Her Excellency Samia Suluhu Hasan
President
United Republic of Tanzania
His Excellency Kasim Majaliwa
Prime Minister
United Republic of Tanzania
Otterlo Business Corporation (OBC)
We, the undersigned organizations/networks and individuals collectively express our serious concern on the planned eviction of an estimated 70,000 Maasai indigenous pastoralists and their more than 200,000 livestock in Loliondo, Tanzania. According to the information we received from affected communities, a meeting with Maasai leaders called by the Regional Commissioner for Arusha, John Mongella was held last January 11, where he informed them of the government’s plan to evict any time this year the villagers in the 1,500 km2 area of customary lands of the Maasai indigenous pastoralists located in Loliondo Division of Ngorongoro District, Arusha Region, east of the Serengeti National Park. The main reason for this persistent plan to evict the Maasai villagers is to lease their land to Otterlo Business Corporation to be made as wildlife hunting area for the Dubai royal families who own this company.
This pending action of the Government of Tanzania is contrary to the Village Land Act of 1999, as well as to the international human rights obligations and commitments of the Government of Tanzania. The eight villages have in fact a legal security of tenure to their land which they have collectively managed and conserved well as their customary lands for decades as evidenced by its rich biodiversity.
The unjust and cruel plan to evict 70,000 Maasai pastoralists and make them homeless and to displace their over 200,000 livestock is against the respect for their rights, dignity and cultural identity and livelihoods. It will certainly result in conflicts, violence, poverty and marginalization just to satisfy the whims of the rich and powerful families who have no regard to the stewards of wildlife and rich biodiversity.
We express our strong solidarity with the affected Maasai villagers and we urge the Government of Tanzania and Otterlo Business Corporation to respect and protect the rights, well-being and dignity of the Maasai pastoralists who are the stewards of the 1,500 km biodiversity-rich area.
In particular, we call upon the Government of Tanzania to:
• Immediately desist from evicting the Maasai indigenous pastoralists and instead fully recognize and protect their right to their customary lands and resources, their livelihoods and distinct lifestyles.
• Ensure that the land tenure security of the eight villages in Loliondo is protected as per their status as legally-registered villages, and to guarantee that there will be no further attempts of land grabbing and forced evictions.
• Guarantee the respect for and protection of the right to freedom of expression and assembly; and ensure that there will be no reprisals against human rights defenders, civil society organizations and journalists who speak up on the Loliondo eviction issue.
We urge the Otterlo Business Corporation to:
• Abandon plans to lease the land of the Maasai villagers and ensure the respect for the rights of the Maasai indigenous pastoralists to their lands and resources and to free, prior and informed consent.
• Adopt a corporate policy for environment protection and respect for human rights, including the rights of indigenous peoples as affirmed by the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.
