Pata picha kwa speed hii, try to figure out, how will Chato be in 2035 after this heavy investment starting now if at all he will stay in power for 10 years, i hear a talk about textile factories but i read of gazetted GOT tenders about construction of an international Airport less than 140 km from what is soon to be Mwanza International Airport while Mtwara and Lindi with resources valued at over $400 bln that need over $30 bln worthy of investment; lays idle without the necessary infrastructure to support those massive investment projects i.e. mega LNG plant. A rival Mozambique has already built an international airport at Nacala to make the movement of poeple easier at both the Nacala port and Ruvuma basin where massive gas at over 160 Tcf compared to ours at 57 Tcf has been discovered!
