The deputy minister was responding to a question earlier raised by
Tunduma legislator Frank George Mwakanjika (CCM) who wanted to know how the
government has prepared itself to fulfill its promises of making repairs on
major roads that had been devastated by long rains. Another supplementary
question was raised by the special seat legislator Amina Mollel (CCM) who
wanted to know the fate of 53 people whose structures were demolished to pave
the way for the construction of the road in Arusha region. Responding to this,
the deputy minister noted that, about Tshs. 201.5 million has been issued to
pay them and the minister has further promised to show optimism to continue
paying people who will be affected with such an exercise.
