Mjadala wa Mafuta na Suala la Muungano

[Junius]

Zanzibar government yesterday reiterated its stand on the issue of oil and natural gas insisting that the natural resources would remain a preserve of the Isles government.

Speaking at the on-going Zanzibar House of Representatives session here, the Minister for Water, Energy and Land, Mansour Yussuf Himid said the decision to remove oil and natural gas from the list of union matters was a unanimous decision by the Isles government and would therefore not be reversed.

Responding to questions from legislators, Himid for the first time in history, CCM and CUF legislators had joined ranks and spoke as one voice defending the issue of oil and natural gas that it should remain exclusive for Zanzibar.
He said the government was working on the final details of the energy policy scheduled to be presented in the next House meeting slated for January next year.

The Minister also said operational laws and regulations for the exploration and exploitation of oil would be drafted shortly.

According to Himid preparations include official communication between the ministry of energy and that of Education and Vocational Training in Zanzibar to identify people who would pursue the related oil production studies abroad.

"I would like to assure you that selection of applicants will be accomplished on merit and legislators have nothing to worry about. We have identified a number of potential sponsors for these students," the minister explained.
The minister said an Arab country, which he did not disclose, had agreed to support oil exploration and drilling in Zanzibar, adding, that a comprehensive agreement to that effect would be reached.

Earlier, the representative for Kwahani constituency, Ali Suleiman Ali demanded government explanation on measures taken to prepare the energy policy.

Meanwhile, the deputy minister for Water, Energy and Land, Tafana Kassim Mzee told the House that explorations carried out in 1952 through 1964 by BP and Shell in Pemba and Unguja did not confirm availability of oil and natural gas in all six deep wells dug in Zanzibar.

Responding to a question by Ali Denge Makame, representative for Amani constituency, the deputy minister said: "Let me clarify on this that no place in Zanzibar has been confirmed to have oil and natural gas for sure except that seismic research findings indicate the possibility of having the reserves in the isles.

In the last session of the national Assembly the issue of oil in Zanzibar sparked a heated debate with some of the legislators using strong words which prompted formation of a special elders' team by CCM National Executive Committee under the chairmanship of former president, Ali Hassan Mwinyi set to hold talks with Zanzibar representatives to iron out the differences.

However, President Jakaya Kikwete commenting on the controversial issue of oil and natural gas in Zanzibar recently, said it was negotiable and there was no reason to start quarreling for something whose existence was yet to be confirmed.

MWANASHERIA Mkuu wa Serikali, Jaji Fredrick Werema, amesema mafuta hayawezi kuondolewa katika orodha ya mambo ya Muungano, kama ilivyotamkwa na Rais Jakaya Kikwete na Amani Abeid Karume.

Kauli hiyo imekuja huku kukiwa na shinikizo la Wazanzibari kutaka mafuta, yaondolewe katika orodha ya mambo ya chombo hicho.

Jaji Werema amesema hakuna jambo lililoko juu ya sheria na kwa msingi huo, mafuta bado yako katika orodha ya Muungano hadi hapo mchakato utakapopitia hatua zote muhimu.

Mwanasheria huyo alizitaja hatua zinazopaswa kufikiwa kuwa ni pamoja na kupitia katika chama kinachongoza serikali ambacho kitatoa mapendekezo na kuingiza katika mjadala wa Bunge.

Mwanasheria Mkuu wa Serikali aliyasema hayo jana bungeni, alipokuwa akijibu swali la nyongeza la Mohamed Rajabu Soud (Jang'ombe-CCM),aliyetaka tamko serikali kuhusu kauli za viongozi wawili hao mafuta yataondolewa katika orodha ya Muungano kabla ya kufikishwa bungeni.

"Mambo hayo hayategemei wala hayaangalii ukubwa wa kambale wala sharubu zake, ni lazima yafikishwe katika Bunge kwa kuwa ni masuala ya kisheria na yatafika bungeni baada ya mchakato kupitia kwenye vyama," alisema Werema.

Chama cha Wananchi (CUF) kimesema kimeshangazwa na Serikali ya Jamhuri ya Muungano kuwa wazito katika kuliondoa suala la mafuta na gesi asilia katika orodha ya mambo ya Muungano, wakati Serikali ya Mapinduzi Zanzibar imeshaamua kuliondoa suala hilo.

Hayo yameelezwa na Naibu Katibu Mkuu wa chama hicho, Ismail Jussa Ladhu, katika mkutano wa kukabidhi milango ya vyuma itakayowekwa katika nyumba za maendeleo Michezani kwa ajili ya kuzilinda nyumba hizo na wahalifu.

Alisema Serikali ya Mapinduzi Zanzibar iliamua suala la mafuta na gesi asilia kuliondoa katika mambo ya Muungano baada ya kupata baraka za wajumbe wa Baraza la Wawakilishi kutoka vyama vya CCM na CUF.

"Inashangza serikali ya Muungano hadi sasa wamekuwa wazito kuwasilisha muswada wa sheria wa kulindoa suala la mafuta na gesi asilia katika orodha ya mambo ya Muungano," alisema Jussa ambaye pia ni Mwakilishi wa Mji Mkongwe.

Zitto: Mafuta kuwa suala la Muungano tulikosea

Mei 2012

- Kila upande wa Muungano uchimbe Mafuta na Gesi Asili yake na Mapato yawe ya Serikali ya upande husika
- Shughuli za Utafutaji kwenye vitalu vyenye mgogoro ziendelee mara moja
- Zanzibar ianzishe Shirika lake la Mafuta (PetroZan)
- Katiba mpya itofautishe utafutaji (upstream) na Biashara (uchimbaji, midstream na downstream)

[Herbalist Dr MziziMkavu]

Sasa hilo suala la mafuta kuwepo kwa zanzibar limehusiana na nini na swala la muungano? Mbona hamsemi ukweli? Kuhusu muungano uliwekwa baina ya baba wa taifa mwalim nyerer na mzee karume linahusiana na nini na suala la mafuta? Au kulikuwepo mafuta wakati wa muungano wa tanganyika na unguja? Mulkuwepo wakati mzee karume na mwalimu nyerere walipo tia saini mkataba wa muungano?

Mbona hamsemi ukweli wa mambo? Mbona huku bara kuna almasi kule shinyanga dhahabu, madini ya kila aina mbona hamsemi hayo pia yapo kwenye huo muungano? Au watu wa zanzibar wananufaika na nini kuhusu hayo madini yaliyokuwepo huko tanzania bara? Hapo bara mafuta pia yapo kwenye visiwa vya songosongo na pale mafia je wazanzibar waseme pia mafuta yaliyokuwepo bara yatiwe kwenye huo muungano?

Msiangalie upande mmoja angalieni kila upande mafuta ya unguja hayausiani na muungano wa tanganyika na unguja mkae mukijuwa asanteni

Kuna huyo waziri mtata himid nafikiri ni shemeji yake presdaa karume hafai hata kidogo, amekuwa mstari wa mbele kulilia mafuta ambayo ni ya kusadikika.nchi yenyewe imejaa laana mafuta yatatoka wapi?kazi yake kila kukicha anachochea vurugu kupitia mafuta wakati nchi ikichafuka yeye na karume watakimbilia ughaibuni, to hell with them!

 

[MLEKWA]

Kwa wssiojua Mafuta ni ajenda ya 2010 ya uchaguzi Watanganyika waoneeni huruma CCM Zanzibar wkani hawana walichofanya miaka kumi iliopita ila sasa hivi ni kuonesha na wao ni watetezi wa haki za Zanzibar kwenye Muungano, siasa za leo za Zanzibar ukiwa hutetei Maslahi ya Zanzibar basi wewe hurudi Bungeni kwa hiyo wana CCM wengi washaliona hilo na wanajua Kamati ya MZee mwinyi inakuja visiwani na kuwafumba mdomo CCM kwa hiyo wana anza kutoa makucha yao kabla ya Mzee Ruksa kutua visiwani.
