He said in the review of water projects from 2013 to 2018 there were water projects investigated by experts from the ministry of finance where only Tsh.17 billion projects were real out of Tsh.119 billion spent.
"Of the 119 billion claims of the project carried out was 17 billion so all other projects were fake. Government officials demanded money for water projects but the water supply is still not satisfying much as if money was not paid"
He told the minister of water:
'' I have taken you there to make a change So that the water projects planned here are worth 45 billion and you have said the contractors will be on the site by the ninth month.
'' Now I ask the minister and your administrators to be realistic, if you have the ability to smoke marijuana so that they can make you more aggressive, smoke but make sure they do not see you smoking ''.
