Intokazi enethonya, enesipiliyoni seminyaka engu-30 esebenzisana nokuthuthukiswa kwamabhizinisi e-Afrika, uNksz Jarskog, ithi iMount Kilimanjaro kumele ihlale ngokwemvelo.

“Abavakashi abezi e-Climb Mount Kilimanjaro ukuze bathole ubukhazikhazi njengokuhlala eDubai. Empeleni beza ukuze bathole ithuba lokuzindla futhi bajabulele ukuba sempilweni” kuchaza yena engxoxweni ekhethekile neBusiness Times.

Ukuphawula kwakhe kuza phakathi kwemibiko yokuthi Tanzania uhlela ukufaka imoto yamakhebula eNtabeni ephakeme kunazo zonke e-Afrika, njengesu lokuheha izivakashi ezengeziwe kanye nokuthuthukisa izinombolo zezokuvakasha.

Imoto yekhebula izobhekiswa ikakhulukazi ekusizeni ukuvakashelwa kwabavakashi abadala, okungenzeka ukuthi abakulungeli ngokwanele ngokwanele ukuba bakhuphuke intaba, okuyindawo ephakeme yayo, engamamitha angu-5,895 ubude.

Esikhundleni sokubukwa okujwayelekile kweqhwa neqhwa, le moto yekhebula ingahlinzeka ngohambo losuku ngamehlo enyoni, ngokungahambisani nohambo lwezinsuku eziyisishiyagalombili lokuhamba izintaba.

“Hlonipha imvelo. Ngingakutshela ukuthi iningi lezivakashi liqwala iMount Kilimanjaro ngoba liyaqonda ukuthi umuntu angathuthuka njengomuntu uma ethintana nemvelo,” kuphawula uNksz Jarskog.

Uphinde unxuse izivakashi ukuthi zibambe iqhaza ekulahleni imfucuza uma iMount Kilimanjaro izohlala iyinhle ngendlela eyiyo.

Umholi webhizinisi ugcizelele isidingo sokuthi izinkampani ezihambela izindawo zitshele amakhasimende azo ngaphambi kokuqwala intaba ngendlela yokuphatha udoti.

Isikhulu esiphezulu seTanzania Association of Tour Operators (TATO), uMnu Sirili Akko uncome uNksz Jarskog ngokwenza uphahla lwase-Afrika.

Imbozwe yinkungu, egcwele izinganekwane nezimfihlakalo, iNtaba iKilimanjaro eyaziwa nangokuthi uphahla lwase-Afrika imele ukuheha izivakashi ezivela kuwo wonke amagumbi omhlaba, izizathu ezibangele ukuqokwa kwayo ukuba ingenele ukufakwa ohlwini lweZimangaliso Eziyisikhombisa Ezintsha Zemvelo.

Imbozwe amafu ampunga, amnyama futhi embozwe yinkungu usuku lonke, iNtaba iKilimanjaro enobude obungamamitha ayi-5,895 itholakala kumakhilomitha angama-330 eningizimu ye-Equator, inika ugqozi olwesabekayo nolubabazekayo emakhulwini amakhilomitha kude.

IKilimanjaro ingenye yezintaba ezihamba phambili ezingashadile nezizimele emhlabeni, futhi yakhiwa iziqongo ezintathu ezizimele zeKibo, Mawenzi neShira. Yonke le ntaba ingamakhilomitha angama-4,000 womhlaba.
Yakha iminyaka engaba ngu-750,000 ngokuqhuma kwentaba-mlilo, iNtaba iKilimanjaro yathatha izinguquko eziningana zomhlaba iminyaka engama-250,000, futhi izinto ezikhona zenziwa phakathi neminyaka engama-500,000 eyedlule ngemuva kwezinxushunxushu eziningi nokuzamazama komhlaba okwadala ukwakheka kwamagquma wentaba-mlilo angama-250 namachibi emigodi okuhlanganisa namachibi iLake Chala elihle kakhulu phansi kwemithambeka yalo.

Umsebenzi wokugcina wentaba-mlilo wenzeka cishe eminyakeni engama-200 eyedlule futhi wakha isigaxa somlotha esilinganayo esiseduze neKibo peak, futhi kusukela lapho, uMt. IKilimanjaro ibinokuthula kuze kube namuhla, kepha abantu abebehlala emithambekeni futhi bebona ukuqhuma kwentaba-mlilo baxhumanise le nto yemvelo nesijeziso esivela kuNkulunkulu.

Lapho iNtaba iKilimanjaro iyitshe eliyigugu e-Afrika namuhla, abantu ababekade begibele emithambekeni ngaphambili bathatha lentaba ekhazimulayo nenhle bayisa endaweni yokungesabi ukuphindiselwa uNkulunkulu ngoba yayiyisihlalo sakhe esingusomandla.

Ngo-1861, uRichard Thornton wazama ukukhuphuka kuqala. Intaba ibintsha kuye futhi ibinenkinga enzima yokungena endaweni yesibili. Futhi isimo sezulu besisibi kakhulu futhi samphoqa ukuba ehle. Ngo-1862, u-Otto Kersten noBaron Von der Decken bazama ukukhuphuka. Bakhuphuke ngaphezu kwamamitha angu-15,000 XNUMX kodwa baphoqeleka phansi ngenxa yesimo sezulu esibi.
Ngo-Okthoba 5, 1889 leso sazi sokuma komhlaba saseJalimane saphumelela ukufinyelela esiqongweni seKibo, okuyindawo ephakeme kakhulu ezwenikazi lase-Afrika. Uqambe le ndawo ephakeme kunazo zonke e-Afrika iKaiser Wilhelm's Peak.
