TANZANIA should stop implementation of uranium mining projects until the public is well sensitized and educated on its serious side effects to human and environments.
It is high time for government of Tanzania to make serious decisions. I
support the move of exploiting uranium, i wish it could have started some
years back. Uranium is one of the best reliable sources of energy
particularly electricity. The exploitation of uranium will catalyse
industrialization of our country, hence economic development and attract
reliable investor who will create jobs, and well-being of the citizens.
However, knowledgeable and skilled local people in the country is key
citizens to own and manage their resources. Precautions of environmental
issues should be taken into account by formulating wider stakeholders
participatory policy and Act. The government should act systematically so
that by set date, it materialize. We need energy and manage our resources
for public interest.
Those companies which will be involved in the exploitation should set
win-win profit share of at least 51 by 49 otherwise stop the exploitation
Thanks
