Tanzania: 2025 election violence still traumatises, one year on
Tanzania is marking the first anniversary of a bloody election that left many traumatised. The October 29, 2025 election, in which President Samia Suluhu Hassan won with 98 percent of the vote after most of the opposition was excluded, triggered days of protests that security forces brutally suppressed. Many government critics say they still fear abduction, arbitrary arrest and politically motivated prosecutions.
