Tanzania government is expected to sign a loan
whereby the Indian government will help revamp the stagnated water irrigation development
scheme projects currently under construction in various parts in the country. The
Minister for Water and Irrigation Hon.Eng. Isack Kamwelwe said
in parliament today when responding to various questions directed to his
ministry by legislators. The majority of the legislators raised some queries as
they wanted to know the updates of the development of water schemes to be used
for irrigation which are located in their respective constituencies. The
Minister said that at the moment the government through national water
commission has no enough money to accomplish on time such projects most of
which are located in rural areas. He said that, once the signing pact is in
place between the two countries, the execution of such projects will take place
at a quick pace after the money is attained from India. The Minister was
responding a supplementary question raised by a special seat legislator Hon.
Devota Minja who wanted to know to what extent has the government’s water
irrigation projects in rural areas helped facilitate water irrigation schemes
in various allocated areas in the country.
