The 500 Influential Tanzanians under 45yrs who are changing the world

The 500 Influential Tanzanians under 45yrs who are changing the world

Looks weird. What is is the motive for this thread? Who sanctioned this thread? How does it help in solving the troubles/woes facing the nation? To me this looks kinda poo.


[QQUOTE=Inconvenient Truths;11078395]I wish to set the record straight by stating that, Influence is not the same as Power and it’s certainly NOT about how much money any one have.

In addition, it’s not about anyone who shouts loudest , or wields the most clout in a negotiation — and its effects can be deep, widespread and long-lasting.

In this day and age inside and outside our beloved country of Tanzania (Tanganyika & Zanzibar) and well as those in the diaspora, there are myriad influences at work on all of us every day: someone, somewhere will be trying to shape our choices, from the type of music we listen to, to how we vote.

Some of these individuals are visible and some are hidden, but yet they influence us directly or indirectly, regardless of their politics, race, religion, gender or otherwise, they still influence us: bloggers, sports people, inventors, writers, even politicians what we love to hate so much here on Jamiiforums whose dedication in their chosen field is an inspiration to this nation of 49 million people and beyond.

The criteria will be simple:

1.Each nominated individual must/has demonstrated outstanding qualities of influence, inspiration and achievement

2.For politician to make it into JF POWER 500 under 45 years they need to be making radical waves

3.For business figure to be included they need to have done something significant


The idea is to reveal some key 500 INFLUENTIAL TANZANIANS UNDER 40yrs behind the scenes who names may be unknown to JF members or readers but whose opinions and decisions can have a direct effect on almost every aspect of our lives by giving us fresh stimulus to our thinking and lead by example as they show us exceptional talent, unswerving dedication and sheer hard work can achieve. We need a list that will paint a portrait of dynamic and confident individuals why are defying all sorts of stereotypes and actively reshaping the status quo how and abroad.

NOTE: one nominated person per post and state why you have nominated the individual

MODS/ADMIN. Kindly assist on removing posts that just gave names without bio or reason why they are nominated.

Ndugu January Yusuph Makamba is the new Member of Parliament (MP) for Bumbuli constituency in the Tanzanian National Assembly (The Bunge). He sailed through unopposed in the October 31, 2010 general elections, representing the ruling party Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) ticket. He won the August 1st primary election within CCM with a margin of 80.11% against 8 other contestants.
Before running for Bumbuli parliamentary seat, January was Aide to Tanzanian President Hon. Jakaya Kikwete for 5 years since 2005.



Born in January 28, 1974, January obtained his primary education from various schools across Tanzania, completing his studies at Masiwani Primary School in Tanga. He did his O-level secondary school in Handeni and at Galanos in Tanga. He further pursued his A-levels at Forest Hills in Morogoro.
January never imagined himself pursuing a political career. As a young secondary school student he aspired to be a doctor or perhaps engage in a career in business. This all changed during a gap year before university when he spent time in Kigoma, in the northwest of Tanzania. The year was 1994 and the Rwandan genocide was at its most murderous phase, forcing a huge influx of refugees into Tanzania. While in Kigoma, January got a job in the refugee camps, first as a Registration Clerk and later as an Assistant Camp Manager for the second biggest camp in Kigoma with 120,000 refugees, known to its residents as Mtabila II. Witnessing the extraordinary daily suffering of human beings in the camps left an indelible mark on the young January, and from then on he made a promise to himself that he will dedicate his life to conflict resolution, to ensure that such untold suffering never happens again.



With that in mind, January attended St. John’s University, a small catholic school in Minnesota, USA, majoring in Peace and Conflict Studies. As a sophomore, he won the Upper Midwest International Human Rights Fellowship organized by the University of Minnesota Human Rights Center. The fellowship funded his internship and research on refugees’ protection at United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) Field Office in Kasulu, Kigoma. After graduating in 2000, he became a Research Assistant at the Carter Center, an institute founded by former U.S. President Jimmy Carter, and housing the Jimmy Carter Presidential Library, out of Atlanta, Georgia. As part of the fellowship, in 2002 he spent time in Sierra Leone with the election monitoring team, an experience that deepened his desire to understand issues of democracy and governance and the nature of war and the pursuit of peace.



After completing his assignment at the Carter Center, he enrolled for a Master of Science degree in Conflict Analysis and Resolution at George Mason University in Virginia. After graduating in 2004, January returned to Tanzania and joined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as a Foreign Service Officer (Grade II), where he teamed up with then Foreign Minister Jakaya Kikwete. He worked closely with him in the regional peace negotiations that Tanzania was involved in at the time. After the latter ran for president in 2005, January joined him on the campaign trail, traveling with the candidate to every district in the country. The experience made January realize that perhaps public service was his calling and when candidate Jakaya Kikwete was elected President, January joined him at State House as one of his appointed senior aides and speechwriter.
In that capacity, January has also occasionally acted as a personal envoy of the President to various sections of the society, particularly the urban youth. As aide to the President, he has attended Cabinet meetings, as well as National Executive Committee (NEC) meetings, the top decision making body of the ruling party CCM as an observer. He has widely traveled, inside the country and globally, along the way gaining knowledge on leadership, development plans and policy making, as well as in national and international politics.



January has been involved with CCM as a “young pioneer” in primary school and later as a member of CCM Youth Wing since 1989 while in secondary school. He has been a member of National CCM Youth League Governing Council since May 2010. He was recently appointed a Director of the Board at the Tea Board of Tanzania (TBT).
January is an avid reader and author of one book and several opinion articles. He is married and has two children.

huu utumwa hatima yake lini????

Ebu weka kiswahili tuanze upya

Hebu tuendeleze list, badala ya criticism, tungeweka wale tunaodhani ni influential, na kama hatuna basi tusizuie wengine kutoa wanachodhani kinafaa

at the end of day, list itazidi 50 na tutaweza kuwapata the desired 50 out of a longer list

Brief Educational History I was born in Bukoba town, the capital of Kagera Region, northwest part of Tanzania bordering Uganda. The town is a port on Lake Victoria (also locally, known as Nyanza or Lweru). It is the largest lake in Africa. My home village is Katoma, just 8 km from Bukoba town on the Bukoba-Kampala highway.
I attended Rwemishasha Primary School, which is situated in Rwamishenye, one of the suburbs of Bukoba town. Then I joined Bukoba Secondary School, which is located in the center of Bukoba Town. After my O-Level Education, I joined Moshi Secondary School for my A-Level (High School)Education. The school is located in the outskirts of the beautiful town of Moshi, the capital of Kilimanjaro Region. The town is strategicaly situated on the foot of the majesty Kilimanjaro mountain, the tallest peak in Africa popularly known as the "Roof of Africa". While in Moshi, I was blessed to see the rare "snow" in the tropical area throughout the year! Snow at one of the peaks of Kilimanjaro, known as Kibo, never melt all year round.
After my A-Level education, I joined the National Service Camp in Mafinga, Iringa Region for a one year compulsory service. After my one year service, I went straight to the University of Dar-Es-Salaam for my undergraduate studies in the Faculty of Engineering with the aim of specializing in Civil Engineering.
After successful completion of my BSc (Eng.) degree, I worked for a short time as an Assistant Executive Engineer for Arumeru District Council in Arusha Region. Then I went back to the University of Dar-Es-Salaam where I worked as a Development Engineer in the Department of Civil Engineering whereby I enrolled and successfully obtained my MSc (Eng.) degree. Then I joined Kansas State University in Manhattan, Kansas, USA for PhD studies in Transportation Engineering. After I successfully finished my PhD studies at Kansas State University, I stayed for two months as a Research Associate and then joined URS Corporation, a consulting company as a Transportation Engineer. I am working with the Tallahassee, Florida office.
