President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has rushed to Tanzania to witness and grace the swearing in of newly re-elected Tanzania President John Pombe Magufuli.

Mr Magufuli won a second term last week, with a landslide victory of 84% of the vote, a result that has however been challenged by the opposition who are planning protests.

It is the second time in two months that the Ugandan President has travelled to Tanzania, the last being to sign an implementation agreement for the East Africa Crude Oil Pipeline (EACOP) project .

It was then the first meeting between two East African leaders since the COVID-19 pandemic started. President Museveni, like toady wore a mask, while Magufuli was mask-less.

The ceremony was also graced by Zimbabwe President Emmerson Mnangagwa(i.ug)
