<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">A journalist yesterday became the victim of
confrontation between the Police Force and Chama cha Demokrasia na Maendeleo (CHADEMA)
when he was hit by a gas canister.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
According to ITV/Radio One journalist, Mr Renatus Mutabuzi, Mr David Mwangosi,
a journalist with Channel Ten, died at Nyololo Village in Mufindi South, as
police lobbed teargas canisters to disperse a group of Chadema supporters who
were witnessing the opening of a party branch office at the village.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
According to Radio One broadcasts yesterday evening, before starting the use of
force, the police ordered people who were at the area to disperse.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
“This was after Chadema earlier launched a branch office in another village.
But when they arrived at Nyololo, the police asked people to disperse because
rallies and demonstrations had been banned.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
“Police started to use teargas canisters, one of which hit the Channel Ten
journalist who was about 100 metres from the new Chadema office where people
had gathered to witness the launch. His stomach was ripped open and I believe
that he died on the spot,” said Mr Mutabuzi when filing the report.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
When Radio One contacted the Iringa regional police commander, Mr Michael
Kamuhanda, the police boss declined to comment on grounds that he was not in a
good position to give a statement.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
“I am travelling, please call me later... I don’t have enough information,” he
said and hung up on the inquisitive journalist.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
Mr Mwangosi becomes the second person to be killed in conflicts pitting the
Police Force and the opposition party in the space of two weeks. On August 27,
one Ally Zona was killed in Morogoro as police dispersed Chadema supporters who
were gearing up for a demonstrations.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
Earlier in the day, Chadema vowed nothing would stop from conducting political
activities despite a police order that such business should wait until the
conclusion of the national population and housing census.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
But Chadema cried foul, claiming that the police move was in contravention of
the agreement reached one week ago to the effect that the party should suspend
its rallies to pave the way for the completion of crucial national exercise.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
The party said it sent an alert to the international community over what it
termed State interference with the opposition party’s right of assembly and
freedom to conduct political activities.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
But with the police order that no political activity would be carried out until
the census, which has been pushed back for a week, is over, Chadema secretary
general Willibrod Slaa told reporters here that his party was now fed up with
police interference and have vowed to continue with their activities with or
without police blessings.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
“We are going to conduct our rallies as planned, come what may... if they want
to kill us, let them go ahead and kill us,” he said.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
Chadema had planned to kick of its Movement for Change (M4C) campaign at
Mwembetogwa grounds yesterday after postponing it for five days following a
plea by the Inspector General of Police Said Mwema.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
However, when the earlier census timetable ended on Saturday, the National
Bureau of Statistics (NBS) announced an extension of the exercise in order to
ensure all Tanzanians are counted.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
Iringa regional police commander Michael Kamuhanda announced the ban only few
hours before the first Chadema rally was to take place. He warned the party’s
supporters against acting against the order, as “police will stop at nothing to
ensure that the order is observed, willingly or by force.”</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
“The police has stopped all political and social public activities in the
region... therefore, no rally or demonstration will be allowed until census is
completed,” said Mr Kamuhanda.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
He said the police made the decision following a request by the national census
commissioner.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
“This is an order and the police won’t entertain any argument in this issue. We
only expect that people obey the order so that we avoid the use of force,” he
warned, adding:</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
“If Chadema disobeys this order, we will definitely use everything within our
ability to enforce it. We are well prepared and ready to ensure that the order
is observed... it is better for Chadema realise this!”</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
But speaking after receiving the police order, the M4C operation commander in
Chadema, Mr Benson Kigaila, said his party was amazed that the police have been
constantly interfering with the party’s activities.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
“Let me remind you in case you have forgotten. In Morogoro, the police banned
our rallies because of the census. They then outlawed our demonstrations
because ostensibly because of the tiny roads in Morogoro. Just imagine, how
does Morogoro roads differ with others in the country?” he questioned.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
“We planned to begin our meetings in Iringa on August 28 but we were forced to
postpone them following a plea from the IGP. We agreed to show our patriotism
but today we are being blocked again; when are we going to get the opportunity
to practice politics freely?” question Mr Kigaila.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
For his part, Dr Slaa said that police have now gone too far in “their bid to
frustrate opposition party activities.”</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
“When I was informed that our meetings in Iringa have also been banned, I
phoned IGP Mwema and reminded him of our agreement. He told me that he was in
Tanga and I should give him time to consult and he would call back, but he
never did. In the evening, I sent him a text message and later he called m and
insisted that our activities in Iringa have to stop,” he told reporters.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
Dr Slaa said he is certain the police are frustrating Chadema at the behest of
some powers elsewhere who are worried of the impact of the party’s
Movement for Change.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
 </span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
“One of the obligation of a political party, according to our laws, is to reach
out to the masses and increase the number of its followers. If Chadema is
curtailed from doing so, do they want it to die?” he asked.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
He said through the party’s foreign directorate, it has written to the
international community, notifying it on how the State is suppressing democracy
and human rights.</span><br /><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; line-height: 115%;">
“People are being denied their rights. This is against the law... Chadema has
tolerated this for too long and we have reached a point where we cannot stand
it anymore. We have reached the threshold of our patience... if they want to
shoot us let them shoot because Chadema is not the property of Dr Slaa, it is a
party belonging to Tanzanians,” he said.</span></span></div>

TTCF joined with global tobacco control community

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Tanzania Tobacco Control Forum (TTCF) joins the rest of the global tobacco control community to congratulate the Australian high court for ruling in favour of the “Plain packaging law” confirming the Australian Government’s legal right to proceed with mandatory plain packaging of tobacco. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">From 1st December 2012, all cigarettes packaging in Australia will not be allowed to have tobacco company logos and brand imagery. Instead, they will be sold in brown coloured boxes with the brand names in standard text; the only imaging allowed will be photos of people suffering from diseases caused by tobacco use.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The purpose of the legislation is to prevent youth from starting smoking by reducing the appeal of tobacco packaging. Research shows that young people ‘like’ regular packs and found plain packaging ‘boring’ and ‘less trendy’. They reported that they were less likely to start smoking if all cigarettes were sold in plain packs.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Plain packaging has several other benefits. It will remove the ability of the cigarette companies to falsely imply that some brands like ‘light’ or ‘low tar’ are less harmful than regular cigarettes. It will also enhance the effectiveness of health warnings. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The new law will now make it illegal, for example, for the cigarette manufacturers to market cigarettes in ‘slim’ packages to women to promote the belief that smoking is a way to stay thin and control weight.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The tobacco companies have opposed plain packaging more ferociously than any other tobacco control measure, because they know that plain packaging would have a major impact on smoking in Australia - and in the other countries that might follow Australia’s lead.   </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The cigarette companies hate nothing more than laws that restrict its ability to sell more cigarettes and more cigarette sales, mean more sickness and more deaths; governments have a duty to act to reduce these harms.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This is a second blow in quick succession from the court’s to the tobacco industry’s view that cigarettes are ‘legal’ and that it has a right to market this deadly addiction as though they were selling wholesome apples and oranges.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Last week, the Constitutional Court in South Africa denied British American Tobacco SA leave to appeal against a Supreme Court of Appeal (SCA) ruling that a ban on the advertising and promotion of tobacco products under the Tobacco Products Control Act was “reasonable and justifiable in an open and democratic society”.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The judgments from Australia and South Africa show that tobacco control laws are fair, responsible and based on a solid legal and scientific platform. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Article 11 of the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control (FCTC), the world’s first public health treaty, recommends plain packaging of tobacco products to reduce demand for tobacco products. The Convention requires Parties to consider adopting measure to restrict the use of logos, colours, brand images or promotional information on packaging other than brand names and product names displayed in a standard colour and font style. Several countries around the world including New Zealand and United Kingdom are already planning to adopt plain packaging of tobacco products. Tanzania ratified the FCTC in April 2007; however, to-date, the Tobacco Products (Regulation) Act, 2003 (TPRA, 2003) is yet to confirm to the requirements of the FCTC. Lack of an effective law has resulted into increased tobacco use, particularly among the youth who are most vulnerable to tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">In addition, research carried out at Muhimbili National Hospital and Ocean Road Cancer Institute indicated that, the government spends more than USD 30m per year to attempt treatment of tobacco-related cancers, yet more than 3,000 people die annually from these diseases. Other diseases that are tobacco-related include heart disease and stroke, diabetes, stomach ulcers, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases and impotence. Globally, tobacco kills nearly six million smokers each year and another 600,000 nonsmokers who are exposed to second-hand smoke. Unless urgent action is taken, the annual death toll could rise to more than eight million by 2030, 80% of which will be from low and middle income countries including Tanzania. TTCF urges the government to enact a legislation that is FCTC-compliant, in order to protect current and future generations from the devastating consequences of tobacco smoke. </span></div>
