Tanzania’s Political Crisis: Suluhu Must Act Now | PLO Lumumba

"What happened in Tanzania ought not to have happened." – PLO Lumumba In this urgent episode, Prof. PLO Lumumba addresses the political tensions in Tanzania following the controversial 2025 elections. He calls on President Samia Suluhu Hassan to initiate national dialogue, re‑examine the Tanzanian constitution, engage the opposition rather than silence them, and acknowledge the deaths and unrest that followed the vote. Lumumba traces Tanzania’s democratic legacy, critiques the rising political intolerance, and reminds us that Africa’s youth are watching — and thinking. “If leaders don’t think for the youth, the youth will think for themselves.” 00:00 – The Tanzania We Want: Healing Through Dialogue 01:00 – Tanzania’s Stable History & Democratic Traditions 02:30 – Post‑2025 Election Crisis: What Went Wrong 04:00 – Opposition Suppression & Treason Charges 06:00 – Why Suluhu Must Rethink Her Strategy 08:30 – Kenya’s Role as a Mediator 10:00 – The Youth Are Thinking for Themselves 12:00 – The Danger of Western NGOs & Trojan Horses 14:00 – Rethinking Governance Across Africa 17:00 – A Message for Samia Suluhu: Talk Before It’s Too Late
