The Dar es Salaam Special Zone
Police Force, in collaboration with local citizens, continues to ensure the
city remains secure, fostering an environment where economic, political, and
social activities thrive without interruption.
The police remain vigilant,
working tirelessly to prevent criminal activities and maintain order across the
bustling metropolis.
As soccer fever grips Dar es
Salaam, the focus has shifted to the Benjamin Mkapa Stadium, where two
high-stakes matches are scheduled on January 18 and 19, 2025.
On Saturday, Yanga of Tanzania
will face off against Algeria’s MC Alger, while Sunday’s clash pits Tanzania’s
Simba against Algeria’s CS Constantine. Both matches, kicking off at 4:00 p.m.,
promise excitement and fierce competition.
In anticipation of the games, the
Dar es Salaam Special Zone Police Force has ramped up security measures to
ensure a smooth and safe experience for all attendees.
Every detail has been
meticulously planned to maintain safety inside and outside the stadium before,
during, and after the matches.
Roads leading to the stadium will
be tightly monitored, with restricted access for vehicles lacking special
permits. Spectators are advised that weapons of any kind will not be permitted
within the stadium, except for authorized personnel tasked with maintaining
security.
Police officials have urged fans
to embrace the spirit of soccer with unity and calmness, steering clear of any
actions that might disrupt the harmony of the matches.
This call for peace comes with a
wish for success to both Yanga and Simba, as they represent Tanzania on the
international stage.
Meanwhile, the Dar es Salaam
Special Zone Police Force has turned its attention to a separate issue that has
drawn significant public concern.
Residents of Yombo Dovya in Temeke have
reported cases of skin irritation allegedly linked to the use of contaminated
oil.
Authorities, in collaboration
with other legal entities, have launched an investigation into these claims.
Early findings are being reviewed, and further action will be taken as the
probe progresses.
With security, vigilance, and
public trust at the forefront, the Dar es Salaam Police continue their mission
to uphold safety and order across the city.
