President Samia Suluhu Hassan's government in Tanzania implemented widespread restrictions, including a ban on protests and deployment of security forces, yesterday on the country's independence day, following a disputed election where she secured 98 percent of the vote.This crackdown, which critics attribute to the suppression of opposition and has allegedly resulted in hundreds, potentially thousands, of deaths, has led to international condemnation and reviews of aid.Canada is now comprehensively reviewing its 3.4 billion $ in assistance, while the United States, Sweden, and the EU have also expressed deep concerns, with some calling for an independent investigation into reported extrajudicial killings and disappearances.
