The biggest project in Africa ni Gerd ya Ethiopia ya $4.5 billion.
GERD ambayo ilikwa iishe 5 years back is on its 10th year! Frank speaking GERD can not be counted as it has overshoot its construction period!

CAIRO – 25 February 2021: The efficiency of the controversial Grad Ethiopian Renaissance Dam (GERD) is only 30 percent, said Egyptian Minister of Water Resources and Irrigation Mohamed Abdel-Atti in an interview with Al-Watan newspaper on Thursday.

He added that Egypt hadn’t object building of other dams that were established on the Blue Nile by Ethiopia, noting that Ethiopia is unable to produce electricity.

Regarding the Sudanese stance towards the dam’s construction and operation, Abdel-Atti said that Ethiopia is worry because of what happened last year when Ethiopia began filling the dam reservoir without notifying Sudan, adding that Sudan was negatively affected.

“If there were coordination, the crisis would not have been occurred, especially since the filling of the dam last year did not benefit Ethiopia. It was for a political purpose and had no technical goal,” said Abdel Attai.

He explained that Addis Ababa is seeking to fill 13.5 billion cubic meters this year.

In mid-July 2020, Ethiopian authorities unilaterally carried out the first phase of the filling process with 4.9 billion cubic meters; and it is expected that the second phase of the filling would reach 13 billion cubic meters in July.

The dispute among Egypt, Sudan, and Ethiopia dates back to May 2011 when Ethiopia started building the dam; Egypt voiced concern over its water share [55.5 billion cubic meters].

As Democratic Congo is chairing the AU for the year 2021, it is attempting to revive stalling negotiations between Egypt, Sudan, and Ethiopia.

Coordinator of the Congolese unit in charge of African Union (AU) affairs, Professor Alphonse Ntumba, visited Egypt Wednesday to discuss the issue of the GERD.

In 2015, the three countries signed the Declaration of Principles, per which the downstream countries should not be negatively affected by the construction of the dam.

In October 2019, Egypt blamed Addis Ababa for hindering a final agreement concerning a technical problem, calling for activating Article No. 10 of the Declaration of Principles, which stipulates that if the three countries could not find a solution to these disputes, they have to ask for mediation.

Washington had brokered tripartite negotiations among the three countries, in the presence of the President of the World Bank (WB) starting from November 6, 2019 until February 27 and 28, 2020.

During these rounds of talks, tangible outcomes were agreed on among the three parties concerning the rules and mechanism of operating the dam and the filling process of the reservoir during drought and prolonged drought; however, an agreement was not sealed.

Constructions in the Grand Renaissance Dam started on April 2, 2011 at a cost of $4.8 billion. The dam is located on the Blue Nile with a capacity of 74 billion cubic meters, and is expected to generate up to 6,000 megawatts of power.

Hio project yenu ni ndogo sana kwa Africa. Actually nimekumbuka kitu. Gerd sio the biggest in Africa pengine tuseme Gerd ni the biggest in Eastern Africa.

The biggest single project in Africa right now ni Dangote refinery ambayo itacost $10 billion. Tayari ipo zaidi ya 70% complete. Halafu ukiongeza fertilizer plant ya $2.5 billion ambayo inajengwa kando yake na gas and oil pipelines basi hio Dangote complex inakuwa worth between $13 billion upto 15 billion. Lakini refinery yenyewe ni worth $10 billion and it is the biggest single project in African history.

Here is the rank Dangote Refinery then Total Uganda's refinery (around $4 bln) plus Hoima-Tanga pipeline ($3.5 bln) then Dangote fertilizer plant! Mind u negotiations for Tanzania's $30 bln LNG plant r ongoing n the decision will be influenced by Total EACOP as the notation that Tanzania can not come to terms with mega investors is no more there! If i were u i will not count GERD a project that has several times being stopped! Wacha wivu mshikaji kumbuka huu mreadi wa EACOP hamna cent inatolewa na Tanzania au Uganda it is by far the largest FDI in Africa hata Dangote refinery imechukua mkopo! Argue kama Economist plse emotions weka pembeni get over the pain of missing the deal! If i were u i will advice Kenya to raise her stake in Uganda's refinery as has been proven more feasible!

Hio $30 billion LNG plant negotiation zimefanyika kwa zaidi ya miaka mitano sasa. Halafu hapa tunazungumzia projects ambazo ujenzi wao umeshaanza. Hio $30 billion project hatutauzungumzia kwa sasa hadi angalau mazungumzo yakamilike na FID kutiwa saini. Endeleeni na mazungumzo kwanza, usiwe na haraka.

ndo maana sijaiweka kwa vile bado ila nakuonyesha chance ya Tanzania kuwa na largest FDI in Africa ni kubwa kwa hiyo usipumbazwe na miradi ya mikopo! When the GoT come to terms with Statoil n Exxonmobil the project will be announced and FID will be agreed upon! 5 years of negotions means Tanzania is not conviced of what it will get and i have confidence with the current regime as it has always demonstrated her intetions to have a win-win solution! BTW the GoT is still growing up gas demands in Tanzania n EACOP will further grow up that demand giving TPDC more bargaining powers in her negotiations with Statoil and Exxonmobil!

Mind u hivi ni vitu huwezi jua kama Mkenya as ur country is messing up with deals arising from her Lokichar oil! Argue kama Economist plse weka pembeni emotions n get over the pain of missing the deal! If i were u i will advice Kenya to raise her stake in Uganda's refinery as has been proven more feasible!

Refinery pia bado haijaanza kujengwa na hakuna guarantee kwamba itajengwa. Hata hatujui nani ndio atatoa funding ya kuijenga. Hii refinery haihusiani na Total. Pipeline ndio inahusiana na Total. Total hawajasema kwamba watajenga hio refinery. Infact hawana haja ya kujenga hio refinery. Wao wako interested na ujenzi wa pipeline tu. So tuweke refinery kando kwa sasa maana hata hatujui financier watakuwa ni kina nani. FID ya refinery ikitiwa saini ndio tutaizungumzia. Hata Kenya imekataa kujiunga na hio refinery maana kwa sasa ni white elephant, haina financiers wa kutosha. Tafuteni kwanza investors wa kuinvest kwa hio refinery. Au mtafute banks ambazo ziko ready kutoa loan.

Halafu sikuwa nataka kuvunja roho yako ila ni sharti nikupe ukweli. The Biggest project in Africa sasa hivi inaweza kuwa ni hii project ya Egypt building it's new capital city at a total cost of $58 billion. Yaani imekaribia Gdp ya Tanzania. Ujenzi umeshaanza kwa hivyo lazima niiweke kwa hii list maana hii list ni ya ujenzi wowote ambao umeshaanza.





Halafu mradi wenyewe unaharakishwa kama baiskeli ya kuibiwa. Haujengwi polepole.
Tazama video uone progress jinsi mradi unakimbizwa. Mind you in 21 months tayari unaweza kuona skyscrapers nyingi zinazojengwa
