Tanzanian media practitioners are still operating on the goodwill of the government, nearly two years since President Samia Suluhu came to power promising sweeping reforms.
This week, the Tanzania Editors’ Forum (TEF), the local lobby for heads of news outlets in the country, said it was waiting for the government to follow through on its promises, including reviewing draconian laws.
