Dar es Salaam. The newly appointed Member of Parliament, Prof Shukrani Manya, promised today when taking the oath that he would work diligently with integrity towards pushing forward Tanzania’s development. Before being sworn in, Prof Mwanya was the executive secretary of the Mining Commission of Tanzania. He was sworn in today, December 11, 2020 by the Speaker of the National Assembly, Mr Job Ndugai, at Parliament grounds a few hours after President John Magufuli appointed Prof Manya as MP and Deputy Minister for Minerals. His appointment comes just a day after the would-be deputy Minister for Minerals, Mr Francis Ndulane, whose appointment was annulled after the latter failed to properly take his oath of office during the swearing in function at Chamwino State House. His appointment starts immediately and will be sworn in as the Deputy Minister this afternoon. Prof Manya thanked President Magufuli for having confidence in him to oversee the Ministry. “This is all God’s work, I did not plan to become the Deputy Minister today, but it goes to show that God is the decider for who we are today and tomorrow,” he said. After Swearing in Prof Manya, Speaker Ndugai urged him to work
hard and ensure he meets President’s Magufuli’s delivery speed for the development of Tanzania and its people. “Congratulations for being one of the President’s appointees, we are now awaiting three ACT Wazalendo’s MPs to make a decision whether they are ready to join us or continue roaming about,” he said.
