Tanzania’s President John Magufuli has died at the age 61.
Magufuli died on Wednesday from heart complications at a hospital in Dar es Salaam, the country’s Vice President Samia Suluhu Hassan said in an announcement on state television.
Contrary to this, the opposition politicians claimed that he contracted Covid-19.
President Magufuli was suspected to be unwell when he was not seen in public for more than two weeks.
Magufuli was declared president on his 56th birthday in October 2015.
He’s one of the few people who d0ubts the existence of COVID-19.
In March 2020, he refused to close down churches, mosques and other place of worship saying ‘these Holy places are where God is. My fellow Tanzanians, let us not be afraid of going to praise Him’.
