Tanzania holds presidential elections amid protests

Police in Tanzania have dispersed groups of protesters in the capital Dar es Salaam, as the country holds elections. President Samia Suluhu Hassan, Tanzania’s first female leader, is seeking a second term in a vote where her two main challengers have been barred from contesting. The election marks the first time Suluhu, who assumed power in 2021 following President John Magufuli’s death, faces voters for a full presidential term.
