Mama Samia, 61, announced the death of Tanzania's President who was believed to have succumbed to heart related issues. "Despite being vice-president since 2015, and having served as a state minister in the previous government, little is known about Ms Samia's private life." |
"She was born in January 1960 on Zanzibar - the semi-autonomous islands off the coast of mainland Tanzania. Later she went on to study public administration, first in Tanzania and then as a post-graduate at UK's Manchester University. In 1978, she married Hafidh Ameir, who is known to be an agricultural academic, but has also kept a low profile. Since Ms Samia became vice-president, the two have not been pictured together." |
