"Udongo ni rasilimali muhimu inayobeba maisha yetu ya kila siku. Bila udongo wenye afya hatuwezi kuwa na usalama wa chakula, mazingira bora wala maendeleo endelevu. Ni wajibu wa kila Mtanzania kushiriki katika juhudi za kulinda mazingira na kutumia ardhi kwa njia zinazohifadhi uhai wake kwa manufaa ya kizazi cha sasa na kijacho," alisema Mhe. Masauni.

"Save Soil Walkathon si matembezi pekee, bali ni harakati ya kuhamasisha mabadiliko ya tabia na kuwajengea wananchi uelewa wa umuhimu wa kulinda udongo. Tunataka kuona jamii, taasisi na sekta binafsi zikichukua hatua za pamoja katika kuhifadhi mazingira kwa mustakabali wa taifa letu," alisema Lion Ramadevi.

Naye Esther Msuya, Meneja wa Afya, Usalama, Ulinzi na Mazingira (HSSE) wa GSG Energies, alisema kampuni hiyo itaendelea kuunga mkono mipango na kampeni zinazolenga uhifadhi wa mazingira na maendeleo endelevu nchini.

"Kulinda mazingira ni jukumu la kila mmoja wetu. GSG Energies tunaamini kuwa maendeleo ya kweli lazima yaende sambamba na uhifadhi wa mazingira."

"Ushiriki wetu katika Save Soil Walkathon unaonesha dhamira yetu ya kusaidia juhudi za kuongeza uelewa wa jamii na kulinda rasilimali za asili kwa manufaa ya vizazi vijavyo."
