Dar es Salaam. The managing directors and executive officers of 19 state-owned firms have been assured of retaining their jobs following the government’s decision of merging them (parastatals) and remain with seven.
The decision comes two months since President Samia Suluhu Hassan gave her approval for reforming those parastatals and institutes so that they can be run more efficiently and contribute to the growth of the country’s economy.
