Second phase President Ali Hassan Mwinyi, the third phase President Benjamin Mkapa and the fourth phase leader Jakaya Kiwete held spades as they joined President Magufuli in laying down the foundation stone.

At the event, the fifth Phase President Magufuli said the 8,473 acres or 34km square piece of the land is 16 times larger than the size of Saanane Island National Park in Mwanza Region.
