#Tanzania suspends all political rallies, reversing @SuluhuSamia's initial reforms. This follows the rigged 2025 'election' when hundreds were shot dead with impunity in a post-poll crackdown. The country's already scant democratic space shrinks further.

Russia must get out of Ukraine with its war – we want no war. Ukraine has put forward proposals to our key partners, and Putin’s friends have also heard from us that a meeting is possible and that ending this war is possible. Russia must now take that step toward peace.
Things are getting worse in Tanzania.

The government has now banned political rallies after the main opposition party drew massive crowds across the country.
When a government responds to overwhelming public support for the opposition by banning political rallies instead of respecting the democratic process, it should alarm everyone.
Alafu wanawanyooshea vidole wananchi kuwa wanataka kuharibu amani na wao watalinda amani…..
Waharibifu wa amani wanadai wao ndio wanalinda amani…..

Today, no one on Earth can say that we are not fighting for Crimea or that we have forgotten about Crimea. Every day proves that Ukraine remembers every part of its land, every one of its people, and is truly fighting to ensure justice for our entire state and every integral part of it.
Russia brought its war to Ukraine, starting nowhere other than Crimea, and now, with our actions – medium-range sanctions against the Russian occupier, our long-range sanctions plan, and all other forms of pressure on the aggressor – we are doing everything to force Russia to end the war and restore justice. And it is Crimea that is at the center of this policy of ensuring justice. Russia turned Crimea into a launchpad for aggressive operations against other parts of our country and against other nations. For a very long time, Russia has tried to normalize its war – to make Ukraine, all of Europe, and the world accept that its aggression supposedly cannot be stopped and that justice supposedly cannot be restored.
Today, Ukraine is depriving Russia of this launchpad and drawing a line under its attempts to normalize war. And in doing so, we remember that justice for Ukraine also means justice for the Crimean Tatar people – a people forced to endure deportation and decades of oppression, a people who were able to return to their homeland, but whose home the Russians tried to steal again, a people who have preserved their vitality and remain an inseparable part of our society.
Today, as we honor the blue banner with the golden tamğa – this proud flag that unites the entire Crimean Tatar people – we affirm that Ukraine is fighting for itself and all its lands, defending justice for itself and all its people – for everyone who calls Ukraine and our Crimea their home. We must stop Russian aggression. We must bring freedom back to all those who are currently in Russian captivity. We must guarantee security and a reliable peace for the entirety of our state and all our people.

Glory to Ukraine!
Hang in there, my brother Tundu Lissu! Leo watesi wetu wamejitia tena kidole. Wamezuia mikutano kwa kukuhofia. Naomba Mungu akulinde na akutunze. Utatoka na utakuwa Rais wa Tanzania. Taifa letu litakuwa la kupigiwa mfano. Stay stronger, Idolo! Mungu ni mwema. Free Tundu Lissu!
TUFWILE TUMALIKE! HATARI!
So these are the very minds we are expected to trust? ( Hizi ndiyo busara tumaxo ambiwa tuziamini?)
We are told by their angel of death to remain calm and embrace "Maridhiano ya Kitaifa" ( Ambapo malaika wao wa vifo hutusihi tuwe watulivu)
while abandoning Ukweli, Haki na Uwajibikaji ? ( Tuache kudai Ukweli,Haki na Uwajibikaji)
That is not reconciliation it is a carefully choreographed march to the slaughterhouse. ( Hayo siyo maridhiano ni mkakati wa kutupeleka machinjioni)
Peace built on silence, impunity, and fear is never peace
it is merely the calm that precedes another tragedy.
BAK MWABUKUSI.
Mahakama Kuu ya Tanzania ilishafanya uamuzi katika kesi ya Christopher Mtikila vs Mwanasheria Mkuu wa Serikali (1995). Mahakama ilitamka haki ya kukusanyika na kutoa maoni ni haki ya msingi.
Mahakama ilifuta vifungu vilivyokuwa vinalazimisha raia kuomba kibali kwa DCs au OCDs kufanya mikutano, ikisema kulazimisha raia kuomba kibali kutumia haki ya kikatiba ni kinyume cha Katiba.
Mahakama ilibainisha kuwa kuweka utaratibu unaofanya haki hii itegemee hisia au utashi wa kisiasa wa viongozi wa serikali au jeshi la polisi ni kinyume cha Katiba. Mahakama ikatoa amri.
Tangu wakati huo, utaratibu ukawa ni wa kutoa taarifa ili polisi waweze kutoa ulinzi, na sio kuomba idhini ya kisiasa. Haya ni mambo ambayo huyu KATAMBI anatakiwa kuyafahamu vizuri tu.
KATAMBI kasoma sheria, ni kweli kwamba haya mambo hajui? Anyways, tunaelewa kwamba ni hofu tu kutoka mbogamboga. Ametumwa tu kusema lakini hofu inatoka kwa wakubwa zake. HOFU. WOGA.
For months, the @USCongress_ and @Europarl_EN warned Tanzania to respect rule of law, democracy, and fundamental freedoms. Instead, the samia suluhu hassan regime is escalating repression.
Today, “Minister” for Home Affairs Patrobas Katambi illegally ordered police to suspend permits for all public political rallies nationwide under the pretext of “security.” This silences opposition and criminalizes peaceful assembly.
Warnings are no longer enough. The @SenateForeign just advanced the bipartisan Tanzania sanctions bill. Now is the time for real consequences—targeted sanctions on officials dismantling democracy and violating rights.
Democracy dies when peaceful political participation is banned. US Congress & European Parliament: Act now. Pass the bill. Coordinate sanctions. Stand with the people of Tanzania.

Waziri wa Mazingira wa Sweden, Romina Pourmokhtari ameandika historia baada ya kuhudhuria mkutano wa Mawaziri wa Umoja wa Ulaya (EU) uliofanyika mjini Luxembourg akiwa amembeba Mtoto wake wa miezi mitatu, Adam.
Kwa mujibu wa Maafisa wa EU, hii ni mara ya kwanza Mtoto kuhudhuria mkutano wa Mawaziri wa umoja huo. Romina amesema aliamua kufanya hivyo ili kuonyesha kuwa Wazazi, hususan Wanawake hawapaswi kulazimika kuchagua kati ya majukumu ya kazi na familia. Amesisitiza kuwa mfumo wa likizo ya uzazi Nchini Sweden pamoja na ushirikiano kutoka kwa mwenza wake umemwezesha kurejea kazini bila kuathiri malezi ya mtoto.
Waziri huyo mwenye umri wa miaka 30, ambaye aliingia katika historia ya Sweden mwaka 2022 kwa kuwa mmoja wa mawaziri vijana zaidi kuwahi kuteuliwa serikalini, hivi karibuni alirejea kazini baada ya likizo ya uzazi, huku mume wake akiendelea na likizo ya malezi ya mtoto wao.
Tukio hilo limeibua mjadala kuhusu umuhimu wa sera rafiki kwa wazazi na usawa kati ya kazi na maisha ya familia, huku baadhi ya viongozi wa Ulaya wakilipongeza kama mfano mzuri wa kuhimiza mazingira jumuishi kwa Wazazi wanaofanya kazi.

Sasa ni wazi hawataki kumwachia LISSU maana moto wake utakuwa mkubwa kuliko huu wa HECHE.
Walikiweka chama kabatini na kudai kimekufa. Baada ya miezi miwili ya kampeni free Lissu na katiba wameamua kukimbilia msaada wa polisi.
CCM kwisha, kwisha, kwisha kabisa.
‼️HABARI MBAYA‼️
Huyu anaitwa Victor Josep Kanhwa ni Mwenyekiti wa CHADEMA Kata ya Mibulani Temeke, alichukuliwa na watu waliovaa kiraia, ambao hawakujitambulisha ni akina nan tangu June 20, 2026.
Ndugu zake walizunguka baadhi ya vituo vya Polisi bila mafanikiwa, kuna raia mwema alimuon kituo cha Polis Central Dar es salaam ndo akatoa taarifa Kwa familia yake.
Leo Familia yake imeenda Central kuulizia, Polisi ndo wakubali kwamba kweli wanae, wanaulizwa kosa lake ni nini hawataki kusema.
Imagine unamkamata mtu unakaa nae siku sita bila kumpeleka Mahakamani wala kumruhu aijulishe familia yake kwamba yupo Polisi, means kama msamaria mwema asingesema wangeendelelea kukaa nae hawa watu ni Wakatili sana.🚮
