Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu Hassan has won a disputed election
with over 97% of the vote, according to official results announced on
Saturday. Her main opponents were prevented from running, leaving her

concerns about the election's fairness. Protests erupted across
Tanzania, leading to violence and a military response. The government
postponed the reopening of universities due to unrest. The United
Nations and foreign ministers from the U.K., Canada, and Norway have
expressed concern over the situation. Hassan's victory extends the
