FOREWORD

Availability of accurate and adequate data is an essential aspect in the development

planning process. It is unquestionable that development plans that are based on

unreliable and inadequate data, are likely to be poorly implemented and unsustainable.

Therefore, efforts to gather accurate and reliable data is inevitable if development plans

aimed at improving the livelihoods of communities have to be attained. Reliable data is

also important when considering the implementation of the Tanzania’s Development

Vision 2025 with the NSGRPII (MKUKUTA II) and the Millennium Development Goals

(MDGs) as its implementation vehicles.

The increase in population for Dar es Salaam City and in particular Ilala Municipality

has increased pressure on provision of social and economic services to her people.

Social and economic services are still deteriorating and are becoming unsustainable.

Absence of accurate and reliable data has also hampered efforts of Ilala Municipal

Council to provide timely and quality services to all stakeholders.

After realizing the aforesaid problems, Ilala Municipal Council embarked on improving

its Socio-Economic Profile as an attempt to assess the situation and find a solution to

this data and information gap.

This document covers a wide range of data and information on the geography,

population, socio-economic parameters, social services, economic infrastructure and the

productive sectors. It also provides information on the potential investment areas in the

region. Such data and information will enable policy and decision makers to take

informed decisions. Furthermore, the information will be used by planners, researchers,

development partners and functional managers in planning, implementation,

monitoring and evaluation of development activities.

xii

Ilala Municipal Council Socio-Economic Profile contains detailed data and information

on the Municipal Council. It is expected that such data will prove to be valuable and

informative to our clients. However, constructive views and criticisms are still invited

from the readers to enable this profile to become a better tool in the planning and

implementation of development activities in the Municipality.

Lastly but not least, I wish to thank the staff of Ilala Municipal Council and the Institute

of Rural Development Planning Dodoma, for their devotion in ensuring the successful

compilation of this document.

ILALA MUNICIPAL COUNCIL- UNIQUE FEATURES

There are many unique features in Ilala Municipality due to its history, coupled with Dar

es Salaam being the original capital city of the country and Ilala as the major commercial

centre in Tanzania. The Municipality has many features that may be of interest to

historians and tourists together with investors. They range from man-made features like

buildings and other infrastructures, to natural sites some of which have been cited

below;

Dar es Salaam Harbour

Dar es Salaam, exemplifies its Arabic root, meaning “Heaven of Peace”, that was

discovered in 1862 by the Sultan of Oman’s son. Two centuries later, it has made good

use of its location as a natural harbour. It is a competitive port not only boasting of

serving East and Central Africa’s landlocked countries (Malawi, Zambia, Democratic

Republic of Congo, Burundi, Rwanda and Uganda), but also the Middle and Far East,

Europe, Australia and America.

The State House

Is a renovated old German building near the entrance to the largest harbour in the

Country. The building is the office cum residence of the Head of State. This feature

coupled with a Ragas robust sculpture mounted on a granite plinth donated by a

famous German photographer Hans Meyer in 1911 at the main western gate of the

State House form spectacular scenery as you approach the harbour from the Indian

Ilala Municipal Council is one of the first 38 Local Government Authorities, which went

through restructuring process under phase one of the Local Government Reform

Programme (LGRP) for the purpose of meeting qualities required by the Local

Government Act No. 6 of 1999 which aims at devolving political, legal, administrative

and financial powers to local authorities. Ilala Municipal Council came into existence

after a decade of poor performance of the then Dar es Salaam City Council that

prompted the government to form a probe team that produced Mulokozi Report in

1992. In 1993, following this report, the government decided to restructure the local

government system of the City of Dar es salaam. Later in 1996, the government

abolished the City Council and appointed the Dar es Salaam City Commission as an

interim administration with the broad terms of references of the three restructuring

programmes.

One of the programmes was establishment of the three new Municipal Councils namely

Ilala, Temeke and Kinondoni, which aimed at responding to the local demands and

conditions for best delivery of services. Thus, Ilala Municipal Council (together with

citywide Authority and the other two Municipalities) was officially established on 1st

February 2001.

Ilala Municipal Council is administratively divided into three Divisions of Ilala, Ukonga

and Kariakoo. The district’s divisions are divided into wards which in turn are

subdivided into mitaa. The ward consists of a certain number of mitaa. The Municipal

Council is made up of 26 wards and 101 mitaa. Table 2 shows the distribution of wards

and mitaa by division in Ilala Municipality.

in 2012. The Municipality had a total population of 1,220,611 people of which 595,928

were males and 624,683 were females with sex ratio of 95. Ward wise, Vingunguti ward

had the highest population of 106,946 people and Kivukoni ward had the lowest

population of 6,742 people. The population of females relative to males continues to be

higher in almost all wards with exception of few wards like Mchikichini, Kariakoo,

Jangwani, Gerezani, Mchafukoge, Kivukoni and Upanga Magharibi (Table 3). The

number of households was 300,674 and the average household size in the Municipality

1.3 Ethnicity

The main native ethnic groups in Ilala Municipality are the Zaramo and Ndengereko,

However, due to urbanization; many people of different ethnic backgrounds have

immigrated into the Municipality making it heterogonous in terms of tribal

composition. There is no single ethnic group that accounts for more than 25% of the

total population. Ilala is the most affected area in the City due to its strategic location as

the hub for social-economic activities and other interactions. The rapid economic

growth of the Dar es Salaam City also attracts the influx of people from different

corners of the country and outside the country.

1.4 Key Population Characteristics

1.4.1 Introduction

The first countrywide census was carried out in 1948, followed by those of 1957, 1967,

1978, 1988, 2002 and that of 2012. However, for Ilala Municipality the only available

data were for the censuses of 2002 and 2012. These censuses documented the age

groups, occupation, migration, education, water, health, sanitation and electricity. From

the two censuses the following general trends have been deduced. The population of

females continued to be larger than that of males while illiteracy continued to be higher

among females than males. Generally literacy is increasing among both sexes. Shop

salesmen, small-scale traders and Labourers continued to be the dominant economic

activities of the people. Infant mortality rate (IMR), under five mortality rate (U5MR)

and Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) continued to decline.

1.4.2 Population size, growth and density

Ilala Municipal Council population growth rates increased from 4.6% in 2002 to 5.6% in

2012. This could be attributed to improved health services in the Municipality and

standard of living. Migration into the Municipality is an additional factor contributing

to the faster growth rate. Table 4 shows population growth from 2002 to 2012

The population of Ilala Municipality increased from 634,924 to 1,220,611 between 2002

and 2012, which is about 92.2% increase. This increase has effects on provision of social

services to all stakeholders of Ilala Municipality. The increase was much higher in

Ukonga division where there was an increase of 475,778 people between the two inter-

census period as shown in Table 5.

In terms of population density, between 2002 and 2012 the Municipality’s density

increased from an average of 3,022 people per sq.kms to 5,810 people per sq.kms as

shown in Table 6.

Kariakoo 9.6 7,306 9,280 27.0

Total 210.1 3,022 5,810 92.2


1.4.3 Households and households size

According to the 2012 Population and Housing Census, Ilala Municipality had a total of

300,674 households spread into 26 wards with Vingunguti ward recording the highest

number of households (28,994 households). Kivukoni ward had the lowest number of

households (1,343 households) as shown in Table 3. This is partly due to the fact that

most of the buildings in this area are Government Offices with very few buildings for

residential purposes.

Based on the 2012 Population and Housing Census, the sex ratio for Ilala Municipality

was at 95 indicating that there were more females than males in the Municipality.

Kariakoo ward had the highest sex ratio at 113 and Kimanga ward had the lowest sex

ratio of 90 (Table 3).

1.4.4 Migration

It is well known that natural increase in any locality is not the only factor which affects

population size and growth density. Deaths also affect population growth and density

negatively while migration can affect population positively or negatively. Ilala

Municipality is facing a problem of migration whereby the majority of Dar es Salaam

29

citizens spend their day time in Ilala Municipality, but are residents of other

Municipalities. Ilala Municipality seems to have small population compared to other

councils and this is due to the census approach used, which counts people based on

where they spent the night preceding census day. In part, this approach could be

underestimating the actual population of the Municipality.

It is estimated that the Dar es Salaam population is 5 million during the day. As a result,

Ilala always faces problems of inadequacy social services like water, health and

infrastructures. The Municipality also suffers from environmental pollution because the

increase in population is not accompanied by expansion of social services to meet the

increased demand for social services.

1.5 Climate And Soils

The municipality has humid temperatures that vary from 260C in August to 350C in

December and January. The long rains season (March – May) receives an average

monthly rainfall of 150mm – 300mm. The short rains season is between October and

December with monthly average rainfall ranging from 75mm – 100mm. Ilala

Municipality’s altitude that ranges between 0 and 900 meters above sea level influences

the ecological characteristics of the Municipality. Thus, the Municipality consists of a

large lowland area and a small part forming the upland zone. The lowland areas start

where the Municipality borders with the Indian Ocean (Kivukoni ward) and extends to

Segerea, Ukonga and Kitunda wards. Beyond these wards, the small upland areas

emerge as small hills or plateaus of Pugu, Kinyerezi, Chanika and Msongola wards.

Whereas most of the lowland areas constitute the urban part of the Municipality, the

upland areas are predominantly agricultural and peri-urban in character. The soil type

in these areas consists of sand, clay and loam properties.

of the farmers depend on rain fed agriculture and irrigation on small scale. Two small

irrigation schemes have been established at Kidole and Zingiziwa in Msongola and

Chanika wards, respectively. Presently, Ilala Municipal Council is conducting a

feasibility study for two irrigation schemes at Mzinga River and Zogoali valley in

Msongola and Chanika wards aiming to increase production throughout the year.

Generally, land which is suitable for traditional irrigation is found at Ukonga division

only. These areas include Valley of Mzinga, Kizinga rivers, Kitunda, Yangeyange and

Bulampaka valley, Kidole, Mbondole, Zingiziwa and Uwanja wa Nyani hamlets. Ilala

and Kariakoo divisions have no potentials area for irrigation.

The presence of ward Resource Centre at Kinyamwezi has enabled farmers to acquire

integrated farming skills offered by the centre. About 1,000 farmers are trained every

year. The centre also produces various seedlings and sells to farmers at affordable

prices. The potential areas for irrigation in Ilala Municipality are indicated in Table 14.

SECTION III

ECONOMIC INFRASTRUCTURE

3.1 Road Transport

3.1.1 Introduction

Road infrastructure in Ilala Municipality is developed in such a way that economic and

Social service activities are favorably influenced. About 90% of road network in the

Municipality are passable throughout the year. The internal movements of goods and

services are essential for the development of Ilala Municipality. The road has

tremendously stimulated socio–economic opportunities and population influx to seek

opportunities in areas of transport, trade, communication, marketing and construction

industries.

3.1.2 Road length and type

The Municipal’s road network measures 805.656kms. Roads are graded into three

categories namely Urban road, District/Municipal roads and Feeder roads.

District/Municipal roads are important to the district/Municipal development while

feeder roads are roads which feed into the district/Municipal roads as tributaries.

Available data on road network showed the total length for different category are

indicated in Table 42.

According to type of surface the Ilala Municipal’s road network tarmac constitute

9.89%, gravel constitute 9.79% and earth roads has the longest length 647.14 kms

equivalent to 80.32%. Division wise, Ukonga division has the longest road network of

640.252km equivalent to 79.47% of the total road network in the Municipality. About

79.18% of the Municipal tarmac roads are found in Kariakoo division. Table 43 shows

length of road network by type of surface in each division of Municipal Council.

3.1.3 Road density

The concentration of the road network in relation to land area shows the extent the

network covers any one area. The road density is measured in terms of kilometers of

road for every unit of land. The higher the resultant indicator the greater the coverage.

For 2013, Ilala Municipality was covered at an average of 3.83 kms of road per sq. km of

land. Among the division, Kariakoo lead by 9.75 kms/sq.km followed by Ukonga at

3.77 kms/sq.km as shown in Table 44

3.1.4 Public transport in Dar es Salaam

The public transport system mainly consists of buses called ‘daladala’. There are

approximately 7,000 registered and privately owned daladala in services with an

aggregate seating capacity of approximately 25-32 seats. The reliability, comfort and

safety of public transport services in Dar es Salaam are low. Considering the total urban

transport fleet size, the maximum daily passenger capacity is estimated to be 4.6 million

passenger trips per day. This is below the estimated demand of approximately 3.6

million passenger trips per day as it was in 2002.

57

Dar es salaam Railway Station

3.2 Railway Transport

Currently Ilala Municipality has two types of railway transport. The Tanzania Railways

Corporation (TRC) starts at Ilala- Dare s Salaam to Tabora- Kigoma and the other line is

to Tabora - Mwanza. The line was originally established during British colonial rule to

move minerals. It now taken out both mainly for cargo carried as compared to

passengers. The Tanzania Zambia Railways (TAZARA) starts at Ilala Dar es Salaam to

Zambia. Demand for passenger and cargo services using railway transport is high due

to high population and big traffic. Table 45 shows Railway services in Ilala

Municipality.

On this side the Dar es Salaam port which is under Tanzania Port Authority is at Ilala

Municipal Council and hence majority of passenger using ships and speed boats have to

pass through Ilala Municipal Council. The port is the main gate way through to

Zanzibar Islands and serving many of land locked countries such as Uganda, Burundi,

Rwanda and Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

SOCIO SERVICES

4.1 The Health Sector

4.1.1 Introduction

The health status of an individual or community determines the effectiveness of his/her

contribution to economic and social welfare of his/her family, community and the

country at large. Effective participation in agricultural activities and other economic

activities depends on good health. To ensure a healthy population, Tanzania needs

good health services to her people.

Ilala Municipal Council health delivery system follows the national pyramid system.

The Municipal Council has only three levels of healthcare service delivery. Health

centers, dispensaries and affiliated clinics deliver first line promotive, preventive, and

curative health services including Reproductive and Child Health (RCH), outpatient,

66

public/community, environmental, school health and diagnostic services. The

Municipal Hospital (Amana) delivers preventive and curative second line services

including RCH pediatrics and obstetric services. Outpatient, inpatient, investigation

services and health promotion are integrated in a routine activity through outpatient

services.

4.1.6 Child nutrition

78

Nutrition-wise, children are at their most vulnerable stage at age of less than one year.

Malnutrition in young children is recognized as a symptom of imbalanced in children’s

food intake. The measles vaccination is earliest at 9 months. Hence, the weight of a child

at this time is a measure not only of the capacity of the family to feed the child correctly

but also of the effectiveness of the child health education given to mothers regarding

the development of their children. Table 64 shows the distribution of children under

one year who were under-weight at the time of their measles vaccination by division.

No child was found to be moderately underweight and severely underweight.

In rural areas access to western medicine is limited and people tends to use traditional

medicine. Traditional doctors and traditional birth attendants (TBAs) also provide

health care to rural people. Table 67 shows the distribution of complementary rural

healthcare services by division with Ukonga division recording the highest number of

traditional medical practitioners.

4.2 The Education Sector

4.2.1 Introduction

Education is an important tool needed for clear understanding, judgment and decision

making in most issues ranging from economic, political and social. The Municipality

83

has invested in education sector in different levels which are pre-primary, primary,

secondary and vocational training colleges.

For the purpose of promoting education status in the region as a whole, pre-primary

education establishment and development has become not only crucial but also

necessary for the target groups. The Municipality has a total of 137 pre-primary schools

out of which 82 are government owned and 55 schools are private owned. See Table 71.

Ukonga 50 35 85

Kariakoo 7 11 18

Total 82 55 137


Looking at Table 71, the data indicates that there is a good participation of private

sector in pre-primary schools. However, more efforts need to be taken to ensure that the

private sector participates fully in this important area of education for the children

under six years. Table 72 shows the trend in the number of pre-primary schools in Ilala

Municipality for five years whereby the number increased from 114 in 2009 to 137

schools in 2013.

84

A share of private sector in total enrolment was higher compared to that of public at

62.5%. Relating with the number of pre-schools private owned, it indicates that the

schools enrolled above their capacity. A closer look at Table 73 shows that Ukonga

division enrolled 65.4% of the total enrollment in Ilala Municipal Council.

4.2.3 Primary school enrolment

4.2.3.1 Introduction

The right to primary school education belongs to every school child in the country. The

introduction of Primary Education Development Programme (PEDP) in July 2001 aimed

at making primary education available to every Tanzanian child of the school going

age. This enabled children of age group between 7 and above, to be enrolled in standard

one.

4.2.3.2 Primary schools

Primary education is delivered at least in every Mtaa in the Municipality using

Education Policy of 1995. In 2013, the Municipality had 165 primary schools, where 105

schools were government owned and 60 were private owned. Of the 105 public

primary schools in Ilala Municipality, Ilala division had 28.6% while Ukonga had 57.1%

and Kariakoo had 14.3% (see Table 75).

enrollment from 128,084 pupils in 2009 to 139,808 pupils in 2013. With regard to sex, the

number of girls enrolled was higher compared with boys in all five years. This suggests

that there are more girls than boys in the population. See Table 80.

4.2.3.5 Primary school teachers

Teachers are the most important factors in primary education development. Teachers of

good quality and in the number required are needed to man the education system in the

Municipality and Region at large. In 2013, Ilala Municipal Council had 3,478 teachers

94

representing 98.5% of the total requirements. This left a deficit of 1.5% equivalent to 52

4.3 The Water Sector

4.3.1 Introduction

The 2002 water policy requires availability of water at a distance of 400 meters from

homestead. It also insists the restoration of water and reservation of water resources.

The operation management of water schemes is through different water utilities such as

water Authorities of DAWASA & DAWASCO, Water Uses Association (WUA’S). Life

113

without water is impossible. Water needs to be safe to sustain life without causing

problems to human health.

The supply of water supply in Ilala Municipality is does not surface demands of the

custom. Majority of our population depends on deep/Shallow wells for supply of

which about 2,058 litrers per day representing 43 percent of the actual needs i.e 4,770

liters of water supply in the Municipality per day. About population of 190,623 depends

on tape water from Lower and Upper Ruvu River. Table 121 shows sources of water

supply in Ilala Municipality.

4.4 Solid Waste Management

4.5.1 Solid waste composition

Ilala Municipality is estimated to produce about 1,088 tons of solid waste per day,

basing on a generation rate of 0.8 kg per person per day. The collection rate is around

550 tons per day which is approximately 50% of all solid waste generated per day.

Usually solid waste composition can be affected by economic and consumer pattern.

Feed back on waste composition is very important in evaluating the requirements or

specifications for equipment need, treatment system and management plans. According

to the study conducted by JICA in 1996/7, the composition of solid waste in the city of

Dar es Salaam was mainly food waste, garden waste, grass and wood. Information on

the composition of solid waste is important in evaluating equipment need, collection

system, disposal methods and management programmes plans. Table 124 shows the

estimated amount of solid waste generated in each ward per day.

Note: Calculations based on the assumption that production of solid waste per day per person

is 0.8 kg.

Variation in some Wards is due to business conducting during the day time where there are

many people from different parts of the city.

4.4.2 Solid waste collection and transportation

In regard to solid waste collection and transportation, there has been an increase in

rates of solid waste collected and transported to the disposal site since 2000, when

Council opted to work in partnerships with the private sector as contractors of solid

waste collection and transportation, the collection rate was increased from 195 tons to

420 tons per day in 2009 was collected and disposed off. Notwithstanding the slightly

improvements, but primary challenges that need to be addressed to further improve the

situation. Primary factors contributing to low level of solid waste collection are:-

fast population growth resulting in daily waste generation levels that exceed the

handling capacities of the council

limited financial resources which constrain the ability of the council to secure the

necessary infrastructures and appropriate equipment in adequate numbers to

provide the services

SECTION V OTHER DEVELOPMENT ISSUES

5.1 Day Care Centres

Nowadays parents tend to put children through day care centres and pre-schools prior

to join primary school education. In so doing children are prepared for the competition

in primary and secondary education. Children of age group of 3 to 4 are being sent to

day care centres while those in age group of 5 to 6 are found in pre-primary schools.

Table 125 shows the distribution of day care centres by division.

In 2010, the Municipality had 30 day care centers, 40% of all centre were found in Ilala

division and 33.3% were from Kariakoo division. In 2013, the number of day care

centres increased to 58 equivalent to 93.3% increases compared to number of day care

centre in 2010. See Table 125.

5.3 Women Protection and Development

According to 2012 Population Census, Ilala Municipality's sex ratio was 95. This means

that for every 100 women there are 95 men. Hence there were more women than men in

Ilala Municipality. Given the crucial role of women in economic development of the

family and Municipality as well, various income generating schemes focusing on

women has been started. In 2010, data available shows that there were 136 women

groups with 2,720 members. In 2013, there were 204 women economic groups, with

members being 600, who were engaged in a variety of economic activities such as petty

business, agriculture and animal husbandry. No data were available on the loan

provided to these women groups. There were also groups involved in loan schemes

known as VIKOBA (Village Community Bank) up to December, 2013 there were 527

groups with 15,810 members. Table 127 shows the women groups in Ilala Municipality

for the period between year 2010 to 2013.

Youth development groups are still few and weak. They are unregistered and with

meager membership. There have only been known youth groups between 2003 and

2005, whereby in 2004, there were only 27 youth groups in the District with 168

members. This number of youth groups in 2004 was a decreased one from 45 groups a

year before.

Between the period of 2000 and 2004, a total of 62.3 Million TShs were advanced to a

collective membership of 350 youth in the district. The volume of loans is also still

small. On a two-year average (2003-2004), a youth member in these groups received

loan of about 178,000TShs per annum, which is slightly above that of women.

By February 2013 a total of 403 youths have received training as follows:-

The Municipal Council in collaboration with VETA 150 youths from 20 Wards

have been trained in entrepreneurship

100 youths have received training in drug abuse

70 youths have received training on reproductive health

83 youths have received training on loans

Still, there is a need to boost youth membership into economic groups and to create

more financial opportunities for them.

financial schemes of other SACCOS or the banks whenever they become registered

attract more members, substantial loan volumes and average distribution of loans per

member is also higher. Table 129 shows that in the 2013 the Ilala Municipality had 240

SACCOS with the Total Value of Shares amounting to TShs 4,406,720,800/= as per

modest ones. Travels and tours are plenty.

5.8 Environmental Conservation

The major problem facing Ilala Municipality and any other districts in Tanzania with

respect to the environment are deforestation, degradation, poor/no planning,

urbanizations, over cropping and poor solid waste management. The overpopulation of

human beings and growth of the means of transport in Ilala Municipality has put

enormous pressure on the environment. The land has been depleted by need for various

infrastructures. Environmental conservation is now one of the areas which have drawn

a lot of support from the Government, NGOs, CBOs and any other Civil society. Table

5.10 Safety and Security

Urban safety and security is a deepening concern worldwide. Dar es Salaam’s situation

with regards to safety and security has been volatile due to increase in urban crimes

and violence, environmental degradation that tend to affect public health and

uncontrolled land development. These cumulatively tend to be of effect on safety and

security in one way or the other. Safety and security embrace various ingredients.

SECTION VI

POTENTIAL AREAS FOR INVESTMENTS

6.1 Education

Investment in the education sector at all levels from pre- primary school education to

University is now open to the private sector. Inadequate school infrastructures like

classrooms, desks, toilet, libraries and laboratories have been highlighted in section IV

of this document. Therefore, there is a very high potential in education for an investor

to make a choice. Assistance is needed to raise the standard of education. Moreover,

there is a need to invest in Teacher’s Training Colleges, University and Vocational

Training Centre.

131

Minazini Primary School

Kinyerezi secondary school

132

6.2 Health

The government has opened the door for private sector investment in health services

delivery. The government has created suitable environment for privatization of the

health sector. Malaria is currently the number one cause of morbidity and deaths in

Ilala Municipality. The increased use of Insecticide Treated Materials (ITM) like

mosquito nets offers a relatively cheap method of controlling the spread of malaria.

Health education and other preventive measures are desperately required. The supply

of STD drugs at affordable prices or even the establishment of STD treatment centers in

each ward under the qualified personnel could also have positive impact on HIV

infection control. Generally, the overloaded healthcare facilities in Ilala Municipality

need support especially in the control of HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, Malaria, and

improvement of MCH services. The private sector can increase its stake in establishing

and running of hospitals, health centers and dispensaries, and provide the highly

needed drugs and medical equipment in affordable costs.

133

Amana hospital

6.3 Market services

Ilala Municipal Council has 18 markets of which 5 are big markets and the rest are small

markets. There is a need for investing in an integrated market of variety of goods with

high security surrounding and make availability of good infrastructures and other

relevant services and also to have the market which will meet the demand of the influx.

Kisutu Market is one of Dar Es Salaam's smallest markets

134

6.4 Fisheries development

Fishing activities take place in Ilala Municipality particularly in the Indian Ocean. The

fishery potential of the Indian Ocean is still under utilized due to inadequate capital

and low technology. Hence, investments in modern fishing gears, and vessels, and

processing and storage could yield profitable and sustainable exploitation of these

fishery resources.

135

6.5 Women development

A number of Tanzanian laws are in place to protect women from harassment and give

them equal chance with men. Gender imbalances in public institutions, private

institutions and in political posts should continue to be rectified. There is still a lot of

room for advocacy on equality and equity with women. Poverty eradication goes hand

in hand with gender advocacy, hence, the process of empowering women economically

by providing credit financing to women economic group should be given priority.

6.6 Residential houses in Ilala Municipality

These houses are located in the prime areas and could be a good source of income if

apartments and other possible recreation facilities are constructed. Investment

opportunities existing in Ilala Municipal Council are mainly building investments. The

opportunities can be used using either one or a combination of the following

investment options:

6.6.1 Build and transfer

Using this option would mean wholly private funding of the investment costs,

whereby on agreement that the funds will be recovered from fees and charges to be

collected for a specific period. The complex being a public asset would remain the

property of the Council, whose other duty would be creation of legal framework

according to which activities on the premises will be controlled allowing investment

cost recovery for the specified period. The management contract will be the best of

management options whereby the council will not be involved in day to day

management, operation and maintenance.

6.6.2 Build-0perate-transfer

In this option, it is designed to tap private investment into construction of new

infrastructure. The private sector finances, builds and operates new infrastructure

facility according to the pre-set standards of the government. The operation period is

reasonably long, vis. about 10 to 20 years to allow the private company to pay off the

136

construction costs and realize a profit. The government retains ownership of the

infrastructure facilities and acts as both the customer and the regulator of the facility.

6.6.3 Mixed-capital partnership

These are joint ventures comprising Public Private Partners (PPP). In this investment

option public and private organizations assume co-responsibility and co-ownership for

delivery of infrastructure services. In this case it is essential that the company be

independent from the government and the private partner has the responsibility for

performing daily management operations.

6.7 Water supplies and sanitation

The coverage of the population with clean and safe water which is the right of every

Tanzanian is unsatisfactory. In urban areas sewage disposal is a problem and sanitation

is also inadequate. Financing for the construction and rehabilitation of urban water

supplies is called for. Emphasis should be made on water schemes which can be easily

maintained by the users themselves. The provisional of an adequate supply of water for

domestic, livestock, institutional, commercial and industrial use is the prerequisite to

community health, economic and social development. Governmental, NGO and

individual investment partners can pick suitable Wards to work with. Sanitation is most

acute in urban centres where investment is needed in toilet facilities by households and

public investment in public toilets and garbage collection and disposal.

6.8 Environmental conservation

Ilala Municipality in collaboration with NGOs and CBOs has done a lot in conserving

the environment. There are six gardens which should be developed namely Karimjee

Botanical Garden, Umoja wa Vijana, Mnazi Mmoja II, Palm Beach, India and Samora.

Reserves and Recreational Areas need to be maintained and conserved thoroughly

through daily watering facilities, planting trees and pruning, flowers, and fencing.

Mnazi Mmoja II and Kidongo Chekundu are areas to be considered. These and other

newer reserves will provide an opportunity to create well planted routes to complement

the street system. Intersections is another issue the same different level of the roads

137

meet to change the hierarch here transitions zone is formed and hence the need of

creative need of beautification by using indigenous exotic green vegetations.

Open spaces are vital areas which can be termed as ''Municipal Breathing Areas''. These

areas are now under utilized. The aim of maintaining open spaces is to achieve land

spaces which reflect both the wider Municipal landscape character and specific local

urban character. Some open spaces reserved in Ilala Municipal area: Stesheni, Mpilipili,

Ocean Road- Matunda, India/Samora, Barclays, Mnazi Mmoja and Areas outside State

House.

6. 9 Nurseries and aquaria

Nurseries such as Karimjee and Kinyamwezi produce below the targeted amount of

1,500,000 seedlings. No aquarium for indigenous and exotic species where we can

uphold botanical animals before being used in our city garden beautification. These

alien species need intensive Environmental Impact Assessment or studied in depth

before being introduced in City beautification project.

6.10 Municipal parks

Ilala Municipal Parks (IMP) is facing a number of problems including water scarcity,

this is mainly due to lack of efficient water infrastructures and overdependence on

DAWASCO which is not capable in delivering the service appropriately. The parks that

should be given priorities during the implementation processes are Jangwani Parks and

others includes Karimjee Botanical Garden, Umoja wa Vijana, Mnazi Mmoja II, Palm

Beach, India/Samora and Askari Monument.
