Tax collectors just hit the streets for a community walk to bridge the gap with the public. The Tanzania Revenue Authority Workers Union held this solidarity event in Dodoma alongside its annual meeting. Union head Lutufyo Mtafya stated the goal is to foster safer workplaces and cooperative economic relationships with taxpayers.

The initiative reflects TRA Commissioner General Yusuph Juma Mwenda's vision for fair, positive engagement. Mtafya believes successful taxpayers enable secure and sustainable revenue collection for staff. The multi-day gathering also included a fun run combined with a tax advice clinic.

A blood donation drive allowed members to give back, noted National Women’s Committee Chairperson Jeniffer Melanie Mathias. She emphasized the union's commitment to fair service and public education on proper tax practices. The events aimed to bring revenue collectors and the community closer together.

Leadership elections were a central part of the gathering. Members elected Lutufyo Mtafya as National Chairman, Fatuma Mshui as Deputy National Chairperson, and Michael Marere as National Secretary. Jeniffer Melanie Mathias and Dorothy Msofu won roles leading the women’s committee.

Election overseer Tumaini Kichila cautioned other groups to respect democratic principles during leadership choices. He warned that ignoring such rights could disrupt peace between officials and the citizens they serve.
