Our sister show, the Resistance Bureau, has a great and important discussion coming up on Thursday 12 September.

Despite perceptions of #Tanzania being on a pathway to reform, there is a serious prospect of a major crackdown as the elections near. Many opposition figures are in jail.

We’ll look at the evidence and break it down, with great guests including:

  1. Tundu Lissu, opposition leader
  2. Fatma Karume, lawyer and human rights advocate
  3. Aikande C. Kwayu, researcher and commentator on Tanzanian politics
  4. Jebra Kambole, lawyer and Advocate of the High Court of Tanzania
… and of course the usual gang of Mantate Mlotshwa, Jeff Smith and our very own Nic Cheeseman.
