Dar es Salaam. President Samia Suluhu Hassan has reaffirmed the government's commitment to expanding Tanzania's Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) network to enhance intra-Africa trade.
During the inauguration of the electric train service between Dar es Salaam and Dodoma yesterday, the president outlined plans to connect the SGR to neighbouring Burundi and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC).
