On March 29, 2025, Prime Minister Kassim Majaliwa conducted an inspection of the venues that will be used for training and practice by teams participating in the 2025 CHAN tournament and the 2027 AFCON, in collaboration with Kenya and Uganda.

This directive came after receiving a report from Brigadier General Petro Ngata, the Executive Director of SUMA JKT, the contractors for the project.
Waziri Mkuu Kassim Majaliwa Machi 29, 2025 amefanya ukaguzi wa viwanja vitakavyotumiwa kufanyia mazoezi na timu zitakazo shiriki michuano ya CHAN Agosti 2025 na AFCON 2027 kwa Ushirikiano na nchi za Kenya na Uganda.
