Africa-Press – Tanzania. <\/strong><\/span>KILIMANJARO: <\/b>PRIME Minister Kassim Majaliwa is expected to launch the 2024 Uhuru torch race in Kilimanjaro Region today. The Kilimanjaro Regional Commissioner, Nurdin Babu, said over the weekend that preparations for the launch have been completed.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis launch is historic due to the fact that this year\u2019s race coincides with the 60th anniversary of the Revolution of Zanzibar, 60 years since the race was officially launched for annual countrywide racing, as well as the 60 years of the Union of Tanganyika and Zanzibar,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He said 47 development projects worth 28.7bn\/- would be inaugurated in the region in the health, education, water infrastructure, roads, bridges and environment sectors.<\/p>\n

According to him, 13 projects foundation stones are to be laid, 16 will be launched, and 18 are expected to be inspected.<\/p>\n
