In the latest development last month, the government secured multinational loan agreements to finance infrastructure and agriculture sectors.<\/p>\n<p>In this loan arrangement, the agriculture sector secured 166.4bn\/- to enhance TADB capital aimed at financing agricultural activities thus increasing production, strengthening food security, promoting the trade of products sold locally and abroad as well as increasing jobs and raising the economy for individual, family and the nation as whole.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking at the event, Minister for Finance, Dr Mwigulu Nchemba said, \u201cThrough this increase of capital, we expect TADB to increase access to loans for youth groups through the Building a Better Tomorrow (BBT) programme which continues to be implemented by the government through the Ministry of Agriculture.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However, Dr Nchemba said that it is the first time AfDB supported such kind of project, and added Tanzania benefited from AfDB\u2019s five main pillars of \u2018light up and power Africa, feed Africa, integrate Africa, Industrialise Africa and Improve the lives of people of Africa\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur country has benefited greatly in all these pillars since 1971, including construction, energy, water, education, agriculture, health and the private sector,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/tanzania\">Tanzania<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
