President Jakaya Kikwete has showered praise on the National Social Security Fund (NSSF) for undertaking successful operations.
The President made the remarks on 4 March 2011 at the Ministry of Labour and Employment in Dar es Salaam during a scheduled tour.
He was speaking to the Minister for Labour and Employment Mrs. Gaudencia Kabaka, her deputy Dr. Makongoro Mahanga, senior Ministry officials and others high ranking officers from affiliated organizations.
NSSF, which falls under the Ministry of Labour and Employment was represented at the occasion by Acting Director General Mr. Crescentius Magori and the Director of Planning and Investments Mr. Yacoub Kidula.
The President was speaking after a presentation by the Minister covering the Ministry’s activities, achievements and challenges for the period 2006-2010.“NSSF is doing a tremendous job”, the President observed after hearing a list of projects that have been earmarked to be undertaken in 2011.
These include the Kiwira Coal mine Project in Mbeya, a power project to produce 300 Mega Watts in Dar es Salaam, construction of the Kigamboni Bridge and establishing a joint hospital in partnership with the Appolo Hospital of India.
The others are laying of a gas pipeline from Mtwara to Dar es Salaam, construction of a 100 km Dar es Salaam-Chalinze dual carriage road, and redevelopment of the Mchikichini slum area in Dar es Salaam.
However, the President was of the opinion that the Fund could earn more social and economic mileage if such houses could be affordable to Fund members and members of the General Public.
He also challenged NSSF Management to evaluate the possibility of extending special house loan to its members in which the Fund could build a house on a member’s plot and retain the title deed until the debt is fully repaid. The President promises to assist by providing more land plots for the Fund to achieve the goal.
