\u201cThe first phase of our project started on July 16, 2021and expectations that we implement in it four months\u2019 time, however, we are still working on some things,\u201d said Eng. Lt. Col Hagu.<\/p>\n

He added that in accordance with the procedures aimed at benefiting the Geita city community, they consulted with GGML on various issues to bring the modern staduium built to the satisfaction of the government and residents.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe agreed to bring in about 50 employees from the company implementing this project and we took the remaining half of the staff from the Geita Township community.<\/p>\n

On his part, GGML Vice President for Sustainability, Simon Shayo said the company will continue working hand in hand with the Geita Town Council and Geita Council in all projects implemented through its Corporate Social Responsibility Fund (CSR) funds.<\/p>\n

Elaborating, he said GGML has signed an agreement with the two Councils that annually it will provide them with 9.2bn\/- for their social services. \u201cOur CSR work with members from these councils \u2026so in the construction of this stadium for example, the council has sought a contractor and GGML has provided funding to implement the project,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

In its implementation, Geita City Council set aside 10.4 hectares of land and expected to house a football pitch, athletic trails, commercial areas, and car parks under its one building.<\/p>\n

When completed, the stadium will be able to accommodate 12,000 spectators, all seated.<\/p>\n

In the first phase of construction of the stadium, it will also include players changing and referees\u2019 rooms, first aid room, stadium manager\u2019s office and conference room.<\/p>\n
