The Right Honourable Tano Mwera, is the representative of the President of the United Republic of Tanzania in Busega District, holding the post of District Commissioner. The Mayega Water Group had the honour of Mrs Mwera chairing its latest meeting. The guest list included representatives from Busega Scotland, Busega District Council and Mayega village. The Mayega village chairman and district councillor both attended.
The meeting reviewed the successful completion of Phase 2 of the Mayega Water Project – bringing five new standpipes to the village and the construction of a kitchen at the Children’s Centre. Attention then turned to planning Phase 3, and finalising a consultation carried out by colleagues Paul Mashimba and Julieth Godwin.
All being well, the Rotary Clubs of Elgin and Igoma (a town on the outskirts of Mwanza) will take forward an application for a Rotary Global Grant, to construct toilets at Mayega Primary School and toilets in Mayega village. Deciding on a design suitable toilet for use in the village has taken much time and discussion. The District Council will now build a prototype to test out its suitability.
Many thanks to the DC for successfully chairing the meeting and bringing forth some important decisions.
