Akiongea katika hafla hiyo Papa alisema ujasiri na nguvu vinahitjika katika juhudi za kuleta amani. "Kuleta amani kunahitji ujasiri mkubwa kuliko vita. Kunahitaji ujasiri wa kusema ndio kwa mkutano na La kwa vita; ndio kwa mashauriano na La kwa makabiliano; ndio kwa kuheshimu mikataba na La kwa uchokozi; Ndio kwa ukweli na La kwa Uongo; kwa haya yote tunahitaji ujasiri na nguvu moyoni," Papa alisema Na katika hotuba yake Bwana Peres alisema alitakia vizazi vyote vijavyo amani ya kudumu: "Rafiki wapenzi, Nilikuwa mchanga, na sasa nimezeeka. Nilishuhudia vita, Nilionja amani. Sitawahi kusahau familia zilizofiwa, wazazi na watoto waliolipia gharama kubwa kwa vita hivyo. Na maisha yangu yote sitakoma kuitisha amani, kwa niaba ya vizazi vijavyo. Naomba sisi sote tuungane mikono na kufurahi kwa sababu ni wajibu wetu kufanya hivyo kwa niaba ya watoto wetu. Na kwa upande wake Bwana Abbas aliombea amani katika mkutano huo," alisema Peres. Naye kiongozi wa Palestina, Mahmoud Abbas, aliomba kwenye hafula hiyo. "Ee Bwana, tuletee amani ya kudumu na ya haki katika taifa letu na eneo letu, kwa ujumla, ili watu wetu na watu wote wa Mashariki ya Kati na Dunia nzima ifurahie matunda ya amani, utangamano na kuishi kwa pamoja kwa upendo. Baada ya sherehe hiyo, iliyoshirikisha maombi ya Kikristo, Kiyahudi na Kiislamu, waliokuwepo walisalimiana kwa mikono na kupanda Mzaituni katika Medani ya Vatican kama ishara ya amani. Papa ametangaza hadharani kuwa hataki kuingilia moja kwa moja mashauriano ya amani ya Mashariki ya kati, yaliyoporomoka Aprili lakini akasema kuwa anatarajia kwamba mkutano katika Vatican utapunguza uahasama kati ya pande hizo mbili kinzani za Mashariki ya Kati.

ETI LLULU NA NANDO WA BIG BROTHER NI WAPENZII

Mambo hadharani! Uhusiano wa staa wa sinema za Kibongo, Elizabeth Michael ‘Lulu’ na mshiriki wa Shindano la Big Brother Africa 2013, Amir Nando umewekwa kweupe. Kabla ya wawili hao kufunguka, kulikuwa na madai mazito kuwa Lulu na Nando ‘wanachepuka’ mara tu baada ya Nando kutolewa BBA kwa ukosefu wa nidhamu. Kuna habari kuwa Nando ndiye aliyevujisha ishu hiyo, jambo ambalo Lulu hakupendezwa nalo hivyo kumpiga chini. Baada ya kunyetishiwa ishu hiyo, gazeti hili lilimtafuta Nando ambaye mwanzoni alifanya kama utani akidai Lulu ni mwanamke anayefaa kuolewa (wife material) lakini alipoulizwa kwa msisitizo, alikana kuwa na uhusiano na mrembo huyo. “Lulu ni mkali, niko tayari kumuoa lakini sijamwambia, akikubali freshi nitamuoa. Kwa sasa ni mshikaji wangu tu na napenda kazi zake. Huwa ni mtu ambaye napenda kufuatilia ishu zake,” alisema Nando. Kwa upande wake Lulu alishtuka na kudai kuwa aulizwe huyohuyo Nando na si yeye kwani haoni sababu ya yeye kuulizwa. Alifunguka: “Hebu muulizeni Nando kama ni Lulu mimi au mwingine? Yeye akishatoa jibu sina la kusema.” Chanzo: UDAKU SPECIALLY
