President Samia Suluhu Hassan told elders in Dar es Salaam that Tanzania would defend itself hard after election violence broke out, and she wants older folks to mentor young people before they get manipulated into chaos. She said the post-election mess was organized with serious funding and coordination, but many kids who participated had zero clue what they were actually doing or why.
The president blamed some political parties for pushing internal beef onto the streets using youth as pawns, and she called out religious leaders who act like they run the country when they definitely do not. She promised to set up a reconciliation commission within 100 days to work on constitutional reforms that people have been demanding, but she made it clear that future unrest would get shut down fast since the government is ready for whatever comes next.
