Albinos in Tanzania have become targets for body-snatchers seeking to sell them to witch doctors

An albino has been elected as an MP in Tanzania for the first time.
"This win is a victory not only for me but also for all the albinos in this country," Salum Khalfani Bar'wani, from the opposition Cuf party, told the BBC.
Albinos have suffered widespread persecution in Tanzania, where witch doctors say magic potions made with albino body parts can bring good luck.
The government has been campaigning against the discrimination, and an albino MP was appointed two years ago.
But Al-Shymaa Kway-Geer was nominated by the president who is able to appoint 10 unelected members of parliament.
Over the past few years dozens of albinos have been killed in Tanzania, targets of body-snatchers, and the killings have spread to neighbouring Burundi.
In August a court in Tanzania sentenced a Kenyan to 17 years in jail on charges of trying to sell an albino person.
'Joy'

I am so touched that this is the first time in the electoral history of this country for an albino to be elected by the people "
End Quote Salum Khalfani Bar'wani
Mr Bar'wani said he was grateful to the constituents in Lindi Urban, in the remote south-east of the country, for electing him.
"My joy has no end," he told the BBC Swahili Service.
"The people of Lindi have used their wisdom and have appreciated clearly that albinos are capable.
"I am so touched that this is the first time in the electoral history of this country for an albino to be elected by the people in a popular contest to be their representative in parliament - and not through sympathy votes or decisions."
He said his success also showed people in Lindi where tired of the leadership of the ruling CCM party.
So far five cabinet ministers from the ruling party have lost their seats to the opposition in the elections.
Incumbent President Jakaya Kikwete is expected to win the presidential poll, although he faces a strong challenge from former priest Willibrod Slaa and university professor Ibrahim Lipumba, among six opposition candidates.
On Monday, opposition supporters held protests in several parts of the country at the slow pace of announcing the result of Sunday's general election.

namkumbuka mh Baruani.kwani niliwahi kukaa nae kwa muda usiopungua masaa 2 pale jijini dar mara baada ya uchaguzi wa 2005,neno alilo niambia ni kwamba 'vilema ni wenge ila hawaitwi 'kwa majina yao mfano anayevaa miwani(asieona vizuri) but inashangaza kuona yeye akiitwa albino . ni mpambanaji ambaye alijipanga kuchukua jimbo kuanzia siku nyingi.hongera zake kwa wingi.
 
mie huwa nasemaga, kila binadamu ana mapungufu, mengine ni challenging zaidi na mengine angalao kidogo.
Mtazamo juu ya upungufu wa maumbile yako pamoja na mtazamo wa watu wanaokuzunguka utotoni jumlisha na mazingira yaliyokuzunguka ndio yatakujenga au kukubomoa.
wengine wanakuwa wanene tu, na wanachanganyikiwa hadi wanajiua, kwa depression na kuona wanatengwa. Wengine hawana mikono wala miguu ila wanaishi kwa furaha na kuwa na umuhimu kwa jamii.
Huyu ndugu simjui, ila mtazamo wake wa maisha na changamoto unanipa moyo.
Ila siku hizi kuna walemavu wengi tu hawajinyanyapai. Wanakubali kuwa ni 'special, with special needs' lakini ni raia kama kawaida.
Tunapopigania haki kwa wenya mapungufu ya viungo si kwa kuwasaidia kama masikini. Ni haki yao ya kimsingi.
kama tunavyogombania haki nyingine zozote ambazo si lazima kila mtu azipate, mfano, wanawake, watoto, waalimu, nk.
Mie huwa napinga viti maalum, hasa vya wanawake na walemavu.
 
hongera muheshimiwa........................mtwara mjifunze kutoka lindi tunataka mabadiliko.
