💨 Abstract

In Tanzania, a church owned by MP Josephat Gwajima was deregistered by authorities after he criticized the government for human rights violations. Hundreds of congregants protested the closure. Gwajima had mentioned detentions and enforced disappearances as the country prepares for October elections. Opposition leaders and activists have faced arrests and deportations, while President Samia Suluhu Hassan's administration has been accused of cracking down on critics. Rights groups have called for investigations into these human rights abuse allegations.
