Samia warns Tanzania’s battered image may hurt foreign funding
President Samia Suluhu Hassan addresses guests during the swearing-in ceremony of ministers and deputy ministers at the Chamwino State House in Dodoma on November 18, 2025.
Tanzania’s ability to secure funding from international institutions may face challenges due to its tarnished global reputation, President Samia Suluhu Hassan said on Tuesday, while swearing in ministers after last month’s disputed election.
Samia, 65, who was declared the landslide winner of the October election that was marred by clashes with security forces over the exclusion of her main challengers, did not specify what dented Tanzania’s image.
