Jokate Mwegelo Instagram – Yesterday, I had the honour of participating in the “Jukwaa la Fikra” Forum, organized by Mwananchi Communications Limited (MCL) in collaboration with the Ministry of Works. I represented the youth of Tanzania in a panel discussion themed: “Building Bridges, Building a Nation – Infrastructure as a Catalyst for Inclusive Growth.”
In my contribution, I highlighted the economic and social opportunities arising from the construction of the JP Magufuli Bridge, while also calling upon relevant authorities to consider the establishment of a National Framework for Youth Engagement in Infrastructure Development.
While infrastructure projects continue to generate employment, I emphasized that Tanzanian youth must also be empowered financially and institutionally, to enable their full and meaningful participation. It is through such empowerment that young people can demonstrate their capabilities, creativity, and direct involvement in national development.
We commend Her Excellency President @samia_suluhu_hassan for her exemplary leadership and for prioritizing the nation’s interests, while remaining deeply committed to creating inclusive opportunities for young people in both the present and the future of our country. | Posted on 23/Jun/2025 14:09:03
