Tanzania: Opposition party plans demonstration in Dar es Salaam Jan. 24
CHADEMA opposition party plans rally in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, from 09:00 Jan. 24. Increased security, localized disruptions likely.
The CHADEMA opposition party is planning to hold a march through Dar es Salaam from 09:00 Jan. 24. CHADEMA leaders are denouncing proposed electoral bills, the high cost of living, and ongoing delays to constitutional reforms. Supporters will gather at Buguruni Sheli and the Mbezi Mwisho bus stop before marching to the UN offices on Sam Nujoma Road via Shekilango Road.
A heightened security presence is likely along the march route, along with road traffic and public transport disruptions. Officials may attempt to disperse the demonstrators, which could prompt clashes.
Avoid the protest due to possible clashes. Plan for ground transport disruptions along the impacted route. Reconfirm status of public transport services and roads around the affected area. Heed the directives of the local authorities. Monitor local media for updates.
