OLW 204 Law of Tort-Part I,AGGREY WAKILI

Negligent Misstatement; or 
Defamation. 
Injury to Reputation 
Can be covered by Torts of 
Defamation: Slander or Libel. 
 
 
Not Every Injury/Damage Has a Remedy in Tort
 
One of the most common mistakes committed by students is to suppose that for 
every injury or damage suffered there is a remedy in the Law of Torts. Law of 
Tort is as much about liability as it is about non-liability. One of the functions of
Lawyers is to determine when a remedy is available in Law of Tort and when the 


9
injured will have no remedy in the Law of Tort. 
 
Law of Tort is an important area of the Law of Tanzania regulating the various 
activities and interests of members of the society. The rules and principles 
making up the Law of Tort in Tanzania today have been developed through the 
decisions of the Courts in England with very little statutory interference. It has 
been observed that as a result of the case law heritage the student of the law of 
torts is faced with a bewildering array of cases and rules, and often finds 
difficulty in deciding what information is relevant to a problem.[DAVID GREEN, 
p. i] As a student you should tread through these cases with caution. Not every 
case falling into your hands will be relevant. You should employ the rules you 
have learnt to decipher which cases will be binding, which cases will be 
persuasive and which will be of no consequence. 
 
Law of Tort as A Reflector of a Changing Society
 
Arrangement of Topics in this Manual is historical. The arrangements will show 
you that Law of Torts has been developing and has in fact developed very slowly
