The announcement comes amid growing resistance and nationwide concern over violence that erupted after the recent elections.
Vice President Emmanuel Nchimbi revealed that President Suluhu intends to initiate a process of reconciliation aimed at fostering peace and unity across the nation.
Speaking in Dar es Salaam, Nchimbi stated that the government seeks to ensure even minority voices are heard, emphasizing a vision for a stable and inclusive Tanzania.
“It is President Samia Suluhu Hassan’s intention to ensure that we begin a process of reconciliation so that even the minority can be heard, building a nation of peace, unity, and stability that continues to serve as a model for Africa and the world,” Nchimbi said.
The call for dialogue comes as the government continues to clamp down on opposition leaders linked to post-election protests, including the recent arrest of CHADEMA Secretary General Amani Golugwa.
Despite ongoing tensions, the administration has assured citizens and visitors alike that the country remains safe and open.
President Suluhu’s move has been welcomed by many as a positive step toward easing political tensions and preventing further violence.
International observers have closely monitored Tanzania’s political climate, particularly following criticisms regarding press restrictions and shrinking democratic space.
President Suluhu’s announcement could mark a turning point in addressing these concerns while promoting national dialogue.
As Tanzania navigates this critical period, both citizens and political stakeholders will be watching closely to see whether the call for reconciliation translates into concrete action that strengthens democracy and restores trust across the political spectrum
