The new government has resurrected the spirit of the national building. It envisions to take Tanzania to the middle-class economy by 2025. These constitute some of government efforts to alleviate the nation against extreme poverty, national dependency and growing Gross National Product (GDP). Industrialization is viewed as a vital catalyst in pursuing Tanzania’s vision with endless efforts fuelled by patriotic mindset. In addition, the government has been a key player in laying the framework for the conducive and friendly environment that support Foreign Direct Investment(FDRs) while offering avenues for local players to showcase their capabilities in achieving this foresight. Despite positive signals of a growing middle class in the country; health sector in Tanzania is still lacking behind as a result of some chronic challenges that hinder the growth of health sector.
