Tanzania: State broadcaster changes name

The name of the state broadcaster of Tanzania is now the Tanzania Broadcasting Corporation, TBC. The Managing Director of the organisation, Mr Tido Mhando, says the changes are aimed at making TBC more self-reliant in conducting its business as a state corporation. Mr Mhando said the changes had been made by the corporation's board, which met recently and closed the position of assistant executive secretary and created four new senior management positions.
In the reforms, Ms Edah Sanga was appointed senior manager in charge of radio, Mr Joseph Rugarabamu appointed senior manager in charge of business and administration and the former technical director of TUT, Mr Harold Limo, was appointed acting technical director, TBC. Other appointments were Mr Clement Mshana who has been appointed director of programmes and acting general manager in charge of television. TBC got a new director in charge of news and features, Ms Susan Mungi, while Mr Ngalimecha Ngayoma becomes director of special programmes and public relations.
