Tanzania s Election Unrest A Nation on Edge
Hundreds of protesters have taken to the streets in Tanzania for a second straight day, following a disputed election that has plunged the nation into unrest. Amnesty International reports that at least two people have died as demonstrations spread across Dar es Salaam and other cities.
The government has responded by shutting down the internet, imposing a curfew, and deploying the military to restore order. Wednesday’s vote saw the ruling Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) — in power since independence in 1961 — move to extend its dominance.
