83% Informative

President Samia Suluhu Hassan championed the “ Four Rs” of reconciliation, resilience, reforms, and rebuilding.

She reversed a number of retrograde and repressive policies implemented by her predecessor, John Magufuli .

She skillfully consolidated power within her party, Chama Cha Mapinduzi , or CCM , which has held the presidency in Tanzania since 1961 .

However, Samia ’s reforms have quickly stalled as the 2025 general elections draw nearer.

In its latest Freedom in the World report , Freedom House changed the country’s rating to “Not Free” from “ Partly Free’ In Kenya , incidences of abductions and forced disappearances were reported following youth-led protests.

These patterns suggest a broader regional shift towards repression and away from democracy, says Nicodemus Minde .
