We have also visited and viewed the Azam Complex, where we learnt a lot of things about how we can construct ours. We are aware of the challenges they are facing and how to address them. We really thank Azam for their cooperation,\u201d said Mrisho.<\/p>\n<p>The project funding is under the club leadership as the land use master plan has been completed by professionals forming the committee.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Construction of\u00a0the Young Africans leadership (Yanga) stadium is soon to commence.
