A coronation not a contest - Tanzania's first female president faces little opposition

Tanzania's first female President, Samia Suluhu Hassan, faces little opposition in the upcoming election, with no heavyweight challengers cleared to compete. Despite initial praise for her reforms, President Samia is now criticized for reported abductions, killings, and repression of opposition voices. The lack of a strong opposition has led to concerns about the credibility of the election and the state of democracy in Tanzania, with some voters expressing disillusionment and fears about the country's future.
