 AJIRA ZA UHAKIKA NJE NJE, BONYEZA HAPA


The expansion and rehabilitation of Mwanza Airport to international level has increased volume of visitors to over 1,000 per day whereby Fastjet alone carries about 800 passengers per day and the remaining 200 passengers are served by other airlines.

“The Fastjet domination is attributed by several factors including the nature of their business. Fastjet is a low cost airline, so people with different economic levels have a chance to travel at a very low cost, hence a good number of people travel through the airline,” said Ms. Mandale, The Mwanza Airport Manager.

She further said that the increased volume of visitors to over 1,000 per day is an increase of 188 percent of passengers who opt now to travel by air compared to the past when passengers shunned this mode of transport, owing to poor services rendered at that time.

Ms. Mandale told the Mwanza Regional Consultative Committee (RCC) members that the rehabilitation and expansion has attracted many operators and passengers. “The airlines trips have increased from 46 to 56 per day after the completion of cargo apron and cargo shed, and runway”.

According to the Deputy Minister for Transport, Dr Charles Tizeba, the rehabilitation of the passengers lounge at the airport had been completed by 90 per cent. He said that the works would cost 105.9 billion and the government will contribute approximately 88 billion while the remaining 17 billion is a loan from BADEA and OFID.

The Mwanza Regional Commissioner, Engineer Evarist Ndikilo, insisted that it was important to complete the airport as scheduled so as to attract more foreign investors to invest in Mwanza and entire Lake Zone Region and make it a tourism centre for the East African countries.
