Lindi/Mtwara. As residents of Nyengedi continue to wait for compensation and clarity over the fate of their land, The Citizen investigation has established that financial and administrative constraints are being cited as the main reasons behind the project's suspension.
Speaking on the matter, Mtama MP Nape Nnauye acknowledged the challenge, saying the biggest obstacle was the lack of implementation funds despite the project being included in government budgets.
“The problem indeed exists, but as a lawmaker, there is little I can do because the main challenge is that the government has not released funds despite allocating money for the project in fiscal year budgets,” he told The Citizen.
