Wakili maarufu nchini akamatwa akituhumiwa kukutwa na fedha

Thomas Mashalla, Arusha
WAKILI maarufu jijini Arusha, anadaiwa kushikiliwa na polisi kwa tuhuma za kukutwa na kiasi kikubwa cha fedha kwenye akiba yake binafsi, zinazodaiwa kuingia kwa njia isiyo halali.

Wakili huyo aliyejijengea umaarufu nchini kutokana na uendeshaji kesi zake, anadaiwa kukamatwa Agosti 2, mwaka huu wakati akiendesha gari lake la kifahari aina ya Escalade, Polisi wa Kimataifa Interpol walishikilia kabla ya kumfikisha Kituo Kikuu cha Polisi.

Taarifa zilipatikana zinadai ya kuwa, kushikiliwa kwa wakili huyo kunafuatia polisi nchini kufuatilia nyendo zake kwa kipindi kirefu kuhusiana na shughuli zake, huku wakihofia kiasi kikubwa cha fedha kilichokutwa kwenye akaunti yake binafsi kwenye benki moja nchini.Pia, taarifa hizo zinadai wakili huyo alikamatwa majira ya usiku na kwamba, kabla ya Interpol kumfikisha Kituo Kikuu cha Polisi walifanya upekuzi kwenye nyumba yake iliyopo mkoani Arusha.
Vyanzo vya habari vinadai kuwa, baada ya polisi hao kufanya upekuzi wa kina sehemu hizo mbili walimfikisha Kituo Kikuu cha Polisi ili kuruhusu hatua nyingine kufuata.Taarifa zinadai kuwa, wakati anakamatwa ndani ya gari alikutwa na zaidi ya Sh20 milioni na kwamba, baada ya kumhoji juu ya kiasi hicho cha fedha, inadaiwa aliwajibu hizo zilikuwa kwa ajili ya matumizi yake madogo.

“Walimkamata akiwa anaendesha gari lake hapa mjini, lakini ndani ya gari walikuta Sh20 milioni, walipomuuliza aliwajibu kuwa hizo ni kwa ajili ya matumizi yake madogo madogo,” kilisema chanzo cha habari. Inadaiwa chanzo cha polisi kufuatilia nyendo zake, inatokana na akiba ya wakili huyo kukutwa na kiasi cha zaidi ya Sh30 bilioni zinazodaiwa kuingizwa njia zisizo halali.

Pia, inadaiwa polisi walikuwa na mashaka na gari analotumia kuingizwa nchini kinyemela.Kamanda wa Polisi Mkoa wa Arusha, Thobias Andengenye, alipoulizwa kuhusu taarifa hizo, hakukiri wala kukataa zaidi ya alisema suala hilo liko ngazi za juu, hawezi kuzungumzia.

“Kwa kweli hilo suala liko juu ya ngazi yangu, siwezi kulizungumzia chochote kwa sasa hadi nipate idhini kutoka kwa wakubwa wangu,” alisema Andengenye.

Andengenye alisema anasubiri taarifa kutoka Makao Makuu ya Polisi Dar es Salaam na akipata kibali atalitolea ufafanuzi.Mwenyekiti wa Chama cha Wanasheria wa Tanganyika (TLS) tawi la Arusha, Duncan Ooola, alikiri kukamatwa kwa wakili huyo na kwamba, walipofuatilia waliambiwa anachunguzwa na polisi.

“Ni kweli wamemkamata (jina tunalo) Jumanne, lakini sijui saa ngapi, tulikwenda polisi kujua chanzo walitwambia anachunguzwa, hiyo ndiyo taarifa ninayoweza kukupa,” alisema Ooola.

Now it gets nasty between Nasri and Arsenal

Samir Nasri last night moved a step closer to the exit door at Arsenal following an apparent row with Arsene Wenger.

The winger was left brooding at home on Friday as the club travelled to Portugal for a weekend friendly against Benfica.

Skipper Cesc Fabregas was also a dramatic omission from the 19-man squad as he continues to force his move to Barcelona.

The Spain star is not understood to be injured, but Wenger claimed that he had not joined his team-mates because he was not fit to play.

Manchester City are waiting to swoop with a £22million bid for Nasri after a clash between him and Wenger on the club’s flight back from a pre-season tour of Asia last week.

Relations between the pair, as a result, are said to be at an all-time low.

And with City ready to make a move, Nasri’s time at Arsenal could finally be coming to an end before the transfer window closes.

The French winger will only be allowed to leave, however, once Wenger ties up a deal for Valencia midfielder Juan Mata.

On Fabregas, Wenger said: “Cesc been out so he’s unable to play. I’ll not speak any more on the subject. There is nothing new to add.”

'Boring' City will attack more this season - Mancini.

Roberto Mancini has admitted Manchester City must play with more flair and adventure if they are to win the title.

City's pragmatic approach last season - playing for draws against the Premier League's big clubs while trying to beat the so-called lesser sides - ultimately saw them achieve their objective, as they finished third to guarantee Champions League football.

But Mancini knows City, who finished nine points behind United last season, must play with less caution and score more goals if they are to turn their ambition and potential into the hard currency of a first Premier League crown.

City scored 60 Premier League goals last season, 18 fewer than champions United, and Mancini said: "We need to score 10 or 15 goals more than last season.

Shugamami Wema Isaac Sepetu (pichani) anajuta kuwa na ushosti na waigizaji Jacqueline Steven Pentzel ‘Jack wa Chuz’ na Rose Donatus Ndauka akidai kuwa eti, kwa sasa wanampotezea.

Akihojiwa na kituo kimoja cha redio jijini Dar juzi kuhusu kuvunjika kwa kundi lao la JAROWE ambalo lilikuwa limekamilisha filamu moja iliyokwenda kwa jina la The Diary, Wema alisema amekuwa akitaka kujua juu ya kazi yao hiyo lakini kila akiwatafuta Jack na Rose, amekuwa akikata tamaa kufaidi matunda ya kazi yao hiyo.

“Nikimpigia simu Jack ananiuliza wewe nani wakati anajua namba na sauti yangu. Kusema kweli najuta kuwafahamu Jack na Rose na nahisi wanataka kunipiga changa la macho,” alisema Wema.

Risasi Jumamosi lilimtafuta Rose lakini hakupatikana na alipopatikana Jack wa Chuz ili kupata undani wa kile Wema anacholalamikia kuwa yeye na Rose wameamua kumpotezea na kuhisi kwamba wanataka kumpiga changa la macho, alifunguka: “Sitaki kusikia jina la Wema masikioni mwangu, naomba mniulize ishu nyingine lakini isiwe inamhusu Wema kwa sababu tumemchoka.”

KOCHA wa Taifa Stars, Jan Poulsen hatamwita kiungo mshambuliaji wa Simba, Haruna Moshi ‘Boban’ hadi atakapojirekebisha kutokana na kile alichoeleza kuonyesha utovu wa nidhamu.

Poulsen amesema hayo kufuatia Boban kutojiunga katika kikosi cha vijana chini ya miaka 23, Manyara Stars, kilichocheza mechi ya kirafiki mkoani Arusha hivi karibuni dhidi ya Shelisheli, ili kuona uwezo wake kabla ya kumjumuisha kwenye kikosi cha timu ya Taifa, Taifa Stars.

“Boban alionyesha utovu wa nidhamu na akashindwa kwenda na kikosi bila kutoa taarifa zozote, kwa maana hiyo ninaweza kumuita ikiwa ataomba radhi kwa alichokifanya, kwani licha ya kuwa na kiwango kizuri lakini siwezi kuwa na mchezaji ambaye hana nidhamu,” alisema Poulsen.

Kutokana na kushindwa kujiunga katika kikosi cha Manyara Stars, Boban alielekea Zanzibar ambapo klabu yake ya Simba ilikuwa imekweka kambi, ikijiandaa na msimu mpya wa ligi.

Mgosi: Motema Pembe zaidi ya Simba


Na Khadija Mngwai
MSHAMBULIAJI Mussa Mgosi (pichani) amesema klabu yake mpya DC Motema Pembe ya DR Congo ni zaidi ya Simba kutokana na programu za timu hiyo pamoja na mfumo wa uendeshaji wa klabu kutokuwa na wanachama na badala yake kuwa na wapenzi tu.

Akizungumza na Championi Ijumaa, Mgosi alisema Motema Pembe haina wanachama kama ilivyo Simba, hivyo kufanya uamuzi kutolewa na Rais wa klabu, Mussa Nganya, jambo linalofanikisha kutokuwepo kwa mikwaruzano ya hapa na pale.

“Motema Pembe ina utofauti mkubwa na klabu ya Simba kutokana na kutokuwa na wanachama kama ilivyo kwetu, timu ina wapenzi tu na uamuzi wote unatolewa na Rais Mussa Nganya na hakuna mizengwe yoyote, hivyo kufanya kila kitu kiende sawa.

“Mfumo wa soka la Congo ni mzuri kutokana na programu wanazotumia katika ligi kuchangia wachezaji wawe na viwango bora kulinganisha na kwetu. Nimefurahishwa na mfumo wa wachezaji wa Congo kwani wote malengo yao kwenda nje tu na siyo kuishia hapa, hii inanipa changamoto ya kusonga mbele zaidi ya kujituma,” alisema Mgosi.

Pia, aliwataka wachezaji waliocheza muda mrefu Simba na Yanga kuangalia uwezekano wa kuachana na timu hizo kwa kuwa yatawafika kama yaliyomtokea yeye. Mgosi alitemwa katika usajili uliofungwa hivi karibuni kwa kile kilichoelezwa kuwa kiwango chake kimeshuka.

Eto'o/Tevez swap edges closer after Inter star's row with new coach.

Manchester City have been alerted by a row between Inter Milan star Samuel Eto’o and the Italian giants' new coach.

Roberto Mancini is keen on swapping Carlos Tevez for Cameroon striker Eto'o, who scored 37 goals for Inter last season.

The Serie A side stated Eto’o was not for sale as they turned down a huge recent offer from Russian club Anzhi Makhachkala.

But now a training ground bust-up between the former Barcelona star and coach Gian Piero Gasperini in the build-up to the weekend's Italian Super Cup match has thrown the 30-year-old’s future into doubt.

Let's sort it, Cesc! Kroenke jets in to thrash out Fabregas future after Barca bid £35m.

Personal intervention: Arsenal's majority shareholder Stan Kroenke.

I'll sit this one out: Cesc Fabregas at Arsenal's Emirates training session.

In the stands: Fabregas has missed all Arsenal's pre-season games this summer.

Arsenal majority shareholder Stan Kroenke was in London on Thursday night in an attempt to finally sort out the Cesc Fabregas transfer saga.

Kroenke was in the capital to attend the club's annual members day at the Emirates. But more importantly the American tycoon hopes his trip to England will resolve the long-running uncertainty over Fabregas' protracted switch to Barcelona.

Kroenke led high-level talks, which also included chief executive Ivan Gazidis. They discussed Barca's latest offer of £35million - though £5million of that fee would be made up of add-ons and incentive based payments.

The explicit art that shows bestiality with a goat just yards from The Ritz.

Shocking: The Lenkiewicz painting has upset guests at the neighbouring Ritz.

On public view: The painting was displayed at the Clarendon Fine Art Gallery.

An exclusive art gallery has been criticised for displaying a highly offensive painting just yards from The Ritz hotel and where it could be seen by children.

Hotel guests were said to have been disgusted after seeing the image by the late British artist Robert Lenkiewicz – which depicts bestiality with a goat.

It was displayed on a revolving plinth in the front window of the Clarendon Fine Art gallery, around the corner from the five-star hotel in Piccadilly.

The picture – which is owned by a private collector and is expected to sell for around £30,000 – was still on display yesterday, although last night the gallery said it had been removed.

Shocked onlookers condemned the decision to put the image on public view to publicise its Lenkiewicz exhibition.

Passer-by Juliet Brown, 48, said: ‘Putting something like this on display is clearly just a cynical ploy to attract attention. There are plenty of other less offensive paintings from the exhibition which they could have used. Children are seeing this.’

One child had to be quickly pulled away by his mother as he stood and stared.

Plymouth-based Lenkiewicz regularly courted controversy during his career as a result of his sexualised paintings. He died at the age of 60 in 2002.

One gallery worker said: ‘It’s interesting watching peoples’ reactions as they walk past. Many can’t believe what they have just seen. He is still creating controversy, even in death.’

The goat picture, painted in 1983, appears to have classical roots and the pose bears a close resemblance to a statue of the mythological satyr Pan with a goat, which was found in Pompeii.
Art experts suggest Lenkiewicz was making some kind of statement about his home town with the work. The goat is said to be a reference to Plymouth’s Devonport dockyard, which had the animal as a mascot.

It was also apparently a pun on the artist’s star sign of Capricorn, the goat.
Last night, the gallery’s owners apologised for displaying the painting, adding: ‘We now realise that this particular painting has caused concern and it has been withdrawn from public viewing. We apologise for any offence caused.’

Little did I know these reports are not old, but new. Waka Flocka needs to get himself a hype man aka a weed carrier at this point. Anyway, they pinched Waka out there in Atlanta during a "routine" traffic stop. I don't believe in those, by the way. The cops knew it was a high probability that Mr. Flames would be on something. Anyway, the popo found weed on him after smelling it. Dude got off easy with possession of less than 1 ounce of weed and failure to wear a seat belt charges. He never went to jail for it...he just walked.

The tough life of a millionaire footballer: Ashley Cole 'hires SAS guard to keep girls at bay'

Protection: Ashley Cole apparently hired a guard to help him avoid encounters with overzealous WAG wannabes.

He earns millions every year as a Premiership footballer and has the kind of lifestyle that many would envy.

But poor Ashley Cole has it so tough he's allegedly hired an SAS guard to keep overzealous female admirers at a distance.

The Chelsea star, 30, is said to be paying a minder £1,000 a day to protect him from 'himself'.

According to a story in the Daily Star the move is part of his bid to win back estranged wife Cheryl Cole and to try and restore his tainted public image. A friend apparently claimed: 'One of the main reasons he has a new minder is because he knows he needs protection from predatory girls – and to be saved from himself.

'He knows that if he’s let loose on fans on his own he might repeat his same old mistakes. 'And he doesn’t want to be exposed in kiss-and-tells that will mess things up for good with Cheryl. He thinks it’s a good investment if it keeps him on the straight and narrow.'

It's claimed Cole first hired a minder in June when he was on holiday in LA with fellow football stars Shaun Wright-Phillips, 29, of Manchester City and Bolton Wanderers star Zat Knight, 31.

Wright-Phillips and Knight also hired minders to keep them in check during their lads' holiday.

But, although Ashley had the help of a minder while in Los Angeles, he still fell back into his old ways and was linked to three girls.

Colette McBarron, 26, US model Jessyca Rayanne, 28, and air hostess Kerry Meades, 29 all came out of the woodwork soon after Ashley had returned to the UK to make various claims about encounters with him. Former beauty Queen McBarron told the Mail on Sunday how he blamed tying the knot with Cheryl in 2006 for his philandering ways.

She claims he told her: 'Things change when you get married. 'You go from being someone’s boyfriend to being their husband, it changes quite a lot of things.
'When you’re someone’s boyfriend, you don’t feel so much responsibility towards that person.

'Once you’re a husband you can’t act in a way that you would have done if you were a boyfriend.'

When she probed him as to why he couldn't stay faithful, she said: 'I asked him, "Why did you do it?", meaning why did you cheat on Cheryl. He didn’t really answer. He sighed.'

Cantona exclusive: United should buy Sneijder - he's the new me.

As reported by the Mirror earlier this week , Inter Milan midfielder Sneijder is mulling over an offer to quit Serie A and become Old Trafford's record signing.

United legend Cantona said: "Sneijder is one of the best. He will be great for the team."

The Frenchman returns to Old Trafford this week, 14 years after his retirement from the Reds, for Paul Scholes' testimonial.

And Cantona has fully endorsed 27-year-old Sneijder's ability to inherit the mantle from Scholes.

Speaking at the London launch of a book on iconic US side New York Cosmos, where he is now director of soccer, Cantona said: "Sneijder is an excellent player.

"He is what Manchester United needs. There's no-one like him right now.

He's strong. Sometimes he reminds me of myself."

Cantona established himself as one of the best players in United's history during his time at the club.

He is regarded as playing a key role in re-establishing the club as a force after leading the Class of '92 to four Premier League titles in his five years there.

Cantona also clinched two League and FA Cup Doubles.

Inter have repeatedly played down the chances of Sneijder leaving the San Siro, maintaining he will play in this weekend's Super Cup game against AC Milan in Beijing.

Inter's chief executive officer, Ernesto Paolilli, said yesterday: "Sneijder is here and he's an important part of our team."

Inter coach Gian Piero Gasperini said earlier this week: "He's playing for us, training with us and he'll play on Saturday. There is no Sneijder problem."

United, however, have until the end of the month to seal the deal.

And earlier this week Sneijder himself refused to rule out a move to the Premier League champions.

The midfielder, who would have to his Inter wages of £250,000 a week slashed, said: "There is always a chance something will happen but we will see."

The new Chicharito? What Liverpool fans can actually expect from Marco Bueno.

Football Spy has signed up some of the web's top foreign football experts to provide you with first-hand information on the latest Premier League transfer targets. Here's Joe Krishnan on Liverpool target Marco Bueno.

Liverpool fans have become used to seeing new faces arrive this summer following big money acquisitions of stars like Jordan Henderson, Stewart Downing and Charlie Adam.

And yet, should Kenny Dalglish decide to take the plunge, one of the club's best signings could also be the least heralded: 17-year-old Mexican Marco Bueno.

FC Pachuca first snapped up Bueno after some impressive performances in local youth tournaments. And while he has never made a senior appearance for Pachuca, Bueno was loaned out to second-tier outfit Club Leon, for whom he impressed in his only appearance before joining up with the Mexico U17 squad for the age group's World Cup.

And what a tournament Bueno had. After Mexico sealed the trophy with a 2-0 win over a much-fancied Uruguay side, he was hailed as not just the creative force in the team, but also one of the country's most promising talents.

Bueno played the trequartista role to tremendous effect and formed a lethal strike partnership with Chivas’ Carlos Fierro.

Having played together from a very young age, the pair had an almost telepathic understanding, allowing them to slip into almost imperceptible channels in otherwise watertight defences.

Bueno only scored once in the competition - a glancing header against Panama in the group stage - but he more than made up for his lack of goals by disrupting defences and creating spaces with his vision and smart movement.

Despite that meagre return, he is a natural finisher who's excellent with both feet and was prolific for Pachuca's youth side.

The comparisons to Manchester United’s Mexican striker Javier Hernandez are inevitable, but Bueno recently stated that his dream is to follow the path of former Liverpool striker Fernando Torres.

And watching Bueno in action proves that the comparisons to Hernandez are wide of the mark.

His pace, movement and anticipation make Bueno a nightmare for defenders. He constantly comes deep to receive passes, and shows a willingness to retain possession and get the ball forward.

Liverpool fans hoping for instant rewards could well be disappointed, though.

Bueno will almost certainly be viewed as a prospect for the future, rather than a signing who can make an immediate impact.

There's also the danger he might not break through at all.

Liverpool fans won't need reminding that Rafa Benitez signed several young strikers, such as Kristian Nemeth, who failed to blossom into first-team regulars.

Yet, you feel that it will be different for this particular hopeful.

It's not often that a youngster playing in Mexico is targeted by Real Madrid, Barcelona, Arsenal and AC Milan.

The striker's surname translates into English as ‘good’ - and Bueno should more than live up to his name.

Neno mcharuko ndilo linalotosha kusindikiza tabia ya staa wa filamu Bongo, Elizabeth Michael ‘Lulu’, kutokana na vioja vya kiwango cha juu alivyofanya Moshi, Kilimanjaro wiki iliyopita.

Lulu, alikwenda Moshi na mastaa wenzake wa Bongo Movie Club kwenye tamasha moja kuelekea miaka 50 ya Uhuru, wakiwa kwenye Viwanja vya Hugo, ‘bi mdogo’ huyo alimwaga ‘lazi’ baada ya kuchizika kwa sebene.

Bendi ya African Stars International ‘Twanga Pepeta’, ilihusika vilivyo ambapo Lulu alipoitwa jukwaani ‘kusugua kisigino’, yeye alisasambua mithili ya Kundi la Welawela.

Dakika nne ambazo Lulu alizitumia kufanya kweli jukwaani, zilitosha kuthibitisha uwezo wake wa kuyakata mayenu.

Hata hivyo, umati uliohudhuria tamasha hilo, ulinong’ona kwamba Lulu ni mcharuko kwa sababu alipoitwa jukwaani, alitakiwa kucheza sebene kidogo lakini yeye alinengua kuliko wanenguaji wa Twanga.

Paparazi wetu alikuwepo uwanjani hapo na kumshuhudia Lulu akicheza mpaka ‘kugalagala’ sakafuni kama picha ukurasa wa kwanza zinavyozungumza.

Pamoja na kumponda kwa kuonesha ‘ucharuko’ wake, kundi lingine lilimfagilia kuwa siku akishindwa uigizaji, anaweza kulamba mshahara wa nguvu kwenye bendi kubwa Bongo kutokana na uwezo wake wa kunengua.

“Anajua kucheza, yaani siamini kama ni Lulu. Kumbe siyo kwenye filamu tu, hata kwenye muziki ni mkali,” Vicky Mushi mkazi wa Soweto alizungumza baada ya kushikwa na hamasa.

Mbali na Lulu, mastaa Vincent Kigosi ‘Ray’, Steven Kanumba, Isa Musa ‘Cloud’, Jacob Steven ‘JB’ na wengineo walicheza sebene lakini hawakufua dafu kwa mauno ya ‘bi mdogo’.

Ukiachana na tukio hilo, Bongo Movie Club waliacha gumzo Moshi ambapo tamasha hilo, lilikusanya umati mkubwa wa watu.

Jay-Z Talks Watch the Throne; His Relationship With President Obama


(AllHipHop News) Rapper Jay-Z stopped by Hot 97 yesterday (August 2nd), where he discussed a number of topics, including reports surrounding his upcoming album with Kanye West, titled Watch the Throne and his relationship with President Barack Obama.

During the interview with Angie Martinez, Jay-Z addressed growing reports that he and Kanye West were feuding over details of the upcoming Watch the Throne tour, which is slated to kick off September 22nd in Detroit, Michigan.

"We have a healthy respect for one another and I know exactly where he's [Kanye] coming from," Jay-Z said. "It's always about the art and you have to respect that. And again, I've said that people who don't respect that, don't enjoy being pushed in that way."

Jay-Z also addressed criticism surrounding the pre-release of Watch the Throne, which angered a number of independent record stores across the country, who believe they will lose out on physical sales due to the Internet.

“As far as making this album, we took eight months," Jay-Z continued. "We should be able to release it the way we like, without everybody being up in arms. The real reason behind it is that we didn't want it to leak. We wanted to present it to the people in its entirety."

As for Watch the Throne leaking, Jay-Z said that would not happen.

According to Jay, the album has been guarded tightly since the initial recording sessions began.

Jay-Z also discussed his relationship with President Barack Obama, who he has met on several occasions.

Jay-Z detailed a trip to Washington D.C. , where he dined with Mayor Adrian Fenty and then headed to the White House, for a meeting with the Commander in Chief, of the United States of America.

According to Jay-Z, President Barack Obama is the “second coolest person in the world…," next to himself, noting that he received a "positive reaction" from the President.

"It's very humbling, it's weird, but I love it," Jay-Z said.

Will, 42, gushes to Architectural Digest magazine that the layout of the 25,000sq ft house has been designed with no 'dead ends… to create an infinite cycle that represented what Jada and I hoped for our love'.

The Smith home, designed by architect Stephen Samuelson, includes a plethora of hand-crafted elements, ensuring an intimate and bespoke feel. And Samuelson reveals the sprawling pad takes inspiration from various cultures, from Persian, Moroccan and Spanish to Southwest America.

The spiritual quality the pair wanted to create is cemented with a meditation room for Jada.

Hawthorne star Jada told the magazine: 'For Will and me this home was always a spiritual endeavour.

'We’re very earthy, organic people. We wanted to create a family retreat, something made by hand and as natural as possible, something that ties back to the land.'

The 39-year-old added: 'Whatever it becomes, the craftsmanship will always represent our union and the love of our family.'

Will and Jada have several homes spotted across the globe, including ones in Miami Beach, Stockholm and Philadelphia.

His son Trey is from his previous marriage to Sheree Zampino, who he married in 1992 before divorcing in 1995.

Trey appeared in his father's music video for the 1998 single Just the Two of Us.
