“Abakhenkethi ngaphakathi Thanzaniya bona uGqr. Manongi njengengqwayingqwayi yolondolozo ephumeze ukukhusela, ekwandiseni nasekukhuthazeni omnye wezona zithixo zelizwe zixatyiswe kakhulu, utshilo iGosa eliyiNtloko yeSigqeba seTATO uSirili Akko.

Ukusukela oko waqeshwa kwisikhundla akuso ngoku, uGqr. Manongi ebeqhuba uGunyaziwe woLondolozo olulawulwa nguRhulumente ngobuchule, ubuchule, ukuzinikela nokunyaniseka, utshilo uAkko.

Indawo yolondolozo yaseNgorongoro iye yavotelwa njengeyona ndawo ibalaseleyo yabakhenkethi basekhaya, abakhenkethi bengingqi nabamazwe ngamazwe, okonyusa indawo yaseTanzania nomfanekiso wayo phezulu phakathi kwezona ndawo zokutyelela zibalaseleyo kwihlabathi.

UGqr. Manongi, isazinzulu esiqeqeshelwe ugcino lwezilwanyana zasendle kunye nolondolozo lwendalo naye uphumelele ekuphuhliseni iGeo-tourism ngaphakathi kwendawo yolondolozo. Olu hlobo lutsha lokhenketho lugcina kwaye luphucula iindawo ezikhethekileyo zejografi kunye nokusingqongileyo kwendalo, ilifa lemveli kunye nenkcubeko kukhenketho.

I-Ngorongoro-Lengai ayisiyiyo kuphela i-Geopark yokuqala eMpuma Afrika, kodwa ikwayindawo ehamba phambili yokhenketho lwe-geo e-Afrika emazantsi eSahara. Liyesibini eAfrika emva kweM'Goun eMorocco.

I-Ngorongoro-Lengai Geopark igubungela ummandla oziikhilomitha ezili-12,000 zeenduli ezinamatye, imiqolomba emide engaphantsi komhlaba, amachibi amachibi kunye neendawo zokufunyanwa kwe-hominid.

I-Ngorongoro-Lengai Geopark iquka amangcwaba aseDatoga amandulo; Ukugquma kweNdlela yaseCaldera, phakathi kwezinye iisayithi, iLali yase-Irkepus, iNdlu yaseJamani endala, iHippo Pool kunye nemithombo yaseSeneto, iVolcano yaseOldonyo-Lengai esebenzayo kunye neMpakai Crater.
