Serikali imepata kiasi hicho chafedha kupitia Ofisi ya Msajili waHazina, inayosimamia Mashirika,Taasisi za Umma na Kampuni zenyehisa na serikali.

Akizungumza baada ya kupokeahundi hizo, Waziri wa Fedha naMipango, Dk. Philip Mpango,amezishukuru kampuni hizo kwakuiwezesha serikali kupata kiasikikubwa cha Fedha zitakazotumikakuwahudumia wananchi.

Leo ni siku yangu ya furahasana kwa kupata kiasi kikubwa chafedha kiasi hiki ikiwa ni siku mojatu tangu niwasilishe Bajeti Kuu ya

Serikali bungeni hapa Mjini Dodomaaliongeza Dkt. MpangoAidha, Dkt. Mpango alimwagiza

Msajili wa Hazina, LawrenceMafuru, kuhakikisha kuwa kampunizote ambazo serikali ni mbia zianzekulipa gawio kwa Serikali na kuachavisingizio kwa kutangaza kupatahasara kila mwaka wakati hawafungi

biashara zao.Naomba vyombo vinavyohusika

na ukusanyaji wa mapato ya serikalipamoja na Msajili wa Hazinakuzifuatilia na kuzikagua kampuniambazo Serikali ina hisa ili kubainiukweli ni kwanini hazitoi gawiozikisingizia kupata hasara kwenye

biashara wakati hawafungi biasharahizo alisisitiza Dk. Mpango

Dkt. Mpango pia amevitakavyombo vya Dola kufanya uchunguzi,ili kubaini mianya ya upotevu wamafuta bandarini na kuagiza walewote waliohusika na upotevu huowachukuliwe hatua.

Haiwezekani wajanja wachachewanafaidika halafu wananchiwanyonge wanalala chini hospitalini.Nilisema jana na leo narudia, yeyote

anayetukwamisha kwenye maendeleoni msaliti lazima washughulikiwekwa mujibu wa sheria bila huruma,alisema.

Kauli hiyo ilitolewa na Meneja waShirika la Umeme nchini (TANESCO),Mkoa wa Arusha, Mhandisi Gaspa Msigwa,

kwenye ziara ya waandishi wa habari kutokavyombo mbalimbali vya habari nchini katikamiradi ya TEDAP na mradi wa usafirishajiumeme kutoka Iringa hadi Shinyangakatika msongo wa kilovolti 400 (BITP)inayofadhiliwa na Benki ya Dunia (WB).

Lengo la ziara hiyo lilikuwa ni kuonahatua za utekelezaji, mafanikio nachangamoto za miradi hiyo pamoja nakupata maoni ya wanufaika wa miradi hiyo.

Akielezea mradi huo Mhandisi Msigwa

alisema kuwa ujenzi wa kituo hichouliogharimu Dola za Marekani Milionisaba, ulianza mwaka 2011 na kukamilikamapema Desemba mwaka 2013.

Alisema kabla ya ujenzi wa kituohicho, umeme ulikuwa unasafirishwakutoka katika kituo cha Kiyungi kilichopomkoani Kilimanjaro hadi jijini Arushaumeme ambao ulikuwa hautoshelezi katikamatumizi ya majumbani na katika viwandavidogo.

Aliongeza kuwa pia kulikuwepo natatizo la kupotea kwa umeme mwingikutokana na kusafirishwa katika umbali

mrefu.Alisema kuwa tangu kukamilikakwa kituo hicho wateja zaidi ya 89,000waliunganishiwa umeme ambapo mpakasasa wanapata umeme ambao ni wauhakika.

Imeelezwa kuwamradi wa usafirishajiumeme kutoka Iringahadi Shinyanga katikamsongo wa kilovolti

400 unaofadhiliwa nawashirika mbalimbali wamaendeleo unatarajiwakukamilika ifikapo Septembamwaka huu.

Hayo yalielezwa

na Meneja Mradianayesimamia ujenzi wavituo vya kupoza umemewa mradi huo, MhandisiJames Mtei katika ziara yawaandishi wa habari kutokavyombo mbalimbali vyahabari nchini inayoendeleamkoani Dodoma lengolikiwa ni kujionea utekelezajiwa miradi ya umemeinayofadhiliwa na Benki yaDunia (WB).

Mhandisi Mtei alisemakuwa mradi huo uliogharimuzaidi ya Dola za Marekanimilioni 224 sawa na takribanShilingi bilioni 387.5

umejumuisha ujenzi wa njiaya kusafirisha umeme umbaliwa kilomita 670 na vituo vyakupoza umeme katika mikoaya Iringa, Dodoma, Singidana Shinyanga.

Alisema kwa upande

wa sehemu ya kutoka Iringahadi Dodoma kilomita 225imeshakamilika kwa asilimia99 na kinachosubiriwakwa sasa ni mkandarasi

kulifahamisha rasmi Shirikala Umeme Tanzania(TANESCO) kuwa kaziimemalizika ili kituo kianzekufanyiwa majaribio nakukabidhiwa kwa serikalimwishoni mwa mwezi Juni

mwaka huu.Alifafanua kuwa sehemu

nyingine za kutoka Dodomahadi Singida na Singida hadiShinyanga utekelezaji wakeumefikia asilimia 89 ambapomradi wote kwa ujumlaunatarajiwa kukabidhiwakwa serikali mapemaSeptemba mwaka huu.

Alisisitiza kuwamara baada ya mradiwote kukamilika kamailivyopangwa hali yaumeme katika mikoa yaIringa, Dodoma, Singida,Shinyanga na Kanda yaZiwa kwa ujumla itaimarikasana.

Wakati huo huoMhandisi Nishati Mkuukutoka Wizara ya Nishatina Madini, Mhandisi

Salum Inegeja aliongezakuwa mradi huu ni sehemuya mradi mkubwa wakuunganisha gridi zaZambia, Tanzania na Kenya(ZTK).

Alisema kuwa katikamradi huo wa kikanda,Tanzania imeshatekelezasehemu kubwa ya mradi huokutoka Iringa hadi Singida nasehemu iliyobaki ya kutokaSingida hadi Namangakupitia Arusha fedha zakekutoka Benki ya Maendeleoya Afrika (AfDB) na Shirikala Maendeleo la Kimataifa laJapan (JICA) zilishapatikana

ambapo kwa sasa taratibu zatathmini ya fidia kwa watu

watakaopisha mradi huozinaendelea.

Aliendelea kusema katikasehemu ya kutoka Mbeyahadi Tunduma upembuziyakinifu unaendelea ambapounatarajiwa kukamilikaifikapo mwezi Novembamwaka huu.

Mhandisi Inegeja alisemakukamilika kwa mradi mbalina kuimarisha upatikanajiwa umeme nchini,kutaiwezesha Tanzania

kushiriki kikamilifu katikabiashara ya umeme kupitia

mifumo ya gridi za nchi jiranikatika ukanda wa mashariki(Eastern African Power Pool-EAPP) na zilizopo katikaukanda wa kusini (SouthernAfrican Power Pool -SAPP).

Alitaja nchi zilizopokatika ukanda wa masharikini pamoja na Kenya,Uganda, Sudan, Ethiopia,Libya, Misri na Djibouti nazilizopo katika ukanda wakusini ni pamoja na Afrika yaKusini, Namibia, Botswana,

Zimbabwe, Zambia, Angolana Swaziland.

Mradi mkubwa wa umeme, Iringa

STAMIGOLD YAWEZESHA VIKUNDI VYAWAJASIRIAMALI KUJIKWAMUA KIUCHUMI

Jacqueline Mattowo& Godfrey Francis-STAMIGOLD

Mgodi waSTAMIGOLDBiharamulo kupitiaKitengo chake chaMahusiano ya jamii

mwaka 2014 uliwezesha kuanzishwakwa vikundi vya ujasirimali kwawakazi wa vijiji vilivyo jirani na mgodiMavota na Mkunkwa lengo likiwakusaidia jamii hizo kujikwamuakiuchumi na kuondokana na dhanaya kuishi kwa kutegemea kusaidiwa

na mgodi.Vikundi hivi ni pamoja na kikundi

cha Kina Mama Maendeleo Mavotana kikundi cha Jitihada vyote kutokakijiji cha Mavota , pia kikundi chaMuamko kutoka kijiji cha Mkunkwaambapo vikundi vyote vilipatiwamafunzo ya ujasiriamali, elimu ya

biashara na namna ya kuendeshakikundi pamoja na kusaidiwakufanikisha usajili hivyo kutambulikakisheria mpaka ngazi ya wilaya.

Hivi karibuni Kitengo chaMawasiliano cha STAMIGOLDkilifanya mahojiano na viongozi wakikundi cha Kina Mama MaendeleoMavota ili kufahamu maendeleo ya

kikundi hicho tangu kuanzishwakwake ikiwemo changamotozinazowakabili katika kufikiamalengo waliyojiwekea.

Mwenyekiti wa Kikundi hicho,Genoviva Lucas alibainisha kuwa,kikundi kilianzishwa mwezi Julaimwaka 2014 na kina jumla yawanachama 54 ambapo mpaka sasawanachama hai wanaoendelea nakikundi ni 38 na wote ni wanawake.

Wazo la kuanzisha kikundililitokana na mkutano uliofanywa naMwenyekiti wa Kijiji cha Mavota,Nicas Chakupewa ikiwa ni mwitikiowa wito uliotolewa na Kitengocha Mahusiano ya jamii katikamgodi wa Biharamulo ukihimiza

wanakijiji kubuni njia mbalimbaliza kujikwamua kiuchumi ikiwemokuanzisha vikundi vya ujasiriamali, alieleza Genoviva.

Kikundi cha Mama MaendeleoMavota, huuza mgodini bidhaambalimbali kama mbogamboga,matunda, na vyakula vya asilikama mihogo, maboga, viazivitamu na magimbi ambapo

baadhi ya mazao yanalimwa nawanakikundi na mengine kikundihununua kwa wanakijiji . Mgodi waBiharamulo ndio soko kuu la bidhaazinazozalishwa tangu kuanza kwakikundi.

Kwa upande wake Mhasibu waKikundi, Justina Husein alielezea

kuwa Kikundi hicho kimewaleteamanufaa mbalimbali tangukuanzishwa kwake kwani sasawana kikundi wana njia ya uhakikaya kujiingizia kipato ili kujikimukimaisha na kupata soko la uhakika.

Wengi wetu hatukuwa na mtajiwa kutuwezesha kulima mazao mbalimbali au kununua bidhaa nyingikwa wakati mmoja lakini kupitiakikundi imekuwa ni rahisi kukusanyanguvu kwa pamoja. Vilevile faidanyingine ya kuwa na kikundi niuwezo wa kukopesheka katikataasisi za fedha kwani kikundi chetukimesajiliwa kisheria na pia mtajiwetu umekua kutokana na soko lauhakika la bidhaa zetu katika mgodiwa Stamigold ambapo tangu tuanzempaka sasa kikundi kimejipatiashilingi za kitanzania milioni 130kutokana na mauzo yaliyofanyikakatika vipindi tofauti, alisemaJustina.

Mbali na mafanikio ya ujumla,wanachama wa kikundi chaKina Mama Maendeleo Mavotawameweza kupata manufaa binafsiikiwemo kuhudumia familia zao kwakuwatimizia mahitaji yote muhimukama chakula, malazi, matibabuna elimu bila kukwama tofauti nawalipokuwa hawajajiunga na kikundi.Vile vile wengi wa wanachamawameweza kukuza mitaji ya biasharazao binafsi hivyo kuboresha hali yaoya maisha.

Mgodi wa Stamigold Biharamulo,umedhamiria kuhakikishaunazijengea jamii zilizo jirani namgodi uwezo wa kujikwamua

kiuchumi ili hata pale inapotokeamgodi umemaliza shughuli zake zauchimbaji wanajamii wawe tayariwameondokana na ile dhana yakuishi kwa kusubiri kusaidiwa namgodi.

Mhasibu wa kikundi cha kina Mama Maendeleo Mavota,Justina Husein akipima uzito wa gunia lenye nyanya chunguwakati walipokisha oda zao katika mgodi wa STAMIGOLD.Anayeshuhudia ni Hezron Andrea kutoka kitengo cha Boharimgodini hapo.

Wataalam STAMIGOLD wajenga Bwawala kipekee la kuhifadhi Mabaki ya DhahabuNa Jacqueline Mattowo-STAMIGOLD

Mwaka 2015 Idaraya Uchenjuajikatika mgodi waSTAMIGOLDBiharamulo kwa

kushirikiana na Idara ya Uchimbaji naKitengo cha Mazingira ilianza ujenziwa bwawa la kipekee la kuhifadhimabaki ya dhahabu au kwa lugha yakitaalamu Tailings Storage Facility(TSF) kwa kutumia moja ya mashimoyaliyoachwa (old pit) na kampuni yaAfrican Barrick Gold sasa ACACIA

ikiwa ni baada ya bwawa la zamanikujaa .Meneja wa Idara ya Uchenjuaji

katika mgodi wa Biharamulo,Christopher Mwinuka alieleza kuwamara baada ya Bwawa la zamanilililokuwa na uwezo wa kupokeamabaki ya dhahabu kwa mudawa mwaka mmoja kujaa ilitakiwakujengwa bwawa jipya.

Hivyo kwa kutumia wataalamwa ndani ya mgodi waliweza kubuninjia nyingine mbadala baada ya kuonauwezekano wa kutumia moja yamashimo yaliyokuwa yakichimbwadhahabu na kampuni iliyopitaambapo shimo linaweza kugeuzwa

bwawa na kupokea mabaki ndani yamiaka miwili, alisema Mwinuka.

Bwawa jipya lililojengwa kwa

kutumia mashimo ya zamanilimejengwa kitaalam na kwakuzingatia uhifadhi wa mazingira

hivyo kutumia mali ghafi ambazohaziruhusu kwa namna yeyote ile majiau mabaki yanayohifadhiwa kupenyaardhini na kuharibu mazingira.alisema Mwinuka.

Aidha alizitaja faida za ujenzi huokuwa ni wa gharama nafuu ambapo

bwawa lililojengwa kwa kutumiamashimo ya zamani gharama zakeni Dola za kimarekani milioni 1tofauti na Dola milioni 4.5 ambazozingetumika kujenga bwawa jipyaambalo halitokani na mashimo yazamani .

Pia ujenzi huo ni rafiki wamazingira ukilinganisha na ujenzimwingine kwani ufukiaji wa mashimo

(backfilling) utakuwa rahisi hukobaadae (rehabilitation) na vilevileujenzi huo hautaweza kuharibu maji

yaliyopo ardhini (ground water)kutokana na mali ghafi zilizotumikakatika ujenzi huo.

Mwinuka aliishukuru Serikalikwa kuwaamini Wataalam wandani ambao wanafanya kazi kwamafanikio makubwa bila kutegemeawataalam wa kigeni.

Ningependa kuwapongezawafanyakazi wenzangu wa Idara yaUchenjuaji, Idara ya Uchimbaji naKitengo cha Mazingira ambao kwapamoja tulishiriki katika kubuni ujenziwa bwawa hili la kipekee, alielezaMwinuka

Mgodi wa Stamigold Biharamuloni mgodi pekee wa dhahabu hapa

nchini unaomilikiwa na Serikali nakuzalisha dhahabu chini ya WataalamWazawa pekee.

Strength of Tanzaniain linking FiveFoundation Blocks of

Extractive IndustryE

xtractive Industry broadlymeans mining andhydrocarbon industries. It isone of the most complicatedindustries, comprising of

all three fundamental facets of naturalresources which are mineral, oil and gas.Of all complicities, extractive industryprovides employments to all careers andact as an engine to boost other traditionaleconomic sectors regardless of its resourcecurse and Dutch disease scenarios.

Re-investing revenues from extractiveindustry into other economic sectors to

make them robust is the best practice ever.This is because, the extractive industry lastfor a solid years only and is over. Thoughthe industry generates colossal of revenuesto the country if managed responsibly,its life period has to be transferred intoimmortal sectors by re-investing thoserevenues. Prof.Muhongo has been alwaysinsisting this by saying extractive industryis an engine of other sectors and countryseconomy. The quotes from Eng.GilayShamika articles signify this practice:

Extractive Industry is notsustainable by itself, therefore cannot bringsustainable development by itself as well,and unless the revenues derived fromit are re-invested (integrated) into othertraditional economic sector to make themrobust. Thats the optimal contribution theextractive industries can do; and

Extractive Industry is a temporaryassembly where all careers conveneto work together to produce single lineproduct at a specific solid years. Thistemporary assembly needs to be properlyorganised so that everybody becomes

beneficiary before the assembly disperses.The sensitivity, vulnerability and

massive risks to the country and investorsfrom the extractive industry, causehesitations for the countries to makedecision of investments.

On the other hand, the citizens becomealarmed with higher expectations forthe industry and keep questioning the

authorities on prosperities of the industry.Pertinent issues associated with extractiveindustry, have been researched and lectured

in a bid of getting the proper modality ofwin-win situation between the country andinvestors.

Though the MDAs for MiningIndustry and PSAs for Hydrocarbonsseem to be proper mechanisms for mutual

benefit between governments and investors,predicaments and dissatisfactions are stillviral from extractive industry worldwide.

Thanks to our Minister for Energy andMinerals with other higher profile officialsin the ministry for managing extractiveindustry responsibly to the extent of closinga deal of oil pipe from Uganda to Tanga.

The deal has raised a buzz worldwideand most people assimilate the strength ofTanzania in East African Community to

be like that of Russia in European Union.Russia is the main supplier of gases in

the European Union member states. Thestrength of economic diplomacy betweenRussia and other European countries isa central topic whenever the Europeancountries convene for union proceedings.

Tanzania has to use its boom of theextractive industry as a bargaining chipto create economic diplomacy with othercountries and stride from poor country tothe developed country.

Through my experience, extractiveindustry is governed by what I callPRIMA, which is the abbreviation ofPolicy, Regulation, Investment, MDAs/PSAs and Act. Nothing is associatedwith extractive industry which is outof PRIMA. To this effect, these are thefoundation blocks of extractive industryaccording to my experience in the industry.The concept of PRIMA came into beingafter trying to see what else is associatedin the industry, wherever you search studycases and literature reviews, the totality ofall fall into PRIMA - Policy, Regulation,Investment, MDAs/PSAs and Act.

It is envisaged that proper linkage ofPRIMA will facilitate maximization of theGovernment revenues derived from theextractive industry and also help adherenceof international treaties related to extractive

industry like EITI.This is what the Government throughMinistry of Energy and Minerals has

been doing to streamline PRIMA in away to manage the industry responsibly.The enactment of Mining Act 2010 witha lot of amendments is one among theefforts done by the Ministry. The currentestablishment of PURA is similarlythe alignment of foundation blocks ofextractive industry.

In essence what are real meanings ofPolicy, Regulation, Investment, MDAs/PSAs and Act when articulated inExtractive industry?

Policy ConceptPolicy is like architectural drawing

showing the whole structure of the houseneeded either by owner or tenant. If is forowners residence, the drawing will baseon the wants and needs of the owner at apace but for renting, the drawing may needsome time to be adjusted to allure and

encompass the renters needs and wants,which were not specifically according tothe owner pre-requisites. The owner iscompelled to change the drawing to satisfythe tenants otherwise the tenants will turndown the deal.

Like architectural drawing, Mineralpolicy is the guidance showing theroadmap of the specific country towardsthe demand, supply and allocation of bothminerals and the revenues collected fromextractive industry. The extractive industrypolicies evolve in response to geologicalresources, politics circles, economics eventsand advancements in technology. All thesein totality are dictated by the wants andneeds of the investors.

Like tenants, the investors wants and

needs may compel the country to adjustthe policy as a threshold action for theinflux of investors in the country.

Even if the country is endowed withabundant minerals, if is not internallyindustrial-consumer of its naturalresources, it will be swayed by investorsand therefore it will not withstand itsresources expectations and intent, to theextent that, a stand-alone mineral policewill not be possible rather it will confer itsminerals policy based on FDI, investors-oriented documented policy.

The solution to this is to be focused inchanging our economy into industrializedeconomy; increase industries internallyto use the available minerals. The UnitedStates, Canada and Australia are all majormineral-producing countries with goodto excellent geological prospective. Their

dream is to turn into net consumer andimporter of minerals for their industriesinstead of exporters.

China has already managed this,Brazil is on the track. The minister andpresident persuade Tanzanians to investinto industries for value addition and valuefor money. If we utilize what we extract, ispossible to deal with the market price andregulate market forces.

Investment ConceptThe investment issue has become a

global central point of all mineral policiesregardless of the level of the economy ofthe country developed, developing andtransition economies. Investment andgovernment extractive industry policyare closely linked. Even the most highlygeologically prospective nations will havedifficulty in attracting foreign investment

without adequate national policy,regulatory and fiscal systems.Over the past years in Tanzania,

especially from 1990s the level of mineralsector investment has increased in realterms, and those nations that have put intoplace regulatory systems which reduce orallow a company to manage risks at anacceptable level have, for the most part,enjoyed increased levels of investor interest.

The most difficult thing is to balancethe will of the government vis--vis thecommon wananchi/citizens perceptionson the incentives given to investors.The governments call incentives whilewananchi/citizens call it loopholes and

become vocal and enraged with thoseincentives. To spur investments and at the

same time having policy which pleasingwananchi, needs time as a bargaining tool.For instance Mtwara northern part ofTanzanias saga after educating them thesituation is calm.

Academically, there are two schools ofthought aired internationally. Which oneshould start in country policy: economicdemocracy (China model) or politicaldemocracy (Western model)? And whoshould decide which one to start, thecountry itself or the international arena?The masterminds of these thoughtsamong others from Africa are NgoziOkonjo Iweala and Dambisa Moyo theauthor of DEAD AIDS TO AFRICA,WINNER TAKES ALL and HOWTHE WEST WAS LOST.

Eng.Gilay Shamika is an Engineer and Gemologist from Tanzania Minerals Audit Agency (TMAA). Email: [email protected]: The views and opinions expressed in this article are those of the author and do not reect the position of any institution/Employer.

Strength of Tanzania in linking Five

Foundation Blocks of Extractive Industryelaborate the importance of investmentvis--vis the readiness of wananchiwithin the investment vicinity andcompetitions with other countrieshaving similar resources. The incentivesare inevitable; otherwise the investorsdisperse and find resources into othercountries.

However, what type of incentivesneeds to be granted? This is an openended question for the country todecide and make restructuring ofincentives whenever deemed necessary.Conformity of this is normally based on

signing investment contract with shorttime to effect restructuring frequently as aneed be due to economic dynamics.

Extractive Industry RegulationRegulations are like house

decorations. The decorations are doneto perfect the appearance of the house(Policy/Acts). Some of the decorationsare needed to widen the relaxation ofthe dwellers (like regulators- officialsvested power) and make life worthwhilewithout confronting terms andconditions of the rent fees and alsowith no changes to the erected house(Extractive industry Act so to say).

Decorations like painting can be

done by tenants at any time wheneverthere is a need without prior consentof the owner or with just informing theowner. That means there is flexibility indoing decoration to easy and smoothingthe recurring deeds.

In real sense basing on the aboveassimilation, extractive industry act issupplemented with extractive industryregulations, rules, administrative orders,administrative guidelines and otherregulatory devices. Such regulations,rules and administrative orders normallyderive directly from a power granted inthe extractive industry act to a specificgovernment officer.

Typically, the Minister for Energy

and Minerals and, or Commissionerfor Minerals, is granted the authority toissue such regulations/rules/orders toeasy and smoothing the responsibilitiesneeded with limited time for decisions.To replace or amend an extractiveindustry act is a politicized, complicatedand time- consuming process. Typically,an amendment to an extractive industryact will take long time; more commonlyit will take many years so to say.

Regulations, on the other hand,can often be changed very quicklyand with limited political input. Thatswhy, lawmakers are wise to considerwhich subject matter should be in theextractive industry act and which topics

are better placed in regulations.Many extractive industry acts lay out

only the fundamental framework of themineral-sector regulatory system. Thedetails are provided in the regulations.Now you can see the correlation ofregulations logic with decorations logicabove.

In light of the above, it is mostlyadvised pertinent issues to be stipulatedinto Act in summary and perplexphrases so as to provide a room to bewidely explained into regulations foractions from the authorized officers.

The power vested to the officers in

regulations, help to act in the sense ofurgency whenever the situation is worsefor the benefit of the country. In a broadnote, regulations are hands-on powerwhile Acts are shared power.

Hands-on power in a sense that,the vested officials have a direct powerto decide and implement action usingregulations. But Acts are shared power ina sense that, the officials need judiciarytranslations for action to be justified.

Mining Development Agreement(MDA) and Production SharingAgreement (PSA)

Mining Development Agreement(MDA) is like a single tenants specialagreement with landlord in a housewith other tenants. You might have alarge house with different tenants inthat house. But one tenant has someexceptions with regards to others. May

be, he has rent three rooms and hepromised to pay annually while the resthave single rooms and pay after six orthree months.

The one occupied three rooms, asksto be considered by landlord not to dogeneral hygiene of the surroundings

because of the aforementioned reasons(occupied 3 rooms and pay annually),the agreement is reached with landlordand communicated to other tenants.! The agreement or favoritism so to sayis based on the financial capability of

the tenant and the beneficiation of thelandlord its two ways traffic.

MDAs are of no exceptionalcompared to the above digestion; MDAsare part of extractive industry regulationsof its own kind. MDAs are agreementsreached between large projects investorsand the government on specific areasparticularly fiscal terms.

The administrative officers grantedpower, discretionary upon theirsatisfaction, reach that agreementcoupled with vast privileges to investorand the country.

However, governments use MDAsto help regulate large mines but handlesmaller operations under specific

provisions in the general extractiveindustry Act. In many instances, evenwhen an agreement is in place, some orall of the extractive industry provisionsmay still apply to the operation.

In most cases what agreed are on thefiscal regime perspectives (like waive oftaxes and exemptions on imports tariffs)

but other operations still apply to theMining industry Act. Additionally, thereis trend in some jurisdictions for mine, oilor gas project to enter into agreementswith local communities, landowners,land-users or indigenous people by theguidance of the authorities within the

country ( Local Content Policy).The logic behind MDAs as seenabove is to have separate agreement forassurance between the country and largeinvestors. Due to complicities and risksinvolved into mining, the MDAs coverall these factors and ultimately the win-win situation is reached between parties.If you leave the large mining investorsto be governed by only mining Act andregulations, other cross-cut issues will bedifficult to be solved or regulated. Thusall those matters are put into discussionsand roadmap (MDA) designed and putinto action while the rest fall into MiningAct and regulations.

For hydrocarbons Industry (Oil& Gas), there is Production SharingAgreement (PSA) while in Mining thereis MDA. The logic of having PSA in oiland gas is the same as that of MDA inmining.

To sum up, though there is anExtractive Industry Acts, but presenceof MDA and PSA are paramount toaccommodate the issues which arenot captured well or given relaxationprivilege in the Act. Is like having thesupreme law of the Land (Constitution)and by-laws to accommodate councils,municipalities, wards and villages day today endeavors.

Extractive Industry ActExtractive industry Act is like a

physical permanent erected house. Thebuilding passes different stages, fromarchitectural and engineering drawing tosetting, building foundation and walls,and ultimately finishing.

Since this operations entails timeand resources consuming, the needsand wants to build the house requirescomprehensive and thoroughlyconsiderations before starting thatexercise.

Similarly, the intention has to be clearif the house is for owners residence orfor renting. If the intention changes onthe course or short time after building,the whole processes are futile and itwill take time and cost to demolish the

permanent structure and seek otherbuilding permit from relevant authoritiesof which the concrete reasons had to bescrutinized.

Extractive industry Act needs timeand resources to be enacted and ispermanent for a solid period of time.Like house, the needs and wants of theAct, have to be lectured, scrutinized,sensitized and ultimately well linkedwith policy and regulations for smoothimplementation. Thus, as a generalobservation, important policy mattersare addressed in the extractive industryAct while administrative details are

embodied in regulations.Since laws are more difficult tochange than are regulations, the subjectmatters addressed in the law are usuallyconsidered as more stable than thosefound in the regulations. There are somemineral sector regulatory topics whereenhanced stability is perceived by mostgovernments as useful. These are placedinto the regulations but accompaniedwith balance and checks stipulated intothe Act.

Act being like our permanent house,needs a strong foundation and welldetailed architectural and engineeringdrawings. This is to say, the policy,regulations, investments, MDAs/PSAs have to be well linked to bridge allloopholes for the extractive industry toyield required revenues to the countryand reach 10% of GDP on 2025.

The experience shows that non-linkage of PRIMA is the source ofresource curse or Dutch disease. Thatmeans the Extractive industry sectorneed comprehensive approach whichlinks all PRIMA and make it likecobweb where any loopholes whetherdeliberately or incidental createdwill be captured PRIMACOBWEB!!

The figurative assimilation ofPRIMA and the processes used to buildthe house fit each other. PRIMA are our

build materials to have strong and state-

of art house (managed responsiblyextractive industry)

The ministerial managementunder Prof.Muhongo and the restare battling around the clock to buildstrong foundation of extractive industry.As we are aware, the energy sectorand mining sector have dramaticallyimproved and strengthened by linkingall five foundation blocks effectively andsufficiently.

Together lets discuss in a good faithand build the foundation by using thosefive blocks - PRIMA. You can prepareand fabricate any block among thosefive and submit to the general public forcontinual construction of the industry.

Na Samwel Mtuwa-GST

Wataalam wa Wakalawa Jiolojia Tanzania(GST) kupitiaMaonesho yaWajasiriamali na

Wamiliki wa Viwanda Vidogo Vidogomkoani Dodoma, wametoa elimukuhusu matumizi sahihi ya madini yachumvi na magadi kwa watanzaniawaliotembelea Banda la Maonesho laGST.

Mratibu wa Ushiriki waMaonesho hayo wa GST, MjiolojiaJonhson Muhozi alisema kuwa GSTimeshiriki katika maonesho hayokwa lengo la kutoa elimu kwa ummakuhusu masuala mbalimbali ikiwemomatumizi sahihi ya madini ya chumvi,kwa kuwashauri wavunaji wa chumviwajenge utamaduni wa kutumiamaabara ya GST kupima chumviwaliyovuna kabla ya kwenda kwamlaji ili waweze kujua aina za madini

yaliyopo katika chumvi pia kuwaelezawatanzania kuwa chumvi bora ni ileiliyopimwa kitalaam na kuondolewamadini yasiyofaa kiafya.

Mfano madini aina ya kaboneti(Carbonate) yanapokuwepo katikachumvi yana tabia ya kuondoavirutubisho vya mwili suala ambalolinaweza kusababisha ugonjwa wakansa (Cancer) kwa binadamu,alisema Muhozi.

Akieleza kuhusu madini yaMagadi, Muhozi alifanunua kuwa,wateja waliotembelea banda hilo

walipewa elimu na kuwashaurikutotumia kwa wingi madini yamagadi kwa sababu madini hayoyana chokaa kwa wingi na tabia yamadini ya chokaa ni kutoyeyukakwa haraka hivyo yanaweza kuletamadhara ya afya kwa binadamu.

Madini ya Magadi yana chokaakwa wingi hivyo yanapotumika kwawingi na binadamu yanakuwa sisalama kwa afya, hii ni kutokana namadini haya kutoyeyuka kwa harakayakishajikusanya. Madini hayoyanaweza kuleta madhara ya kiafayakama magonjwa ya kansa, AlisemaMuhozi

Kwa upande wake Mtalaamwa Mawe ya Nakshi kutoka GST,Sabitina Bakari, alisema kuwakatika Maonesho hayo wamepataWajasiriamali wengi waliotaka kupata

elimu ya mawe ya nakshi (DimensionStone), hivyo kutokana na mahitajihayo wamepanga kutoa elimu kwavitendo juu ya ukataji na ungarishajiwa mawe ya nakshi ili watanzaniawaweze kutumia elimu hiyo katikaujasiriamali .

Tumepata wajasiriamali wengiwanaotaka kupata elimu ya mawe yanakshi hasa katika ukataji pamoja naungarishaji hivyo tumepanga tukitokahapa tutapeleka mrejesho ofisini iliofisi iangalie jinsi ya kutoa elimu yaukataji na ungarishaji kwa maendeleoya watanzania, alisema Sabitina.

Akifunga Maonesho hayoWaziri wa Viwanda na Biashara,Charles Mwijage aliahidi kufunguaKiwanda cha kuzalisha madini yaJasi (Gypsum) kutokana na madinihayo kupatikana kwa wingi mkoani

Veronica Simba naRhoda James

Matumizi ya nishatiya tungamotakahususan mkaa na kuniyameendelea kuwachangamoto kwa

jamii mbalimbali ikiwemo Tanzania.Madhara makubwa yanayotajwakutokana na matumizi ya nishati hiyo

ni uchafuzi na uharibifu wa mazingiraunaosababishwa na ukataji holelawa miti. Aidha, matumizi ya kuni namkaa huzalisha hewa ya ukaa ambayosiyo rafiki kwa afya ya binadamu.

Serikali, kupitia Wizara ya Nishatina Madini inaendeleza mikakatimbalimbali kuhakikisha wananchiwanaachana na matumizi ya kuni namkaa na badala yake watumie nishatinyingine zilizo rafiki kwa mazingirakama vile gesi na umeme.

Baadhi ya mikakati muhimuinayotekelezwa na Wizara ni pamojana kuhakikisha nishati za umeme nagesi zinapatikana kwa wingi nchinikote ikiwemo vijijini. Pia, kuhakikishanishati hizo zinapatikana kwa bei

nafuu ambayo wananchi wengiwataweza kuimudu.Umeme unaendelea kusambazwa

kwa kasi sehemu mbalimbali nchiniyakiwemo maeneo ya vijijini. Aidha,miundombinu kwa ajili ya upatikanajiwa umeme wa uhakika inazidikuboreshwa. Bomba kubwa la gesikutoka Mtwara hadi Dar es Salaamlimekwishakamilika na mikakatiiliyopo ni kuhakikisha pamoja namatumizi mengine, gesi hiyo piainatumika kupikia kwa kusambazamtandao wake sehemu mbalimbalinchini.

Kwa upande mwingine, baadhiya wadau wa sekta ya nishati nchiniwamejipanga kuleta mageuzi katika

sekta ndogo ya mkaa ili kutoka kuwachanzo cha uharibifu wa Misitu,nishati hiyo iwe motisha kwa jamii,

hususan katika usimamizi wa Misituyao kwa njia endelevu.

Shirika la Kuhifadhi Misitu ya AsiliTanzania (TFCG) kwa kushirikianana Mtandao wa Jamii wa Usimamiziwa Misitu Tanzania (MJUMITA)na Shirika la Kuendeleza Nishati yaAsili Tanzania (Tanzania TraditionalEnergy Development Organisation,TaTEDO) wanatekeleza mradi huoujulikanao kwa ufupi kama TTCS kwaufadhili wa Shirika la Maendeleo na

Ushirikiano la Uswisi (Swiss AgencyDevelopment and Cooperation, SDC).

Mradi huo umedhamiriakukabiliana na changamoto yaupotevu mkubwa wa nishati kutokanana aina za teknolojia zinazotumikakutokuwa fanisi.

Akiwasilisha mada kuhusu Mradiwa kuleta mageuzi katika sekta yaMkaa Tanzania, katika Mkutanouliowakutanisha Maafisa Mawasilianokutoka Idara na Taasisi mbalimbaliza Serikali na zisizo za Kiserikali, hivikaribuni jijini Dar es Salaam, Mtaalamkutoka MJUMITA, Elida Fundi,alisema kuwa, nia ya wadau hao kuletamageuzi husika ni kusaidia nia njema

ya Serikali katika suala la uhifadhi wamazingira.Mtaalam huyo anakiri kuwa,

jitihada za Serikali, hususan Wizara yaNishati na Madini kuhakikisha jamiiinaachana na matumizi ya kuni namkaa na kutumia nishati zilizo rafikikwa mazingira kama vile gesi, ni zakupongezwa.

Hata hivyo, anabainisha kuwa,katika kipindi ambacho Serikaliinaendeleza jitihada za jamiikuachana na matumizi ya mkaa nakuni, ni vyema kuwepo na mbinumbadala itakayohamasisha wananchikupunguza ukataji holela wa miti.

Ni kwa sababu hiyo, Mradihuu umelenga kuboresha namna ya

kukabiliana na kuhimili mabadilikoya tabia nchi, kuongeza uendelevuwa mazingira na utawala bora katika

mnyororo wa thamani wa mazao yamisitu ikiwemo mkaa.

Akieleza zaidi kuhusu malengoya kuanzishwa mradi huo, OfisaMawasiliano kutoka TFCG,Bettie Luwuge anasema kuwa, nikuwawezesha wananchi kunufaikamoja kwa moja na usimamiziendelevu wa rasilimali za misitukupitia taasisi zao za kijamiizilizoimarishwa na zenye kuleta faidakutokana na biashara ya mazao yamisitu na kwa kuleta mageuzi yakiutendaji ili kuongeza ushawishi wasera zinazounga mkono matumiziendelevu ya rasilimali za misitu;kuwajengea uwezo watumishi waserikali na wadau wengine wawezekurasimisha na kusimamia sekta yatungamotaka.

Aidha, Luwuge anaeleza kuwa,Mradi umekuwa ukitekelezwa katikaWilaya ya Kilosa katika vijiji 10 tangumwaka 2012 kwa awamu ya kwanza,na sasa umetanua shughuli zake katikaHalmashauri ya wilaya ya Morogorona Mvomero kuanzia Desemba 2015hadi Novemba 2019 katika kipindi chaawamu ya pili.

Kuhusu shughuli mahsusizinazofanyika, Luwuge anaelezakuwa pamoja na mambo mengine,mradi umesaidiana na wananchi naserikali ya wilaya ya Kilosa kuandaana kuanzisha misitu ya hifadhi za vijijiambapo ndiyo panatengwa maeneomaalumu ya uvunaji wa nishati ya

mkaa kwa njia endelevu pamoja nakuanzisha na kutekeleza mfumo wamkaa endelevu.

Imeelezwa kuwa mkaaunaozalishwa kwa njia endelevu

unazalishwa kutoka kwenye misituya hifadhi ya vijiji, ambayo huzingatiakanuni bora za kiikolojia za uvunajiendelevu. Aidha, mkaa huounazalishwa kwa kutumia teknolojiaya tanuri bora zilizoboreshwa kitaalam.Pia, vibali vya uvunaji hutolewa vijijini,ushuru hulipwa vijijini na unafuatataratibu zote za kisheria ikiwa nipamoja na taratibu za usafirishajizinazofuata sheria.

Ni jambo la kutia moyo kwamba,Mradi huo mbali na kuhamasishamatumizi ya njia sahihi za uvunajiwa mkaa ili kutoharibu Misitu kwauvunaji holela wa Miti, pia wananchihusika wananufaika kwa namnambalimbali ikiwemo ajira pamoja navijiji husika kupata mapato kutokanana ushuru.

Aidha, ni jambo la kufurahisha palewadau mbalimbali wanapoibua mbinumbalimbali za kuisadia Serikali katikamasuala mbalimbali yanayolengakuleta maendeleo kwa wananchi naTaifa kwa ujumla.

Bila shaka, Mradi wa kuletamageuzi katika sekta ya mkaaTanzania, ikiwa utatekelezwa ipasavyona kuenezwa sehemu mbalimbali nchinzima, utasaidia kwa kiasi kikubwakupunguza madhara ya uvunaji holelawa kuni na mkaa, katika kipindiambacho Serikali inafanya jitihadakuhakikisha wananchi wanaachana

kabisa na matumizi ya nishati hiyokwa kuwezesha matumizi ya nishatinyingine bora zaidi.

Baadhi ya wanavijiji kutoka vijiji nane Wilayani Kilosa wakijifunza jinsi yakuandaa magogo kwa ajili ya uchomaji wa mkaa endelevu katika Wilayahiyo kwa lengo la kuchoma mkaa lakini pia kutunza mazingira
