Copy and Paste Anti-Covid 19 Measures hit Hard East African Countries
By: Kimathi Njoroge, Mombasa
April 20,2020
There is an old saying that a falcon cannot bear the falconer. The saying is compared to some East African countries that have copied and pasted Western countries anti-COVID 19 measures. Specifically, I write in the view of my lovely country, Kenya. In academic sphere, Copy and Paste is academic suicide. This is no difference with copied and pasted measures against anti- COVID-19 measures in the World. In East African Context, each country opted her measures against COVID-19. But most countries in the region excluding our neighbours Tanzania copied and pasted Lockdown Western style. It is unfortunate that there has been no single coordinated formula in these countries to fight COVID-19. Now western styles against COVID-19 in Eastern countries have started to backfire. For example, Kenyan government has today told the public that it plans to re-open domestic flights and other travels to save the economy. The statement posted by BBC news stated clearly that Kenyan economy has been badly hit by total lockdown. The statement went further by stating that the country is also set to open up local tourism to save its economy. It should be noted that - Kenya is a middle income country that will not benefit the debt relief provided by World Bank and IMF to poor African countries. We have addresses this many times to Kenya government. In our neighbours Rwanda, the situation is the same. Yesterday, the country lamented for lockdown effects while pledging to continue with it. The government said it was becoming tough to feed all Rwandese on the pretext that the number of needy people is too high compared with the government's capacity In Uganda the situation is not different, Ugandans have been hit bitterly and hardly economically by the total lockdown. I spoke to my friends in Uganda - the majority are asking the government to re-open up businesses. President Kaguta Museveni has resisted his peoples call telling them that if you were poor before COVID-19 you will remain poor after COVID-19. It should be noted that last week the World Bank warned some African countries including Kenya against their copy and paste anti-COVID 19 behaviours. These countries were advised to use their think-tanks to plan best measures that suits their environment. Few countries in Africa have not copied and pasted Western countries. These include among others our neighbours Burundi and Tanzania. I researched over Tanzania’s measures and found despite the allegations against our neighbours, all World Health Organisation's anti- COVID-19 measures are in place but has not closed its borders. The country has neither halted domestic flights nor businesses shut down. It is possible that Tanzania analysed anti western COVID-19 measures and concluded that they will not bearfruits in the region. Recently, President John Magufuli told the congregation in the church that Tanzania is surrounded by eight countries that depend on it to survive adding that if we close the borders citizens in these countries will die. What kind of lovely gesture in our regional friendship! 8This was a strong statement coming from the leader whose country is also fighting COVID-19. If this is not enough, President Magufuli asked Tanzanian to hold three days prayers against Covid-19. Prayers lifted the souls and minds of many people despite the existing stressing virus. It is said in Latin that _Gaudele cum gaudentibus_ meaning that enjoy with those who enjoy. In my opinion, God through Tanzanians prayers will cover all of us in the region so long as we are attached to them. It seems, Tanzanian style is bearing fruits and interests other countries in Africa and World at large. Today, President Nana Akufo Ado has ordered the lock down meaningless and told his citizens come out and work to save the economy. At the same time, things are jumping from the pan to the fire in the US. Americans have flocked in the streets demanding the lock down orders in states to be lifted because they have badly hit them economically. In Sweden, the government has ordered people to come out and work to save the economy while taking measures against COVID-19. These are symptoms that most countries in the world will open up their economy while taking measures against COVID-19 because lockdown will no longer be a permanent solution. I think, this should be the lesson to us, especially the East African countries that whenever something bad happens we must be united and put our efforts towards the solution that works for us and serve our region.

Kwani alipotoa ushauri wa maombi watu walilalamika anaingilia wataalam? Kwani Rais naye hana washauri wa kiafya kabla ya kujitokeza na kutoa strategy mpya?Sorry to differ with you, Lakini Tanzania sio North Korea kwamba kiongozi asipoonekana hadharani au kutajwa kwenye TV basi nchi inatetemeka na watu kuulizana kuna nini. We are mature than that, kitendo cha sisi to keep our cool while the other in the region wanamalizana Kwa vita, inaonyesha ukomavu wetu.
Hivi nikuulize swali toka Trump amekuwa anasimama na kuongea na waandishi wa habari, kuna cha maana umeokota au ndio kutukana watu your fake na kusema Chinese virus. Hata huyo Kenyatta, mara ya mwisho ulimuona lini jukwaani tena anaingilia maamuzi ya madaktari na washauri wa mambo ya kiafya? Lakini huku kwetu watu wanataka wamuone Magufuli kila kona, huku anaongea mambo kuingilia wataalamu ili watu wapate cha kusema. Hao wengine sijui wakuu wa mikoa, mawaziri kila mtu anaongea to their capacity, wote hao wanawashauri wao wa mambo ya afya, iwe mkoa au wizara.
Mkuu tuache bias na cherry picking, ina maana kuwatangazia wamarekani updates za ugonjwa, cutafuta cure, kutoa relief package, kuongelea possibility ya chloroquine, kuwaambia crucial sectors za uchumi zitafunguliwa taratibu, kuongelea peak days za vifo vya corona watu wajiandae hukuzisikia ila umeona Matusi yake tu?? Are we seriousHivi nikuulize swali toka Trump amekuwa anasimama na kuongea na waandishi wa habari, kuna cha maana umeokota au ndio kutukana watu your fake na kusema Chinese virus.
mm pia nashangaa hii hali..Rais yuko safe (at least that is what he thinks).
Rais hana watu wa kumshauri, sidhani hata kama anao huwa anapokea ushauri.
Tuendelee kupambana at personal level, ila at National Level ni tatizo. Imagine hali ilivyo Dar lakini bado watu wanasafiri kwenda mikoani bila kizuizi.
Mh Zitto, matatizo yote haya yaliletwa na Kikwete kwa kuingia na majina mfukoni, mwisho wa siku akaibuka mtu ambaye hana sifa za kuwa hata Ten cell Leader, mtu huyo eti Leo ni Rais, ndo maana hali iko hivi#COVID-19: TUWAJIBISHANE
Mnamo Tarehe 28/3/2020 niliwaeleza Watanzania kuwa nimemwandikia barua Mheshimiwa Rais wa Jamhuri ya Muungano wa Tanzania kumshauri mambo makubwa 8 ili nchi yetu iweze kukabili maambukizi ya virusi vya Korona. Tarehe 4/4/2020 Mwenyekiti wa Chama cha ACT Wazalendo Taifa Maalim Seif Sharif Hamad alizungumza na Wananchi kuwataka kujihadhari na virusi vya Korona. Hadi siku Mwenyekiti anazungumza Tanzania ilikuwa na wagonjwa 20 tu. Leo Tanzania ina wagonjwa 257 na Serikali imeripoti vifo vya watu 10. Kati ya Aprili 1 na Aprili 20, maambukizi yaliyotangazwa yamefikia 1,170%.
Kama Viongozi wa Upinzani nchini kwa wiki kadhaa sasa tumekuwa tunatoa ushauri kwa Viongozi wa Serikali na kuelimisha umma kudhibiti #COVID19TZA. Tumejitahidi kuunganisha Nchi yetu dhidi ya Virusi hivi. Sasa umefika wakati wa KUWAJIBISHANA.
Wakati Nchi ikiwa katika maambukizi mtu mwenye Mamlaka ya Juu kabisa katika Nchi yetu, Rais John Pombe Joseph Magufuli haonekani kuendesha mapambano kama tunavyoona kwa mataifa jirani kama Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, Afrika Kusini nk. Mara chache ambazo Rais amejitokeza ametoa kauli zinazoonyesha kuwa COVID 19 sio tatizo na hivyo kushawishi watu kuendelea na shughuli za mikusanyiko ambazo zinakuza maambukizi. Pia tumeona Mawaziri, Wakuu wa Mikoa na baadhi ya watu wa karibu na Rais wakihamasisha mikusanyiko ya watu.
Mwalimu Julius Nyerere alitafsiri Kitabu cha Shakespeare Merchants of Venice (Mabepari wa Venice). Kundi hili la Viongozi walioendelea kushawishi Watanzania kuendelea na shughuli za mikusanyiko, Mwalimu Nyerere angewaita Mabepari wa Vifo (Merchants of Deaths). #MerchantsOfDeaths ni watu ambao wakielekezwa kutofanya matendo fulani ili kuepuka maafa wao hufanya. Pia watu wenye Mamlaka ambao wanashindwa kutumia mamlaka yao kuzuia maafa. Vile vile watu wa imani ambao wanaaminisha waumini wao mambo ambayo husababisha maafa. Wanashtakika
Kutokana na maandalizi mabovu ya Serikali kwa Watumishi wa Afya - Madaktari, Manesi, Watumishi wa Maabara - maambukizi yamesambaa miongoni mwao na hata wengine kuanza kupoteza maisha. Licha ya Serikali kukusanya mabilioni ya Fedha kutoka Sekta Binafsi na yenyewe kutotenga Bajeti Maalumu ya kupambana na Korona, watumishi walio mstari wa mbele kwenye vita wanaachwa bila vifaa (PPE). Nchi yetu ipo kwenye hatari ya kupoteza wataalamu wengi wa Afya ambao wamesomeshwa kwa gharama kubwa na kwa muda mrefu. Watumishi hawa pia wanahatarisha familia zao.
Namna Serikali ya Jamhuri ya Muungano wa Tanzania inavyokabili mlipuko wa Korona inathibitisha kauli kuwa Tanzania imekuwa na miaka 5 ya uholela, yaani 5 Years Of Incompetence. Mgawanyo wa Kazi wakati huu umekuwa;
- Naibu Waziri Afya: kuelimisha Umma maana ya Corona na kuvaa Barakoa
- Waziri wa Afya: Kutangaza Idadi ya visa vya Corona na vifo na kuelezea maamuzi mbalimbali ya Serikali
- Waziri Mkuu: Kukusanya michango ya Wadau (Serikali yenyewe haijaweka wazi Bajeti yake ya Corona
- Makamu wa Rais: Hajulikani alipo
- Rais: Kajificha Kijijini Chato huku akitaka Wananchi waendelee kwenda Kanisani na Misikitini
Hatuwezi kuendelea namna hii huku wagonjwa wanaongezeka, Watanzania wanapoteza maisha, huduma za Afya zinazidiwa na kupoteza wataalamu muhimu na uchumi unaanguka. Itabidi kuendelea kupambana na Korona huku tunawajibishana.
Namtaka Rais Magufuli afanye yafuatayo
1. Amwagize Waziri wa Fedha kupeleka Bungeni Bajeti ya Dharura kukabiliana na Korona na baada ya Bajeti hiyo Bunge lisimamishe vikao vyake mpaka Korona itakapokomeshwa nchini. Bajeti hiyo ihakikishe Wataalamu wetu wa Afya wanapata vifaa vya kuwalinda ili kupambana na Korona
2. Ahutubie Taifa mara moja na kuwataka Wananchi kuacha shughuli zao za kila siku na kwa kutumia Sheria ya Bunge kuifunga Nchi (partial lockdown). Wananchi wasaidiwe kwa mujibu wa mapendekezo tuliyoyatoa, kila kaya ipatiwe shs 300,000
3. Kama hawezi kuyafanya haya ajiondoe madarakani ili watanzania wengine wafanye hiyo kazi ya kulinda Nchi yetu.
Mwisho nawaomba Wanasheria nchini kuandaa mashtaka ya kukusudia kuua dhidi ya watu wote ambao wametoa matamko ambayo yaliwafanya wananchi waendelee na shughuli za kuambukiza virusi vya Korona.

Kwani alipotoa ushauri wa maombi watu walilalamika anaingilia wataalam? Kwani Rais naye hana washauri wa kiafya kabla ya kujitokeza na kutoa strategy mpya?
Nachosema ni kwamba kuna controversy nyingi muda huu na coordination unayosema haipo kabisa ndio maana unaona Ma RC, DC wanaamua strategy ambazo zinacontradict na bodies zingine za serikali kma wizara. Sasa nani wa kuondoa hii controversy zaidi ya Rais?
Alafu mkuu kuhusu maturity hapo sikubaliani na wewe, mara ngapi mambo hayaendi moaka Rais ajitokeze? Imagine mpaka anasolve kesi za ardhi na mwanamke kutapeliwa kiosk? Hivi zile ziara maduku duku anayoambiwa na wananchi ina maana Dc na wakurugenzi hawapo?
Ukweli ni kwamba coordination hamna na kwa nchi yetu maamuzi magumu yote yanamsubirigi Rais na ushahidi upo mwingi tu kwahiyo maturity unayosema hapa haipo kabisa otherwise kungekua na clear intergrated course of action kuliko hizi sintofahamu za sasa.
Huwezi fifisha role ya Rais nyakati kama hizi kwa kisingizio cha serikali inafanya kazi kokote, wakati unajua kabisa yeye ndio ana mamlaka ya juu zaidi kutoa maamuzi magumu na dira ya taifa katika kipindi hiki.
Mkuu Mhe. Zitto, kwenye hili, siungi mkono hoja, kwa sasa tuko katikati ya Mapambano, huu sii wakati wa kunyoosheana vidole kulaumiana, kushutumiana na kutafuta mchawi tuwajibishane. Huu ni wakati wa kusimama pamoja, stand together united as one and fight as one unified army against one common enemy.
Corona: Tusinyoosheane vidole. Kama unaweza kusaidia, please do. Usisubiri uombwe - jitokeze saidia, vinginevyo nyamaza! - JamiiForums

Mkuu hizo ndio cherry picking naziona kwako, kwani Wa kwetu hayupo election year? Naona kma una chuki binafsi na trump huoni positives yeyote ya yeye kma head of state kusimama na kutoa updates as Amiri jeshi Mkuu wakati wa crisis kama hii?. Ukisema Trump anasimama na kutoa maelezo ya ventilators, madawa na mengineo, ukumbuke mwenzako yuko kwenye election year, he needs all the coverage he could get.
Haha, ikiwa kama kigezo chako cha uwongozi ni Trump basi unanitia hofu kama siku wapinzani wakipewa nchi tutakuwa tumekwisha. Kusimama kwenye podium na kuongea haimaanishi you'll get the job done, how many time Trump ana backtrack alichokisema a day before au hata kwenye the same press conference.Mkuu hizo ndio cherry picking naziona kwako, kwani Wa kwetu hayupo election year?

Nachoona unajaribu ku undermine role ya public presence ya Rais kwenye suala kama hili, hta sep 11 Rais Bush alienda site ili kuonyesha solidarity na wamarekani katika lile janga na kuwapa uniting factor na hope kma beacon ya nchi!! U don't undermine that.
Coordination nayosema ni ya Serikali kuu to bunge to halmsahauri/RCs yaani kila mtu na kauli yake hujui lipi uchukue lipi uache. Mkuu mmoja wa mkoa anashauri magari ya Dar yasifike huko, mikoa mingine inaruhsu bado hapo hapo wa Dar anashauri wasije huku Yaani chaos!! Kwanini hakuna directive moja juu ya inter-regional commuters?. Haya swala la barakoa tu Madaktari wakasema yao, waziri la kwake na RC la kwake?? Ssa cordination iko wapi hapo??
Coordination hakuna mkuu lazima tukubaliane hapa, ndio maana sintofahamu kila sehemu. Sasa hii inaweza kuwa cleared na formal directive ya Rais kwenye press releases za kila mara kutoa updates za hili suala na kuwa na chain of command inayoeleqeka sio hii ya sasa ambapo kila mtu amegeuka health consultant

Watu mmengangania hakuna coordination, Lakini ni eneo gani hilo ambalo hakuna coordination? Gov Order inatofauti kubwa na kiongozi fulani kusimama pale na kutoa matamko ya fanya hichi, usifanye kile. Kama ungeona wagonjwa wa covid wanaanguka na kufa barabarani, au hospitali zimeelewa hakuna vitamda au dawa, au hata shughuli za kila siku hazifanyiki, chakula hakuna labda mgekuwa na sababu ya kulaumu. But the system is working. Nakumbuka Wapinzani mlikuwa mnalalamika eti rais Magufuli ana husika na kila kiti kinachofanyika nchini mpaka mnasema hukumu za mahakamani anatoa yeye, leo hii mnataka aje aingilie mambo ya kitaalamu.
Mimi nadhani wapinzani itabidi msema ukweli maana hakuna namna nyingine, you guys mme-miss Magufuli, amekaa mbali sasa hakuna tena punching bag kama mliozowea.
Ukitaka kutushauri watanzania au hata Serikali, tueleze mshauri wako wa mambo ya afya ni nani? Corona siyo sera ya chama ni jambo la kitaalamu. Huwezi kuamka unaanza kuishauri serikali. Taarifa za serikali zinatolewa na wizara ya afya. wewe unatoa ushauri ukitegemea TV na internet; yale unayosikia huko nawe unayaleta huku.#COVID-19: TUWAJIBISHANE

Msikilize Rais wako anasema Fumigation haisaidii ilihali wizara ilisema inasaidia. Niliposema hakuna coordination ulibisha now what's this mkuu?. Je bado hujaona umuhimu wa Rais kujitokeza na kufita controversy kama hii??
2. Btw nmejitahidi sana kutokuwa partisan kwenye mjadala wetu sasa hii ya kusema wapinzani cjui madaraka inatoka wapi? Mijadala mingi ya JF inaharibiwa na hii issue ya uchama, hivi hatuwezi jadili mada bila kunyoosheana vidole kuwa ww ni CCM au upinzani?
3. Kuhusu trump pengine una chuki naye binafsi ndio maana huwezi ona zuri kwake. Tukiwa na bias opinion namna hii hatuwezi chukua positives za wenzetu licha ya mapungufu yao lukuki.
1. Issue ya partisanship kwenye mjadala wetu umetoka wapi? Yaani tujaribu kuwa neutral kwenye mijadala ya kitaifa. Ukijibu kwa bias kwamba mimi ni mpinzani au CCM hutoweza kuwa rational kabisa kwenye mjadala ndio maana hutoona naitaja ccm kokote hapa so tuzingatie hilo.Sasa ikiwa waziri mkuu alipewa maelekezo na maelekezo yakatekelezwa hapo wewe huoni kama kuna coordination? mara ya mwisho uliona lini fumigation inafanywa na idara yoyote ya serikali kuu au serikali za mitaa?
Kila nchi duniani inapita kwenye hili janga kwa kujaribu mbinu mbali mbali. Kama unafuatilia trend ya huu ugonjwa duniani utaona hakuna nchi inatumia mbinu moja au kutegemea mtu mmoja kupambana na huu ugonjwa. Kuna report imetoka juzi inasema hata ventilators sio chombo cha uhakika kupambana na Corona, na unaweza kuongeza uwezekano wa mtu kufa kuliko kumsaidia kupumua.
Dhana ya upinzani vs serikali, imejengwa zaidi na wanaojiita wapinzani. Kwa miaka mitano sasa nguvu kubwa imetumika kuweka utengamano hata kwenye mambo muhimu ya kitaifa. Hata Lissu aliulizwa kwenye Hardtalk, wewe ukiwa kama kiongozi wa upinzani kwanini unachochea kuni na kuleta taharuki kwa wananchi wakati ulitakiwa uwe ni kiongozi wa kuleta matumaini na kutoa watu hofu? Mifano ni mingi tu ambayo viongozi wa upinzani wanashindwa kuwa Non-partisan, tukiwaabia wananchi kuwa nchi ina chakula cha kutosha siku tatu tu, hapo tunawaambia wanachi nini? waanze punic buying na kuleta upungufu wa chakula?
1. Issue ya partisanship kwenye mjadala wetu umetoka wapi? Yaani tujaribu kuwa neutral kwenye mijadala ya kitaifa. Ukijibu kwa bias kwamba mimi ni mpinzani au CCM hutoweza kuwa rational kabisa kwenye mjadala ndio maana hutoona naitaja ccm kokote hapa so tuzingatie hilo.
2. Mkuu mifano ya coordination mbona mingi sana wewe umesema Rais anatoa directives hta akiwa huko chato na kwamba sio mpaka awe public. Nafikiti umesikia analalamika kwanini Data za waliopona hazitangazwi, anadai wamepona 100 ila waziri mkuu kasema ni 11 pekee sasa coordination iko wapi? Mkuu mbona unatetea kitu cha wazi kabisa? Contraction za ma-RC wa mikoa ile 3 na miongozo ya naibu waziri wa afya je huoni coordination hakuna kwenye mikakati?
