President Samia Suluhu Hassan has ordered the Minister of Home Affairs to recruit a fisherman Majaliwa Jackson into the Fire and Rescue Force for his heroic act of saving 24 lives of people aboard Precision Air.
The President who was closely following the funeral ceremony held at Kaitaba Stadium in Kagera region told the Prime Minister, Kassim Majaliwa who was leading the ceremony to publicly make the instruction.
Speaking during the event, Prime Minister Kassim Majaliwa said the Rescue Force needs courageous men just like Majaliwa Jackson.
“Immediately after this ceremony, the Minister of the Home Affairs will meet this young man, take his address, follow all formalities and let us witness him going to the rescue force at once,” the Prime Minister said.
Additionally, he instructed the Permanent Secretary in the Prime Minister’s Office in the unit of coordination entrepreneurs to collect the names of all fishermen who were involved in the rescue mission for them to be trained.
His instructions came following a request made by the Kagera regional Commissioner earlier today asking for funds from the ministry for the training of the region’s fishermen.
