Wataalamu wa maabara wapaza sauti Zanzibar

Unguja. Utaratibu ulioanzishwa na Serikali wa kuendesha huduma za maabara za afya kwa utaratibu wa ubia kupitia kampuni na mashirika binafsi kwenye hospitali, umeendelea kuibua wasiwasi kwa wataalamu na wameshauri uangaliwe upya.

Mfumo huo ulianza kufanya kazi mwaka 2023 ambapo katika baadhi ya hospitali za Serikali huduma za maabara zinaendeshwa na kampuni binafsi, lengo likiwa kuleta ufanisi.

Katika risala ya wataalamu wa maabara iliyosomwa na Ussi Hamza Ussi, katika kilele cha maadhimisho ya wiki ya maabara leo Aprili 21, 2024, amesema bado uendeshaji wa maabara hizo si rafiki kwa wahudumu ambao tayari wapo kwenye mfumo rasmi wa ajira wa Serikali au wanaotarajia kuingia kwenye mfumo huo.

“Wabia waliomo kwenye uendeshaji wa maabara hizo kwa sasa bado hawajatambua umuhimu wa kutumia wataalamu wa maabara wa ngazi ya kati na ile ya wabobezi.

Ussi, ambaye pia ni mtaalamu wa maabara, amesema masilahi hayatoi fursa kwa wataalamu hao kuondoka serikalini kwenda kufanya kazi kwenye maabara zenye ubia.

Wameshauri Serikali iangalie jambo hilo ili uendeshaji ubadilike na utoe fursa kwa wataalamu wa kuanzia ngazi ya Shahada ya kwanza na wabobezi wajiunge, kwani wana hamu kubwa na wana wajibu wa kuhudumia wananchi.

Rais wa Zanzibar Dk Hussein Mwinyi, katika hotuba yake iliyosomwa na Waziri wa Afya, Ahmed Mazrui, amesema nia ya Serikali si kuua kada ya maabara bali kuboresha huduma.

“Nia ya Serikali si kuua kada ya maabara kama mnavyodhani bali ni kuboresha huduma kwa wagonjwa. Ninakubali, kweli Serikali haikuandaa mwongozo na utaratibu wa watumishi kwenye taasisi ambazo zinachukua ubia wa maabara zetu,” amesema Dk Mwinyi.

Hata hivyo, amewataka watendaji wa taasisi zinazohusika wakae na wabia wawashauri utaratibu mzuri wa mishahara na posho kwa mujibu wa miongozo ya Serikali, ili watumishi wa ngazi hizo ambao wapo serikalini na wale wanaotegemea kujiunga na ajira ya Serikali waone fursa hiyo na kujiunga.

Pia amezitaka taasisi za maabara kujikita katika utafiti na kuongeza nguvu kwenye taasisi hizo.

Amesema kufanya uchuguzi kwa njia za kiutafiti zitasaidia udhibiti wa maradhi kwa njia za kisayansi.

Amesema Serikali itaendelea kuziboresha maabara hizo ili ziendelee kufanya uchunguzi na utafiti wenye tija katika maradhi, vinasaba, kemikali, vyakula kwa pande zote za binaadamu, mifugo na kilimo.

Amewataka kuongeza bidii kuwatumikia wananchi wote kwa utii na kwa mujibu wa taaluma zao na viapo kwa kutoa majibu sahihi ya uchunguzi na kutunza siri kwa wanayoyagundua.

Dk Mwinyi amesema kada hiyo ina dhima kubwa kwa jamii na Serikali maana wote wanawaamini na kuwategemea.

Tanzania’s opposition party ACT Wazalendo honours veteran politician under new policy

Unguja. Opposition party ACT Wazalendo today officially bids farewell to its former Chairman, Juma Duni Haji, also known as Babu Duni, as part of a new policy designed to honor retired senior leaders at a ceremony held at Kiembesamaki, Zanzibar.

The initiative highlights the party’s commitment to recognizing and supporting individuals who have served with dedication and integrity.

Babu Duni, who stepped down earlier this year, was succeeded by Othman Masoud, now the First Vice President of Zanzibar.

The policy aims to provide ongoing respect and support to retired leaders, ensuring their continued recognition and contribution to the party’s development.

“Recognizing their significant contributions to the development and prosperity of the party, this policy ensures that retired leaders continue to be acknowledged and respected by both the party and the community,” the policy states.

To benefit from this policy, leaders must not have left or been expelled from the party. They must have served the party with honor and dedication. The national leadership committee will determine whether a leader has fulfilled these criteria.

The policy seeks to honor retired leaders, protect their dignity, acknowledge their contributions, leverage their ideas for the party’s growth, and support them to the best of the party’s ability.

In honoring these leaders, the party will provide a vehicle, the type of which will be determined by the national leadership committee. Additionally, they will receive a monthly allowance, with the amount also set by this committee.

Other benefits include health insurance. If a leader does not own a home, the party will cover their rent at a rate decided by the committee.

The leadership committee may also grant special recognition based on the leader’s contributions. Retired leaders will participate in decision-making meetings according to procedures outlined in the party’s constitution.

Depending on the party’s resources at the time, the policy may also apply to retired deputy chairpersons for both the mainland and Zanzibar, the Secretary-General, Deputy Secretary-General for both mainland and Zanzibar, and the party’s Attorney General.

Additionally, leaders, executives, or members with exceptional contributions to the party’s protection, advocacy, and defense may also benefit, as determined by the leadership committee.

Currently, those who are eligible for benefits under this policy include Juma Duni Haji (retired party Chairman) and Zitto Kabwe (retired party leader).Continue Reading
