Tanzania’s President Samia Suluhu Hassan was sworn in for a second term yesterday in a ceremony closed to the public amid heavy security in Dodoma. The inauguration, held at a military parade ground instead of a public stadium, followed an election marred by violence and condemned by the opposition as fraudulent. Samia claimed 98% of the vote after major rivals were jailed or barred. Observers from SADC said voters in many areas: “could not express their democratic will,” while reports of killings and internet blackouts deepened concerns over Tanzania’s political and human rights climate.
