Tanzania's government will allow the Ufufuo na Uzima Church to resume operations under a six-month probationary period with specific conditions attached. Prime Minister Mwigulu Nchemba issued the directive to Home Affairs Minister George Simbachawene, explaining that President Samia Suluhu Hassan has extended pardons to religious organizations facing minor infractions, following her earlier clemency for youth demonstrators.

The church, led by Bishop Josephat Gwajima, lost its registration earlier this year after authorities determined it violated regulations by conducting political activities from the pulpit. Nchemba emphasized that misconduct by individual institutions should not result in blanket closures, noting that worship represents a personal relationship between believers and their deity that should not be disrupted by leadership failures.

The Home Affairs Ministry will establish new operational guidelines and boundaries for religious institutions moving forward.
