CCM Secretary General Dr Emmanuel Nchimbi has assured the international community that democracy and human rights will improve in Tanzania under President Samia Suluhu Hassan's leadership.

Dr Nchimbi made the statement during separate meetings yesterday with Ambassador of Türkiye to Tanzania Dr Mehmet Güllüoğlu, Moroccan Ambassador Zacharia El Goumir and Dan Barnes, Chief Executive Officer for Policy and Evaluation at the United States’ Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC).

During the meeting which was held in Dar es Salaam Dr Nchimbi highlighted the significant progress made in strengthening democracy, good governance, the economy and civil rights.

The discussions aimed to enhance relations across various sectors, including politics, agriculture, technology, education and sports, fostering mutual development for all involved.

During his meeting with Dr Güllüoğlu, Dr Nchimbi emphasized the strategic relationship between Tanzania and Türkiye, citing the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) as a successful example of the cooperation.

Dr Güllüoğlu affirmed Türkiye’s commitment to collaborating with Tanzania on development projects in technology, education and agricultural trade. 

In his conversation with El Goumir, Dr Nchimbi expressed gratitude for Morocco's contributions to education and sports, and praised support in constructing the largest mosque in East Africa located in Kinondoni, Dar es Salaam.

He noted that cooperation between Tanzania and Morocco significantly benefits both nations, particularly in promoting education, sports and security in Africa. Ambassador El Goumir confirmed Morocco's commitment to supporting academic and sports development in Tanzania.

On the other hand, Dr Nchimbi's discussions with the MCC delegation centred on politics, development projects and good governance.

 He stressed that the CCM-led government continues to take strong measures to enhance democracy and human rights in the country.

He reiterated that these aspects are part of the government’s vision to uphold civil rights and good governance, positioning Tanzania as a role model in Africa and beyond.
