He challenged some people who compare President Samia and the late President John Magufuli\u2019s administration to stop doing so since their views do not hold water in building the nation.<\/p>\n<p>He said whoever compares leaders knows nothing about God\u2019s creation and his intentions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGod created people in different ways, you cannot expect someone to act and perform like another person, but all of them are doing a good job through different approaches,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n<p>He said Tanzanians have the responsibility and the civic duty to support the government by 100 per cent. Sheikh Hillali Shaweji said Tanzania is blessed to have a strong woman leader.<\/p>\n<p>He said President Samia has so far demonstrated good leadership, which shows clearly the true strength of a woman in leadership. He said: \u201cI once told the late President Magufuli that he was a good leader, today I say the same thing to President Samia that I like her leadership style.\u201d Dr Magnus Mhiche from Tanzania Assemblies of God (TAG) said changes always strengthen the society.<\/p>\n<p>He said the changes that happened after the death of Dr Magufuli should be received since everything happens for a reason. He said the important thing is to pray for the nation and provide support to President Samia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
