"Simlipi Wema Mil 13 Ng'o" - Kajala

JAMBO limezua jambo! Zile shilingi milioni 13 alizolipa staa mkubwa wa kike Bongo, Wema Isaac Sepetu ‘Beautiful Onyinye’ mahakamani ili kumnusuru Kajala Masanja kwenda gerezani, zinaendelea kusababisha fukuto na sasa Kajala amejibu mapigo, akisema hatamlipa Wema fedha hizo.

Malkia wa filamu za Kibongo, Kajala Masanja.

Wema na Kajala wapo kwenye gogoro zito kwa muda mrefu huku mashabiki wa mastaa hao waliojipa majina ya Team Wema (wanaomuunga mkono Wema) na Team Kajala (walio upande wa Kajala) wakiukuza ugomvi huo kwa kushambuliana kwa maneno makali kwenye mitandao mbalimbali ya kijamii.

WEMA KUFUNGUKA
Katika gazeti hili, toleo namba 877 la Aprili 25-Mei Mosi, 2014 la wiki iliyopita, liliandika habari ya Wema iliyokuwa na kichwa; Kwa mara ya kwanza Wema afunguka, asema: NAJUTA KUMLIPIA KAJALA MIL. 13!
Hiyo ilikuwa mara ya kwanza kwa Wema kufunguka baada ya bifu la kimyakimya la muda mrefu ambapo alifafanua chanzo cha bifu lao na namna anavyojuta kumlipia Kajala fedha hizo.
“Kusema kweli najuta kumlipia (Kajala) ile faini ya Sh. milioni 13. Bora angeenda jela miaka saba kuliko kunisababishia matatizo na maumivu kiasi hiki. Mimi sijawahi kumsema vibaya K kisa eti nilimlipia fedha hizo,” alisema Wema katika gazeti hilo.

Alipoambiwa kama Kajala yupo tayari kurudisha fedha hizo alisema:
“Kama anataka kunilipa, anilipe kisha aende jela maana mimi sikumkopesha, nilitoa kwa moyo.” 

Diva wa filamu Bongo, Wema Isaac Sepetu a.k.a ‘Beautiful Onyinye’.

HABARI ZA MOTO

Baada ya gazeti hilo kuruka mitaani na Kajala kulipata ndipo akaeleza mambo mazito.
Akizungumza na mwanahabari wetu, Kajala alisema katika vitu ambavyo Wema anatakiwa kuvisahau ni pamoja na kumlipia mahakamani hizo milioni 13.
“Siwezi kumlipa ng’o. Namlipa nini sasa na kivipi? Kwani tulikopeshana? Hakuna anachonidai Wema, hata kama akisema nimlipe, siwezi kufanya hivyo,” alisema Kajala.
Huku akimwaga machozi, Kajala aliendelea: “Unajua haya mambo yanachukuliwa kirahisi tu na wadandiaji wa mambo, ni vile watu hawajui ni kwa kiwango gani hili suala linaniumiza.
“Wema alinisaidia, alinilipia fedha mahakamani wakati ambao nilikuwa na uhitaji na sikuwa na zile fedha. Kama asingejitokeza kunilipia nilikuwa nakwenda jela.
“Lile ni jambo kubwa. Thamani yake haifananishiki na fedha. Ule ulikuwa ni utu tu, sasa leo iweje ligeuzwe kuwa kama deni? Siwezi kufanya hivyo.”

YUPO TAYARI KWA SULUHU
Kwa mara nyingine tena, Kajala alisema kuhusu kupatana na Wema yupo tayari muda wowote, maana haoni sababu ya kuendelea kwa ugomvi huo.
Hii ni mara ya tatu Kajala kuzungumzia suluhu akisisitiza: “Nakosa amani kabisa na huu mzigo. Natamani kuutua. Nipo tayari kukutanishwa naye hata leo tuyamalize.” 

HABARI YA MJINI

Habari ambazo zimeenea mjini lakini bado hazijathibitishwa zinadai kuwa, Kajala anajiamini kwa sababu anajua fedha alizolipiwa na Wema si zake, zililipwa na aliyekuwa mwanaume (boyfriend) wa Wema, yule kigogo wa Ikulu anayetajwa kwa jina la CK.
“Lile lilikuwa agizo, Wema hakuwa na fedha zote zile kwa ajili ya kumlipia Kajala. Alipewa na CK na kuambiwa amlipie ili asiende jela,” alisema mmoja wa watu wa karibu na mastaa hao kwa sharti la kutotajwa gazetini.

ETI ULIKUWA MPANGO!
Chanzo kinaendelea: “Alivyoingia mitaani, CK akajiweka karibu na Kajala na kumweleza mchongo mzima, kuwa yeye ndiye aliyetoa  hizo fedha kwa hiyo asiwe na wasiwasi.
“Ndiyo maana hata Wema na CK walivyoachana ikawa rahisi kwa CK kujimilikisha Kajala moja kwa moja kwa sababu anaujua ukweli.”
Haya ni madai ya chanzo chetu ambayo hayajathibitishwa na wahusika.

SAFARI ZA CHINA VIPI?
Habari nyingine ambazo bado zinafuatiliwa ili zithibitishwe, zinasema kuwa, safari nyingi za Kajala kwenda China kwa mapumziko huwa anamfuata au kuongozana na CK.
“Hata sasa hivi (juzi Jumatano) wapo safarini China wanakula bata. Yaani haya mambo yamejifunga sana. Yanahitaji hekima sana kuyamaliza,” aliendelea kudai.

BIFU HADI LINI?
Wadau wa tasnia ya filamu Bongo, kwa nyakati tofauti wamekuwa wakipiga simu na kutuma ujumbe mfupi katika chumba cha habari cha magazeti pendwa Tanzania, Global Publishers na kueleza jinsi ambavyo mtaani kunazidi kuchafuka kuhusu sakata hilo huku wengi wakiwataka wayamalize.
“Haya mambo yanakuzwa na watu. Hawa ni wasanii wazuri, wana majina makubwa na wanaendana, nashauri wazungumze, wayamalize. Bifu lao halijengi badala yake linabomoa,” Maimuna Sadallah wa Majani Mapana, Tanga alieleza katika ujumbe wake.
Msomaji mwingine aliyejitambulisha kwa jina la mama Mwaija mkazi wa Mbagala - Maji  Matitu, Dar alikuwa na haya ya kusema: “Haya mambo ya wanangu Wema na Kajala yananichoma sana. Napenda sana filamu zao, nafurahia namna wanavyoshirikiana na kusaidiana. Hebu wamlaani shetani.”

WAZAZI WAOMBWA KUINGILIA KATI
James Sukae wa Kimara-Baruti, Dar alisema: “Hili jambo na umri wao naona ni kubwa sana kwao kulimaliza. Tukisema tusubiri wayamalize wenyewe, haitawezekana ila litazidi kuwa kubwa.
“Kajala ana wazazi wake, Wema naye kadhalika.
Tena hapa nisisitize, wazazi wanaopaswa zaidi kushughulikia hili ni mama zao. Mama Kajala na mama Wema wanatakiwa kukutana na watoto wao ili wawakalishe na kuzungumza.
“Kwangu mimi, mbele ya wazazi ni jambo dogo sana. Hekima zao ni kubwa na bila shaka watalimaliza kuliko kuacha likielea kama ilivyo sasa. Wakipuuzia hili suala litasababisha janga kubwa.”

Why would you encourage someone to e-mail you to vent but then never respond at all?

Why would you encourage someone to e-mail you to vent but then never respond at all? :( I do appreciate your kindness in letting me vent, but I'm super isolated so I'm especially sensitive to this sort of thing. I certainly don't want to add to your stress (sorry), but it would be nice to get some clarification. Thanks.

Wow. 

Wow. You know, very rarely do I get messages that genuinely upset me. But this. This pulled my last straw today (of which I had very few).

I am a full time student. I major in psychology, minor in biology, and take pre-physician assistant track. I’m on scholarships, which means I work my ass off to get the grades I need to keep those scholarships.

My free time is spent doing 1 of 5 things: advocacy work, spending time/volunteering with the sorority-structured group I am a part of on campus, studying, or sleeping.

My Hostel Room

I get anywhere from 5-30 messages a day. Sometimes I get them at 3:30 in the morning. Sometimes I get them at 9am. Sometimes 9pm. I get to some faster than others. If you look, you can see that my last 6+ posts have all been answering questions and responding to you guys. I read them all. I keep my inbox open and my email open because I love this community. I love reading your stories and I love being able to do what I can to help others navigating a difficult path.

Sometimes I answer them quickly. Others take more thought, more spoons, and more time. Let me be clear: for the thousands of hours I put into advocacy, I get paid for none of it. I do this because I love it. Because I believe in empowering patients and giving patients a safe space to grow, cope, and find their voice in a system that does a damn good job at trying to drown all of us out.  I open my inbox—and my time—to everyone with love. 

And then there are weeks where my life falls apart and you know what? I have to put myself first.

This week, my life has been a mess. I think sometimes you guys forget that I am a patient—a person with a life and big obstacles to face outside of what you read about here—too. If you follow me on twitter, you know that I’ve been dealing with absolute chaos this week. I’ll have you know that after not sleeping last night, I spent my afternoon in the pouring rain cleaning out my wrecked car in the middle of a junk yard. And after that fun excursion, I got the call that my insurance will not be reimbursing the full value of my car.

Meaning I just lost about four. thousand. dollars.

I don’t have a super supportive family. I don’t have a well-off family. I am skipping kineret shots because my doctor is dropping the ball with communication and my insurance just changed. I don’t know how I’m going to pay rent in a few days. Right now, things are really unbelievably fucking tough for me. And this message was my last straw. I had nothing else to give—to myself, to you, to anyone today. 

So if this is in regards to the email I received in the middle of the night: I read it. And you know what? It might take me a few days, maybe even a week to respond. Maybe longer.

And that’s okay. I will not apologize for that.

I do the best that I can. It's my own choice of life.......!

And I’m sorry if that’s not enough for you or for anyone else.

Lupita Nyong’o swaps looks on the red carpet for Vanity Fair’s Oscars 2014 after party

While the Oscars may actually be about the awards, we all know that red carpet glamour is the main reason us fashion gals tune in. While movie critics and fans alike are all talking about Gravity’s production awards sweep and Leo’s latest loss for Best Actor, we still can’t get over how amazing Lupita Nyong’o looked last night. Given her run this past red carpet season, we went into the night knowing she was going to look unreal, but she blew us out of the park on Hollywood’s biggest night.

Undeniably the belle of the ball, Nyong’o first wowed on the red carpet in a plunging powder blue Prada gown fit for a Grecian princess. The revealing gown was perfect for the Best Supporting Actress’ slight figure—anyone with too much décolletage would have been falling out of the dress. The deep-V front was mirrored in the back and in the open sides, and the full skirt was enriched with a dusting of crystal beading on the edges of the pleats to add some shimmer. The accessories were kept minimal, as to not over-power the gown, with Fred Leighton ear cuffs, gold wrap bracelet and a crystal and gold Prada Raso clutch.

After scooping up her Oscar and giving a heartfelt speech, the freshly dubbed Lupiterella (Lupita + Cinderella), courtesy of eTalk Hollywood, changed into a more party-friendly Miu Miu dress, inspired by the brand’s Spring 2014 collection. With a green beaded fringe neckline and crisp white colour, the dress worked perfectly with her headband and new gold hardware. A soft sweetheart neckline, thick straps and a streamlined silhouette kept the fringe from looking like a bad ‘80s bedazzled flashback and kept the dress fresh and youthful. Lupita kept her hair and make up relatively the same, swapping out her coral lipstick from the show for a bolder red lip and losing the gold bangle—you don’t need a regular ole gold bracelet when you won the ultimate gold accessory.

While Nyong’o was the star of the night, Miuccia Prada deserves some props for being the creative mastermind behind the two looks. Both of the dresses were equally glamorous but so very different—do you prefer the storybook princess moment or the clean and tropical look? Cast your vote now! 

  

JK amuweka kitanzini Profesa Kapuya

RAIS Jakaya Kikwete ameviagiza vyombo vya dola kuhakikisha vinamkamata mtu yeyote bila kujali cheo, atakayebainika kumbaka au kumuoa mwanafunzi wa shule. 

Ametoa kauli hiyo huku aliyekuwa waziri wa wizara tofauti katika awamu mbalimbali za uongozi, Profesa Juma Kapuya, akiandamwa na tuhuma za kumbaka na kutishia kumuua binti, mwanafunzi mwenye umri wa miaka 16.

Ingawa Rais Kikwete hakutaja jina, lakini ni dhahiri kuwa kauli hiyo inamgusa pia Profesa Kapuya, Mbunge wa Urambo Magharibi (CCM).

Akizungumza kwa nyakati tofauti kwenye mikutano ya hadhara kwenye wilaya za Itilima, Meatu na Maswa mkoani Simiyu, Rais Kikwete alisema mtu anayefanya mapenzi na wanafunzi lazima akamatwe, ahojiwe na kufunguliwa mashitaka ya ubakaji na si vinginevyo.

"Kuna watu wanafanya mapenzi hadi na wanafunzi wakati sote tunajua ukimwi upo na hauna dawa na unaua. Kwa hiyo kila mmoja wetu awe makini kujikinga nao na tuepuke kuwaambukiza wengine," alisisitiza Rais Kikwete.

Wakati Rais Kikwete akisisitiza wahalifu wa makosa ya kubaka na kuoa wanafunzi wachukuliwe hatua, polisi jijini Dar es Salaam wamekuwa wakisuasua kumchukulia hatua Profesa Kapuya licha ya binti anayedaiwa kumbaka, kufungua jalada namba OB/RB/21124/13 katika kituo cha Polisi Oysterbay, jijini Dar es Salaam, akidai kutishiwa kuuawa na mbunge huyo.

Kauli ya Rais Kikwete imeonyesha dhahiri kukerwa na moja ya ujumbe mfupi wa maneno wa simu ya mkononi kutoka kwenye simu inayodaiwa kumilikiwa na Profesa Kapuya kwenda kwa binti aliyebakwa, ambapo mbunge huyo alijigamba kwamba serikali haiwezi kumfanya chochote.

Ujumbe huo unasomeka hivi: "Mkiuawa itakuwa vizuri…itawapunguzia gharama za kuishi, usitake kugombana na serikali mtoto mdogo kama wewe, sisi ndiyo wenye nchi yetu, mwenye hilo gazeti ni Mbowe, sasa mwambieni nyumba ya kuishi si mmemuingizia hela leo?

 Mnatumika tu bure watu wanaingiza hela nyingi, ila mmenitibua lazima niwaue, wiki hii haitaisha, nitapiga kambi kote, jana si wamekuficha, tuone utalindwa milele, maana washatengeneza hela, lazima mvae sanda tu, hilo sio ombi ni wajibu wenu, mnajitia na nyie mafia watoto siyo, watoto wetu wanauza unga nani anawakamata? Nani atapingana  nasi."

Habari kutoka Ikulu ya Rais Kikwete zinaeleza kuwa kiongozi huyo wa nchi amekerwa na kauli ya mbunge huyo wa Urambo Magharibi kwamba serikali haiwezi kumfanya jambo lolote.

Ni kutokana na kauli hiyo, mtoa taarifa wetu alisema rais aliagiza vyombo vya dola kufuatilia kwa karibu sakata hilo na kuhakikisha sheria inachukua mkondo wake.

Pamoja na msimamo wa Rais Kikwete na binti anayedaiwa kubakwa kuripoti polisi, Profesa Kapuya alifanikiwa kusafiri nje ya nchi huku polisi wakimshuhudia bila kumtia mbaroni.

Akiwa nje ya nchi, Kamanda wa Polisi Mkoa wa Kinondoni, Camilius Wambura, alikaririwa mara kadhaa akijigamba kuwa polisi inamsaka mbunge huyo na itamtia mbaroni mahala popote alipo.

Hata hivyo, Profesa Kapuya alirejea nchini juzi huku polisi wakimshuhudia bila kuchufkua hatua zozote.

Mwanafunzi huyo anadai kubakwa na Profesa Kapuya kwenye moja ya hoteli ya kitalii iliyoko jijini Dar es Salaam mwaka 2011, na kurudia tena kitendo hicho ndani ya ofisi yake katika Jengo la Biashara Complex lililoko Mwananyamala Juni 3, 2012 alipomuita kwenda kuchukua ada.

Laana!! Binti wa miaka 16 anaswa Akijiuza nyakati za Usiku Akiwa na mtoto mgongoni..!!

Binti (kulia) aliyenaswa akijiuza akiwa na mwanae jijini  Mwanza.

Ama kweli shida haina aibu wala huruma! Binti wa miaka 16 aliyetajwa kwa jina la Mama K, amenaswa laivu akifanya shughuli haramu za uchangudoa akiwa na mwanaye mgongoni, akidai chanzo cha kufanya hivyo ni kutokana na shida inayoiandama familia yake.

Binti huyo alibambwa hivi karibuni akijiuza huku mgongoni akiwa na mwanaye wa mwaka mmoja katika Barabara ya Uhuru (kwenye taa za kuongozea magari), jijini hapa.

Timu ya Oparesheni Fichua Maovu (OFM) ambayo imetinga rasmi mkoani hapa ilinasa tukio hilo usiku wa manane ambapo ilifanikiwa kufanya mahojiano na Mama K aliyekuwa na wenzake wengi 

walio chini ya miaka 18.

Paparazi wa OFM akiwa kazini jijini Mwanza.

OFM ilichukua maelezo pamoja na picha za mnato huku wenzake wakitoka nduki baada ya kuona mwanga wa kamera.

Cha kushangaza, wakati akihojiwa na OFM, Mama K alidai kuwa haogopi  kupigwa picha kwa sababu alishanaswa na kuhojiwa runingani kuhusiana na ishu ya kujiuza hivyo siyo ishu kwake na wala haoni aibu.

Huku akiwa na mwanaye mgongoni, binti huyo alidai kuwa amekuwa akijiuza kutokana na ugumu wa maisha. 

OFM: Wewe unatokea maeneo gani na ulianza lini kujiuza? 

Mama K: Mimi ni mwenyeji wa Misungwi (wilaya), kwa hapa mjini naishi Mabatini. Sikumbuki nilianza lini lakini yote hii ni kutokana na ugumu wa maisha. 

OFM: Huyo mtoto mgongoni ni wa kwako? 

Mama K: Ndiyo ni mwanangu wa kumzaa, ana zaidi ya mwaka. Nilijifungua nikiwa na umri wa miaka 15. 

OFM: Baba wa mtoto yuko wapi? 

Mama K: Sijui. 

OFM: Ukipata mteja unamuweka wapi mtoto au unaenda kulala naye na mwanaume?

Mama K: (huku akiondoka) Nawaachia wenzangu.

Katika kujikusanyia data za kutosha, uchunguzi wa OFM uliogusa viunga mbalimbali jijini hapa ulibaini kuwa biashara hiyo haramu imeshika kasi ya ajabu ikihusisha vitoto vidogo kati ya umri wa miaka 12 hadi 16.

Kuhusu bei, tofauti na Dar ambako bei huwa ni ghali, jijini hapa vibinti hivyo vidogo hujiuza kwa kati ya shilingi elfu saba hadi kumi na tano kwa usiku mzima. Hakuna mambo ya 'short time'.

Katika kubainisha ukweli wa mambo kuhusiana na vitendo vya ukahaba ndani ya Jiji la Mwanza, OFM ilimtafuta meya wa jiji hilo ambapo simu yake ya mkononi haikupatikana hewani.

Akizungumzia na gazeti hili kuhusiana na ishu hiyo ya watoto wadogo kujihusisha na biashara hiyo haramu ya ngono, Mkuu wa Mkoa wa Mwanza, Evarist Ndikilo alikuwa na haya ya kusema:

"Sina taarifa yoyote kuhusiana na watoto hao wanaojiuza ndiyo nasikia kwako labda unipe muda niongee na uongozi wa chini nitalichukulia hatua mara moja.

WOSIA WA BABA MANDELA ULIZUA UTATA BIN TAFRANI NDANI YA UKOO.

 Marehemu Nelson Mandela enzi za uhai wake.

MZEE MANDELA ALIACHA WOSIA:

WOSIA aliowahi kuuandika hayati Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela 'Mzee Madiba' au 'Tata' (95) enzi za uhai wake akielezea anavyotaka azikwe, ndiyo tishio kubwa lenye utata kuelekea siku ya mazishi yake, Jumapili ijayo, Ijumaa Wikienda limebaini.
Mtandao mmoja nchini humo umeukumbushia wosia huo huku familia ikianza kuonesha misimamo tofauti tofauti, hali inayoashiria kuibuka kwa makundi mawili yanayokinzana ndani ya ukoo. 

Gari lililobeba mwili wa Nelson Mandela.

FAMILIA INAVYOTAKA:
Habari za ndani zilisema kuwa familia inataka mazishi ya kiongozi huyo maarufu duniani yawe makubwa na ya kisasa kwa vile viongozi wa nchi mbalimbali duniani watahudhuria.
"Mandela ni kingozi mkubwa sana duniani, mazishi yake lazima yawe makubwa pia ya kisasa. Hawezi kuzikwa kama mwananchi wa kawaida," ilisomeka sehemu ya taarifa hiyo. 

Mmoja wa waombolezaji akigusa picha na Mandela.

Taarifa hiyo iliongeza kuwa wakati familia hasa wajukuu na watoto wake wakishikilia msimamo huo, wapo wanandugu wanaotaka azikwe kama alivyoandika katika wosia wake huo.

SERIKALI YAPANGA MAMBO BILA KUFUATA WOSIA:
Habari zaidi zilisema kuwa Serikali ya Afrika Kusini inajitahidi kuupangua wosia huo kwa kuendelea na maandalizi ya mazishi kama haukuwahi kuwepo licha ya kwamba jamii ya watu nchini humo inaheshimu wosia wa marehemu.

WOSIA UNAVYOSEMA:
Mzee Madiba alishauandika wosia huo kwenye karatasi moja tu ambapo aliagiza anavyotaka azikwe. Alisema kuwa akifa azikwe katika milima iliyojitenga nyumbani kwa mababu zake katika Kijiji cha Qunu, Eastern Cape huko 'Sauzi'.

Waombolezaji wakiweka maua katika sanamu la Mandela.

ALITAKA MAZISHI YA KAWAIDA SANA:
Inadaiwa wosia huo aliuandika Januari, 1996 wakati bado akiwa rais ambao ulijaa maelekezo yote juu ya mazishi yake. Aliagiza kufanyiwa mazishi ya kawaida sana yenye hadhi ya raia wa kawaida nchini humo hivyo kuyafanya kuwa makubwa na ya kifahari ni kukiuka wosia wa mzee.

KABURI ALILOLITAKA MANDELA:
Katika wosia wake huo uliotolewa na rafiki yake wa karibu, Mzee Madiba aliandika kuwa akifa azikwe katika eneo la familia lenye makaburi ya ukoo wa Mandela kijijini hapo.
Pia aliagiza kuwa kaburi lake liwekewe jiwe la kawaida kama alama ya mahali lilipo ili lisije kupotea kwa mvua au mabadiliko ya tabia nchi.

Rais wa Afrika Kusini, Jacob Zuma.

ALITAKA KABURI LISISAKAFIWE:
Katika tafsiri ya maneno hayo, Mzee Madiba alitaka kaburi lake liwe la kawaida sana, akimaanisha lisijengewe kama ilivyokuwa kwa makaburi ya viongozi wengine wa mfano wake barani Afrika kama, Mwalimu Julius Nyerere wa Tanzania na Kamuzu Banda (aliyekuwa Rais wa Malawi).

WOSIA WAKE ULIKUWA WA UPANDE MMOJA WA KARATASI:
Magazeti ya nchini humo, South African Mail na Guardian miezi ya karibuni yaliripoti kumnukuu rafiki huyo wa siku nyingi wa familia ya Mandela akisema: "Madiba hakuwahi kukifanya kifo kuwa jambo kubwa la kufikiriwa, pia hakuwahi kutaka chochote cha fahari wakati wa kumzika."
Cha ajabu, wosia huo wa Mandela ulitosha kwenye upande mmoja wa karatasi ya kawaida ya kuandikia licha ya kwamba mauzo ya kitabu chake cha Long Walk to Freedom na michoro yenye jina lake vilimpatia mamilioni ya fedha.

Nelson Mandela (kulia) akiwa na Mwalimu Julius Nyerere enzi za uhai wao.

FAMILIA YACHUKIZWA NA WOSIA:
Wosia huo ulielezwa kuwashangaza watu wengi duniani kwani waliamini angekuwa na vitu vingi vya kuandika kulingana na uwezo wake.
Kwa mujibu wa Shirika la Utangazaji la Afrika Kusini, SABC, suala hilo la sehemu atakayozikwa Mzee Madiba liliiudhi mno familia yake akiwemo yule mjukuu wake ambaye ni chifu, Mandla Mandela aliyewahi kufikishwa kortini kwa kuhamisha makaburi hayo ya ukoo na kuyapeleka sehemu nyingine. Pia ndiye msemaji wa familia ya Mandela.

DUNIA YAMPINGA MANDELA NA WOSIA WAKE:
Baadhi ya wanaharakati ulimwenguni kote walisema wosia huo unapingana na matakwa ya dunia nzima, ambapo walitaka maziko ya mzee huyo yawe  makubwa na ya kihistoria ambayo hayajawahi kutokea. 

Ilifahamika kwamba dunia inataka mazishi hayo yavunje ile rekodi iliyoshikiliwa na mazishi ya Papa John Paul II aliyefariki dunia Aprili 2, 2005.

Mjukuu wa Nelson Mandela, Mandla Mandela.

SAFARI HII HAKUKIMBIZWA HOSPITALI:
Mzee Madiba ambaye alitimiza umri wa miaka 95 Julai 18, mwaka huu, alikuwa hospitalini kwa karibu miezi  mitatu nyuma akitibiwa maambukizi kwenye mapafu huku akipumulia mashine. Baadaye alipata nafuu na kurudishwa nyumbani ambako usiku wa kuamkia Ijumaa iliyopita aliugua ghafla na kufariki dunia.

Mourners then faced huge queues at the Union Buildings where Mr Mandela's body is lying

Waiting to see their hero: This image shows thousands of South Africans queuing for around two miles to get on buses to take them to view Nelson Mandela's body.Nelson Mandela was today given back to ordinary South Africans who queued in their thousands from the early hours to file past his open casket on a day of viewing reserved for the public.

Aerial images showed lines of mourners snaking for around two miles as they queued patiently for buses to the building where his body is lying in state and then again as they waited to go inside. 

 Until now the cameras of the world have often been trained on leaders, VIPs and celebrities paying tribute to a man known for his common touch - a man who related to princes and paupers with equal ease.

A day for the people: Until now the cameras of the world have often been trained on leaders, VIPs and celebrities paying tribute to a man known for his common touch

Ordinary mourners from all walks of life had also queued for hours on end yesterday to view the body, but many were turned away by evening without having made it to the front of the long, winding line of people united in grief and gratitude for the father of their democratic nation.

Many returned today for another chance, with the entire day given over to general public access. 

'My heart is so broken,' said Anita Bodiba, 35, who arrived at the seat of government, the Union Buildings, hours before dawn to join the long queue that had already formed.'I can't even sleep, I'm thinking of Madiba. He is the one who united us here in South Africa - white people, black people, Indian people,' she said - using the clan name by which the democracy icon is fondly known.

On Wednesday, Mandela's distraught widow Graca Machel and other family members were followed by presidents, royalty and other international figures in paying their last respects in the amphitheatre of the Union Buildings where the Nobel laureate is laying in state.

It was here that he was inaugurated as South Africa's first black president in 1994, after emerging from 27 years' imprisonment.

A third day of lying in state will be held Friday, after which Mandela's body will be transported to his boyhood home of Qunu, ahead of its eventual burial on Sunday.

Thursday's programme began, as the day before, with Mandela's casket brought in a solemn cortege from the 1 Military Hospital to the Union Buildings.

Thousands lined the route as a black hearse, flanked by motorcycle outriders, carried the flag-draped coffin on its journey through the streets of Pretoria.

In the Union Buildings amphitheatre, soon to be renamed after him, Mandela's body lies underneath a perspex screen, dressed in the type of printed shirt that became his trademark.

Two navy officers stood by the coffin, their eyes downcast, and Mandela's grandson Mandla sat in a chair on the platform supporting the coffin.

Some visitors collapsed as they passed the coffin, felled by the weight of their grief, and were helped away by medical personnel and fellow mourners.

'It was so sad,' Alinah Lekalakala, 52, said after seeing the body of her icon.

'I needed to pay my last respects because I am so grateful for what he has done. This will help me to accept that he is gone.'

For Tryphina Kau, 78, the event was a joyful one.

'I am very, very happy because his spirit is still with us, only the body is going,' she said, recounting the day that Mandela shook her hand while she queued to vote in South Africa's first democratic elections in 1994.

'I saw him at the beginning, and I came to see him at the end.'

Lebogang Phillips, a 36-year-old police officer who had served on Mandela's security detail when he was president, remembered the man as 'the friendliest person I have ever met'.

'When meeting people, he would always try to speak their language, whatever it was.'

The line of people queueing to catch a glimpse of their hero was already several city blocks shortly after dawn, and continued snaking around streets surrounding the Union Buildings by lunchtime.

Some mourners were dressed in the vibrant yellow, green and black of the ruling African National Congress that Mandela once led, and many wore black armbands.

People carried posters bearing Mandela's likeness and many clutched miniature South African flags, dancing and singing revolutionary songs from the liberation struggle era as helicopters hovered overhead.

White South African siblings Sean and Louise Bos, 21 and 19 respectively, flew from Cape Town on Wednesday morning to be part of the historic occasion. 

They queued until closing time without making it to the front, then returned at 5.30am today, queueing about five hours to see him.

'We never met him so we thought we'd come to say goodbye,' said Sean, as the pair rushed to catch a plane home afterwards.
