“I want to assure you that all businesspeople who will come to invest or do business with Tanzania, their capital would be protected and my government will accord them any necessary collaboration to make sure that their investment is successful for the mutual benefit of the people in our countries,’’ he said when speaking to Mr Sherlock of Ireland.

Dr Magufuli further thanked the heads of state of the four countries, whose diplomats presented credentials to him, assuring them that the historic bilateral relations between their countries and Tanzania would be enhanced for the mutual benefits of their people.
