Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu Hassan is scheduled to be inaugurated on Monday, even as the country remains under an internet shutdown following violent post-election protests.The opposition claims that hundreds of people were killed by security forces during demonstrations challenging the outcome of the recent elections, which they allege were marred by irregularities and intimidation.
Despite mounting criticism from international observers and human rights groups, the government has yet to release an official death toll or comment on the ongoing internet restrictions.President Hassan’s swearing-in is expected to take place under tight security in Dodoma, with limited media coverage due to the nationwide internet blackout.
