"title": "Financial sector expands as investors turn selective - Daily News",
"body": "DAR ES SALAAM: FINANCIAL sector delivered a revealing contrast during the week of 2-8 November this year. Investors submitted almost three times the amount offered at a government bond auction, while the stock market declined despite strong earnings reported by banks, the exchange operator and Vodacom. The figures suggest expanding financial activity alongside greater investor selectivity. They also raise a practical question: How much of this growth is reaching businesses through affordable, sustainable financing?\n\nThe clearest demand signal came from the reopened two-year Treasury bond on November 4. Investors tendered 394.9bn/- against 139bn/- offered, producing a bid-to-cover ratio of 2.84 times. About 136.9bn/- was accepted, with 44 of 75 bids successful. The weighted average yield fell to 8.09 per cent from 8.40 per cent at July's auction. Although the bond carries a 9.5 per cent coupon, its average price of 102.2098 per 100 of face value explains why buyers' yield to maturity was lower.\n\nThe bond matures on July 30, 2028, so November buyers acquire its remaining life rather than a fresh two-year investment. Falling auction yields indicate that investors accepted a lower return than in July. For new buyers, the decision therefore depends on purchase price, remaining maturity and cash needs, alongside the headline coupon.\n\nEquities faced a different week. Between the closes of October 30 and November 6, the Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange All Share Index fell 1.11 per cent and the Tanzania Share Index declined 1.39 per cent. Equity turnover during November 2-6 dropped 10.16 per cent to 37.43bn/-. Total market capitalisation decreased from 38.57tri/- to 38.14tri/-, a reduction of approximately 429bn/- in quoted market value.\n\nForeign investors recorded net selling of 7.0 million US dollar, extending their selling streak to four weeks. Domestic investors accounted for 99.15 per cent of purchases. Meanwhile, secondary bond turnover increased 38.12 per cent to 163.38bn/.\n\nTogether, these figures show stronger bond trading alongside weaker equities, although they cannot establish that proceeds from share sales moved into bonds. Nor does lower market capitalisation represent an equivalent cash withdrawal.\n\nIndividual shares also diverged. CRDB fell 0.70 per cent to 2,820 and NMB declined 1.65 per cent to 1,790. DSE PLC rose 4.23 per cent to 6,400, while Vodacom gained 0.80 per cent to 1,260. The mixed performance reinforces the distinction between a company's operating results and the price investors are willing to pay for its shares.\n\nThe exchange operator's earnings nevertheless showed substantial expansion. DSE PLC reported nine-month profit after tax of 11.48bn/-, up 164 per cent from 4.35bn/- a year earlier. Total income increased 95.9 per cent to 24.41bn/-, while transaction-fee income rose 180.8 per cent to 8.07bn/-. Third-quarter equity turnover reached 824.1bn/-, against 248.6bn/- a year earlier. These January-September results describe a much longer period than November's weekly decline.\n\nInvestors should also examine the composition of that growth. DSE's other noncore income increased from 314.24m/- to 6.48bn/-, contributing approximately half the increase in total income. Its cost-to-income ratio improved from 62.5 per cent to 50.7 per cent. Stronger trading and better efficiency supported earnings, but the non-core contribution makes its repeatability a relevant question when assessing future profits.\n\nThe exchange earns fees when investors trade, including during periods of selling. Its business performance can therefore differ from the direction of its indices. Sustained participation matters to its revenues, while shareholders must also assess how much income comes from recurring operations.\n\nThe banking figures provide another measure of financial expansion. An analysis published by The Citizen on November 3 covering 16 major lenders put combined loans, advances and overdrafts at 55.12tri/- in September, up 4.14 tri/, or 8.12 per cent, from June. Their combined nine-month net profits exceeded 2.02tri/-, against 1.74tri/- a year earlier. CRDB and NMB contributed roughly 1.31tri/-, illustrating the concentration of earnings among the largest institutions.\n\nThe reported average nonperforming-loan ratio among those lenders eased from 2.27 per cent to 2.1 per cent. That is encouraging, although an average across selected banks cannot substitute for a weighted measure of the entire system. Credit affordability also remains a separate issue: The Bank of Tanzania's October review, cited in the same report, put September's overall lending rate at 15.54 per cent, up from 15.05 per cent in August. Expanding loan books therefore do not automatically mean cheaper borrowing.\n\nFor banks, rapid loan growth places increasing weight on underwriting and repayment capacity. A declining bad-loan ratio is useful evidence, but newly issued loans need time to mature before their full repayment performance becomes visible. Future results over the coming quarters will help test that expansion.\n\nNMB's 30 million US dollar facility from China Development Bank, reported on 6 November, offers a concrete example of additional funding intended for small and medium-sized enterprises. The agreement supports business expansion, investment and trade, including Tanzania-China commerce. NMB also offers renminbi accounts and payments through China's Cross-border Interbank Payment System. The facility increases available funding, but its announcement does not disclose the final interest rates, collateral requirements or number of businesses that will benefit.\n\nThe NMB agreement also illustrates the link between international funding and domestic enterprise. Its economic contribution will depend on actual disbursements, repayment terms and the investments financed. More available capital can support expansion, but firms still need viable markets and sufficient cash flow to service borrowing.\n\nDigital finance adds another dimension. Vodacom Tanzania's results for the six months ended September 30 showed net profit increasing 182.7 per cent to 117.8bn/-, while service revenue rose 20.8 per cent to 1.07tri/-. M-Pesa revenue grew 26.2 per cent to 443.3bn/-, accounting for approximately 41.5 per cent of service revenue. The company reported digital-loan disbursements exceeding 2tri/- to nearly seven million borrowers. These disbursements measure lending activity over the period, rather than loans outstanding at one date.\n\nVodacom also reported MKoba deposits increasing by more than 50 per cent and users rising over 40 per cent to nearly two million. Offered with Tanzania Commercial Bank, the service illustrates how bank partnerships and mobile platforms can extend savings services.\n\nVodacom's underlying operating-profit growth was 31 per cent after adjustments for network-modernisation costs and foreign-exchange effects, compared with reported growth of 126.9 per cent. That distinction, alongside DSE's non-core income, reinforces the need to examine earnings quality. For Tanzania, the next test is whether strong funding demand, bank lending and digital transactions translate into broader business investment. Investors will need to weigh recurring profits, credit quality and share valuations against the returns available from government securities.",

"title": "TRA eyes longer validity for cooking oil import permits - Daily News",
"body": "UNGUJA: THE Tanzania Revenue Authority (TRA) is considering extending the validity period of cooking oil import permits to ensure uninterrupted supplies and ease trade between Mainland Tanzania and Zanzibar.\n\nTRA Commissioner General, Mr Yusuph Mwenda, said the authority had initially issued permits for the importation of 45,000 tonnes of cooking oil. Of this amount, 25,000 tonnes had already been imported, leaving 20,000 tonnes expected to enter the country by December 31, 2026.\n\nMr Mwenda made the remarks during a courtesy visit to Zanzibar Minister for Finance and Planning, Dr Juma Malik Akil, at the Ministry's offices in Unguja.\n\nHe was accompanied by a TRA delegation and introduced the authority's Acting Deputy Commissioner for Zanzibar, Mr Rashid Suleiman Herikh.\n\n\"The remaining quantity would be imported by traders who had already secured permits. However, we are also reviewing the possibility of extending the permit issuance period to sustain business operations in line with market demand,\" he said.\n\nHe added, \"We are considering extending the period for issuing permits because the demand for cooking oil is known. We have directed a team of experts to sit with traders and provide feedback within 30 days.\"\n\nMr Mwenda directed TRA officials to maintain close engagement with traders, listen to their concerns and address challenges arising during business operations.\n\nHe emphasised that listening to taxpayers was an important step towards facilitating business, adding that TRA officers should remain accessible to traders and work towards resolving difficulties affecting their operations.\n\n\"Trade between Mainland Tanzania and Zanzibar should take place without unnecessary barriers. TRA is working to address existing bottlenecks affecting the movement of goods,\" he said.\n\nAs another measure to improve trade, Mr Mwenda announced plans to designate a special area at the port for handling cargo destined for Zanzibar.\n\nTanzania Traders Association Vice-Chairman and Zanzibar Freight Forwarders Association President, Mr Omar Hussein Mussa, welcomed TRA's engagement with the business community.\n\n\"Zanzibar traders will continue cooperating with the authority to promote trade and improve citizens' economic wellbeing,\" he said.\n\nTraders also welcomed the authority's willingness to listen to their concerns, saying continued cooperation between TRA and businesses was important in simplifying procedures and supporting economic growth.",

"body": "DAR ES SALAAM: LIMITED market access has remained a major constraint to business growth in the country, prompting the Tanzania Trade Development Authority (TanTrade) to step up efforts to connect local producers with potential buyers, broaden market opportunities and facilitate new business deals through trade exhibitions.\n\nThe focus comes as the Authority outlines its priorities for the next five years, with particular emphasis on value addition, product quality, branding and expanding business opportunities in domestic and international markets.\n\nTanTrade Director General, Ephraim Mafuru outlined the priorities during his first meeting with staff after completing 90 days in office, where he stressed the need for the institution to deliver practical interventions that respond to the needs of the business community.\n\n\"The authority plans to modernise systems for coordinating and managing trade exhibitions within and outside the country, with the aim of making them more effective in linking producers to potential buyers and creating opportunities for businesses to access new markets,\" Mr Mafuru said.\n\nHe said, for local businesses, the effectiveness of such platforms will be measured not simply by the number of exhibitions organised, but by their ability to generate commercial connections, secure buyers and open up sustainable markets for locally produced goods and services.\n\nMr Mafuru also identified value addition and product competitiveness as key areas requiring attention.\n\n\"Traders need support to improve product quality, strengthen their brands and meet standards required in both domestic and international markets. As the responsible institution, TanTrade will work to ensure that businesses are adequately prepared and meet the necessary requirements to participate in trade exhibitions and take advantage of the market opportunities available,\" he said.\n\nHe added that the priorities underscore the need for local enterprises to move beyond production and focus on developing market-ready products that meet consumer expectations and compete effectively on quality, consistency and value in both domestic and international markets.\n\nMr Mafuru also urged TanTrade employees to align their work with the authority's strategic priorities, stressing the importance of accountability, professionalism and results-driven performance.\n\nHe noted that achieving the institution's objectives would require a collective commitment from staff to improve trade facilitation and expand market opportunities for Tanzanian businesses.\n\nThe meeting also examined how the authority's five-year priorities translate the objectives of the National Development Vision 2050 into practical interventions, particularly in promoting value addition, strengthening the competitiveness of Tanzanian products and increasing business participation in international markets.\n\nThe real test of the five-year agenda will be its impact on businesses, particularly whether improved trade facilitation, stronger buyer connections and better market access can translate into increased sales, business growth and wider participation of Tanzanian enterprises in regional and global trade.",

"body": "DAR ES SALAAM: TANZANIA'S rise to third place at the 2026 All Africa Challenge Trophy (AACT) in Abuja, Nigeria over the weekend has given ladies' golf a renewed sense of ambition, with the Tanzania Ladies Golf Union (TLGU) now setting sights on winning the continental title in 2028.\n\nThe achievement represents a significant step forward for Tanzania that improved from fifth position at the 2024 championship in Morocco to finish among Africa's top three in Abuja, ahead of hosts Nigeria.\n\nTanzania carded an aggregate 479 strokes to finish third among 19 participating nations, securing a place on the podium at the IBB International Golf and Country Club in Abuja.\n\nSouth Africa claimed the continental title with 464 strokes, while Kenya finished runners-up on 470, leaving Tanzania third, just 15-stroke behind the champions.\n\nHosts Nigeria finished fourth with 500 strokes, followed by Uganda (504), Zambia (506), Botswana (510), Zimbabwe (521), Ghana and Rwanda (526 each), Tunisia (527), Gabon (542), Mauritius (556), Namibia (568), Malawi (574), Eswatini and Senegal (575 each), Cameroon (583), while Togo finished last with 628 strokes.\n\nFor the TLGU, President Timea Chogo, the result is not only a source of national pride but also evidence that Tanzanian ladies golfers have the ability to compete against the continent's strongest teams.\n\nSpeaking after the tournament, the president described the bronze-medal finish as a remarkable achievement built on discipline, determination and teamwork.\n\n\"I'm incredibly proud, as president and as a Tanzanian. We moved up from fifth at the last AACT to third in Africa,\" she said.\n\nShe particularly praised the consistency of Tanzania's three-player team, Captain Madina Iddi (Hussein), Neema Olomi and Hawa Wanyeche, who all finished among the individual top eight.\n\nAccording to the president, their performances demonstrated the strength and competitive spirit of the national team, with each player fighting until the final putt despite the demanding conditions.\n\n\"On a tough course and against the strongest teams on the continent, they battled hole by hole, round after round, right to the very last putt. Every shot they played carried the hopes of our nation, and they carried that responsibility with courage, grace and pride. Tanzania salutes you,\" she said.\n\nShe dedicated the achievement to the three golfers, their families, supporters and Tanzanians who followed the team's journey to Abuja.\n\nThe president also expressed gratitude to the public for its prayers, messages and encouragement, saying the support had played an important role in motivating the players throughout the competition.\n\n\"Our flag flew high in Abuja, and we will keep raising it higher,\" she declared.\n\nAdapting to challenging conditions\n\nDespite the impressive result, the road to the podium was not without challenges.\n\nThe president identified the condition of the IBB Golf and Country Club course as the team's biggest challenge, explaining that the playing conditions were significantly different from those the golfers were accustomed to in Tanzania.\n\nThe players therefore had to adjust their strategies quickly as the competition progressed.\n\nShe credited TLGU VicePresident Ayne Magombe, who served as team manager, for playing a crucial role in helping the players navigate the difficult conditions.\n\nMagombe worked closely with the golfers throughout the tournament, helping them adjust their game plans, remain composed under pressure and maintain their focus from one round to another.\n\n\"Every team played the same course, but adapting fast away from home is never easy. With that support behind them, our players handled it with real patience and maturity. Her leadership as team manager was central to the team's success in Abuja,\" the president said.\n\nTanzania also faced stiff competition from established golfing nations South Africa and Kenya, whose programmes benefit from extensive resources and greater international exposure.\n\nHowever, the president believes Tanzania's performance has demonstrated that the country can challenge the continent's traditional powerhouses.\n\nShe pointed to Tanzania's previous achievements at the championship, particularly the 2018 edition in Ghana, where the country finished second overall and Madina Iddi claimed the individual title.\n\nAfter slipping to fifth place in Morocco in 2024, Tanzania's return to the podium in Abuja, finishing just nine shots behind Kenya, has reinforced the team's belief that an overall championship victory is within reach.\n\n\"We have shown we can fight with the very best. The next step is no longer just closing the gap. We are chasing the number one spot and an AACT title for Tanzania, which would be a historic achievement for our country,\" she said.\n\nBuilding towards South Africa 2028\n\nWith the next AACT scheduled for South Africa in 2028, TLGU is already looking beyond its Abuja success and preparing a long-term strategy to turn its bronze-medal achievement into a continental championship.\n\nThe president said the twoyear period provides an important opportunity to strengthen the country's talent base, improve players' competitive experience and establish a more sustainable national team development programme.\n\nBefore the next AACT, Tanzania will have another important assignment at the East and Central Africa Challenge Trophy in Madagascar, scheduled for the last quarter of 2027.\n\nThe regional competition is expected to provide valuable international exposure and serve as an important preparation platform for the bigger challenge in South Africa.\n\nOne of TLGU's main priorities will be developing a stronger junior golf programme, particularly by encouraging more young Tanzanian girls to take up the sport and progress into competitive golf.\n\nThe union wants to have a larger pool of talented young players ready to represent the country by 2028, ensuring that the success achieved by the current national team becomes the foundation for future generations.\n\n\"We are also introducing an Order of Merit, so national team selection rewards consistent performance, and we'll push for more international exposure for our players,\" the president explained.\n\nShe also stressed the importance of increased financial and institutional support, acknowledging the government's contribution through the National Sports Counci (NSC).\n\nThe president called on the government and corporate Tanzania to increase investment in golf, particularly in women's and junior development.\n\n\"Abuja has shown what our women can achieve. We now urge the government through NSC, alongside corporate Tanzania, to invest more in golf, especially in developing women and juniors in the sport. With greater investment, we can turn podium finishes into championship titles,\" she said.\n\nSponsors and supporters acknowledged\n\nThe TLGU president also recognised the contribution of corporate partners and golf stakeholders who supported the national team's preparations and participation in Abuja.\n\nShe specifically thanked Tanzania National Parks (TANAPA), CRDB Bank, Tanzania Breweries Limited (TBL), Kago Africa Limited, Tanzania Golf Union (TGU) and Sahel for supporting the team's Road to Abuja campaign.\n\nShe extended her appreciation to members of the TLGU Executive Committee and the wider union family, noting that their work behind the scenes, including fundraising, logistics and team preparations, had been instrumental in making the trip possible.\n\n\"Championships are won long before the first tee. Our preparations for South Africa 2028 start now, so that Tanzania arrives ready not just to compete, but to win,\" she said.\n\nLessons from Abuja\n\neflecting on her first-ever AACT experience, the president said the biggest lesson was that Tanzanian women's golf has the potential to compete with the best on the continent.\n\nThe improvement from fifth place in 2024 to third in 2026 has strengthened her conviction that the country is moving in the right direction.\n\nHowever, she acknowledged that reaching the top requires consistent investment, long-term preparation and greater international exposure.\n\nShe also highlighted the importance of collaboration among the players, the golf union, government and private-sector partners, saying the Abuja experience had demonstrated what could be achieved when all stakeholders work towards a common goal.",

"title": "From village groups to rural agribusiness corporations - Daily News",
"body": "DAR ES SALAAM: FOR decades, Tanzanian agriculture has been organised around village groups. Farmers have come together in cooperatives, savings associations and producer groups to share knowledge, pool labour and market collectively.\n\nThese groups remain essential to rural life. Yet as markets mature and demand grows more sophisticated, a question arises: Can village groups alone take Tanzanian agriculture into the future? Increasingly, the answer is no.\n\nThe next leap lies in transforming them into rural corporations: professional, commercially minded agribusinesses owned by farmers themselves.\n\nThe distinction matters. A village group often operates informally, with limited capital, weak record-keeping and dependence on external support.\n\nA rural corporation, by contrast, has structured governance, audited accounts, an accountable board and a clear growth strategy.\n\nIt negotiates contracts, invests in processing and storage, and builds brands that reach markets beyond the village. Rooted in the community, it operates with the discipline of a business. This transformation is not about abandoning the cooperative spirit but giving it a stronger foundation.\n\nWhen farmers own shares in a well-managed enterprise, their incentives change. They think beyond the next harvest, demand transparency because their money is at stake, and reinvest profits when they see the returns.\n\nProperly structured ownership turns passive members into active entrepreneurs. Tanzania already has the ingredients for this transition. A young population is eager for opportunities, urban demand for processed and packaged food is growing, and regional markets are opening.\n\nWhat is often missing is the bridge between smallholder production and commercial scale. Rural corporations could provide that link. Models such as the one championed by Norges Vel offer useful lessons.\n\nThe Norwegian organisation has worked with Tanzanian cooperatives, emphasising member ownership, democratic governance and business discipline. Its approach treats farmers not simply as beneficiaries but as shareholders and decision-makers.\n\nThrough training in leadership, financial management and market linkages, the focus is on building institutions capable of standing on their own. The lesson is clear: strong organisations, rather than dependence on charity, create lasting change. Young people must be central to this transformation.\n\nMany are attracted by agriculture's potential but discouraged by low prices, demanding labour and limited access to land and credit. Rural corporations could change this perception by creating opportunities in management, logistics, processing, marketing and technology.\n\nProfessionally managed agribusinesses can offer young people careers, ownership stakes and a sense of purpose. By making agriculture commercially attractive, they could encourage more youth to invest their skills and ideas in rural economies rather than move to cities in search of work.\n\nHowever, this transformation will not happen automatically. Legal frameworks must make it easier to register and capitalise farmer-owned companies. Financial institutions need products suited to agricultural cycles, while extension services should go beyond technical farming advice to strengthen business skills.\n\nFarmers, too, must embrace change, demand accountability from their leaders and invest in their enterprises. Village groups will always have a place in rural communities, providing the trust and solidarity on which collective action depends.\n\nBut trust alone cannot secure better prices, and solidarity alone cannot finance a processing plant. The next generation of Tanzanian agribusinesses must combine the social capital of the village with the commercial discipline of the corporation.\n\nThe journey will require patience, investment and a willingness to learn from failure. But the potential rewards are significant: a countryside where farmers are not merely producers but owners, agriculture is both a livelihood and a thriving business, and rural communities have greater control over their economic future.\n\nTransforming village groups into rural corporations could help Tanzania build stronger, more competitive and farmer-owned agribusinesses.",

"body": "DAR ES SALAAM: THE Tanzania Standards Bureau (TBS) Viwango SACCOS has recorded an 11bn/- loan portfolio, highlighting the growing role of workplace savings and credit cooperatives in mobilising savings and providing financing to members.\n\nThe society's financial growth comes amid efforts to expand its membership, improve loan administration and strengthen its capacity to meet members' financing needs.\n\nSpeaking during its 40th Annual General Meeting, Board Chairman, Innocent Johnbosco said audited accounts showed a loan portfolio of 9bn/-, while unaudited financial statements indicated 11bn/-.\n\nMembers' savings had also reached 8bn/-, with loans worth 8bn/- disbursed during the current year. He said the figures reflected progress in savings mobilisation, deposits and lending activities since the society's establishment.\n\n\"We have come a long way and achieved significant progress in increasing membership, savings, deposits and our capacity to provide loans to members,\" he said adding our targets is reaching 600 members by next year.\n\nMr Johnbosco said the society had 481 members drawn from different parts of the country, representing approximately half of all TBS employees.\n\nThe society has also maintained a position among Tanzania's top 20 SACCOS for two consecutive years, out of 981 registered societies nationwide.\n\nHe said development loans attract interest of one per cent per month, in accordance with cooperative regulations approved by the Registrar of Cooperatives.\n\nFor the 2027 financial year, the society has identified 11 strategic priorities aimed at improving operational efficiency and financial sustainability.\n\n\"Including recruiting an accountant and an Information and Communications Technology (ICT) officer, upgrading electronic payment systems, strengthening liquidity and reducing loanprocessing delays,\" he said.\n\nHe cited financial education, spouse membership and reforms in credit information and savings policies as key priorities. Mr Johnbosco urged members to fulfil their financial obligations and participate in decision-making to support the society's sustainability.\n\nTBS Administrative Officer Irene Makongoro said the cooperative provides employees with an avenue to build savings and access credit for personal and household needs.\n\nMember Harry Kisiwa said loans had helped him finance his children's education and meet family needs. He added that mandatory monthly contributions of 100,000/- alongside voluntary savings had strengthened his financial discipline and encouraged a consistent saving culture.",

"body": "DAR ES SALAAM: POOR financial management among university students poses risks to personal finances, education loan utilisation and future repayment, prompting the Bank of Tanzania (BoT) and HESLB to introduce financial literacy training targeting higher learning institutions.\n\nThe programme seeks to equip students with practical money management skills, including budgeting, saving, investment, responsible borrowing and protection against financial fraud, as concerns grow over how young people manage limited financial resources.\n\nBoT Governor Emmanuel Tutuba said financial literacy was essential in helping young people make informed financial decisions, manage their resources and achieve personal economic goals.\n\nDuring the launch of the programme yesterday, jointly developed by BoT and HESLB, will be delivered through the Student Individual Personal Accounts (SIPA) digital platform.\n\nMr Tutuba said the training materials had been prepared in book form and would be accessible through the central bank's website and the SIPA platform, extending access beyond students who receive government loans.\n\nThe programme will also cover identifying legitimate sources of income and understanding formal financial services, areas considered important as young people increasingly participate in the financial system.\n\nMr Tutuba said the initiative was aligned with the National Development Vision 2050 and the Third National Financial Inclusion Framework (2023-2028), which identifies young people as a group requiring greater access to financial services and financial education.\n\n\"Its effectiveness would be assessed not only by the number of students reached but also by changes in their financial behaviour, particularly their ability to save, manage expenditure and prioritise essential needs,\" he said.\n\nHESLB Director General Dr Bill Kiwia said the board's responsibility extended beyond providing loans, as beneficiaries also needed guidance on managing the funds to meet their education and personal needs.\n\nDr Kiwia said financial literacy could help students make informed spending decisions, avoid unnecessary expenditure and prepare for loan repayment after completing their studies.\n\n\"Through this programme, students will learn how to save, plan their expenditure and use formal financial services to avoid challenges that may arise from poor financial management,\" he said.",

"title": "Public drugs must reach patients - Daily News",
"body": "TANZANIA: THE Prime Minister's directive requiring security organs to conduct monthly investigations into the procurement, distribution and use of medicines in public health facilities raises an important accountability issue: Medicines purchased with taxpayers' money must reach the patients for whom they are intended.\n\nThe directive addresses a troubling contradiction. While official figures indicate medicine availability of 97 per cent in district and regional hospitals and 96 per cent in health centres and dispensaries, patients continue to complain of being referred to private pharmacies to purchase essential medicines.\n\nThis discrepancy raises serious questions about transparency, supervision and the management of public resources. If medicines are available in government facilities, why are patients forced to buy them elsewhere? Where are the supplies going?\n\nThese questions demand clear answers. Dr Mwigulu Nchemba's insistence that those found responsible for diverting medicines or misusing public funds face firm action must be matched by thorough investigations.\n\nThese should expose weaknesses in procurement, stock management and distribution, while ensuring that monthly reports lead to concrete corrective measures and appropriate legal action.\n\nEqually concerning are reports of public servants turning away citizens without appointments and health workers demanding fuel contributions before transferring critically ill patients to referral hospitals.\n\nSuch practices undermine public trust and contradict the fundamental obligation of public institutions to serve citizens. Emergency healthcare must never be held hostage to administrative procedures or unofficial payments.\n\nPregnant women requiring emergency surgery, accident victims and other critically ill patients deserve immediate attention. Registration formalities should follow after urgent medical needs have been addressed.\n\nPublic servants must recognise that their positions carry responsibilities, not privileges. Citizens deserve dignity, fairness and timely services.\n\nThose who neglect their duties or exploit vulnerable patients must face appropriate consequences. The Prime Minister's assurance of improved financing for development projects following completion of the Julius Nyerere Hydropower Project is also encouraging.\n\nHowever, adequate funding must be accompanied by effective supervision, timely implementation and value for money. Ultimately, government commitments must translate into tangible improvements in people's lives.\n\nMedicines audits must help eliminate diversion and shortages, disciplinary action must strengthen professionalism, and development funding must accelerate essential projects.\n\nTanzanians deserve hospitals with medicines, emergency treatment without unofficial charges and public offices that serve them promptly and respectfully. Public resources belong to the people and must be managed in their interest. Public medicines belong to patients, not profiteers.",

"body": "DAR ES SALAAM: TANZANIA'S Neema Olomi made an impressive start at the Nigeria Ladies Open 2026, carding two-over-par 74 to lead the country's challenge at the IBB International Golf and Country Club in Abuja.\n\nOlomi topped Monday's openinground leaderboard, ahead of compatriot Madina Iddi, who returned four-overpar 76 to occupy second position, while Ghana's Afi Amezedo carded 77 to finish third.\n\nTanzania's Hawa Wanyeche was fourth with 79.\n\nTanzania's strong showing continued through Aalaa Somji and Ayne Magombe, who both carded nine-over-par 81 to share fifth position.\n\nThe performance placed five Tanzanian golfers among the top six, underlining the country's growing strength in women's golf following its impressive third-place finish at the recently concluded All Africa Challenge Trophy (AACT).\n\nLoveness Mungure added to Tanzania's impressive presence on the leaderboard, carding 84 to share eighth position with Nigeria's Ehinonmhen Igbinadolor, giving the country five representatives in the opening-round top 10.\n\nSpeaking after her round, Olomi attributed her strong performance to composure, course familiarity and lessons learnt from previous competitions.\n\n\"Today's (Monday) game went well because I remained calm and had already familiarised myself with the course during the practice sessions and the AACT.\n\n\"My focus was on correcting previous mistakes and ensuring they were not repeated.\n\nThe weather here is extremely hot, and I was unwell on the second day during the AACT. However, I am now feeling much better and ready to continue the fight,\" she said.\n\nMeanwhile, national team captain Iddi highlighted the difference between competing individually and representing the country in a team championship and said: \"I think the pressure of representing your country is different from the pressure of competing as an individual.\"\n\nZimbabwe's Tracey Humbira returned 82 to occupy seventh position, while Nigeria's Igbinadolor shared eighth place with Mungure on 84.\n\nThe tournament has attracted more than 110 golfers from across Africa, providing another important competitive platform for Tanzania's women golfers following their recent continental assignment in Abuja.\n\nTanzania's delegation also includes Tanzania Ladies Golf Union (TLGU) president Timea Chogo, who carded 106, reflecting the union's presence and continued support for the development of women's golf.\n\nThe opening round has highlighted Tanzania's competitive depth, with several players well placed to challenge for individual honours as the threeday World Amateur Golf Ranking (WAGR) championship, 54-hole tournament concludes today.",
