IN implementing its ambitious massive investment development plan, the Tanzania Port Authority (TPA) through its Tanga office has officially started renovating and upgrading Tanga Port by dredging the entrance channel and the berth. The improvement at Tanga Port aims at turning the gateway into the highly competitive terminal, serving customers in the country, East African region and Great Lakes region as the plan now is to have a 12-metre depth berth from the current five metres. Future plans will also involve the construction of a passenger terminal and a modern Single Mooring Point (SPM) for oil cargo. Speaking to reporters in Tanga on Sunday after a board meeting, TPA Board Chairperson, Prof Ignas Rubaratuka and TPA Director General Deusdedit Kakoko said Tanga Port is a strategic terminal for the country's economy. China Harbour Engineering Company (CHEC) is implementing the project whose first phase that costs 170bn/- is expected to last for 12 months. Project implementation kicked off on October 04, 2019. Tanga port, which is the oldest serving terminal in East African region had its first berth built-in 188 8 during Germany colonial rule while the second one was built in 1954. Despite being the second largest port in the country no major infrastructure improvements have ever been done since then.

DDC Mlimani Park- Ndoa ya Lazima 1980

I am not entirely sure if it is the band DDC Mlimani Park who made this song but based on the sound and vocals, I think this band made this classic East African song. It sounds great to me. It is a sign of a genius in those singers and guitarists.

If I am wrong, let me know. Enjoy this song.

WATU ELIFU MBILI WAOKOLEWA KWENYE MAFURIKO MAREKANI JIMBO LA TEXAS NA HOUSTON.

Waokoaji nchini Marekani wakiwa kwenye boti, malori na helicopter wameendelea kukabiliana na athari za kimbunga Harvey kilichoikumba pwani ya jimbo la Texas na Houston, wakati huu wataalamu wakionya kuhusu uwezekano wa kurejea kwa kimbunga hicho kwa mara ya pili.

Rais wa nchi hiyo Donald Trump ameahidi serikali kuwasaidia wananchi wa maeneo yaliyoathirika na mafuriko na kukiri kuwa hali ni mbaya zaidi kwenye baadhi ya maeneo.

Maofisa wa serikali wamesema licha ya juhudi kubwa zilizofanyika, bado kuna maelfu ya raia wamenaswa kwenye nyumba zao na baadhi ya maeneo yamefurika mamia ya watu wanaohitaji msaada.

Viwanja viwili vya ndege kwenye mji huo vilifungwa huku hospitali muhimu nazo zikilazimika kuwahamisha wagonjwa, katika mafuriko ambayo mpaka sasa yamesababisha vifo vya watu watatu#tanzania#kenya#Africa#uk
