Tanz Gov cancels 9th Dec Independence Day celebrations. US Embassy issues warning.
‘ There are ongoing calls for nationwide anti-government demonstrations on December 9, but protest activity could begin as early as December 5. Recent unrest around Tanzania’s October 29 elections resulted in destruction of public infrastructure, violence against civilians, internet shutdowns, and major travel disruptions.
Travelers to Tanzania over the next several weeks should be prepared for potential disruptions, including the possibility of unrest, nation-wide curfews, an internet blackout, cancellation of ferries to Zanzibar, cancellation of international flights, and roadblocks enacted to enforce strict movement controls’
So I guess the singing ceremony (whatever happened to that) isn’t going to be on Independence Day.
