Tanzania’s President Samia Suluhu Hassan Re-elected with over 97% of the vote
Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu Hassan has secured a landslide victory in the country’s latest presidential election, winning 97.66% of the votes, according to the National Electoral Commission. The results were announced on Saturday on state television after several days of electoral unrest.
The vote, marked by tension and sporadic violence, further consolidates the dominance of the ruling Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) party, which has governed Tanzania since independence.
Samia Suluhu Hassan, the first female president in the nation’s history, took office in 2021 following the death of John Magufuli. Her re-election extends her mandate and reaffirms her leadership amid both domestic challenges and regional expectations.
Observers have reported concerns about political freedoms and limited competition during the campaign, while the government hailed the result as a sign of national unity and stability.
