THE Dodoma region has received 6.7bn/- for the construction of 339 classrooms in 127 schools located in eight councils.
Dodoma Regional Commissioner (RC) Rosemary Senyamule said this over the weekend, when she made a visit to inspect the ongoing construction of classrooms in various secondary schools in Dodoma City, as a preparation to accommodate the new form one students for the year 2023.
Among the schools that the RC Senyamule visited are Viwandani Secondary School and Zuzu Secondary School, where the constructions are still underway, and their classes have reached the stage of roofing and others in the finishing stage.
In the course, Ms Senyamule called the project supervisors to ensure that all classrooms are completed on time. “Make sure that the project is completed on time by observing quality and standard. We have the responsibility to manage the funds disbursed by the government,” she said.
Giving a report about the construction progress, Zuzu School Headmaster, Mr Hezron Lupondo, said the school received 20m/- for the construction of classrooms.
“The project started on October 10 and we expect by November 20th this year, the project will be completed,” he said. At the same time, the Dodoma City Council has thanked President Samia Suluhu Hassan for providing 580m/- for the construction of 29 secondary school classrooms in the city.
The vote of thanks was given by the City Director Mr Joseph Mafuru, when he visited the Miyuji Secondary School in the city where construction is underway.
