Dar es Salaam,The death of former Bank of Tanzania (BoT) Governor, Prof Benno Ndulu, brings the total number of prominent Tanzanians who have died over the past three weeks to 10. Details about the cause of his death were scanty but close relatives say he had been unwell for weeks before he was admitted 10 days ago. Prof Ndulu’s death came just two days after Tanzania lost its former Finance and Planning permanent secretary, Dr Servacius Likwelile. At the time of his death, Dr Likwelile was an economics don at the University of Dar es Salaam (UDSM). Between the year 2000 and 2002, Dr Khatib served as Minister of Home Affairs when Benjamin Mkapa was President.
