Dar es Salaam. The government has intensified pressure on State-Owned Enterprises (SOEs) and other public entities to improve efficiency and meet dividend and statutory payment obligations, as it targets higher revenue collections following a record Sh1.028 trillion haul in the 2024/25 financial year.
Treasury Registrar Nehemiah Mchechu issued the warning in Dar es Salaam over the weekend during a briefing ahead of Gawio Day, scheduled for State House on June 30, 2026.
