Baada ya kusikiliza changamoto mbalimbali, waziri huyo alikuja na maazimio na maelekezo kama ifuatavyo;

Miundombinu ya Umwagiliaji:
Waziri baada ya kusikiliza kero za wananchi juu ya changamoto zinazowakabili wakulima hao, aliwaeleza kuwa serikali itatengeneza miundombinu ya umwagiliaji na kuunda tume maalum ya kusimamia kilimo cha umwagiliaji nchini ambapo ofisi za umwagiliaji za halmashauri zitasimamia uendelevu wa miundombinu hiyo.

TANZANIA TO RECEIVE SH2.4 TRILLION IMF LOAN

Dar es Salaam - Tanzania will receive a total of $1.046 billion (Sh2.4 trillion) from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) over 40 months in an effort to help the country’s economy to cope with consequences of war in Ukraine as it recovers from the effects of the global Covid-19 pandemic.

“Spillovers from the war in Ukraine are stalling the Tanzanian economy’s gradual recovery from the Covid-19 pandemic, exacerbating the country’s development and reform challenges to unleash its economic potential,” the IMF said in a statement that was availed to The Citizen yesterday.

During the past few months, Tanzania, just like many other countries in the world, has seen a rise in prices of a number of products, including fuel, wheat, fertilizer and cooking oil among others, primarily due to a rise in demand as the global economy recovers from the Covid-19 pandemic and a disruption of commodity delivery channels due to the war in Ukraine.

This has forced President Samia Suluhu Hassan’s administration to come up with a raft of measures in an effort to strike a balance between bringing down the spiralling cost of living and maintaining its tempo of investing in mega infrastructure projects while simultaneously creating an enabling environment for the private sector to thrive.

Though there was no immediate reaction from the government, it is common knowledge that the President Samia’s administration was subsidizing fuel prices to make it affordable to motorists and manufacturers.

In light of the developments, the IMF exuded its support to Tanzania’s economic stimulation plan, with its [IMF’s] experts saying the country will need help to carry out reforms and unleash its economic potential.

Hatua ya benki hiyo kupunguza riba ni utekelezaji wa maagizo ya Rais wa Jamhuri ya Muungano wa Tanzania Samia Suluhu Hassan aliyotoa mwaka huu kwa taasisi za kifedha kupunguza riba hadi kufikia namba moja (Single Digit).

Aliongezea kuwa kushuka kwa riba kumesababisha idadi ya wafanyabiashara wanaokopa katika benki hiyo kuongezeka kulinganisha na miaka ya nyuma kabla ya NMB kupunguza kwa kiwango hicho cha riba ya mikopo yake.

Meneja wa NMB Kanda ya kusini, Janeth Shango alisema benki hiyo iko tayari kuwahudumia wafanyabiashara katika mitaji na elimu ili huduma zao ziwe na ufanisi na faida kwao pia.

The Minister of State, Prime Minister's Office - Policy, Parliament and Coordination, George Simbachawene has said that the efforts of the GGM Kili Challenge Campaign, together with various stakeholders in collaboration with the Government, have helped reduce deaths from HIV/AIDS by 50 percent from 64,000 deaths in 2010 to 32,000 in 2020.

He also said that new HIV infections in adults (15 years and older) have dropped from 110,000 in 2010 to 68,000 in 2020 while new infections from mother to child have dropped from 18 percent in 2010 to 7 percent in 2020.

Simbachawene made the statement at the end of the week when wishing a farewell to 52 Kilimanjaro climbers, of whom 28 are going around the mountain by bicycle and 24 by walking.

The challenge, which started on July 15, 2022, is coordinated by Geita Gold Mine Limited (GGML) in collaboration with the Tanzania National AIDS Control Commission (TACAIDS) with the aim of donating funds for AIDS control activities. The climbers will descend on July 21 this year.

Along with other things, Simbachawene said the government will continue to be at the forefront to ensure that the implemented interventions to respond to HIV and AIDS are productive for various groups in society.

He said that in order to achieve these goals as well as others in winning this war against HIV and AIDS, a joint effort is needed between the government and other stakeholders, especially the private sector to obtain sufficient financial resources.

"The Kili Challenge aims to reduce the effects of the decrease in philanthropic aid and enable the country to strengthen its internal capacity to control AIDS," Simbachawene Said.

BENKI YA CRDB NA IFC KUONGEZA UPATIKANAJI WA MITAJI KWA WAJASIRIAMALI NCHINI TANZANIA NA BURUNDI

Mkurugenzi Mtendaji wa Benki ya CRDB, Abdulmajid Nsekela (kushoto) na Makamu wa Rais wa Shirika la Fedha la Kimataifa (IFC) Afrika, Sergio Pimenta (kulia) wakibadilishana mikataba ya makubaliano ya mkopo wenye thamani ya dola za kimarekani milioni 105 kwa ajili ya kuwawezesha wajasiriamali nchini, katika hafla iliyofanyika katika hoteli ya Johari Rotana, Jijini Dar es Salaam.

Benki ya CRDB na Shirika la Fedha la Kimataifa (IFC) leo wameingia mkataba wa uwezeshaji utakaongeza upatikanaji wa fedha kwa wajasiriamali wadogo na wakati nchini Tanzania na Burundi, na kusaidia kuimarisha uchumi wa nchi zote mbili kutokana na athari za janga la UVIKO-19. Hafla hiyo ilifanyika katika hoteli ya Johari Rotana iliyopo katikati ya Jiji la Dar es Salaam na kuhudhuriwa na viongozi waaandamizi wa taasisi hizo.

Chini ya ushirikiano huo, IFC inatoa mkopo wa dola milioni 100 kwa Benki ya CRDB Tanzania, nusu ya fedha hizo zitakuwa kwa shilingi ya kitanzania, na mkopo wa dola milioni 5 kwa Benki ya CRDB Burundi kusaidia mikopo kwa wafanyabiashara wadogo katika nchi zote mbili, hasa kwa wafanyabiashara wanaomilikiwa na wanawake.

Katika mkataba huo, asilimia 25 ya mkopo unaoelekezwa nchini Tanzania utatolewa kwa biashara zinazomilikiwa na wanawake. Imebainishwa kuwa fedha hizo zitaongeza upatikanaji wa mikopo ya muda mrefu, ambayo imekuwa adimu kupatikana tangu kuzuka kwa janga la COVID-19.

Mikopo hiyo ni sehemu ya mpango wa IFC wa uwezeshaji wa tabaka la chini katika uchumi, ambao unalenga kusaidia taasisi za kifedha kutoa mikopo kwa wajasiriamali na wafanyabisahara wadogo ambao wameathiriwa zaidi na janga la UVIKO-19. Ufadhili wa IFC pia unasaidiwa na Dirisha la Sekta ya Binafsi la Jumuiya ya Maendeleo ya Kimataifa.

Wajasiriamali ni kundi muhimu kwa uchumi wa Tanzania na Burundi. Nchini Tanzania, wastani wa biashara ndogo ndogo na za kati ni milioni 3.2, huchangia asilimia 27 ya Pato la Taifa, na kuajiri zaidi ya watu milioni 5. Hata hivyo, takriban asilimia 81 ya biashara hizi hazina uwezo wa kupata fedha. Biashara nchini Burundi pia zinachangamoto kubwa katika kupata fedha.

"Fedha hizi zimekuja wakati muafaka na zitaongeza uwezo wetu wa kuwawezesha wajasiriamali wadogo na wa kati huku tukisaidia kuongeza usawa wa kijinsia katika mnyororo wa thamani. Benki ya CRDB tunaamini kuwa usawa wa kijinsia na uwezeshaji wa wanawake ni msingi wa maendeleo. Wanawake wameathirika kwa kiasi kikubwa sana janga la UVIKO-19, ambalo limepelekea changamoto nyingi za kiuchumina kuathiri moja kwa moja maisha ya familia na jamii zao,” alisema Abdulmajid Nsekela Mkurugenzi Mtendaji wa Benki ya CRDB wakati wa hafla ya utiaji sahihi.

Nsekela aliongezea kuwa ufadhili wa IFC utasaidia maendeleo ya sekta mbalimbali za maendeleo nchini, ikiwamo biashara, kilimo, afya, elimu, makazi, na miundombinu. Maeneo mengine ni pamoja na miradi inayozingatia mabadiliko ya tabianchi, wajasiriamali, pamoja na biashara zinazomilikiwa na wanawake kama ambavyo imesisitizwa katika mkataba huo wa ushirikiano baina ya Benki ya CRDB na IFC.

“Ushirikiano kati ya IFC na Benki ya CRDB utasaidia ukuaji wa sekta ya ujasiriamali katika nchi hizi ambapo mchango wao katika ajira na shughuli za kiuchumi ni mkubwa. Ushirikiano huu pia unajumuisha jitihada maalum katika kusaidia biashara zinazomilikiwa na wanawake na kuendeleza ushirikishwaji wa kijinsia, ikiwa ni sehemu muhimu ya mkakati wa IFC nchini Tanzania na Afrika," alibainisha Sérgio Pimenta, Makamu wa Rais wa IFC Afrika.
