When Forbes included Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu on its list of 100 Most Powerful Women in the World this week, it underscored the notable rise of a woman whose political star continues to glitter only nine months after taking office.
Coming at position 94, President Samia shared the venerated stage with such notables as US Vice President Kamala Harris (position 2), European Central Bank president Christine Lagarde (3), Melinda French Gates (5) and MacKenzie Scott, who topped the list.
