TARURA TASKED TO TAKE DISCIPLINARY ACTION AGANIST HOTELITATU-PANDE ROAD CONTRACTORS
LINDI Regional Commissioner Ms Zainabu Telack has directed the Tanzania Rural and Urban Road Agency (TARURA) in the area to take disciplinary actions against the contractor constructing Hotelitatu -Pande Road in the region.
Ms Zainabu made the directives after she inspected the road and discovered serious irregularities done by MS Write In investment Group Limited contractor in the 14 kilometres road of Hotelitatu.
She directed TARURA to suspend the contractor from work and conduct investigation over his malpractices and mismanagement of road works.
The RC said TARURA ought to take immediate action to fix out the irregularities discovered, saying failure to do so will lead to misuse of government funds issued to construction of the road.
She said TARURA must uphold and meet value for money objectives in all the roads constructed in the region.
Acting TARURA District Manager in Kilwa, David Geoffrey said the road project (Hotelitatu -Pande Road project) worth 500m/- started in February 2022 and was scheduled to be completed by the end of August 2022.
He mentioned some of the irregularities discovered as lack of road canal adding that TARURA has instructed the constructor to clear out the irregularities immediately.
