Security In Dar es Salaam

Tanzania is as dangerous a country as any other country around the world. These are the precautions that the students in the middle school are taking at home.

Many middle school students use the following precautions. A lot of them have their main doors locked during the day and some of the students have their doors locked after dark or just before.

After asking these questions we found out that a lot of the students have both security guards as well as watchdogs. We also found out that some of the student’s doors are locked at all times. The vast majority of student’s curfew hours are between 8:00pm and midnight.

SECURITY AS YOU WALK AROUND THE CITY

All you people out there who like wearing heavy jewellery be care full walking around town and at the beach there are a lot of criminals larking around. Watching every step you make then as soon as you know it your jewellery is gone.

There have been a few cases of robbery in Dar. So be careful with what you wear around your neck, on your fingers and on your ears and you should not wear gold since that’s what they are after. This doesn’t only happen during the night, it can also happen during the day in a big crowd of people.

As you can see some people take security seriously. People don’t even want to take a risk as you have seen from our information above and that you should take precautions when walking around town or at the beach.
