Firstpost Tanzania Election Violence Sparks Outrage as Church, Aid Groups Speak Out | Firstpost Africa | N18G

Tanzania is reeling from deadly post-election violence that has left hundreds, possibly thousands, dead. At a prayer service in Dar es Salaam, Archbishop Jude Thaddaeus Ruwa’ichi condemned the killings, calling them a “disgrace before God” and warning that the punishment for protest cannot be death. President Samia Suluhu Hassan’s landslide 98% victory has been dismissed by the opposition as a “sham,” amid reports of ballot tampering and intimidation. Rights groups accuse security forces of firing on peaceful demonstrators, while internet blackouts have obscured the true scale of the crackdown. The African Union says the polls failed democratic standards. With opposition leaders facing treason charges and the Church demanding justice, Tanzania now stands at a critical crossroads between accountability and repression.
