Dodoma/Dar es Salaam. As the first session of Tanzania’s National Assembly convenes tomorrow in Dodoma, where, among other matters, the new Prime Minister will be proposed and endorsed, Tanzanians have voiced their expectations for the country’s next top executive.
Those who spoke to The Citizen outlined the qualities they want in their next leader following confirmation that outgoing Prime Minister Kassim Majaliwa, who has served in the post for ten years (2015–2025), did not contest a parliamentary seat and is therefore ineligible for the position.
