Election Monitoring: Tanzanians Celebrate Fmr.

President Goodluck Jonathan

As Tanzanians prepare to vote in either side,

they are happy that high profile observers

including Jonathan, who they consider as ‘a hero

of free and fair election in Africa’, would be on

ground to monitor the elections. They are hoping

that their presence would ensure a transparent

and peaceful election process. Paying tribute to

Jonathan in a recent editorial ahead of the

elections, The Daily News of Tanzania

commended the former president for taking his

defeat in the last presidential election “in all

magnanimity,” adding that “Jonathan may very

well have averted bloodshed that is

characteristic of incumbent leaders who cling in

power tooth and nail, fang and claw!
