The Home Affairs Minister visited a key border crossing and pushed for tighter security. George Simbachawene toured the Mutukula post between Tanzania and Uganda. He told government workers to prioritize national safety above all. Revenue collection comes next, he said, because it funds national development. The border brings in about nine billion shillings monthly. Over forty four thousand visitors entered through Mutukula in the past eleven months. Simbachawene made the remarks alongside the Kagera regional security committee. He stated that proper management of these funds supports health, roads, schools, and farming projects.

Regional Commissioner Fatma Mwassa briefed the minister on local security issues beforehand. Her report noted many illegal crossing points in the area. These routes are used by undocumented migrants and could let in people with bad intentions. The immigration officer at Mutukula, Sarah Ngonyani, said her team continues normal operations. They work on border security and catch illegal entrants coming through unofficial village paths.
