Guess what Tanzanians did on their Independence Day today?

Instead of celebrating, they swept the whole country. Today
if the country's 54th Independence day and the new
president Dr John Pombe Magufuli told his people to use the
day to clean up the environment and Tanzanians responded
in their thousands.

And the new president even joined hundreds of residents in
the main city Dar es Salaam to take part in the public clean-
up operation. He did his clean up duties at the famous Ferry
fish market near the State House; the country's Vice
President Samia Suluhu Hassan tackled the famous Oyster-
bay beach, and the Prime Minister Majaliwa tackled
Kariakoo!
