NAIROBI, Kenya – Delegates at the Africa Hotel Investment Forum (AHIF) in Nairobi today declared poaching to be the greatest threat to Africa’s tourism industry and branded poachers as Africa’s Public Enemy No.1.
Lazaro Nyalandu, Deputy Minister for Natural Resources & Tourism, Tanzania said in an address to the whole conference: “Poaching is a global problem needing a global solution. It is estimated that Tanzania has an elephant population of 100,000 today but this is cut by 30 a day by poachers. They are so sophisticated that we need a military response. If their activities are not stamped out, we will have lost all our elephants in 10-15 years. We want to see our African neighbours taking a stand with us, pressurising the countries where the poachers’ clients live
