The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has not declared the External Payment Arrears (EPA) account issue closed as reported by the local media in recent weeks, IMF officials have said.
ReplyDeleteNeither has the fund softened its stance on other pending good governance issues in its relationship with the Government.
Officials handling Tanzania's docket said IMF would continue to pursue the EPA case to its conclusion and ensure that all pending issues were comprehensively addressed to its satisfaction.
The position was stated at the Bretton Woods Institutions annual general meetings in Washington following claims in some official quarters that the IMF had given Tanzania a clean bill of health on the matter. This prompted some Opposition leaders to accuse the IMF of impeding the war on corruption by refusing to adopt a hardline stance against the Government.
Numerous bloggers say the ruling party's operatives want to make political capital out of the reports that the IMF had declared the case closed, and that the Government is using the reports to repair its dented image on good governance.
The argument is that the matter should be closed following the IMF's statement and even the donor community had agreed to fund this year's budget, having previously threatened to withhold their money pending action on grand corruption scandals, including the EPA scam.
However, IMF officials said that expressing satisfaction with the measures the Government had taken so far in handling the multi-billion-shilling scandal did not mean that the case had been closed.
