Tanzania’s President Samia Suluhu Hassan has ordered fresh training for pot-bellied immigration officers to make them more agile.
The president made the remarks in Swahili on Monday during a passing-out parade for new officers.
“I was looking at the parade – those who were leading the officers look experienced, but among them I saw pot bellies,” she said.
“They should return here to remove the pot bellies to become more agile in executing their roles.”
Rais Samia Suluhu Hassan amewataka askari wa uhamiaji ambao wana vitambi warudi chuoni kuviondoa na kuwa wakakamavu.
