December 3 and 4, 2024 witnessed the 5th Annual General Meeting of the Valuers’ Registration Board (VRB) taking place in Dodoma, during the same week that the Ardhi Week was taking place. The Guest of Honour for the VRB was the Minister for Lands, Hon Deogratius Ndejembi (MP). He admitted 34 new valuers to the rank of Fully Registered Valuers (FRV), after which he shared a few words of wisdom with the community of valuers.
The Minister urged the valuers to always express the true value of whatever they are valuing and not be swayed by circumstances of whoever needs the valuation. He decried the few cases where the values expressed by valuers in the private sector diverged significantly from those expressed by the office of the Chief Valuer (CV); and that this could be a source of disputes. The Minister said he was happy to meet the community of valuers any time to listen to their grievances.
