The 14 Megawatts cross-border dam is located on the Kagera River, the largest tributary of Lake Victoria, which serves as the natural border between Tanzania and Uganda.

Speaking at the ceremony shortly after commissioning yesterday, President Museveni welcomed Her Excellency Samia Suluhu Hassan to the Western part of Uganda to commission a project on River Kagera that will benefit the two sister countries.
