After Vodacom Tanzania sold its 1,149 telecoms towers to Helios Towers Tanzania for about $ 75 million, the Helios Towers footprint in Africa will now rise to around 4,700 owned towers.

According to the purchase agreement, Vodacom will get a 25 percent stake in Helios. Millicom has a similar arrangement.

The towers company, which has already completed a similar deal with Millicom, will also commit to building more towers and both Millicom and Vodacom will be able to utilise the combined networks.

Chuck Green, chief executive of Helios Africa, said that there were a number of deals in the pipeline, underscoring the interest among the region’s mobile operators to strike partnership agreements with companies such as Helios as well as rivals IHS and America Towers. He said that in total there were about 18,000 towers that could be acquired in the next year, representing deals valued at about $ 2 billion.

Helios had adequate financial resource to cover the Tanzanian transaction, according to the group, and at least one other acquisition. The group has raised money through private equity groups in the past, although it could also consider raising money through a public listing in the future depending on the relative costs of capital to fund future deals.

After the acquisition, HTA will be providing close to 2,700 points of service to Vodacom and affiliates across Africa.

The deal will expand Helios Towers Africa’s tower coverage in Africa to 4,700 owned towers in Ghana, Tanzania and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

HTA, which is backed by a range of private equity groups such as Quantum Strategic, the fund managed by Soros Partners, Lord Rothschild’s RIT Capital Partners and Albright Capital Management, retains overall control of the Tanzanian business.

How local engineers can benefit from Inala Technology

      Recently i just came from a trip that took me three weeks to over six regions of Tanzania.I went to Morogoro,Dodoma,Iringa,Mbeya,Ruvuma and Njombe region.The main reason of the project was to upgrade rectifier modules in Helios owned Tigo telecom sites around those regions.

Field Engineer installing Inala generator alarms,generally within the generator Inala is monitoring Fuel consumption as well as general fuel management,Door alarms,Generator run alarms,Generator on load alarms,Mains on load alarms ,utility grid monitoring and Generator remote start/stop as well as generator remote reset. 

Field Engineer Installing Utility meter that is connected to Inala RMS for monitoring utility grid

This project has to do with the site Asset Management System (SAM). Inala SAM is the system that enables monitoring of cell site remotely using a computer aided server direct from the Remote Management System (RMS) which is installed at the cell site .


A Battery current probe measures the current by a principle of no physical contact ,It works like a Cramp meter that measures current without physical contact,it has an allow ,when connected to the positive cable the arrow should point in the direction of the battery and viceversa when connected to negative cable.



Inala RMS after installation



The Base transmission system  is a piece of equipment that facilitates wireless communication between user equipment (UE) and a network. UEs are devices like  mobile phones (handsets),  WLL phones,  computers with wireless internet connectivity,  WiFi and  WiMAX devices and others. The network can be that of any of the wireless communication technologies like  GSM,CDMA Wireless local loop,  WAN,  WiFi,  WiMAX, etc





An Automatic Digital generator set (GL type)



Mains phase frequency sensor(MPF) is senses Mains voltage,phase voltage and frequency of supply power.

Hybrid extension module it senses voltage of the load ,voltage and temperature of the hybrid system.

How grid utility meter is connected to commercial utility meter

Many companies contracting the telecom industry have benefited from this technology including young graduate engineers and technician with no field experience who after short training appear to manage the system pretty well.

With Inala SAM there is reduction of cost incurred on generator fuel by using the lately discovered hybrid mechanism of remote start /stop it is also provided employment to engineers and technicians graduating from university and local training institutions in the country.

Meet Ayesha Farooq, The First Woman Fighter Pilot Of Pakistan Certified For Battle.

There’s only one Pakistani woman who is recognized as a female war-ready fighter pilot, and that’s Ayesha Farooq. 19 women have qualified to be fighter pilots in Pakistan over the last decade, including five others currently in the military, but currently Farooq is the only one qualified for combat.

Ayesha Farooq, 26, Pakistan’s only female war-ready fighter pilot, poses for photograph as she sits in the cockpit of a Chinese-made F-7PG fighter jet at Mushaf base in Sargodha, north Pakistan June 6, 2013. Farooq, from Punjab province’s historic city of Bahawalpur, is one of 19 women who have become pilots in the Pakistan Air Force over the last decade – there are five other female fighter pilots, but they have yet to take the final tests to qualify for combat. A growing number of women have joined Pakistan’s defence forces in recent years as attitudes towards women change.

No Financial Benefit in Freemason says Sir Chande

     

  There is No financial benefits in freemasonry , huu ni msemo ambao Sir Jayantilal Keshavji Chande ambaye ni mdau maarufu wa kundi la freemason hapa nchini aliusema alipokuwa akihojiwa na kituo cha televisheni cha Clouds TV na Gerlad Ando,

    

Sir Chande alikuwa wazi sana na kukiri kwamba yeye ni mwanachama wa kundi la freemason ,na kwamba kundi lake yeye ni lile ambalo hukutana nchini kenya kwa mikutano yao.

Sir Chande akaendelea kwa kusema kwamba freemason sio uchawi wala haina uhusiano na mambo yoyote ya kishetani kinyume na inavyoongelewa na watu mbalimbali wengi wao ni wale ambao hawalijui kwa undani kundi hili ambalo. Kwa mujibu wa Bwana Chande ni kwa ajiri ya ushirikiano ,mshikamano na kusaidiana "If there is my company wants to offer a tender to other companies and if one of the companies is owned by a person who is a freemason then i will give the tender to the that person"alisema Chande akimaanisha kwamba kama kampuni kadhaa zinagombea tender na mmoja kati ya wenye makampuni ni wa freemason basi atampa tender hiyo mtu wa freemason  alisema hayo alipokuwa akisisitiza kwamba kwenye freemason hakuna faida za kifedha badala yake ni ushirikiano wa kawaida .

 

Bwana Chande anadai kwamba kipindi fulani  waliwahi kuhojiwa  kuhusu uhalali wa hekalu la freemason na kushukiwa kuwa walikuwa ni waabudu shetani (devil worshipers) ,"i took the journalists with the camera inside the freemason hall they pictured the hall then they said there is nothing bad and the government gave us permission to proceed with the freemaonry "Alisema Bwana Chande .

 

Chande aliongeza kwamba alama mbalimbali hutumika kama vielelezo katika kufundishia sheria na maadili ya freemasonry

 

Hata hivyo mahojiano hayo kati ya Chande na Gerald Ando wa Clouds TV yameonyesha utofauti mkubwa kati ya freemason tunayoisikia mitaani na ile iliyoelezwa na Bwana Chande .

Katika miaka ya hivi karibuni kumekuwa na habari nyingi kwenye vyombo vya habari kuhusu freemasonry ambapo picha mbalimbali za watu ambao aidha walikuwa wamesimama na Bwana Chande ama kwa namna moja au nyingine walionekana kama wameonyesha alama za freemason

Alama hii ya kipima pembe na Bikari hutumika na freemason katika mafunzo hasa ya kimaadili.

Katika Picha ni mkurugenzi wa makampuni ya IPP akiwa na Bwana Chande katika moja ya hafla hapa nchini Tanzania

Raisi Jakaya Mrisho Kikwete akisalimiana na Bwana Chande

Raisi wa awamu ya Pili Bwana Alli Hasan Mwinyi akiongea na Bwana Chande

 

Baadhi ya magazeti yalichapisha picha mbalimbali zinazounganisha freemason na ikulu

 

 

 

 

TATHMINI YA MLIPUKO ULIOMUUA MWANDISHI WA HABARI

ANGALIA MTUTU WA KIRUSHIA BOMU UKIWA UMEELEKEZWA KWA BWANA MWANGOSI


 KUNA GRENADE ZA AINA MBILI

1.NON LETHAL GRENADE

TEAR GAS GRENADE NI MFANO WA NON LETHAL GRENADE AMBAZO ZENYEWE HAZINA MILIPUKO BALI HUTOA GESI KWA AJIRI YA KUWASAMBARATISHA WAANDAMANAJI AU KUTUMIKA KUTOA TAARIFA KWA NJIA Y MOSHI KWA WANAJESHI WAWAPO VITANI.
 


2.EXPLOSIVE GRENADE

KITAALAMU GRENADE DOGO LA KAWAIDA HUWEZA KUTEMBEA KWA MWENDO KASI WA MITA 75 KWA SEKUNDE  KUTOKA KWENYE KIFAA CHA KURUSHIA (GRENADE LAUNCHER) NA KUMWAGA VIPANDEVIPANDE (FRAGMENTS) 300 AMBAVYO HUTEMBEA KWA MWENDO KASI WA MITA 1524 KWA SEKUNDE KATIKA KIPENYO CHA UMBALI WA MITA TANO KUTOKA LILIPOLIPUKA .



katika sehemu kama hii kilicho muua muandishi wa habari kinaweza kuwa ni bomu dogo (explosive grenade ),na kwa maoni yangu ni kwamba huenda bomu hilo  lilipigwa na askari aliye upande wa kushoto wa picha hiyo hapo juu ,aliye nyuma ya askari aliyeshikwa na mwangosi,ni kwamba alichoshika askari huyo kinaitwa GRENADE LAUNCHER (NI KIFAA KINACHOTUMIKA KURUSHIA GRENADE)

GRENADE LAUNCHER INATUMIKA KURUSHIA GRENADE ZA AINA ZOTE MBILI YAANI EXPLOSIVE GRENADE PAMOJA NA TEAR GAS GRENADE

KIWANGO CHA MLIPUKO AMBAO MADHARA YAKE YANAONEKANA BAADA YA BWANA MWANGOSI KUFARIKI KINAONYESHA KWAMBA GRENADE HILO LILIRUSHWA NA KUTUA KARIBU KABISA NA BWANA MWANGOSI(ZERO DISTANCE).

HATA HIVYO HUENDA GRENADE HILO LILIRUSHWA NA MMOJA WA ASKARI WALIOKUWA WAKIMZUNGUKA  BWANA MWANGOSI KWA SABABU

1. HALIKUWAATHILI ASKARI HAO KAMA LILIVYO MUATHIRI BWANA MWANGOSI.HII NIMKUONYESHA KWAMBA LILILENGWA KOTOKEA KARIBU  SANA ALIPOKUWEPO BWANA MWANGOSI NA KUTUA TUMBONI AMA KIFUANI KABLA HALIJAMLIPUKIA ,NA KWA KUWA ALIKUWA AMEINAMA VIPANDEVIPANDE AMBAVYO HUTOKA NDANI YA BOMU HILO HAVIKUWEZA KUWAATHILI ASKARI WALIOKUWA KARIBU NA BWANA MWANGOSI

2.KUNA UWEZEKANO MKUBWA WA ASKARI AKAWA AMECHUKUA EXPLOSIVE GRENADE BADALA YA TEAR GAS GRENADE KWANI VYOTE VIWILI HUWEZA KURUSHIKA KWA KUTUMIA KIFAA ALICHOSHIKA ASKARI HAPO JUU (GRENADE LAUNCHER
) NA HIVYO ASKARI HUYO KUVURUMISHA GRENADE HILO MBELE YA BWANA MWANGOSI.







JINSI MWILI UNAVYOONEKANA NI KWAMBA HUENDA MLIPUKO ULIKUWA NI WA GRENADE LA WASTANI LAKINI LILISABABISHA KUSAMBALATIKA KWA MWILI WA BWANA MWANGOSI KWA SABABU

1.ALIKUWA KARIBU SANA NA GRENADE

2.ALIINAMA NA KUZUIA VIPANDEVIPANDE (BOMB FRAGMENTS) KURUKA MBALI NAYE)

Hivi ndivyo ilivyokuwa baada ya bomu kulipuka.



POLE KWA NDUGU NA WAFANYAKAZI WENZAKE,BWANA ALITOA NA BWANA AMETWAA JINA LA BWANA LIHIMIDIWE

NI kitu gani kilichomlipua Bwana Daudi Mwangosi?

Hapa polisi wakiwataka wafuasi wa Chadema kutawanyika eneo la tukio ofisi za Chadema Nyololo Mufindi

Mwili wa mwanahabari Daud Mwangosi ukiwa chini
