Prime Minister Qasim Majaliwa has directed Regional Commissioners (RCs) and District Commissioners (DCs) across the country to convene youth economic forums to identify sustainable opportunities in their areas.
Likewise, he asked them to tap the internal revenue sources of their respective councils to complete some development projects in their respective areas without waiting for funds from the central government.
He issued the directive here on Friday while concluding a five-day training program attended by District Councils, District Executive Directors and Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) leaders from eight councils; namely Muleba, Bukoba DC, Biharamulo, Ngara, Karagwe, Kyerwa, Missenyi and Bukoba MC.
The Prime Minister explained that the sixth phase of the government under President Samia Suluhu Hassan is implementing the CCM 2020-2025 Election Manifesto, calling on all leaders across the country to work together to implement these directives.
"We are now almost halfway there; next year we will have citizens' elections and in 2025 we will have general elections. We must ensure that all the commitments made in the CCM manifesto are completed on time."
