Tanzania's ban on foreigners operating small businesses sparks Kenyan backlash

Tanzania's ban on foreigners operating small businesses sparks backlash from Kenya over concerns of disrupting free movement and trade agreements within the East African Community (EAC). Tanzanian Trade Minister Selemani Jafo aims to safeguard local livelihoods by restricting foreign involvement in 15 sectors, leading to positive reception locally. The move could impact regional integration efforts, causing tensions between Tanzania and Kenya, as well as raising questions about protectionism and its impact on economic growth.
