POOR turnout by teams at this year’s May Day tournament that started last Monday at Jamhuri Stadium in Dodoma has shocked Dodoma Regional Commissioner (RC), Jordan Rugimbana.

The RC also refuted a notion that the fifth phase government was discouraging workers from leaving their work place and travel to Dodoma to take part in the annual tournament.
Rugimbana made the remarks yesterday at the official opening of the event, insisting that he has never heard President John Magufuli discouraging workers from taking part in sports.
In his speech read on his behalf by the Dodoma Regional Youth Development Officer, Tumsifu Mwasambale, the RC said he was perturbed to hear that some employers have failed to send teams for the tournament because they think that doing so, would mean unnecessary government’s expenditure.
“I’m shocked to hear that many government institutions, which were regular participants in the tournament, have failed to field teams this year and the reason which has led to miss the games is the excuse given by the leaders that the president has forbidden the games.
This is a wrong notion and I have never heard about that order,” he said. The RC expressed his surprise that the fifth phase government slogan of ‘Hapa Kazi Tu’ is being misinterpreted.
“The call for hard work and deliverance should not be an excuse for employers to discourage their employees from taking part in sports activities,” he said. Rugimbana said active sports at workplace helps to build good relations among employees and employers improve health of employees and make them more active and productive. “A health worker will certainly be productive and provide best service to the citizens,” he said.
Earlier, in her speech, the Acting Vice-Chairperson of the May Day Games Committee, Joyce Benjamin blamed employers for the low turnout of participants in this year’s games compared to previous years.
Benjamin said that until recently, only 14 teams had arrived in Dodoma to participate in the tournament, while most institutions have been restricted by their employers without having good grounds.
“I just want to remind you that our president is a true sportsman,” she said, adding that May Day Games have the blessing from National Sports Council (NSC). May Day games involve various sports, including football, netball, tug-of-war, darts , athletics and cycling.
Organisations which have sent their teams in this year’s competition are Tanzania Petroleum Development Corporation (TPDC), The Ministry of Transport and Communication, Capital Development Authority (CDA) and Tanzania Electric Supply Company (TANESCO).
Others are CWT, TAMISEMI and Geita Gold Mine. Also there is RAS Manyara, Nyasa District Council and Mgombasi from Iringa
