Unguja. Constitutional review, electoral reform, judicial and legal reform, public service accountability, the establishment of a legal oversight body, sustaining the Government of National Unity (GNU) and inclusivity are among the issues agreed by CCM and ACT-Wazalendo in the political reconciliation accord signed in Zanzibar Thursday July 09, 2026.
