Activists Demand Release of Tanzanian Human Rights Defenders
Kenyan and Ugandan activists have issued a strong warning to Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu Hassan, demanding the immediate release of two Tanzanian human rights activists, Boniface Mwangi and Agatha Atuhaire. The activists, speaking at a press conference, expressed deep concern over the arrests, calling them a violation of fundamental human rights. "We will not stand idly by while human rights are violated in Tanzania," stated one of the activists. The video shows the press conference, where the activists passionately appealed for the release of Mwangi and Atuhaire, highlighting their work in advocating for human rights within the country. The activists' actions underscore the ongoing struggle for human rights in East Africa and the broader implications for freedom of speech and activism in the region. The international attention brought to this case could potentially lead to positive changes in Tanzania's human rights record.
