Post-election unrest in Tanzania disrupted business operations, trade routes, and cross-border transport despite authorities lifting an internet blackout imposed during the vote. Protests erupted after opposition candidates were barred from running, prompting curfews and flight cancellations. The violence in Dar es Salaam and other cities slowed activity at the nation’s key port, affecting exports to Zambia and Congo. Clashes at the Kenya border halted trucking and closed businesses in the trade town of Namanga.
