Proposal for One-Week Negotiation on Land Dispute in Toangoma

TLDR

• The Governor of Dar es Salaam, Albert Chalamila, held a public meeting with residents of Toangoma in the Temeke District regarding a long-standing land dispute with the National Social Security Fund (NSSF).
• Chalamila has given a one-week timeframe for negotiations between the residents and NSSF to reach an agreement before a final meeting to resolve the dispute.
• Residents have requested to purchase land from NSSF at a lower price of 5,000 TZS per square meter, compared to NSSF's offer of 15,000 TZS for Malela and 25,000 TZS for Mwapemba.
• The Assistant Land Commissioner for Dar es Salaam, Rehema Mwinuka, confirmed that the disputed land belongs to NSSF, which decided to sell it after it was encroached upon.
• Chalamila emphasized that during the negotiation period, residents should not be disturbed, and the previous offer from NSSF has been canceled to allow for a new plan.
