Former Botswana President Ian Khama has expressed strong disapproval of Tanzania’s recent election results, questioning their credibility and raising concerns about electoral violence. He remarked, “The recent election in Tanzania and from what transpired, the killings around the election… I for once do not recognise the person who was inaugurated as the President of Tanzania. She is an illegitimate president.”
Khama criticised African leaders who resort to force to cling to power, saying, “It is totally unacceptable when an African leader, in order to stay in power, will resort to killing his or her own people. In order to stay in power, they will rig an election, as if they are God’s gift to their country.”
He emphasised the importance of democratic competition in leadership, adding, “When you have a country with millions of people, for any leader to think they are the only ones who can be president is pathetic.”
