AfDB Chief Lauds Progress on Major Infrastructure Projects in Tanzania's Capital
On Saturday, during an inspection tour with President Samia Suluhu Hassan, African Development Bank (AfDB) President Akinwumi Adesina visited Msalato International Airport in Dodoma, which is funded by the AfDB.
Adesina called the airport a "flagship investment" that will enhance Tanzania's air connectivity, trade, tourism, and regional integration. Spanning 4,500 hectares, it will be Tanzania's second largest, handling up to 1.5 million passengers annually.
The AfDB head also inspected the 112.3-kilometer Dodoma City Outer Ring Road, constructed by Chinese firms. He described both projects as "transformational developments" that will enhance domestic and international connectivity through reliable infrastructure.
President Hassan thanked the AfDB for its support, emphasizing the projects' potential to drive significant economic growth, trade, and tourism in Tanzania.
