🇹🇿 TANZANIA’S ELECTION LOOKS MORE LIKE A MASSACRE Samia Suluhu Hassan just won re-election with 98% of the vote - because apparently, democracy in Tanzania means beating 16 fringe parties after jailing or banning anyone who could actually compete. While the ruling CCM pops champagne, the streets are soaked - opposition groups say over 700 people have been killed during days of unrest, and the government’s response? A nationwide internet blackout and a military crackdown. One opposition leader is behind bars on treason charges. Another was disqualified on a “technicality.” But don’t worry - officials insist it was all “free and fair.” Voter turnout was supposedly 87%. Which is impressive, considering the army had roadblocks, the internet was off, and half the country was dodging bullets. This wasn’t an election. It was a coronation - enforced at gunpoint.
