Former Botswana President Ian Khama has expressed strong condemnation of the recent presidential election in Tanzania, challenging its legitimacy amid reports of violence surrounding the vote. Khama stated, “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.”
In his critique, Khama also addressed a broader pattern among African leaders who maintain power through questionable means. He observed, “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 further stressed the importance of democratic openness, 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.”
