Dar es Salaam. The Msimbazi Basin Development Project in Dar es Salaam City may be further delayed after some residents of the flood-prone, but economically important Jangwani area rejected the compensation valuation accorded to them by authorities.
They say that the valuation of their properties is unrealistic and unfair because they are living in a legally recognised area, have invested in it, and deserve fair compensation. But the authorities are not willing to compensate them accordingly.
