Retired Chief Justice Othman Chande

Dar es Salaam. The chairman of the commission formed to investigate the unrest that occurred during and after October elections, retired Chief Justice Othman Chande, has urged Tanzanians not to judge the commission before it begins its work, assuring the public that the team will conduct a thorough and independent inquiry.

Justice Othman, who briefed journalists today, December 1, 2025 on the commission’s terms of reference and working methodology, said the public should allow the team to “sit for its exam” before passing judgement on its performance.
