13 New Government Job Vacancies at PANGANI District Council | Deadline 18th September, 2019
Pangani is a town in northeast Tanzania that lies 45 km south of Tanga, at the mouth of the Pangani River. It is the headquarters of Pangani District.
Although
archaeologists have found the remains of small 15th century settlements
on the bluffs just north of Pangani, the modern town came to prominence
in the nineteenth century, when, under nominal Zanzibari rule, it was a
major terminus of caravan routes to the deep interior. From the 1860s
onward townspeople established large plantations of sugar and coconut in
Mauya, along the banks of the river just west of town. The plantations
were worked by slave labor, and Pangani also became an important center
of the slave trade, shipping captives taken in the wars attendant on the
collapse of the Shambaa kingdom in the Usambara mountains to the
plantations of Pemba and Zanzibar

After
the Sultan of Zanzibar signed treaties with Great Britain outlawing the
ocean-going trade in slaves in 1873, Pangani became a center for
smuggling slaves across the narrow channel to Pemba, in evasion of
British warships.
In 1888, Pangani was
the center of an armed movement to resist German colonial conquest of
the entire mainland Tanzanian coast. The local leader of the resistance
was Abushiri ibn Salim al-Harthi, a Swahili-speaker born in Zanzibar who owned a small estate at the suburb that now bears his name.

Abushiri
was instrumental in coordinating resistance to German conquest along
much of the coast. The Germans hanged him at Pangani in December 1889.
Several historical sites in and around the town serve as reminders of the strong Arabic influence and the later German and British colonial era in Tanganyika. The district boma or headquarters is the most impressive building remaining from the period of Zanzibari rule.
The
Mauya plantations no longer grow sugar, but produce much coconut and
betel-nut. Pangani was once a secondary center of the sisal industry,
servicing sisal plantations to the north and south of town. Pangani also
has a fishing industry. In recent years beach resorts north and south
of the town have brought tourists. The town is a district headquarters.
Its hospital draws patients from many parts of the region. Funguni
Secondary School is in Pangani Town and Boza Secondary School is a short
distance north.
