DAR ES SALAAM, Oct. 3 -- THE ACT Wazalendo party has pledged to abolish the fishing license system if it is given the mandate by citizens through its parliamentary and local government candidates in the upcoming general election this October.

This statement was made by the partys retired leader, Zitto Kabwe, during a campaign rally held in Kigamboni, Dar es Salaam, where he was campaigning for the partys parliamentary candidate for the constituency, Mwanaisha Mdeme.

Zitto stated that the current system, which requires fishermen to pay for boat licenses and licenses for their assistants, is oppressive and discriminatory when compared to other sectors, particularly agriculture.
