Baada ya Tanzania kuishinda Kenya katika mradi wa bomba la mafuta ya Uganda gazeti la "The East African" ambalo lilikuwa kinara wa propaganda dhidi ya maslahi ya Tanzania katika mradi limeibuka na sakata la mgogoro wa ziwa nyasa kama habari kuu ????.
Ni ajabu gazeti lililojipachika jina la Afrika mashariki limekuwa likiegemea na kutetea maslahi ya Kenya dhidi ya mataifa mengine ya Afrika mashariki.Gazeti hili lilikuwa kinara wa kutangaza habari za CoW kila mara na kusifia miradi mingi iliyokusudiwa kuanzishwa chini ya ushirika wa nchi tatu Kenya,Uganda na Rwanda ikiwemo visa ya pamoja,free movement of labour na mradi wa LAPPSET na nk.
Miradi yote hii ilikuwa na lengo la kuiadabisha Tanzania baada ya kukataa kuingiza ardhi katika mkataba wa EAC. Bahati nzuri Uganda na Rwanda zimezinduka usingizini na kuamua kuhamisha baadhi ya miradi Tanzania kama ujenzi wa bomba la mafuta ya Uganda na Rwanda kushirikiana na Tanzania katika ujenzi wa reli SGR ambayo utazidisha matumizi ya Bandari ya Dar na kuiweka kando bandari ya Mombasa.
Nchi ya Kenya imeambulia kichapo kikubwa huku serekali ya Jubilee ikielekea katika uchaguzi mkuu mwakani na kuiacha Tanzania ikijinyakulia miradi mikubwa ambayo itaongeza ajira, fedha za kigeni na ukuaji uchumi katika eneo hili la EA na kuiacha Kenya ikipoteza ushawishi wake katika sekta za usafirishaji na uchumi katika mapana yake.
Mungu ibariki Tanzania Mungu ibariki Afrika.

Tanzania is deploying three ships on Lake Nyasa, also known as Lake Malawi, despite an ongoing territorial dispute with Malawi over the lake. The deployment could jeopardise the mediation process.
Malawi, which lies to the west of Africa’s third largest lake, claims to own the entire lake, while Tanzania, to the east, maintains it owns half of the northern area — following a simmering animosity between the two countries.
The Tanzania Ports Authority (TPA) said the first 350-tonne passenger-cargo ship, which is part of a $12.3 million project, will start operating on Lake Nyasa in August this year.
Itungi-Kyela port manager Percival Salama said Songoro Marine Transport Ltd — which is the project’s contractor — is finalising construction of the passenger vessel.
Technical director of Songoro Maritime Transport Saleh Songoro said the ship is being constructed in Kyela, with technical assistance from ship building company APT Global Marine Services of Dubai. The multipurpose ship will have a capacity for carrying 350 tonnes of cargo and 193 passengers.
The other two cargo barges with a capacity to carry 1,300 tonnes of cargo each, will be constructed and commissioned between August and October 2017.
Mbeya Regional Commissioner Amos Makalla said the ships will boost Tanzania’s marine transport. “The ships will transport luggage and passengers from Mbeya, Njombe, Ruvuma, and neighbouring countries of Zambia, Mozambique, and Malawi itself,” said Mr Makalla.
Tanzania and Malawi are currently waiting to hold another round of mediation talks, which were stalled for two years as the two countries held general elections.
Deployment of the ships could frustrate the talks over ownership of the lake.
“Malawi could be angered by the move, but Tanzania is deploying ships because it believes half of the lake belongs to it,” said senior lecturer at the Institute of Finance Management Abdallah Saqware.
In June 2013, when Tanzania revealed plans to deploy vessels on Lake Nyasa, Malawi protested, warning that the deployment of ships would threaten the ongoing mediation efforts to resolve the long-standing border dispute.
