President Samia Suluhu Hassan, who is also the Chairperson of Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM), has donated TZS 100 million at a Gala Dinner held today in Dar es Salaam to support the party’s General Election campaigns and development initiatives.
Launching the fundraising drive, President Samia urged CCM members and stakeholders to contribute generously towards the party’s growth.
“I invite all CCM members and stakeholders to contribute wholeheartedly because the party’s development depends on your support,” she said.
CCM Secretary for Ideology and Publicity, Dr. John Nchimbi, said the party had initially asked the Chairperson to lead a fundraising drive for the construction of the CCM headquarters.
“She suggested that we instead conduct one that would support campaigns, other development projects, and the party’s strategic agenda,” he explained.
The Gala Dinner aims to raise TZS 100 billion to finance various campaign activities and implement the party’s development projects.
