Azam FC welcome plan to reopen airport and resume Mainland league

The ‘Ice-cream makers’ have rejoiced at the move to reopen the airport as it will allow their foreign players to return for the league's resumption

Azam FC have welcomed the decision by President John Pombe Magufuli to open international air transport and also his immediate plans to resume the Mainland Premier League.

The Tanzania president confirmed on Sunday while addressing the country from a church service that the top-flight could return this week following a decrease in the number of coronavirus victims.

Magufuli said the current graph of Covid-19 was very encouraging and this might make him allow normal activities to resume including the opening of the airport, which was closed indefinitely, to normal business.
