President Samia Hassan has set Tanzania on a change of course – time will tell if the pattern holds and addresses the country’s challenges.
President Samia Hassan may have been an ‘accidental president’ but Tanzania’s leader has set out to showcase her own political strategy.
Hassan is winning party loyalists, and has launched a diplomatic charm offensive ahead of 2025 polls.
The emerging partisan politics and the polarisation it creates is a new threat for Tanzania.
Despite the relative political stability over the years, Tanzania needs a new constitution to address contemporary challenges and strengthen institutions.
Hassan may prove the right sort of politician to usher in a new era of bipartisan politics, less populist and authoritarian and more collegial.
Hassan, like Magufuli before her, has taken office without her own political base and will also have to contend with revived factional manoeuvring.
She has been described as compassionate, rational and calm – attributes that are a far departure from her former boss.
