Nimesikitishwa sana na msiba huu mkubwa. Nitamkumbuka daima Mhe Mafuru kuwa ni mtu msukumo aliyeleta weledi, ujasiri na busara katika kila mjadala. Apumzike kwa amani.

UK in TZ is saddened by the passing of Lawrence Mafuru, Executive Secretary of the Planning Commission. He was an inspirational leader, shaping Tanzania's development path, including Vision 2050. Our thoughts are with his family, colleagues, and the GoT. May he rest in peace.

Anyone who knows the UK and its longstanding reputation for openness and tolerance, will be upset at the scenes of disorder caused by a tiny minority in a small number of places. As UK PM @Keir_Starmer has made clear, those responsible will face the full force of the law.

This is not protest, it is pure violence. We will have a standing army of public duty officers. We will ramp up criminal justice. We will apply criminal law online as well as offline. We will not tolerate attacks on mosques or on Muslim communities.

The UK welcomes the ceasefire agreement between DRC - Rwanda, and thanks Angola for continued mediation efforts. This will provide needed relief to civilians. We call for all parties to honour commitments made and hope this marks a steps towards sustainable peaceful dialogue.

The exact spot where Julius Nyerere was born in 1922. Nashukuru sana Mheshimiwa Madaraka. Nashukuru sana Mwalimu.

Mwalimu was a voracious reader: some 8,000 of his books, spanning a vast range of interests, are kept here at the library in Nyerere’s residence. A privilege to peruse the shelves and discuss Nyerere’s political and social legacy with Madaraka

My thanks to Madaraka Nyerere for a wonderful tour of the compound where his father was born, raised and kept a residence. This is the spot where Mwalimu liked to play Bao, a board game he’s said to have excelled at as a youngster

Paying my respects at the grave of ‘Mwalimu’ Julius Nyerere, the nation’s first president and a political giant of post-independence era Africa. A truly special moment in a visit to Nyerere’s hometown of Butiama in the remote Mara region - my last upcountry tour as 🇬🇧Balozi

Russia's strike on the Okhmatdyt Children’s Hospital in Kyiv is an appalling attack on Ukrainian civilians. My thoughts are with all the victims and their loved ones. The UK's support to Ukraine is iron-clad. We must hold those responsible for Putin's illegal war to account.
