzima ya Gusii na Wakenya wanaomuamini," alisisitiza. Amisi alisema chama chake cha PRM kimejipanga kuzunguka maeneo mbalimbali nchini kuimarisha umoja wa vijana na kina mama ambao ndio wamekuwa wakisahaulika licha ya kuwa na kura nyingi. Alisema jamii ya Gusii imekuwa na mchango mkubwa katika siasa za taifa lakini imekuwa ikipata nafasi ndogo katika uongozi wa juu, na wakati huu inastahili kupata nafasi kubwa kupitia Matiang'i. "Gusii imekuwa na kura, imekuwa na viongozi wazuri, lakini haijawahi kupata nafasi ya juu. Wakati huu msikubali makombo. Lazima muwe mezani, na njia ya kuwa mezani ni kumpa Matiang'i tiketi ya juu," alisema. Kauli ya Amisi inakuja wakati viongozi wa upinzani wakiendelea na mazungumzo ya kuunda umoja mpana wa kumkabili Rais Ruto, huku mgawanyo wa nafasi ukiwa kitovu cha mvutano.
