Bright future: The economics of street lights in Tanzania

 When we examine Tanzania’s history, we have gone backwards in many ways.

If you look at the past, you will see people orderly queuing to board public transportation, but today, we are fighting for space like pigs. You look at the well-planned streets with paved roads in Magomeni, Kinondoni, or Chang’ombe of old and marvel at the madness that ensued afterwards. When compared to the makeshift structures we erect now, schools of yesteryears like Ilboru, Kibaha, and Moshi Technical are in sharp contrast.
