Mobile telephone operator Zain Tanzania will tomorrow announce names of 26 schools across the country that will receive books under its 'Build Our Nation' programme.

Its Lake Zone manager Ali Maswaya said the schools would be picked in a grand draw to be conducted in Mwanza.

"The project is divided into quarters whereby in each quarter one school per region is selected via a random computer draw to receive Sh1 million worth of books, bringing the total to Sh26 million," he said in a statement released yesterday.

This year Zain will spend more than Sh500 million on the programme that will benefit over 520 secondary schools.
