The first event was held on Tuesday in Nyambono village to support the construction of Nyabakangara Secondary School in Nyambono Ward.

According to a statement from the MP’s office, the fundraising event saw contributions from the residents of Nyambono village, CCM and its affiliate leaders, as well as development partners.

The event raised 448,000/- along with 204 bags of cement and other building materials.
