Karagwe — KARAGWE District Commissioner Col Fabian Massawe is determined to give the sports sector new impetus, saying the district has the potential to produce great athletes and footballers if deliberate efforts are made to nurture talents.
Col Massawe, whose reign as the headmaster of Jitegemee Secondary School in Dar es Salaam saw the school dominate in sports, has begun by appointing a task force to mobilise resources and set goals for sports development.
“I have been preoccupied by other pressing issues, but now I am turning my focus on sports. Karagwe has untapped potentials, we have to involve all the stakeholders in this campaign to develop the sports sector,” he said.
Col Massawe will chair the taskforce, while his secretary general will be the district executive director Ernest Mwinga Kahabi. Other members of the task force include the district administrative secretary, the sports and cultural officer, councillors and businessmen.
The district received a morale boost few weeks ago, when Rumanyika FC won the TFF-sanctioned league to become the regional champions. Rumanyika will now represent Kagera region in the Zonal League, which will be played in Mwanza.
