WAANDISHI WA KIMATAIFA WAKOSHWA NA UZURI WA NGORONGORO
Waandishi nguli wa habari za michezo na burudani kutoka sehemu mbalimbali duniani, walioko nchini Tanzania kwa ziara ya kiutalii na kufuatilia maandalizi ya AFCON 2027, Oktoba 5, 2026 wamefika katika Hifadhi ya Ngorongoro na kushuhudia utajiri wa vivutio vya utalii nchini.
Katika ziara hiyo, waandishi hao wamejionea wanyamapori mbalimbali wakiwemo simba, faru, twiga na wengine, huku wakipata fursa ya kutembelea pia Makumbusho ya Binadamu wa Kale na kujifunza historia ya mwanadamu.
Waandishi hao wamesema ziara hiyo imewapa picha halisi ya Tanzania, wakisisitiza kuwa wageni watakaokuja nchini kwa ajili ya AFCON 2027 hawatapata fursa ya kufurahia mpira pekee, bali pia watapata nafasi ya kutembelea vivutio mbalimbali na kujionea uzuri, historia na utamaduni wa Tanzania.
“Hii ndiyo Tanzania! Ukija kwa AFCON 2027, hutafurahia mpira tu - utapata pia nafasi ya kugundua maajabu ya Tanzania kama Ngorongoro.”

The AI era must expand the ability of nations to shape their own future, not create new forms of technological dependency. That requires stronger cooperation to build the infrastructure, skills, research and governance capabilities that no country can secure alone.
For Africa, the priority is to capture more of the value created by AI through harnessing our energy, resources, data and talent to build our own capabilities, enterprises and solutions.
Kenya is pursuing this through our National Artificial Intelligence Strategy, with investments in digital infrastructure, data and AI governance, research, innovation and commercialisation to strengthen local capability, improve public services, raise productivity, and create new enterprises and jobs.

Leo, Septemba 22,2026 nimetoa taarifa kwa umma kuhusu tukio lililosababisha vifo na majeruhi katika Jumuiya ya Hifadhi ya Wanyamapori Ipole, mkoani Tabora, pamoja na vifo vya wanyamapori katika Eneo la Hifadhi ya Ngorongoro, mkoani Arusha.
Tukio la Tabora lilitokea Septemba 18, 2026, katika eneo la Jumuiya ya Hifadhi ya Wanyamapori Ipole, wilayani Sikonge, wakati watumishi wa uhifadhi walipokuwa wakitekeleza majukumu yao ya kulinda maliasili na rasilimali za Taifa. Tukio hilo lilisababisha vifo vya watu sita na wengine watano kujeruhiwa.
Jeshi la Polisi, kwa kushirikiana na vyombo vingine vya ulinzi na usalama, linaendelea kufanya uchunguzi wa kina ili kubaini chanzo, mazingira na wahusika wa tukio hilo. Hadi sasa, watu 34 wanashikiliwa kwa ajili ya kusaidia uchunguzi.
Kuhusu tukio la Ngorongoro, lililotokea pia Septemba 18, 2026, vifo vya simba 11 na fisi wawili vimethibitishwa. Uchunguzi wa awali umebaini kuwapo kwa majeraha katika mizoga ya baadhi ya wanyamapori hao. Uchunguzi wa kitaalamu unaendelea ili kubaini chanzo kamili cha vifo hivyo na kuwezesha hatua stahiki kuchukuliwa kwa mujibu wa sheria.
Ninawahakikishia wananchi na wadau wote wa uhifadhi kuwa Serikali itaendelea kusimamia uchunguzi wa matukio haya kwa umakini, weledi na kwa kuzingatia sheria za nchi.
Tutaendelea kuimarisha usalama na mazingira ya utendaji kazi kwa watumishi wanaotekeleza majukumu ya kulinda maliasili na rasilimali za Taifa. Vilevile, tutaongeza juhudi za kuzuia migogoro na kujenga mahusiano endelevu kati ya mamlaka za uhifadhi na jamii zinazozunguka maeneo yaliyohifadhiwa.
Serikali inatambua na kuthamini nafasi muhimu ya wananchi katika usimamizi endelevu wa maliasili. Kwa msingi huo, tutaendelea kuweka mkazo katika mawasiliano, ushirikishwaji wa jamii na utatuzi wa changamoto kwa njia za amani, mazungumzo na kwa mujibu wa sheria.
Ninatoa wito kwa wananchi kuendelea kuwa watulivu, kutoa ushirikiano kwa vyombo vinavyoendesha uchunguzi na kuepuka kusambaza taarifa ambazo hazijathibitishwa wakati taratibu rasmi za uchunguzi zikiendelea.

Sometimes, the closest you can get to nature is to simply walk with it.
No traffic. No engine. No rush. Just the wild.
Your footsteps, the whisper of nature, and the feeling of being completely present in Destination Ngorongoro.
Walk slowly. Feel deeply. Experience the Wonders.

Leo jijini Dar es Salaam nimeungana na viongozi wengine wa Afrika kufungua Mkutano Mkuu wa Wanahisa wa Taasisi ya Africa50 na Jukwaa la Miundombinu Afrika, ambapo Tanzania imepata heshima ya kuwa mwenyeji. Jukwaa hilo, linaloadhimisha miaka 10 tangu kuanzishwa kwake, limekuwa sehemu muhimu ya kuunganisha mitaji, miradi na wataalamu ili kuharakisha maendeleo ya miundombinu barani Afrika.
Katika mkutano huo nimeeleza kuwa, Tanzania inashirikiana kwa karibu na sekta binafsi katika kuimarisha miundombinu, ikiwemo barabara, reli, bandari na viwanja vya ndege. Hatua hii inachochea ukuaji endelevu wa uchumi kwa kupunguza gharama za usafirishaji, kukuza biashara, kuvutia uwekezaji, kutoa ajira na kuifanya nchi yetu kuwa kitovu cha usafirishaji.
Kutokana na mabadiliko ya kiuchumi, kisiasa na kimazingira duniani, nimesisitiza umuhimu wa Afrika kuimarisha miundombinu inayohimili mabadiliko hayo na kuunganisha nchi zetu ili kuendelea kukuza biashara, uwekezaji na uongezaji thamani wa rasilimali zetu.
