Recalling that the Government consulted with the private sector and civil society of Tanzania to
determine the priorities for the use of Millennium Challenge Account assistance and developed

responsible for an audit contemplated herein or otherwise conducted in furtherance of this
Compact, and any agents or representatives engaged by the MCC or the Government to conduct 6

(a) Government Audits. Except as the Parties may otherwise agree in writing, the
Government shall, on at least a semi-annual basis, conduct, or cause to be conducted, financial
audits of all disbursements of MCC Funding in accordance with this Section 3.8(a). The initial
financial audit shall cover the period from signing of this Compact until the earlier of the
following December 31 and June 30, and all subsequent financial audits shall cover each sixmonth
period thereafter ending December 31 and June 30 through the end of the Compact Term,

one hand, and a United States for-profit Covered Provider, on the other hand, that are financed
with MCC Funding state that the United States for-profit Covered Provider is subject to audit by

otherwise in writing.
(c) Corrective Actions. The Government shall use its best efforts to ensure that
Covered Providers take, where necessary, appropriate and timely corrective actions in response
to audits, consider whether a Covered Provider's audit necessitates adjustment of the
Government's records, and require each such Covered Provider to permit independent auditors to
have access to its records and financial statements as necessary.
(d) Audit by the MCC. The MCC shall have the right to arrange for and conduct
audits of the Government's use of MCC Funding.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
A. OVERVIEW
This Annex I to this Compact describes the Program that MCC Funding will support in Tanzania
during the Compact Term. The Program will include the Transport Sector Project, the Energy
Sector Project and the Water Sector Project (each, a "Project") and the activities related to the
Projects (each, a "Project Activity") as described in this Annex I.
1. Background.
The United Republic of Tanzania ("Tanzania"), comprised of the mainland and Zanzibar, is
surrounded by eight countries (consisting of Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Democratic
Republic of Congo, Zambia, Malawi, and Mozambique) and the Indian Ocean. Tanzania is a
country of approximately 39 million people. Nearly 36 percent of the mainland population and
49 percent of the Zanzibar population live below the poverty line. An inadequate transportation
network, an inadequate and unreliable supply of energy and a shortage of potable water are three
key constraints to economic growth and private investment in Tanzania. The Program is
designed specifically to address these constraints.
2. Program.
The Program consists of the Transport Sector Project, the Energy Sector Project, and the Water
Sector Project, as further described below.
The Parties may agree to modify or eliminate any Project or Project Activity, or to create a new
project or project activity, in writing signed by the Principal Representative of each Party
without amending this Compact; provided, however, that any such modification or elimination of
a Project or Project Activity, or creation of a new project or project activity, shall not cause the
amount of MCC Funding to exceed the aggregate amount specified in Section 2.1 of this
Compact, cause the Government's responsibilities or contribution of resources to be less than
specified in this Compact, or extend the Compact Term.
3. Consultative Process.
The consultative process for the Program was informed by, and anchored in, the consultative
process conducted in connection with the Government's National Strategy for Growth and
Reduction of Poverty which was finalized in 2005 (commonly referred to by the Swahili
acronyms "MKUKUTA" and "MKUZA," for the mainland and Zanzibar, respectively). The
Government organized national outreach activities and held various meetings relating to the
Program proposal with key stakeholders, including representatives from local governments,
members of parliament, and non-governmental organizations. The Government also engaged the
media to inform the public about the proposal for Millennium Challenge Account assistance with
a series of press releases, radio and television interviews, and press conferences. ANNEX I - 2
4. Environmental and Social Sustainability.
Tanzania enjoys a complex and rich environmental and social resource base. In order to achieve
long-term sustainable growth and to achieve maximum Program impact, these natural resources
(including abundant wildlife and ecological diversity, cultural resources, and coastal and marine
life) will be safeguarded through the implementation of several programmatic and sectoral
mitigation measures for the Compact Term, as follows:
(a) The Government shall comply with MCC Environmental Guidelines and the
gender policy delivered by the MCC to the Government or posted on the MCC Website or
otherwise publicly made available (the "MCC Gender Policy"). The Government also shall
adhere to Tanzanian environmental laws and regulations, including the Government of Tanzania
National Environmental Policy of 1997, the 2004 Environmental Management Act, and the 2005
Environmental Impact Assessment and Audit Regulations. In addition, for projects on Zanzibar,
the Government shall ensure that all implementing entities comply with the 1992 National
Environmental Policy for Zanzibar and the Environmental Management for Sustainable
Development Act (No. 2 of 1996).
(b) On-Going Consultation. To ensure the environmental and social sustainability of
the Program, MCA-Tanzania shall develop and implement plans for comprehensive public
consultations in which various stakeholders in the Program (including women and other
underrepresented groups) are afforded meaningful consultation and opportunities to provide their
inputs to the design and implementation of the Program, which public consultations will
primarily be conducted by the special consultative committees described in Section 2(c) of part E
of this Annex I. In compliance with the MCC Environmental Guidelines, all environmental and
social impact assessments ("ESIAs") and all other relevant environmental and social assessment
documentation will be posted on the MCA-Tanzania website.
(c) Gender Integration Action Plan. To maximize the positive social impacts of the
Program, MCA-Tanzania shall develop and implement a gender integration plan (for both the
mainland and Zanzibar) that includes, among other things, approaches for meaningful and
inclusive consultations with women and other underrepresented groups, a gender analysis for
each Project Activity, as appropriate, and strategies for incorporating findings of the gender
analysis into the design of each such Project Activity (the "Gender Integration Action Plan").
The Gender Integration Action Plan will be posted on the MCA-Tanzania website.
(d) HIV/AIDS Awareness. MCA-Tanzania shall develop and implement an action
plan for incorporating targeted HIV/AIDS awareness programs into all phases of implementation
of the Program. Such action plan specifically shall ensure (i) the incorporation of the HIV/AIDS
awareness programs into the terms of reference (and the bidding documents) for the relevant
contractors (including design or supervisory firms, construction firms, independent technical
auditing firms and any project management advisors) and (ii) independent monitoring of each
such contractor's compliance with these awareness programs throughout the Compact Term.
(e) Capacity Building; Resource Management. MCC Funding may be used:
(i) To provide capacity building to the National Environmental Management
Council ("NEMC") and the Zanzibar Department of Environment ("ZDOE") in order (1) to
enhance both NEMC's and ZDOE's abilities to address issues arising in connection with the ANNEX I - 3
implementation of the Program and (2) to support MCA-Tanzania's hiring of an environmental
and social oversight consultant to assist MCA-Tanzania in ensuring their compliance with
various environmental and social requirements under the Compact; and
(ii) To support community-based natural resource and wildlife management
programs being undertaken by other donors, particularly where deforestation, wildlife migration
and trafficking risks have been identified as possible in connection with the implementation of
certain Project Activities.
(f) Mitigation Measures. MCC Funding will be used to implement all environmental
and social mitigation measures identified in the relevant environmental assessments (or as
otherwise may be appropriate) of the Program, including (i) up to a maximum amount specified
by the MCC, compensation for physical and economic displacement of individuals, residences
and businesses affected by the rehabilitation, consistent with the World Bank's Operational
Policy 4.12, (ii) implementation of HIV/AIDS awareness plans, and (iii) continuing advocacy,
training and support for community-based resource management.
5. Proposals.
Public solicitations for proposals are anticipated to procure goods, works and services, as
appropriate, to implement all Projects. MCA-Tanzania will develop, subject to MCC approval, a
process for consideration of all such proposals. Notwithstanding the foregoing, MCA-Tanzania
also may consider, using a process developed by MCA-Tanzania and approved by the MCC, any
unsolicited proposals it receives.
B. TRANSPORT SECTOR PROJECT
1. Background.
Transportation infrastructure in Tanzania is inadequate to meet the needs of the country's widely
dispersed population; less than seven percent of Tanzania's roads are bitumen surfaced, with the
remainder gravel or earth. The Transport Sector Project addresses this constraint to growth by
reducing transport costs and travel times, which will facilitate access to social services and
markets and will increase tourism potential. Additionally, in areas where the roads are currently
impassable for certain parts of the year, road rehabilitation will provide year-round access to
markets, thus facilitating increased agricultural activity.
Similarly, access to Mafia Island is limited by the poor condition of its airport and lack of
feasible alternative transportation options. Resurfacing the airport's runway and improving other
airport facilities will allow for easier, more efficient, and safer access to the island, resulting in
increased tourist and business travel to and from the mainland and additional jobs on the island.
2. Project.
The Transport Sector Project consists of the following Project Activities:
(a) Mainland Trunk Roads Activity.
MCC Funding will be used to make improvements to three trunk roads on the mainland.
Improvement of any such trunk roads will only be undertaken under this Compact and funded ANNEX I - 4
with MCC Funding if all necessary construction and construction supervision contracts for such
trunk road are executed and in effect prior to the first anniversary of the entry into force of this
Compact. Specifically, MCC Funding will support:
(i) Rehabilitation of the following three trunk roads:
(1) Tanga – Horohoro Road. Upgrading from gravel to asphalt
concrete of the 68 km stretch of highway located in northeast
Tanzania connecting the seaport of Tanga with Horohoro at the
Kenyan border;
(2) Tunduma – Sumbawanga Road. Upgrading from gravel to double
bituminous surfacing of the southernmost 224 km stretch of the T9
trunk road (known as the western corridor), with the exception of
the approximately two km stretch in Tunduma and the
approximately eight km stretch in Sumbawanga, both of which will
be paved with asphalt concrete; and
(3) Mtwara Corridor. Upgrading from earth to double bituminous
surfacing two sections of the Mtwara Corridor (known as the
southern corridor) consisting of (A) the 61 km stretch between
Namtumbo and Songea and (B) 78 km stretch from Peramiho
Junction (that is about 20 km west of Songea) to Mbinga.
(ii) Construction supervision of all rehabilitated roads under the Mainland
Trunk Roads Activity.
(iii) Additional environmental assessments, together with any resulting
resettlement action plans ("RAPs") (consistent with World Bank Operational Policy 4.12) and
environmental management plans ("EMPs"), each as satisfactory to the MCC, and wildlife
migration studies and aforementioned community-based natural resource and wildlife
management programs, as needed.
(iv) Capacity building for the Tanzania National Road Agency
("TANROADS") related to new staff and equipment required to manage the Mainland Trunk
Roads Activity.
(v) Assistance to TANROADS in preparation of design documentation and
bid packages.
TANROADS will be the Implementing Entity (as defined below) for the Mainland Trunk Roads
Activity.
(b) Zanzibar Rural Roads Activity.
MCC Funding will be used to make improvements to selected rural roads on the Zanzibar island
of Pemba. Specifically, MCC Funding will support:
(i) Feasibility studies, final design, and any additional environmental and
social assessments, together with any resulting RAPs (consistent with World Bank Operational ANNEX I - 5
Policy 4.12) and EMPs, each as needed and as satisfactory to the MCC, of the following five
roads (each identified together with its approximate length): (1) Mzambarauni Takao – Finya
Road (8.3 km), (2) Mzambarauni Karimu – Mapofu Road (8.3 km), (3) Bahanasa – DayaMtambwe
Road (13.1 km), (4) Chwale – Kojani Road (two km) and (5) Kipangani – Kangagani
Road (three km).
(ii) Rehabilitation and posting of signage and incorporation of other safety
improvements of the roads selected from the five roads described in Section 2(b)(i) above based
on, among others, technical construction plans capable of being completed during the Compact
Term, reasonable conformity to the priorities of Zanzibar's transportation master plan, and an
economic rate of return methodology acceptable to the MCC (agreed upon between the Parties
prior to the commencement of any feasibility study described in Section 2(b)(i) above).
(iii) Project management and construction supervision of all rehabilitated roads
under the Zanzibar Rural Roads Activity.
An engineering firm will be hired, following an international competitive procurement and
selection process, to implement this Project Activity. The Government will ensure that the
Ministry of Communications and Transport of Zanzibar cooperates with MCA-Tanzania to
oversee this selected firm.
(c) Road Maintenance Activity.
MCC Funding will be used to enhance Tanzania's capacity to maintain its road network.
Specifically, MCC Funding will support priority institutional and capacity limitations, as
identified and agreed to by the MCC and the Government prior to the second anniversary of the
entry into force of this Compact. Such support may be provided, among other ways, in
improvements of strategic maintenance planning, and management of routine and periodic
maintenance contracts of TANROADS and the Ministry of Communication and Transport of
Zanzibar.
(d) Mafia Island Airport Activity.
MCC Funding will be used to rehabilitate and upgrade the airport on Mafia Island. MCC
Funding will support:
(i) Refurbishment of the runway, apron and taxiway, establishment of
boundary security, refurbishment of the fire station, refurbishment of the terminal building and
its water supply, and installation of communication equipment, the scale and scope of which will
be contingent on the findings of a strategic environmental assessment.
(ii) Project coordination and construction supervision for the activities
described in Section 2(d)(i) above.
(iii) Additional environmental assessments, together with any resulting RAPs
(consistent with World Bank Operational Policy 4.12) and EMPs, each as needed and as
satisfactory to the MCC. ANNEX I - 6
(iv) Capacity building at the Tanzania Airports Authority ("TAA") related to
improvements in strategic maintenance planning and management of routine and periodic
maintenance contracts.
TAA will be the Implementing Entity for the Mafia Island Airport Activity.
3. Beneficiaries.
The upgrading of mainland and Zanzibar roads will benefit users of the roads directly by
reducing transportation costs and travel times. In addition, individuals living near the roads will
indirectly benefit from increased access to social services and markets. The improvements to the
Mafia Island airport will directly benefit approximately 12,000 passengers traveling to the island
each year, while indirectly benefiting the population of the island, particularly those engaged in
the service sector.
4. Donor Coordination; Role of Private Sector and Civil Society.
The MCC, together with the Government, will continue to pursue opportunities to coordinate
with the "Joint Technical Committee," the principal development partner for projects in the
transportation sector in Tanzania, consisting of representatives from the European Union, World
Bank, African Development Bank ("AfDB") and the governments of Norway, Denmark and
Japan. The mainland roads included in the Transport Sector Project originated in the
Government's ten-year "Transport Sector Investment Program" (also known as "TSIP"), which
has been reviewed, discussed and approved by the Joint Technical Committee and other
stakeholders.
The implementation of the Mafia Island Airport Activity will be coordinated with the feasibility
study, the ESIA and design for Tanzanian airport upgrades (including airside pavements and
other facilities) currently being funded by the World Bank.
Private sector firms are expected to participate in the bids, and perform, studies, design,
construction, and construction supervision associated with the Transport Sector Project.
5. United States Agency for International Development ("USAID").
While the USAID currently does not focus specifically on Tanzania's transportation sector, the
MCC and the USAID, with the cooperation of the Government, will work to identify potential
opportunities for coordination on the Transport Sector Project, including opportunities for
community-based natural resource and wildlife management programs within those regions
affected by roads rehabilitated under the Transport Sector Project.
6. Sustainability.
In order to provide continued institutional support for the Transport Sector Project, the
Government will undertake certain commitments described in Section 7 below. The Road
Maintenance Activity will enhance the Transport Sector Project's sustainability by improving the
Government's capability to perform maintenance (both on the mainland and on Zanzibar). The
Government is expected to commit additional resources to maintain the roads rehabilitated under
the Transport Sector Project. While it is unlikely that the Transport Sector Project will result in
any significant negative environmental and social impacts, the potential direct, indirect, induced, ANNEX I - 7
and cumulative environmental impacts of the Transport Sector Project will be examined through
the execution of appropriate environmental assessments to be conducted during the final design
phase of the Project Activities of the Transport Sector Project, and appropriate mitigation
measures will be implemented. The Mafia Island Airport Activity will be subject to the results
of a strategic environmental assessment. This assessment will help ensure that all MCC
investments in the airport result in improved conditions for tourism and private sector growth
and are implemented in the context of sustainable long-term development with a focus on natural
resource and wildlife management.
7. Policy, Legal and Regulatory Reforms.
The implementation by the Government, to the satisfaction of the MCC in its discretion, of the
policy, legal and regulatory reforms described below shall be conditions precedent to the
specified Disbursements.
(a) Prior to the initial disbursement of MCC Funding for the Mainland Roads
Activity, the National Road Act (as submitted to the President for Signature in July 2007) shall
have been enacted, and is in full force and effect, and the National Road Safety Policy and
Strategy (in form and substance as prepared by the Ministry of Infrastructure Development in
May 2007) shall have been adopted by the Government.
(b) In the interest of long-term sustainability of the mainland roads network, the
Government's expenditures for road maintenance shall be increased each Tanzanian fiscal year
during the Compact Term, which increase will take into account inflation and maintenance needs
of existing, improved and newly constructed roads.
(c) In the interest of long-term sustainability of the Zanzibar roads network, the
Government of Zanzibar's expenditures for road maintenance shall be increased each Tanzanian
fiscal year during the Compact Term, which increase will take into account inflation and
maintenance needs of existing, improved and newly constructed roads.
(d) Prior to the initial disbursement of MCC Funding for construction on the
Mainland Roads Activity, the Government shall finalize the TSIP or any shorter-term plan based
on the TSIP acceptable to the Joint Technical Committee that provides funding priority to those
projects identified in the TSIP.
(e) Prior to the initial disbursement of MCC Funding for construction on the
Mainland Roads Activity, the Government shall prepare and begin implementation of a plan, in
consultation with the Joint Technical Committee, for future legislative reform in the
transportation sector, including the increased autonomy of TANROADS.
C. ENERGY SECTOR PROJECT
1. Background.
Tanzania has one of the lowest electrification rates in the world, with only about ten percent of
the population benefiting from electric power service. Where electricity is available, the quality
of supply is poor and blackouts and service interruptions are common. Consequently,
businesses, individuals, and service providers suffer from the lack of access to reliable,
affordable and modern energy services. The Energy Sector Project aims to improve the quality ANNEX I - 8
and increase the quantity of electricity to businesses and households, thereby increasing
investment potential. The Energy Sector Project will add new supply and transmission capacity
to improve reliability and quality of energy and new distribution capacity to extend access to
electricity to communities and businesses not currently served with electricity.
2. Project.
The Energy Sector Project consists of the three Project Activities described below. Tanzania
Electric Supply Company Limited ("TANESCO") will be the Implementing Entity for each
Project Activity of the Energy Sector Project. For the Zanzibar Interconnector Activity,
TANESCO will coordinate and consult with Zanzibar Electricity Corporation ("ZECO").
(a) Zanzibar Interconnector Activity.
MCC Funding will be used to increase the electric power supply to Zanzibar's Unguja Island by
laying a submarine transmission cable, to make associated investments to increase the capacity
of certain overhead transmission lines and to rehabilitate the main substation near Zanzibar
Town. Specifically, MCC Funding will support:
(i) Final design, and an environmental assessment, together with any
resulting RAPs (consistent with World Bank Operational Policy 4.12) and EMPs, each as needed
and as satisfactory to the MCC, and occupational health and safety standards.
(ii) Construction and installation of an approximately 40 km-long, 132kV,
100MW capacity submarine electric transmission cable (including telecom fiber optic shield
wire) from Ras Kiromoni on the mainland to Ras Fumba on Unguja Island.
(iii) Installation of a 132kV switchgear at Ubungo substation and laying of an
approximately 20 km-long, supplementary 132kV overhead line along an existing transmission

network along the Kigoma, Uvinza and Kasulu corridor to serve approximately 21,000
customers. Specifically, MCC Funding will support: ANNEX I - 9
(i) Final design, and supplemental environmental and social assessments
consistent with the sustainability issues identified below, together with any resulting RAPs
(consistent with World Bank Operational Policy 4.12) and EMPs, each as needed and as
satisfactory to the MCC, and occupational health and safety standards.
(ii) Engineering and construction of (1) civil works including an
approximately 24 km access road, a 300 m long concrete faced rockfill dam (of which about 200
m will be eight m high), and an approximately 650 m long headrace canal, (2) electromechanical
works including the powerhouse consisting of turbines, eight MW of power
generators and a voltage step-up substation, and (3) hydro-mechanical works including intake
gates, bottom outlets, and two steel penstocks (estimated to be 110 m long).
(iii) Engineering and construction of (1) transmission and distribution line
extensions including up to 392 km of 33kV distribution lines, ten km of 11kV lines, and 171 km
of low voltage lines to distribute power generated at the hydropower plant described in this
Section 2(b) to Kigoma, Uvinza, Kasulu and small settlements along the corridor, and (2)
associated upgrades including step-down substations, electrical protection and related minor civil
works.
(iv) Capacity building and technical support for TANESCO, including
assistance with preparation of the engineering design and bidding documents, tender review,
supervision of construction, project management, and quality control.
(v) Project coordination and construction supervision of all improvements and

(vi) Assessment and design of a public-private partnership for the independent
operation of the mini-grid system in Kigoma which includes the hydropower plant, transmission
and distribution network, and service delivery, and competitive procurement of an operator
concessionaire.
(c) Distribution Systems Rehabilitation and Extension Activity.
MCC Funding will be used to rehabilitate existing power distribution assets and to extend the
distribution network in six regions (consisting of Mwanza, Iringa, Mbeya, Dodoma, Tanga and
Morogoro) to serve approximately 215,000 customers. Specifically, MCC Funding will support:
(i) Final design, and environmental and social assessment frameworks,
together with any resulting RAPs (consistent with World Bank Operational Policy 4.12) and
EMPs, each as needed and as satisfactory to the MCC, and occupational health and safety
standards.
(ii) Construction of up to 247 distribution line extensions consisting of new
33kV, 11kV, and low voltage lines and customer connections in the six regions.
(iii) Reinforcement and rehabilitation of up to 22 substations in the six regions,
including new and replacement transformers and switchgear. ANNEX I - 10
(iv) Capacity building and technical support for TANESCO, including
assistance with preparation of the engineering design and bidding documents, tender review,
supervision of construction, project management, and quality control.
(v) Project coordination and construction supervision of all improvements and
upgrades under the Distribution Systems Rehabilitation and Extension Activity.
3. Beneficiaries.
The total number of beneficiaries of the Energy Sector Project by 2020 is estimated to be
252,000 households and businesses receiving better quality and availability of electricity, as well
as approximately 88,000 previously un-served households and businesses receiving electricity
for the first time.
The Malagarasi Hydropower and Kigoma Distribution Activity is expected to directly benefit
approximately 13,000 newly served households and businesses by 2020 through new
connections to the electricity grid; an additional 7,000 households, businesses and institutions
(such as port operations, fish and agricultural processing facilities, tourism facilities, and a
hospital) are likely to benefit from power that is more available and reliable, less costly, and of
better quality. In addition, the Distribution Systems Rehabilitation and Extension Activity is
expected to reach approximately 47,000 beneficiaries through newly served households and
businesses by 2020 and 187,000 beneficiaries through existing households and businesses.
Agricultural processing, small-scale retail and the service industry (such as commercial retailers
and restaurants) are among the main sectors that will benefit from the availability of increased,
more reliable, and better quality power supply. The Zanzibar Interconnector Activity is expected
to provide significant benefits to energy consumers in Unguja and to assist growth in its vital
tourism sector.
4. Donor Coordination; Role of Private Sector and Civil Society.
Donors, including the governments of Sweden, Norway, Japan, the World Bank and the AfDB,
among others, play an active role in improving Tanzania's energy sector through technical
assistance and infrastructure projects. The Energy Sector Project has benefited significantly
from these donors' activities. For example, the Malagarasi hydropower plant project benefited
from a pre-feasibility study financed by the AfDB. The MCC's due diligence review of the
Distribution Systems Rehabilitation and Extension Activity benefited from active support of the
Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency and the World Bank.
The Government has been engaged in an extensive consultative process that allowed civil
society, along with the business community, to discuss local needs and priorities relating to the
Energy Sector Project. Such consultation is expected to continue during the implementation of
the Energy Sector Project.
5. USAID.
The USAID currently does not have activities specifically in Tanzania's energy sector.
However, as appropriate, the MCC and the USAID, with the cooperation of the Government,
will work to identify potential opportunities for coordination on the Energy Sector Project,
especially in connection with community-based natural resource and wildlife management
programs in proximity to the Project Activities of the Energy Sector Project. ANNEX I - 11
6. Sustainability.
To enhance institutional sustainability of the Energy Sector Project, the Government will
undertake certain reforms described in Section 7 below. Hiring of qualified engineering, design,
construction and supervisory firms to implement the Energy Sector Project, and provision of
necessary technical assistance to TANESCO is expected to contribute to the sustainability of the
Energy Sector Project as well.
While it is unlikely that the Energy Sector Project will result in any significant negative
environmental impacts, the potential direct, indirect, induced, and cumulative environmental
impacts of the Energy Sector Project will be examined through the execution of appropriate
environmental assessments to be conducted during the final design phase of the Energy Sector
Project, and will be addressed through implementation of appropriate mitigation measures.
Specifically, potentially significant resettlement issues associated with the current transmission
line design under the Zanzibar Interconnector Activity will be mitigated through rerouting of the
cable through open or less densely populated areas. In addition, under the Malagarasi
Hydropower and Kigoma Distribution Activity, detailed studies will be required to assess the
impact of reduced water flows and determine minimum ecological flows, to assess needs for fish
migration to spawning grounds, and to study water quality impacts and potential impacts of
water-related diseases. Detailed access road alignments and distribution line alignments will be
completed and assessed, and land acquisition needs confirmed to allow for the preparation of a
RAP. Further study on the Malagarasi hydropower plant's relationship with other proposed
hydropower and irrigation activities on the Malagarasi River and potential cumulative effects, if
any, will be required, in addition to considerations of both upstream and downstream usage. The
environmental assessment to be undertaken in connection with the Distribution Systems
Rehabilitation and Extension Activity will include special attention to the Iringa site, in which
some of the distribution lines will cross within the boundaries of the Ruaha National Park.
7. Policy, Legal and Regulatory Reforms.
The implementation by the Government, to the satisfaction of the MCC in its discretion, of the
policy, legal and regulatory reforms described below shall be conditions precedent to the
specified Disbursements.
(a) An Electricity Act, agreeable to stakeholders including the MCC, is enacted and
in full force and effect prior to the initial disbursement of MCC Funding for the Energy Sector
Project.
(b) The Government shall support TANESCO's corporate objective of moving
towards financial self-sufficiency through, at a minimum, tariff reform that reflects full cost
recovery, prior to the initial disbursement of MCC Funding for the Energy Sector Project.
(c) The Government shall ensure that the composition of TANESCO's board of
directors is such that a majority of board members are independent and professional members,
with private sector representation, prior to the initial disbursement of MCC Funding for the
Energy Sector Project. ANNEX I - 12
D. WATER SECTOR PROJECT
1. Background.
Tanzania faces a serious shortage of access to potable water, resulting in a high incidence of
water-related diseases, decreased workforce productivity, and constrained business growth. The
Water Sector Project includes investments in bulk water supply for two urban areas, Dar es
Salaam and Morogoro, which investments will increase the quantity and reliability of potable
water for domestic and commercial use. By increasing the volume of water supply, the Water
Sector Project is expected to reduce the incidence of water-related disease, increase time
available for productive activities including education, promote greater investments in physical
capital, and, ultimately, lead to an increase in income.
2. Project.
The Water Sector Project consists of the three Project Activities described below. These Project
Activities are expected, individually and jointly, to improve significantly the water supply to Dar
es Salaam and Morogoro as described below.
(a) Lower Ruvu Plant Expansion Activity.
MCC Funding will be used to expand the capacity of the Lower Ruvu water treatment plant
serving the Dar es Salaam area, from about 180 million liters per day to approximately 270
million liters per day. Specifically, MCC Funding will support:

and associated works.
(iv) Capacity building and technical support for MORUWASA.
(v) Project coordination and construction supervision of all improvements and
upgrades under the Morogoro Water Supply Activity.
MORUWASA will be the Implementing Entity for the Morogoro Water Supply Activity.
3. Beneficiaries.
The Water Sector Project is expected to benefit approximately 616,000 households in Dar es
Salaam and approximately 51,000 households in Morogoro by providing better quality and more
reliable water supply. Businesses relying on network water will also benefit from these service ANNEX I - 14
improvements. Benefits from the Project Activities under the Water Sector Project include
reductions in water-related disease, increased time available for productive activities such as
labor and education, and increased investments in physical and human capital.
4. Donor Coordination; Role of Private Sector and Civil Society.
All the components of the Water Sector Project are priority projects identified under the Water
Sector Development Program 2006-2025 ("WSDP"). The WSDP was designed under the sector
wide approach to planning with the objectives of equity of water access, water managment
capacity, and proper maintenance of water and sanitation sytstems, use of environmentally sound
technologies and effective water tariffs, billing and revenue collection mechanism. The donors
participating in the WSDP include the governments of Germany, the Netherlands, France, and
Japan as well as the United Nations Development Programme, the United Nations Children's
Fund, Food and Agriculture Organization and the AfDB (collectively referred to as the
"Development Partners Group - Water"). The MCC has been coordinating with the
Development Partners Group - Water, and will continue to explore opportunities to use various
features of the WSDP, to the maximum extent possible, in order to reduce transaction costs and
avoid building parallel structures.
Private sector firms are expected to participate in the bids, and perform, studies, design,
construction, and construction supervision associated with the Water Sector Project.
5. USAID.
Various USAID projects in Tanzania include components related to the water sector, although no
current USAID program is exclusively focused on the water sector. The USAID is actively
engaged in water policy matters in Tanzania, including through the USAID's participation in the
Development Partners Group - Water. The MCC expects to work with the USAID to identify
potential opportunities for coordination with respect to the Water Sector Project.
6. Sustainability.
By strengthening and enhancing operations of the water and sewerage authorities in two major
urban locations, the Water Sector Project seeks to enhance the sustainable operation of
Tanzania's water sector. The water and sewerage authorities will be required to submit rate
cases aimed at achieving operational and maintenance financial sustainability within the
Compact Term and a sustainable trend for recovery of asset depreciation. While it is unlikely
that the Water Sector Project will result in any significant negative environmental impacts, the
potential direct, indirect, induced, and cumulative environmental impacts of the Water Sector
Project will be examined through the execution of appropriate environmental assessments to be
conducted during the final design phase of the Water Sector Project, and appropriate mitigation
measures will be implemented. For those Project Activities of the Water Sector Project that
relate to water supply, MCA-Tanzania will ensure that feasibility studies include efforts to
identify the most appropriate and environmentally sustainable water sources to meet future
demand and are available to the poor. In addition, MCA-Tanzania will ensure that EMPs are
developed, implemented and monitored for all Project Activities of the Water Sector Project,
each in accordance with the provisions of this Compact and any relevant supplemental
agreements. MCA-Tanzania also will pay particular attention to gender issues to support the ANNEX I - 15
sustainability and enhance the design of each Project Activity of the Water Sector Project
through the Gender Integration Action Plan and final design.
E. IMPLEMENTATION
The implementation framework and the plan for ensuring adequate governance, oversight,
management, monitoring and evaluation and fiscal accountability for the use of MCC Funding is
summarized below. The MCC and the Government shall enter into the PIA, and any other
agreements in furtherance of this Compact, all of which, together with this Compact, shall set out
certain rights, responsibilities, duties and other terms relating to the implementation of the
Program.
1. MCC.

SUMMARY OF MONITORING AND EVALUATION PLAN
This Annex III to this Compact (the "M&E Annex") generally describes the components of the
monitoring and evaluation plan (the "M&E Plan") for the Program. Each capitalized term in
this Annex III shall have the same meaning given such term elsewhere in this Compact.
1. Overview.
The MCC and the Government (or a mutually acceptable Government affiliate or permitted
designee) shall formulate, agree to and the Government shall implement, or cause to be
implemented, an M&E Plan that specifies (a) how progress toward the Compact Goal and the
Project Objectives will be monitored, ("Monitoring Component"), (b) process and timeline for
the monitoring of planned, ongoing, or completed Project Activities to determine their efficiency
and effectiveness, and (c) a methodology for assessment and rigorous evaluation of the outcomes
and impact of the program ("Evaluation Component"). Information regarding the Program's
performance, including the M&E Plan, and any amendments or modifications thereto, as well as
progress and other reports, will be made publicly available on the MCA-Tanzania Website and
elsewhere.
2. Program Logic.
The Tanzania program monitoring and evaluation plan shall be built on the program logic model
below, which is a graphical representation of the program showing the sequence of results and
the causal links between outcomes, objectives, and ultimately the Compact Goal.
The Program's focus on infrastructure is an essential part of addressing Tanzania's development
challenges in accordance with the MKUKUTA/MKUZA. The Transport Sector Project is based
on the logic that improvements in the road network and airports can reduce transport costs to
regional, national and international markets, thereby catalyzing growth in sectors that rely on
MCA-Tanzania Compact Goal:

good transportation links, such as agriculture and tourism. The Energy Sector Project will
provide reliable electricity to households and businesses, allowing for an increase in the scale
and scope of productive activities and increased value added for businesses in project areas. The
logic behind the Water Sector Project is that by increasing the supply of potable water for
households, mortality and morbidity from water-related diseases will decrease, leading to
increased investment human and physical capital. In addition, increasing the reliability of
potable water should lead to increased investments in productive assets by business.
3. Monitoring Component.
(a) Indicators. The M&E Plan shall measure the results of the Program using
quantitative, objective and reliable data ("Indicators"). Each Indicator will have one or more
expected results that specify the expected value and the expected time by which that result will
be achieved ("Target"). The M&E Plan will measure and report four types of Indicators. First,
the Compact Goal Indicators (each, a "Goal Indicator") will measure the impact of the Program
on the incomes of Tanzanians who participate or are covered by the Program (collectively,
"Beneficiaries"). Second, Objective Indicators (each, an "Objective Indicator") will measure
the final results of the Projects in order to monitor their success in meeting the Project
Objectives. Third, Outcome Indicators (each, an "Outcome Indicator") will measure the
intermediate results of goods and services delivered under each Project in order to provide an
early measure of the likely impact of the Projects on the Project Objectives. Fourth, Project
Activity Indicators (each, an "Activity Indicator")(each of Goal Indicator, Objective Indicator,
Outcome Indicator and Activity Indicator, an "Indicator") will measure the delivery of key
goods and services in order to monitor the pace of Project Activity execution. For each Outcome
Indicator, Objective Indicator, and Goal Indicator, the M&E Plan will define a strategy for
obtaining and verifying the value of such Indicator prior to undertaking any activity that affects
the value of such Indicator (such value, a "Baseline"). All Indicators will be disaggregated by
gender, income level and age, to the extent practicable. Subject to prior written approval from
the MCC, MCA-Tanzania may add Indicators or refine the Targets of existing Indicators.
(i) Goal Indicators. The M&E Plan shall contain the Goal Indicators listed in
the table below, with their definitions, unit of measurement, baseline, and Year 5 with and
without Projects. ANNEX III - 3

(b) Data Collection and Reporting. The M&E Plan shall establish guidelines for data
collection and a reporting framework, including a schedule of reporting requirements and
responsible parties. The M&E Plan will use both qualitative and quantitative methods for data
collection. The M&E Plan shall outline various data collection methodologies, assessments, and
surveys necessary to report the results of all Indicators included in the M&E Plan. It will also
draw quantitative information from the National Bureau of Statistics and other large household
surveys.
(c) Data Quality Reviews. From time to time, as determined in the M&E Plan or as
otherwise requested by the MCC, the quality of the data gathered through the M&E Plan shall be
reviewed by an independent third party to ensure that data reported are as valid, reliable, and
timely as resources will allow. The objective of any data quality review will be to verify the
quality and the consistency of performance data, across different implementation units and
reporting institutions. Such data quality reviews also will serve to identify where those levels of
quality are not possible, given the realities of data collection.
(d) Management Information System. The M&E Plan shall describe the information
system that will be used to collect data, store, process and deliver information to relevant
stakeholders in such a way that the Program information is at all times accessible and useful to
those who wish to use it. The system development will take into consideration the requirement
and data needs of the components of the Program, and will be aligned with the MCC's existing
systems, other service providers, and government ministries.
4. Evaluation Component.
The Evaluation Component of the M&E Plan shall detail the methodology, process, and timeline
for analyzing the Program efficiency, effectiveness, impact, and sustainability. At a minimum,
this component shall include at least two types of evaluations, an Impact Evaluation and a Final
Evaluation. With the agreement of the MCC, the Evaluation Component also may include ad
hoc evaluations and special studies. The cost of an independent evaluation or special study may
be paid from MCC Funding.
(a) Impact Evaluation. The MCC will engage an independent evaluator to conduct an
impact evaluation of specific Project Activities that lend themselves to rigorous evaluation
("Impact Evaluation"). The Impact Evaluation will be designed using rigorous methods to ANNEX III - 9
address selection bias and attribution issues. It will also take into consideration the anticipated
time lag for each Project to realize expected benefits. It is anticipated that the Impact Evaluation
may extend beyond the Compact Term and flexibility of design should be a priority. The
following table outlines the methodologies currently under consideration, which may be
modified to accommodate changes in Program design. In all cases, the most rigorous method
possible will be implemented.

(b) Final Evaluation. MCA-Tanzania, with the prior written approval of the MCC,
will engage an independent evaluator to conduct an evaluation at the expiration or termination of
this Compact Term ("Final Evaluation") or at the MCC's election, the MCC will engage such
an independent evaluator. The Final Evaluation must at a minimum evaluate the efficiency and
effectiveness of the Program and provide lessons learned that may be applied to similar projects.
(c) Ad Hoc Evaluations and Special Studies. The M&E Plan shall identify and make
provision for special studies, ad-hoc evaluations, and research that may be needed as part of the
monitoring and evaluating of this Compact. Either the MCC or MCA-Tanzania may request
special studies or ad-hoc evaluations of Projects, Project Activities, or the Program as a whole
prior to the expiration of this Compact Term. If MCA-Tanzania engages an evaluator, the
evaluator will be an externally contracted independent source selected by MCA-Tanzania,
subject to the prior written approval of the MCC, following a tender in accordance with the MCC
Program Procurement Guidelines, and otherwise in accordance with any relevant
Implementation Letter or supplemental agreement. ANNEX III - 10
5. Other Components of the M&E Plan.
In addition to the Monitoring and Evaluation Components, the M&E Plan shall include the
following components for the Program, Projects and Project Activities, including, where
appropriate, roles and responsibilities of the relevant parties and Providers:
(a) Coordination of data collection. Efforts to synchronize data collection with
relevant national initiatives including the WSDP performance monitoring framework,
MKUKUTA monitoring plan and the MKUZA monitoring plan.
(b) M&E Budget. A detailed cost estimate for all components of the M&E Plan.
(c) Assumptions and Risks. Any assumptions and risks external to the Program that
underlie the accomplishment of the Project Objectives and Project Activity Outcomes; provided,
however, that such assumptions and risks shall not excuse performance of the Parties, unless
otherwise expressly agreed to in writing by the Parties.

Muhongo ndio waziri bora kupata kutokea Tanzania

 

[MAHORO]

Muhongo ni tunu ya Taifa, Watanzania tunajivunia kuwa na waziri kama prof. Muhongo

... Mimi Mbona Sijivunii Kuwa Na Waziri Mwizi, Mwongo Na Mwenye Dharau Kwa Watanzani Kama Huyo, Mtetezi Wa Mafisadi. Eti Fedha Za Escrow Sio Za Uma?

 

[Mkoroshokigoli]

Cybercrime umepewa shiling ngap kumtetea huyo Profesa wako?

 

[Daudi Mchambuzi]

Hakuna maswali ya kujibu hapo. Ni porojo tu za mmiliki wa IPP

team Muhongo mnatumia nguvu badala ya akili kujibu hoja.
jibu maswali haraka.

 

[Utotole]

Kuongeza kwa deni ni pamoja na kwenye uwekeza muhongo katumia pesa nyingi sana kuwekeza na kusambaza umeme vijijini,uwekezaji pia unalenga kuifanya tanesco initegemee kitu amabacho mafisadi hawataki badala yake wanataka iendelee kuwa hoi ili waendelee kununua umeme wa dharula.

Nilikuwa sijui kuwa hizo nguzo alizosambaza "zinazalisha umeme" zenyewe...na hiyo ni maendeleo! Kama sivyo, keshokutwa makampuni mithili ya IPTL na Richmond yataongezeka kwa kisingizio kuwa sasa mahitaji ya umeme ni makubwa ZAIDIII kuliko uwezo wa TANESCO kuzalisha kutokana na nguzo zilizosambazwa huko "vijijini". Walaji wanaendelea kula tu.

 

[idoyo]

1) Hivi dalali hua hapati pesa, mbona yeye hajatajwa?
2) Mnashangaa kwa nini deni limeongezeka, mbona hamshangai kusambaa kwa nguzo nchi nzima au mlijua anatoa pesa mfukoni kwake?

labda ndio waleeee walobeba na viroba pale stanbic.

 

[Utotole]

Muhongo ndio waziri bora kupata kutokea Tanzania

Nadhani ni bora ukimlinganisha ni viatu vya bora

Team Buku 7, kuna nini hapa mmekataa kujibu kabisa

Re: Wanaomtetea Prof. Muhongo, jibuni maswali haya...
REGINALD MENGI SASA VITA RASMI NA SOSPETER MUHONGO KUPITIA VYOMBO VYAKE VYA VYA HABAR


Habari za jumatatu wadau.
Leo ukurasa wa mbele kabisa wa *gazeti la NIPASHE umepambwa na picha kubwa ya Waziri wa Nishati na Madini, Mh. Sospeter Muhongo huku kukiwa na kichwa cha habari kinachosomeka "WANAOMTETEA PROF. MUHONGO WAJIBU HAYA"
1.ametajwa kuwa dalali uchotwaji wafedhaza ESCROW
2. Chini ya utawala wake deni la TANESCO limepaa maradufu kufikia bi.456
3. Umeme bado hautabiriki, unakatika kila uchwao
4.mikatab ya Madini haijapitiwa kama alivyoahidi




Ndugu wapendwa ni dhahiri hayo yanatokana na ripoti ya PAC bungeni kuhusiana na fedha za Tegeta ESCROW.
Lakini pia kujikumbushe kuwa kwa takribani kipindi chote baada ya ripoti ya PAC bungeni kumekuwepo na mijadala kwenye mitandao ya kijamii na hata nje ya mitandao ya kijamii kuwa Mfanyabiashara, REGINALD MENGI yuko nyuma ya sakata la tuhuma dhidi ya Waziri wa Nishati na Madini, Mh. Sospeter Muhongo la kutaka aondolewe kwenye nafasi ya Waziri wa Nishati na Madini *kwa kile kinachosemekana ni kuchukizwa na kauli ya Waziri Muhongo Bungeni kuwa wanaosema wananyiwa kuwekeza kwenye vitalu vya gesi kama wazawa ni hawana uwezo kwa kuwekeza bali ni MADALALI ili wachukue vitalu na kuwaita wageni waje kuwekeza.
Swali la kujiuliza hapa. KWA NINI Mh. MUHONGO aitwe DALALI kwenye pesa za TEGETA ESCROW *baada ya kutoa kauli ya UDALALI Bungeni?*
Kuna kila sababu ya kuamini kuwa kitendo la Muhongo kuitwa DALALI na maneno haya kuonekana tena na tena kwenye vyombo vya habari vinavyomilikiwa na REGINALG MENGI likiwemo gazeti la NIPASHE toleo la leo *ni kutaka tu kutusahaulisha maelezo ya mh. WAZIRI kuwa REGINALD MENGI ni DALALI katika suala zima uwekezaji.




Mwandishi wa NIPASHE anawataka wanomtetea Waziri Muhongo wajibu kwa nini kipindi chake deni la TANESCO limefikia bil.456. Lakini mwandishi amesahau kujiuliza kabla ya hapo deni la TANESCO lilikuwa dogo kwa sababu gani na sasa ni kubwa kwa sababu gani?
Niainishe machache ambayo yanaweza kuwa sababu za deni kuongezeka lakini kwa manufaa ya wananchi
1. Ni kipindi cha Muhongo, gharama za kuwaunganishia wateja umeme zimepungua, lakini kupungua kwa gaharama kuwaunganishia wateja umeme hakupunguzi gharama za kuendeha shirika la TANESCO, ni wazi gharama zilizokuwa zikibebwa na wananchi sasa zinabebwa na shirika.
2.Waziri wakati akijibu hoja za ripoti ya PAC kuhusu pesa za ESCROW alisema kuna mwanasheria alikuwa amelipwa shilingi bil.62 katika kesi yaTANESCO na IPTL.kabla hajaamua shirika lisitishe mkataba na mwanasheria huyo ambaye alikuwa analigharimu shirika pesa nyingi, si ajabu hizi pesa bil.62 ni sababu ya deni la TANESCO kupaa.
3. Ni kipindi cha Waziri Muhongo Umeme umesambazwa katika vijiji vingi nchini(siyo rahisi vijiji vyote tanzania kufikiwa na umeme kwa wakati mmoja) na kama tunavyofahamu mara zote bajeti ya Serikali imekuwa haitoshelezi siyo kwa Wizara ya Nishati na Madini pekee bali Wizara zote.
Jamani eti hata suala la *Umeme kukatika nalo linakuwa sababu ya kumuondoa Muhongo kwenye uwaziri, kweli? Mbona mwandishi hatuambii umeme hautabiriki ukilinganisha na kipindi cha Waziri gani?. Tukumbuke huko nyuma siyo kwamba umeme ulikuwa unakatika tu, la hasha.Kulikuwa na *mgawo wa umeme. REGINALD MENGI anasahau kuwa kipindi cha nyuma(kabla ya MUHONGO), kuna wakati ITV walikuwa wanasitisha kurusha matangazo kutokana na mgawo wa umeme na kupelekea kushindwa kumudu gharama za mafuta ya genereta. Lakini pia tukumbuke kwamba sasa hivi TANESCO wanabadilisha mifumo yao ya mitambo kutoka ya zamani kwenda ya kisasa, hivyo inawezekana kabisa matatizo ya kukatika kwa umeme kunatokana na matengeenezo na siyo kutokuwepo kwa umeme.




Eti wananchi wanena! Akina nani hao? DEVID SILINDE? mwandishi alitaka awe kinyume na bosi wake ambaye anayetumiwa na MENGI ili awatumie vijana wake kama SILINDE kumchafua Mujongo? Hakipendi kibarua chake au *hapendi kionekana ili naye awe kama akina Mnyika, LISSU na wengine ndani ya chama?
Katika hotuba yake wakati wa kuchangia ripoti ya PAC , mbunge wa Muleba , Charles Mwijage ni miongoni mwa Wabunge waliomtetea sana Muhongo hasa akirejea kazi kubwa aliyoifanya ya kupeleka Umeme vijijini, leo tunapoambiwa kuwa amemponda Waziri Muhongo, napata mashaka kama hii habari iliyoandikwa na gazeti hili ni ya kweli au basi tu ni VITA YA *MANENO ambayo MENGI ameamua kuifanya kupitia vyombo vyake.
EZEKIEL MAIGE , aliyekuwa Waziri wa Maliasili na Utalii ni mmoja wa Wahanga wa siasa nchini na asipokuwa na moyo wa uvumilivu wa majeraha aliyoyapata angefurahi kuona wenzake nao wanajeruhiwa ili ule msemo wa waswahili wa KIFO CHA WENGI NI HARUSI uweze kutimia.*
Vivyo hivyo kwa Prof. KITILA MKUMBO, mpaka sasa kilichoko mbele yake kisiasa ni giza nene. Zile ndoto za ZITTO KABWE kuwa nao kule ACT- TANZANIA ndiyo hivyo zinafifia. ZTTO ametumia vizuri turufu ya TEGETA ESCROW na pasi na shaka msaliti huyo atarejea kwa wahafidhina. HIVYO MKUMBO ni lazima sasa awe na maneno malaini ili naye arushe karata yake kama ZITTO KABWE.




Nimalizie tu kusema SOSEPETER MUHONGO NI DALALI KWA SABABU ALIMWAMBIA REGINALD MENGI NI DALALI NA SIYO VINGINEVYO

[idoyo]

Muhongo angekuwa mchaga ITV AU GAZETI LA NIPASHE Lisingetangaza yote hayo.
Angalieni kashfa za wachaga kama huwa zinatangazwa au kuandikwa na vyombo vya IPPMEDIA.

Anyway kuhusu kuongezeka deni la Tanesco muhongo anahusikaje? TANESCO ni taasisi inayojitegemea yenye maamuzi yake na yenye mipango yake ya maendeleo.Ni shirika lenye bodi yake yenye uwezo wa kuingia mikataba ikiwemo ya kukopa au kuingia ubia na IPTL na kufungua Akaunti za ESCROW na kadhalika.

Hivi Muhongo ni mfanyakazi wa TANESCO mpaka eti bunge maruhuni lipendekeze ajiuzulu? Hayo sijui mamikataba ya IPTL na TANESCO yalisainiwa na MUHONGO au aliyakuta yapo tayari?

hahaha!! kuhusu REA kusambaza umeme vijijini moungo anahusikaje? maana mnamtia sifa, "oh, kasambaza umeme vijijini". mnajua hela ye REA inatoka wapi? mie nimeihudumia account ya REA kwenye benki fulani hapa nchini, mngejua tu pesa zinazoingia kule zitokapo na kuiwezesha kusambaza umeme vijijini msingeropoka jina la muongo. kwenye REA musiingize siasa. btw, a leader is responsible kwa yote yatakayotokea kwenye ofisi yake, hakuna kusema sikiwepo! ile ni ofisi, siyo 'wewe'.

 

[mjepo]

team Muhongo mnatumia nguvu badala ya akili kujibu hoja.
jibu maswali haraka.

Unataka maswali mengine zaidi ya hayo uliyopewa.

 

[MAHORO]

... Wanaomtetea Huyu JAMBAZI Wanalao Jambo

 

[Camp 05]

Muhongo anadharau sana,anawadharau watanzania,mwsho wa dharau umefika

 

[Kichwa Ndio Mtu]

Mengi ni mnafiki sana,sitegemei kama rais kikwete atafanyia kazi chuku binafsi za watu dhidi ya Muhongo kwa kumuondoa wizarani,bora amuondoe kwa mambo mengine ila sio hili la escrow maana ni chuki binafsi za wabaya wa muhongo akiwemo mengi na mkono.

Iwapo rais ataamua kumtimua kazi waziri basi ntaamini kweli nchi hii inaongozwa kwa rimoti na mengi

 

[Jambohili]

Televisheni ya mengi iliwahi kushindwa kufanya kazi kwa kukosa mafuta ya generator eti leo umeme upo kila siku wanaanza chuki na muhongo kisa tu mzee wao mengi ameahindwa kupewa kitaru cha gesi kwa upendeleo kama alivyotaka yeye,

kiukweli muhongo anachukiwa kwa kubana mafisadi pale tanesco akiwepo mengi na mkono,komaa nao prof tupo pamoja nawe.

Acha ulimbukini wewe, mtu mzuri anaweza kubadikika na kuwa mbaya sawa shetani kama huyu mhuhingo Wako, we kumbe upo tayari kumtetea mwizi kisa yupo ccm kwenda zako mafisadi wenzako na mlaaniwe laana kuu.

 

[storage]

Hivi Mengi alishapewaga kitalu cha gesi akawa Dalali kama Muhongo?

 

[Daudi Mchambuzi]

Unataka maswali mengine zaidi ya hayo uliyopewa.

team muhongo ni vilaza kama muhongo that why hamna hoja za kumtetea.

 

[manking]

Vibaraka siwataki aje fisadi mengi mwenyewe nipe vyake hapa nyie wajinga wakupewa elfu kumi tu mnakuja kubadika migazeti ya mengi sinashida na nyie nataka fisadi mwenyewe aje.

Kwani ukijibu hoja kwa hoja kuna ubaya gani hadi utokwe povu kiasi hicho unalipwa sh ngapi na Muhongo? Mimi ni mtu wa simiyu hatumtaki kenge wala mamba hapa wewe unajiita simiyu yetu ipi, unawatetea mafisadi?

 

[Bigirita]

Kuongeza kwa deni ni pamoja na kwenye uwekeza muhongo katumia pesa nyingi sana kuwekeza na kusambaza umeme vijijini,uwekezaji pia unalenga kuifanya tanesco initegemee kitu amabacho mafisadi hawataki badala yake wanataka iendelee kuwa hoi ili waendelee kununua umeme wa dharula.

REA na TANESCO tofauti.
Acha ufala wewe!
