Transport & Cities: Government has signed the Works Contract for Dodoma’s DIST project, backed by $200m, to upgrade key corridors and expand lanes. Digital & Skills: Tanzania is leaning on universities to digitise land governance and is also validating an ILO-backed apprenticeship roadmap to better match youth skills to labour-market needs. Business & Finance: Equity Group’s Q1 2026 results show profit up 24% to KSh19.1bn, with growth driven by regional units and more digital banking. Weather Watch: TMA warns of strong coastal winds for five days starting May 20, with risks to fishing and marine transport.
