One year ago, Samia Suluhu Hassan became president of Tanzania, after the death of her predecessor, John Magufuli. She’s the first woman to ever hold the position.

She says she’s changing how people think about women in power – by using her brain.

And while at first she emphasized how she was continuing many of the large-scale projects started by Magufuli, wiithin weeks she had also changed direction on some of the biggest issues facing the country, such as the Covid pandemic.

To mark the anniversary, the ´óÏó´«Ã½â€™s Salim Kikeke interviewed the president, who told him about her latest adventure appearing in a film promoting Tanzania, and about how she likes it when people tweet at her, as it tells her what people think.
