CHAMA Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) Secretary-General, Dr Bashiru Ally, has exhorted Tanzanians to utilise investment opportunities for increasing production to enable the nation get raw materials needed for industrialisation. While addressing the CCM members in Bukoba Municipal Council, Ally flagged the government’s commitment to rehabilitating and expanding several airports, including Bukoba Airport and building a new ship in Mwanza. This, he said, would attract investment opportunities, including from foreign investors.
Flagging the various steps being undertaken by President Magufuli’s administration to boost industrialization in the country, Dr Ally said that industries that produce goods for mass consumption, such as clothes, textiles, and edibles are highly encouraged since they have the potential to create additional jobs and more investment from both within and outside the country. Referring to the need for boosting agricultural production in the country, Dr Ally underscored the need for massive private sector involvement. He assured that Tanzania would become a middle-income economy by 2025. The electricity generation in the country would be hiked to meet the pending demand and to pave the way for faster industrial development.
