By Callum Paton A policeman stands guard at Larnaca Airport near a hijacked Egyptair A320Yiannis Kourtoglou/ Reuters Police in at Larnaca airport in Cyprus have arrested a hijacker who took control of Egyptair flight MS181 en route to Cairo from Alexandria. All 81 passengers including four foreign nationals and crew members, held for several hours as hostages, are free and safe. At the conclusion of the stand off four individuals fled the plane before the hijacker gave himself up. Cypriot authorities have identified the hijacker as Seif el-Din Mustafa, an Egyptian national.

Awali matangazo kama haya ikiwemo lile la Kujiunga na Freemason pamoja na watalaamu wa tiba asili yalizagaa pia mitaani na hata katika mitandao ya kijamii. Asilimia kubwa ya matangazo haya yanaonekana kuwa ya kuwalaghai wananchi kupitia shida na matatizo yao hususani katika magonjwa. Nakumbuka mwaka jana Serikali ilipiga marufuku matangazo yote ya waganga wa kienyeji katika mabango ya mitaani, mitandao ya kijamii na hata katika vyombo muhimu vya habari kama vile redio, runinga na magazeti, kutokana na matangazo hayo kujaa upotoshaji kwa baadhi ya maeneo ikiwemo kutibu magonjwa sugu ikiwemo Ukimwi nk.

Ni kutokana na upotoshaji wa baadhi...
