The International Smart Partnership Dialogue will be held in July and starting early June, later this year, Tanzania National Business Council (TNBC) has been tasked with raising awareness ahead of the highly anticipated convention.
The Lake zone meeting is part of the ongoing sensitisation meetings being carried out throughout the country.
The RC reminded the attendants of the numerous opportunities that the lake zone regions have to offer and that with proper utilisation of the concept, then fast and sustainable development will be achieved.
“I commend TNBC this sensitisation meeting is of vital importance … it is a challenge on our part and so we must act,” the RC said.
Willie Magehema, a TNBC business expert also reminded the attendants that, national development is a duty to all and not individual entities or the government alone.
Simba eye third slot
Coach Patrick Liewig.
The Dar es Salaam-based side who entered the 14-team league as defending champions have already been dethroned by archrivals Young Africans (Yanga) who won the title last week with two games to go.
A win for the Msimbazi Street side will make them reach 42 points, pushing aside Kagera Sugar. The Bukoba side are currently third on 40 points while Simba are berthed at 39.
Simba will likely use their second string side to face the armed forces side.
Coach Patrick Liewig had decided to use the second in most of their league matches after noticing that standards of most players who were in the first team had dropped.
Liewig is likely to depend on younger players such as Ramadhani Singano 'Messi', Adam Miraji, Abdallah Seseme and Rashid Mkoko.
FIFA instructs TFF to restart election
Leodegar Tenga
In a letter addressed to the TFF, FIFA has requested the body to hold an emergence general meeting that would workout amendments and approve new constitution before proceeding to hold election by October 30.
FIFA has earmarked certain flaws in the TFF constitution which includes lack of an organ that would be responsible to deal with football leaders’ degree of integrity and credulity.
TFF has been instructed to form a committee or organ within its secretariat that would be responsible for weighing integrity and another supreme organ to deal with appeals.
In a letter signed by FIFA secretary general Jerome Valcke TFF has been criticized for eliminating some of the election candidates who are alleged to have inferior integrity and have in the past found guilty of funds embezzlement but so far there has never been verdict.
FIFA requires those candidates who have been disqualified several times whenever there is an election should have their cases concluded instead of ditching them.
TFF president Leodegar Tenga told reporters at a press conference yesterday that FIAF had discussed the Tanzania’s election ambiguity on April 28 and came to that conclusion.

Azam walk on tight rope
Azam FC squad
The team needs to perfect and win the rest of the fixtures while praying for Yanga to stagnate at the 56-point mark, Azam’s maximum ceiling.
The ice-cream makers are nine points adrift of champions to be Yanga and meet Coastal Union on April 26 at the Mkwakwani Stadium in Tanga.
The Dar side is the only team which has the probability of attaining the mark already touched by Yanga after Sunday’s 3-0 wig over relegation-haunted JKT Ruvu.
Any other result other than victory for the ice-cream makers would automatically shatter their title chasing dreams for the season they fought gallantly to lift it.
Azam were not in action over the weekend following their CAF Confederation Cup commitment as they faced visiting Moroccan side AS Far to salvage barren draw.
Yanga need to win or at least pull a draw in one of their two remaining fixtures one against Coastal Union and the other versus dethroned champions Simba on May 18.
