{A total of 5830 Rwandans who were evicted from Tanzania will be relocated from Kiyanzi and Rukara transit centres in Kirehe District where they have been living since August 2013 to various districts across the country.}<\/p>\n
About 14,253 Rwandans were evicted from Tanzania since August including 8,361 who have already been reunited with their families in various parts of the country.<\/p>\n
This past Saturday, the Minister of Local Government, James Musoni along with the mayors of all 30 districts visited the transit camps during the last Umuganda (Monthly Community Work) of the year to explain the government\u2019s plan is to reintegrate them into different communities within the week.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is no reason for Rwandans to stay in camps in their own country; that\u2019s why I am here with all Mayors who will help in the process to relocate you,\u201d said Minister Musoni<\/p>\n
Minister Musoni also encouraged them to take part in the ongoing development programmes in the areas where they will be resettled.<\/p>\n
Permanent resettlement <\/p>\n
The Minister of Disaster Management and Refugee Affairs told the evictees to work hard once they are permanently settled so that they can quickly recover what they lost during their rushed eviction.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe shall provide you with shelter, food, basic household materials, until you are able to live on your own,” said Min Mukantabana<\/p>\n
The ministry will provide building materials while districts provide land and permanent integration. As well, UN agencies such as World Food Programme, UNICEF and UNHCR will continue to assist with basic necessities.<\/p>\n
The 30 mayors in attendance returned to their districts with a list of persons to be resettled in their areas starting this Friday.<\/p>\n
