A power project worth 380.2m/- has been inaugurated at the heart of Ugalla River National Park to boost tourism, conservation, investment and to transform the lives of adjacent communities.
Tanzania National Parks (TANAPA) Conservation Commissioner Massana Mwishawa officially launched the project as a development catalyst to revitalise the tourism industry and conservation activities and supply power to neigbouring Unyumbu villagers.
“This project aims to enhance tourism, attract investors and to increase socio-economic development activities that will in turn change people’s lives,” Mwishawa said when officiating at the 100 KVA project’s inauguration.
Speaking at the same occasion, the Head of the TANAPA Western Zone, Assistant Commissioner of Conservation, Godwell Meng’ataki, said he was sure the project would open up potential investment opportunities to would-be local and foreign investors.
He said the project is a big step forward as it would strengthen the growth of tourism at the Ugalla River National Park, leaving doors open for an increase of holidaymakers.
On his part, the Chief Park Warden of the Ugalla River National Park, Assistant Commissioner of Conservation, Moronda Moronda, thanked his parent organisation for the power project to improve the lives of the workers in the area and energising their resolve to improving tourism.
Investment in power supply to national parks is Tanzania government’s goal to attract investors in the tourism industry and to increase the flow of both domestic and foreign tourists.
