FROM
the tip of the country in Tunduru to Namanga and its environs, Kagera
and extend to Zanzibar, the world of cloves, one would come in a country
that is sitting on opportunities, endowed with vast arable land
favourable for transforming agriculture, mining of rare minerals
including
Helium in Lake Rukwa, basically natural resources necessary
for a resource-based industrialisation and all sorts of tourists
attraction sites.
Based
on these natural blessings as well as other natural resources- rivers,
forests, fisheries in vast quantities worth significant amount, and the
commitment of the Fifth Phase Government under President John Pombe
Magufuli (JPM) call for industrialisation drive in the country, Tanzania
must now prove to the world that Africa can also manage to develop and
feed its people, and it is just a matter of time, and what matters is
purely having faith.
The
regime has on a serious note focused on agribusiness, as the engine of
structural transformation to create jobs, increase its people’s incomes,
and feed them, meaning that people who are well fed and healthy, will
be capable of defining their own destiny and alleviate poverty.
With
peace flourishing everywhere in the country, investors seeing the
essence of investing, and sparing no stone to eliminate corruption,
Tanzania is now widely believed to be on the right track to address its
woes in terms of diseases, poverty and ignorance.
With
that enticing base set and the private sector joining the government in
the drive, regional interactions and collaborations, will automatically
mean massive industrialisation and “over cup effects” will likely make
the continent a force to reckon with.
Some
of these achievements do not come on their own unless a sacrifice is
made and the sacrifice has been the call by JPM that it is now time for
the country/Africa to industrialise and stop being the destination of
some shameful goods it is capable of making on its own.
With
a number of companies looking towards coming to invest in Tanzania, or
in the region for large-scale projects after realising that
transportation infrastructures are being improved, trade corridors
opening, and several treaties being signed between countries, Tanzanians
have all the reasons to support such a regime.
The
country now has reliable power that is suitable to run any form of
industry around the clock the whole year, besides security that is also
guaranteed, hence what remains is the citizens and stakeholders
supporting the government in the industrialisation and regional
development drives.
Seeing
the essence of supporting the government, it is hats off for financial
institutions to have also chipped in to fight poverty in the country by
lowering their interest rates and this in a way is investing in the
people.
All
these collective roles at the end of the day promote development and
help the government to increase capabilities in servicing the citizens.
