FOREWORD
Availability of accurate and adequate data is an essential aspect in the development
planning process. It is unquestionable that development plans that are based on
unreliable and inadequate data, are likely to be poorly implemented and unsustainable.
Therefore, efforts to gather accurate and reliable data is inevitable if development plans
aimed at improving the livelihoods of communities have to be attained. Reliable data is
also important when considering the implementation of the Tanzania’s Development
Vision 2025 with the NSGRPII (MKUKUTA II) and the Millennium Development Goals
(MDGs) as its implementation vehicles.
The increase in population for Dar es Salaam City and in particular Ilala Municipality
has increased pressure on provision of social and economic services to her people.
Social and economic services are still deteriorating and are becoming unsustainable.
Absence of accurate and reliable data has also hampered efforts of Ilala Municipal
Council to provide timely and quality services to all stakeholders.
After realizing the aforesaid problems, Ilala Municipal Council embarked on improving
its Socio-Economic Profile as an attempt to assess the situation and find a solution to
this data and information gap.
This document covers a wide range of data and information on the geography,
population, socio-economic parameters, social services, economic infrastructure and the
productive sectors. It also provides information on the potential investment areas in the
region. Such data and information will enable policy and decision makers to take
informed decisions. Furthermore, the information will be used by planners, researchers,
development partners and functional managers in planning, implementation,
monitoring and evaluation of development activities.
xii
Ilala Municipal Council Socio-Economic Profile contains detailed data and information
on the Municipal Council. It is expected that such data will prove to be valuable and
informative to our clients. However, constructive views and criticisms are still invited
from the readers to enable this profile to become a better tool in the planning and
implementation of development activities in the Municipality.
Lastly but not least, I wish to thank the staff of Ilala Municipal Council and the Institute
of Rural Development Planning Dodoma, for their devotion in ensuring the successful
compilation of this document.

ILALA MUNICIPAL COUNCIL- UNIQUE FEATURES
There are many unique features in Ilala Municipality due to its history, coupled with Dar
es Salaam being the original capital city of the country and Ilala as the major commercial
centre in Tanzania. The Municipality has many features that may be of interest to
historians and tourists together with investors. They range from man-made features like
buildings and other infrastructures, to natural sites some of which have been cited
below;
Dar es Salaam Harbour
Dar es Salaam, exemplifies its Arabic root, meaning “Heaven of Peace”, that was
discovered in 1862 by the Sultan of Oman’s son. Two centuries later, it has made good
use of its location as a natural harbour. It is a competitive port not only boasting of
serving East and Central Africa’s landlocked countries (Malawi, Zambia, Democratic
Republic of Congo, Burundi, Rwanda and Uganda), but also the Middle and Far East,
Europe, Australia and America.

The State House
Is a renovated old German building near the entrance to the largest harbour in the
Country. The building is the office cum residence of the Head of State. This feature
coupled with a Ragas robust sculpture mounted on a granite plinth donated by a
famous German photographer Hans Meyer in 1911 at the main western gate of the
State House form spectacular scenery as you approach the harbour from the Indian

Ilala Municipal Council is one of the first 38 Local Government Authorities, which went
through restructuring process under phase one of the Local Government Reform
Programme (LGRP) for the purpose of meeting qualities required by the Local
Government Act No. 6 of 1999 which aims at devolving political, legal, administrative
and financial powers to local authorities. Ilala Municipal Council came into existence
after a decade of poor performance of the then Dar es Salaam City Council that
prompted the government to form a probe team that produced Mulokozi Report in
1992. In 1993, following this report, the government decided to restructure the local
government system of the City of Dar es salaam. Later in 1996, the government
abolished the City Council and appointed the Dar es Salaam City Commission as an
interim administration with the broad terms of references of the three restructuring
programmes.
One of the programmes was establishment of the three new Municipal Councils namely
Ilala, Temeke and Kinondoni, which aimed at responding to the local demands and
conditions for best delivery of services. Thus, Ilala Municipal Council (together with
citywide Authority and the other two Municipalities) was officially established on 1st
February 2001.
Ilala Municipal Council is administratively divided into three Divisions of Ilala, Ukonga
and Kariakoo. The district’s divisions are divided into wards which in turn are
subdivided into mitaa. The ward consists of a certain number of mitaa. The Municipal
Council is made up of 26 wards and 101 mitaa. Table 2 shows the distribution of wards
and mitaa by division in Ilala Municipality.

1.3 Ethnicity
The main native ethnic groups in Ilala Municipality are the Zaramo and Ndengereko,
However, due to urbanization; many people of different ethnic backgrounds have
immigrated into the Municipality making it heterogonous in terms of tribal
composition. There is no single ethnic group that accounts for more than 25% of the
total population. Ilala is the most affected area in the City due to its strategic location as
the hub for social-economic activities and other interactions. The rapid economic
growth of the Dar es Salaam City also attracts the influx of people from different
corners of the country and outside the country.
1.4 Key Population Characteristics
1.4.1 Introduction
The first countrywide census was carried out in 1948, followed by those of 1957, 1967,
1978, 1988, 2002 and that of 2012. However, for Ilala Municipality the only available
data were for the censuses of 2002 and 2012. These censuses documented the age
groups, occupation, migration, education, water, health, sanitation and electricity. From
the two censuses the following general trends have been deduced. The population of
females continued to be larger than that of males while illiteracy continued to be higher
among females than males. Generally literacy is increasing among both sexes. Shop
salesmen, small-scale traders and Labourers continued to be the dominant economic
activities of the people. Infant mortality rate (IMR), under five mortality rate (U5MR)
and Maternal Mortality Rate (MMR) continued to decline.
1.4.2 Population size, growth and density
Ilala Municipal Council population growth rates increased from 4.6% in 2002 to 5.6% in
2012. This could be attributed to improved health services in the Municipality and
standard of living. Migration into the Municipality is an additional factor contributing
to the faster growth rate. Table 4 shows population growth from 2002 to 2012

The population of Ilala Municipality increased from 634,924 to 1,220,611 between 2002
and 2012, which is about 92.2% increase. This increase has effects on provision of social
services to all stakeholders of Ilala Municipality. The increase was much higher in
Ukonga division where there was an increase of 475,778 people between the two inter-
census period as shown in Table 5.

increased from an average of 3,022 people per sq.kms to 5,810 people per sq.kms as
shown in Table 6.

1.4.3 Households and households size
According to the 2012 Population and Housing Census, Ilala Municipality had a total of
300,674 households spread into 26 wards with Vingunguti ward recording the highest
number of households (28,994 households). Kivukoni ward had the lowest number of
households (1,343 households) as shown in Table 3. This is partly due to the fact that
most of the buildings in this area are Government Offices with very few buildings for
residential purposes.
Based on the 2012 Population and Housing Census, the sex ratio for Ilala Municipality
was at 95 indicating that there were more females than males in the Municipality.
Kariakoo ward had the highest sex ratio at 113 and Kimanga ward had the lowest sex
ratio of 90 (Table 3).
1.4.4 Migration
It is well known that natural increase in any locality is not the only factor which affects
population size and growth density. Deaths also affect population growth and density
negatively while migration can affect population positively or negatively. Ilala
Municipality is facing a problem of migration whereby the majority of Dar es Salaam
29
citizens spend their day time in Ilala Municipality, but are residents of other
Municipalities. Ilala Municipality seems to have small population compared to other
councils and this is due to the census approach used, which counts people based on
where they spent the night preceding census day. In part, this approach could be
underestimating the actual population of the Municipality.
It is estimated that the Dar es Salaam population is 5 million during the day. As a result,
Ilala always faces problems of inadequacy social services like water, health and
infrastructures. The Municipality also suffers from environmental pollution because the
increase in population is not accompanied by expansion of social services to meet the
increased demand for social services.
1.5 Climate And Soils
The municipality has humid temperatures that vary from 260C in August to 350C in
December and January. The long rains season (March – May) receives an average
monthly rainfall of 150mm – 300mm. The short rains season is between October and
December with monthly average rainfall ranging from 75mm – 100mm. Ilala
Municipality’s altitude that ranges between 0 and 900 meters above sea level influences
the ecological characteristics of the Municipality. Thus, the Municipality consists of a
large lowland area and a small part forming the upland zone. The lowland areas start
where the Municipality borders with the Indian Ocean (Kivukoni ward) and extends to
Segerea, Ukonga and Kitunda wards. Beyond these wards, the small upland areas
emerge as small hills or plateaus of Pugu, Kinyerezi, Chanika and Msongola wards.
Whereas most of the lowland areas constitute the urban part of the Municipality, the
upland areas are predominantly agricultural and peri-urban in character. The soil type
in these areas consists of sand, clay and loam properties.

2.4.1.9 Irrigated agriculture
Ilala Municipal Council has a total of 4,000 hectors potential for irrigation farming.
However, only 66 hectors are currently irrigated using seasonal and permanent streams,
deep and shallow wells. Irrigation farming takes place mostly in Ukonga division. Most
of the farmers depend on rain fed agriculture and irrigation on small scale. Two small
irrigation schemes have been established at Kidole and Zingiziwa in Msongola and
Chanika wards, respectively. Presently, Ilala Municipal Council is conducting a
feasibility study for two irrigation schemes at Mzinga River and Zogoali valley in
Msongola and Chanika wards aiming to increase production throughout the year.
Generally, land which is suitable for traditional irrigation is found at Ukonga division
only. These areas include Valley of Mzinga, Kizinga rivers, Kitunda, Yangeyange and
Bulampaka valley, Kidole, Mbondole, Zingiziwa and Uwanja wa Nyani hamlets. Ilala
and Kariakoo divisions have no potentials area for irrigation.
The presence of ward Resource Centre at Kinyamwezi has enabled farmers to acquire
integrated farming skills offered by the centre. About 1,000 farmers are trained every
year. The centre also produces various seedlings and sells to farmers at affordable
prices. The potential areas for irrigation in Ilala Municipality are indicated in Table 14.

4.1.6 Child nutrition
78
Nutrition-wise, children are at their most vulnerable stage at age of less than one year.
Malnutrition in young children is recognized as a symptom of imbalanced in children’s
food intake. The measles vaccination is earliest at 9 months. Hence, the weight of a child
at this time is a measure not only of the capacity of the family to feed the child correctly
but also of the effectiveness of the child health education given to mothers regarding
the development of their children. Table 64 shows the distribution of children under
one year who were under-weight at the time of their measles vaccination by division.
No child was found to be moderately underweight and severely underweight.

childhood diseases is the under one year group. The most likely childhood diseases
which children may suffer are Tuberculosis, Diphtheria, Petusis, Tetanus, Polio and
Measles. These diseases are preventable by vaccination. Table 65 shows the distribution
of vaccinations with BCG of children under one year by Division.

In rural areas access to western medicine is limited and people tends to use traditional
medicine. Traditional doctors and traditional birth attendants (TBAs) also provide
health care to rural people. Table 67 shows the distribution of complementary rural
healthcare services by division with Ukonga division recording the highest number of
traditional medical practitioners.

4.2 The Education Sector
4.2.1 Introduction
Education is an important tool needed for clear understanding, judgment and decision
making in most issues ranging from economic, political and social. The Municipality
83
has invested in education sector in different levels which are pre-primary, primary,
secondary and vocational training colleges.
For the purpose of promoting education status in the region as a whole, pre-primary
education establishment and development has become not only crucial but also
necessary for the target groups. The Municipality has a total of 137 pre-primary schools
out of which 82 are government owned and 55 schools are private owned. See Table 71.

Looking at Table 71, the data indicates that there is a good participation of private
sector in pre-primary schools. However, more efforts need to be taken to ensure that the
private sector participates fully in this important area of education for the children
under six years. Table 72 shows the trend in the number of pre-primary schools in Ilala
Municipality for five years whereby the number increased from 114 in 2009 to 137
schools in 2013.

A share of private sector in total enrolment was higher compared to that of public at
62.5%. Relating with the number of pre-schools private owned, it indicates that the
schools enrolled above their capacity. A closer look at Table 73 shows that Ukonga
division enrolled 65.4% of the total enrollment in Ilala Municipal Council.

4.2.3 Primary school enrolment
4.2.3.1 Introduction
The right to primary school education belongs to every school child in the country. The
introduction of Primary Education Development Programme (PEDP) in July 2001 aimed
at making primary education available to every Tanzanian child of the school going
age. This enabled children of age group between 7 and above, to be enrolled in standard
one.
4.2.3.2 Primary schools
Primary education is delivered at least in every Mtaa in the Municipality using
Education Policy of 1995. In 2013, the Municipality had 165 primary schools, where 105
schools were government owned and 60 were private owned. Of the 105 public
primary schools in Ilala Municipality, Ilala division had 28.6% while Ukonga had 57.1%
and Kariakoo had 14.3% (see Table 75).

4.4 Solid Waste Management
4.5.1 Solid waste composition
Ilala Municipality is estimated to produce about 1,088 tons of solid waste per day,
basing on a generation rate of 0.8 kg per person per day. The collection rate is around
550 tons per day which is approximately 50% of all solid waste generated per day.
Usually solid waste composition can be affected by economic and consumer pattern.
Feed back on waste composition is very important in evaluating the requirements or
specifications for equipment need, treatment system and management plans. According
to the study conducted by JICA in 1996/7, the composition of solid waste in the city of
Dar es Salaam was mainly food waste, garden waste, grass and wood. Information on
the composition of solid waste is important in evaluating equipment need, collection
system, disposal methods and management programmes plans. Table 124 shows the
estimated amount of solid waste generated in each ward per day.

Note: Calculations based on the assumption that production of solid waste per day per person
is 0.8 kg.
Variation in some Wards is due to business conducting during the day time where there are
many people from different parts of the city.
4.4.2 Solid waste collection and transportation
In regard to solid waste collection and transportation, there has been an increase in
rates of solid waste collected and transported to the disposal site since 2000, when
Council opted to work in partnerships with the private sector as contractors of solid
waste collection and transportation, the collection rate was increased from 195 tons to
420 tons per day in 2009 was collected and disposed off. Notwithstanding the slightly
improvements, but primary challenges that need to be addressed to further improve the
situation. Primary factors contributing to low level of solid waste collection are:-
fast population growth resulting in daily waste generation levels that exceed the
handling capacities of the council
limited financial resources which constrain the ability of the council to secure the
necessary infrastructures and appropriate equipment in adequate numbers to
provide the services

SECTION V OTHER DEVELOPMENT ISSUES
5.1 Day Care Centres
Nowadays parents tend to put children through day care centres and pre-schools prior
to join primary school education. In so doing children are prepared for the competition
in primary and secondary education. Children of age group of 3 to 4 are being sent to
day care centres while those in age group of 5 to 6 are found in pre-primary schools.
Table 125 shows the distribution of day care centres by division.

In 2010, the Municipality had 30 day care centers, 40% of all centre were found in Ilala
division and 33.3% were from Kariakoo division. In 2013, the number of day care
centres increased to 58 equivalent to 93.3% increases compared to number of day care
centre in 2010. See Table 125.

5.3 Women Protection and Development
According to 2012 Population Census, Ilala Municipality's sex ratio was 95. This means
that for every 100 women there are 95 men. Hence there were more women than men in
Ilala Municipality. Given the crucial role of women in economic development of the
family and Municipality as well, various income generating schemes focusing on
women has been started. In 2010, data available shows that there were 136 women
groups with 2,720 members. In 2013, there were 204 women economic groups, with
members being 600, who were engaged in a variety of economic activities such as petty
business, agriculture and animal husbandry. No data were available on the loan
provided to these women groups. There were also groups involved in loan schemes
known as VIKOBA (Village Community Bank) up to December, 2013 there were 527
groups with 15,810 members. Table 127 shows the women groups in Ilala Municipality
for the period between year 2010 to 2013.

5.4 Youth Development Groups
Youth development groups are still few and weak. They are unregistered and with
meager membership. There have only been known youth groups between 2003 and
2005, whereby in 2004, there were only 27 youth groups in the District with 168
members. This number of youth groups in 2004 was a decreased one from 45 groups a
year before.
Between the period of 2000 and 2004, a total of 62.3 Million TShs were advanced to a
collective membership of 350 youth in the district. The volume of loans is also still
small. On a two-year average (2003-2004), a youth member in these groups received
loan of about 178,000TShs per annum, which is slightly above that of women.
By February 2013 a total of 403 youths have received training as follows:-
The Municipal Council in collaboration with VETA 150 youths from 20 Wards
have been trained in entrepreneurship
100 youths have received training in drug abuse
70 youths have received training on reproductive health
83 youths have received training on loans
Still, there is a need to boost youth membership into economic groups and to create
more financial opportunities for them.
123

5.5.1 SACCOS and their Membership
SACCOS is an opportunity for citizens to save and to provide short term finances to
facilitate their own economic activities through cooperative schemes. The groups are
loosely registered with Cooperative department of the Municipality or formally
registered with government licensing authorities. The groups may also access other
financial schemes of other SACCOS or the banks whenever they become registered
entity with bank accounts.
124
The SACCOS are advanced economic groups than the women or youth groups. They
attract more members, substantial loan volumes and average distribution of loans per
member is also higher. Table 129 shows that in the 2013 the Ilala Municipality had 240
SACCOS with the Total Value of Shares amounting to TShs 4,406,720,800/= as per

potential to contribute even more to the development of the country. There are a
number of tourist attractions at Ilala Municipal Council available are categorized into
two groups of Landmarks, Museums and Art Galleries, libraries and cultural centres
including Zingiziwa Zoo and historical Mango tree at Kibasila and other attraction
centers. There are several Hotels and Restaurants, Bars, Recreational areas, Conference
facilities to accommodate tourists in the Municipality. Among those they are famous
modest ones. Travels and tours are plenty.
5.8 Environmental Conservation
The major problem facing Ilala Municipality and any other districts in Tanzania with
respect to the environment are deforestation, degradation, poor/no planning,
urbanizations, over cropping and poor solid waste management. The overpopulation of
human beings and growth of the means of transport in Ilala Municipality has put
enormous pressure on the environment. The land has been depleted by need for various
infrastructures. Environmental conservation is now one of the areas which have drawn
a lot of support from the Government, NGOs, CBOs and any other Civil society. Table
132 shows the more active NGOs and CBOs in the field of environmental conservation
in Ilala Municipality.

5.10 Safety and Security
Urban safety and security is a deepening concern worldwide. Dar es Salaam’s situation
with regards to safety and security has been volatile due to increase in urban crimes
and violence, environmental degradation that tend to affect public health and
uncontrolled land development. These cumulatively tend to be of effect on safety and
security in one way or the other. Safety and security embrace various ingredients.

SECTION VI
POTENTIAL AREAS FOR INVESTMENTS
6.1 Education
Investment in the education sector at all levels from pre- primary school education to
University is now open to the private sector. Inadequate school infrastructures like
classrooms, desks, toilet, libraries and laboratories have been highlighted in section IV
of this document. Therefore, there is a very high potential in education for an investor
to make a choice. Assistance is needed to raise the standard of education. Moreover,
there is a need to invest in Teacher’s Training Colleges, University and Vocational
Training Centre.
132
6.2 Health
The government has opened the door for private sector investment in health services
delivery. The government has created suitable environment for privatization of the
health sector. Malaria is currently the number one cause of morbidity and deaths in
Ilala Municipality. The increased use of Insecticide Treated Materials (ITM) like
mosquito nets offers a relatively cheap method of controlling the spread of malaria.
Health education and other preventive measures are desperately required. The supply
of STD drugs at affordable prices or even the establishment of STD treatment centers in
each ward under the qualified personnel could also have positive impact on HIV
infection control. Generally, the overloaded healthcare facilities in Ilala Municipality
need support especially in the control of HIV/AIDS, Tuberculosis, Malaria, and
improvement of MCH services. The private sector can increase its stake in establishing
and running of hospitals, health centers and dispensaries, and provide the highly
needed drugs and medical equipment in affordable costs.
133
Amana hospital
6.3 Market services
Ilala Municipal Council has 18 markets of which 5 are big markets and the rest are small
markets. There is a need for investing in an integrated market of variety of goods with
high security surrounding and make availability of good infrastructures and other
relevant services and also to have the market which will meet the demand of the influx.
Kisutu Market is one of Dar Es Salaam's smallest markets
134
6.4 Fisheries development
Fishing activities take place in Ilala Municipality particularly in the Indian Ocean. The
fishery potential of the Indian Ocean is still under utilized due to inadequate capital
and low technology. Hence, investments in modern fishing gears, and vessels, and
processing and storage could yield profitable and sustainable exploitation of these
fishery resources.
Magogoni Fish Markert
135
6.5 Women development
A number of Tanzanian laws are in place to protect women from harassment and give
them equal chance with men. Gender imbalances in public institutions, private
institutions and in political posts should continue to be rectified. There is still a lot of
room for advocacy on equality and equity with women. Poverty eradication goes hand
in hand with gender advocacy, hence, the process of empowering women economically
by providing credit financing to women economic group should be given priority.
6.6 Residential houses in Ilala Municipality
These houses are located in the prime areas and could be a good source of income if
apartments and other possible recreation facilities are constructed. Investment
opportunities existing in Ilala Municipal Council are mainly building investments. The
opportunities can be used using either one or a combination of the following
investment options:
6.6.1 Build and transfer
Using this option would mean wholly private funding of the investment costs,
whereby on agreement that the funds will be recovered from fees and charges to be
collected for a specific period. The complex being a public asset would remain the
property of the Council, whose other duty would be creation of legal framework
according to which activities on the premises will be controlled allowing investment
cost recovery for the specified period. The management contract will be the best of
management options whereby the council will not be involved in day to day
management, operation and maintenance.
6.6.2 Build-0perate-transfer
In this option, it is designed to tap private investment into construction of new
infrastructure. The private sector finances, builds and operates new infrastructure
facility according to the pre-set standards of the government. The operation period is
reasonably long, vis. about 10 to 20 years to allow the private company to pay off the
136
construction costs and realize a profit. The government retains ownership of the
infrastructure facilities and acts as both the customer and the regulator of the facility.
6.6.3 Mixed-capital partnership
These are joint ventures comprising Public Private Partners (PPP). In this investment
option public and private organizations assume co-responsibility and co-ownership for
delivery of infrastructure services. In this case it is essential that the company be
independent from the government and the private partner has the responsibility for
performing daily management operations.
6.7 Water supplies and sanitation
The coverage of the population with clean and safe water which is the right of every
Tanzanian is unsatisfactory. In urban areas sewage disposal is a problem and sanitation
is also inadequate. Financing for the construction and rehabilitation of urban water
supplies is called for. Emphasis should be made on water schemes which can be easily
maintained by the users themselves. The provisional of an adequate supply of water for
domestic, livestock, institutional, commercial and industrial use is the prerequisite to
community health, economic and social development. Governmental, NGO and
individual investment partners can pick suitable Wards to work with. Sanitation is most
acute in urban centres where investment is needed in toilet facilities by households and
public investment in public toilets and garbage collection and disposal.
6.8 Environmental conservation
Ilala Municipality in collaboration with NGOs and CBOs has done a lot in conserving
the environment. There are six gardens which should be developed namely Karimjee
Botanical Garden, Umoja wa Vijana, Mnazi Mmoja II, Palm Beach, India and Samora.
Reserves and Recreational Areas need to be maintained and conserved thoroughly
through daily watering facilities, planting trees and pruning, flowers, and fencing.
Mnazi Mmoja II and Kidongo Chekundu are areas to be considered. These and other
newer reserves will provide an opportunity to create well planted routes to complement
the street system. Intersections is another issue the same different level of the roads
137
meet to change the hierarch here transitions zone is formed and hence the need of
creative need of beautification by using indigenous exotic green vegetations.
Open spaces are vital areas which can be termed as ''Municipal Breathing Areas''. These
areas are now under utilized. The aim of maintaining open spaces is to achieve land
spaces which reflect both the wider Municipal landscape character and specific local
urban character. Some open spaces reserved in Ilala Municipal area: Stesheni, Mpilipili,
Ocean Road- Matunda, India/Samora, Barclays, Mnazi Mmoja and Areas outside State
House.
6. 9 Nurseries and aquaria
Nurseries such as Karimjee and Kinyamwezi produce below the targeted amount of
1,500,000 seedlings. No aquarium for indigenous and exotic species where we can
uphold botanical animals before being used in our city garden beautification. These
alien species need intensive Environmental Impact Assessment or studied in depth
before being introduced in City beautification project.
6.10 Municipal parks
Ilala Municipal Parks (IMP) is facing a number of problems including water scarcity,
this is mainly due to lack of efficient water infrastructures and overdependence on
DAWASCO which is not capable in delivering the service appropriately. The parks that
should be given priorities during the implementation processes are Jangwani Parks and
others includes Karimjee Botanical Garden, Umoja wa Vijana, Mnazi Mmoja II, Palm
Beach, India/Samora and Askari Monument.
