Africa-Press<\/a> – Tanzania<\/a>. <\/strong><\/span>GEITA Gold Mining Ltd (GGML) has released more than 2bn\/- to construct a stadium in its plough back to the villagers surrounding it in Geita Region.<\/p>\n

Making the revelation in Geita yesterday, the company’s Project Manager, Moses Rusasa said it will cater for sports activities, which include football and athletics among others.<\/p>\n

He further said GGML will supervise the work and make sure it is completes on time, adding: \u201cUnlike what is delaying several projects starting with immediate effect being payment as compensation to the residents, whose pieces of land has been annexed, this one is different because already a plot has been earmarked and the regional leadership is doing its best to quicken the process of paperwork.\u201d<\/p>\n

Commenting on the project, Geita Town Council Chairman, Constantine Moranda said GGML has been the government\u2019s partner in implementing various community projects, a culture that develops the region.<\/p>\n

Elaborating on the project, Geita Town Council Acting Executive Director, Engineer Felix Nlalio said they have allocated about 10.4 hectares (104,570 sqm) piece of land for the construction of a state-of-the-art stadium that will also mark places for other related commercial activities including car park.<\/p>\n

Nlalio further said it will be built by EFQ Company Ltd and MugooConstruction Company based in Mwanza Region, noting: \u201cThis projectis being funded by GGML through its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) community accountability budget\u2026 once completed, it will accommodate roughly 12,000 spectators seated at more than 2bn\/-.\u201d<\/p>\n

Reached for a comment, Geita District Commissioner Willisoni Shimo called upon the project\u2019s managers to implement it in accordance to the standards and conditions set the Tanzania Football Federation (TFF).<\/p>\n

A representative from the EFQ Company Limited and Mugoo Construction Company Limited JV, Juma Nywataya said the company will complete the work within four months.<\/p>\n

In a related development, the General Secretary of the GEREFA Football Association, Pius Kimisha said the stadium construction will motive the youth in the region to work hard towards excelling in sports.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
