Sumbawanga. CCM presidential candidate, President Samia Suluhu Hassan, has underscored the significance of Tanzania’s forthcoming National Water Grid, describing it as a game-changing initiative that will revolutionise access to clean and safe water across the country and uplift people’s livelihoods.
