“Without concrete and sustained peace and stability, Africa’s economic growth and poverty eradication will remain unfulfilled dreams.
— Sam Nujoma, 1st President of Namibia, Sept, 2004, during the 59th session of the UNGA . May his soul rest in peace. (12 May 1929 – 8Feb. 2025)

Today, Feb 8, 2025, Tanzania hosts the EAC-SADC summit in Dar es Salaam to address the DRC crisis. The conflict has devastating impacts on vulnerable groups—especially women, children, and the elderly. Peace is crucial for regional trade integration and achieving AfCFTA goals.

Pleased to see Tanzania & the EU partner on a €15M project to modernize the Dar es Salaam Port! 🚢 This initiative will boost trade efficiency, lower costs & support sustainability—key for Tanzania & our neighbors like Zambia, Rwanda & the DRC.

Tanzania plans to launch a universal identity number by 2025, as reaffirmed by PS Mohammed Khamis Abdulla. This system will simplify IDs into a single Jamii Namba, enhancing security, service delivery, and business processes.
A key boost for investors and digital trade! #TADITA

Where racism exists, and meets no obstacle to its progress, it will continue to flourish.

We must therefore not just condemn racism, we must also be deliberate in opposing this scourge of humanity. Be Anti-Racist!

Tanzania's late President John Magufuli helped Tanzania save $430 million in 5 years (2015-2020) by restricting extravagant foreign trips for public servants.

[Africa Facts Zone @AfricaFactsZone]

In 2016, President Magufuli announced that he would reduce the salaries of Senior Public Servants.

They were earning as much $18,000 monthly, while juniors got a mere $130 per month.

He described this as shameful, and said no senior servant would earn more than $7,000 monthly.

2. Globally, women only make 77 cents for every dollar men earn. This is a major cause of lifetime income inequality. At current rates, it will take 70 years to close this gap. If women were earning as much as men in the workplace, the global economy would be enriched by $160tn.
