He added, “Every step we take is aimed at building a better nation, better today than it was yesterday. This is a country that grows every day.”
He noted that under the 2020–2025 Election Manifesto, the CCM led government has prioritised key sectors, including education, health, infrastructure, agriculture, manufacturing, livestock and fisheries, areas that directly impact the livelihoods of citizens.
Amb Nchimbi said the government remained committed to sustainable land use, ensuring that the needs of both current and future generations are met.
Citing key achievements in Rukwa Region, he said major infrastructure projects have been implemented, including the construction of the 107-kilometre Matai–Kalambo Road, the 50-km Matai–Kahingese Road and the renovation of Kasanga Port.
As a result, the tarmac road network in Sumbawanga Town has expanded from 29.2-km to 46.72- km.
In the health sector, he said the government has constructed four district council hospitals, while also noting the increase of health centres from two to six, and the growth in the number of medical personnel from 260 to 450.
In support of education, capitation funds for school operations in the region rose from 3.6bn/- to 9bn/-. He said around 64 water projects have been implemented to improve access to clean water.
Amb Nchimbi promised that in the next five years, CCM aims to construct three more health centres, purchase five new ambulances, build two secondary schools, eight primary schools and 188 classrooms.
He further said that the party plans to construct 220 new dams and install 30 fish cages, along with enhancing industrial parks in every district of Rukwa Region, based on the most widely produced local products.
Later in Katavi Region, Amb Nchimbi listed additional achievements under President Samia Suluhu Hassan’s leadership during the sixth phase government.
