ARCHBISHOP IN TANZANIA ELECTION MASSACRE MEMORIAL MASS

Our nation has lost respect due to what happened during the general election week. Not only has it lost respect, but it has lost people who have been killed indiscriminately. In the narratives, there are people who were killed while protesting, but the punishment for protesting is not death by gunfire. There are people who were killed in their homes. This is in the reflection of Archbishop Ruwa'ichi during the Mass to pray for the injured and the deceased who lost their lives during the General Election on October 29. A Mass was also held in the Archdiocese of Mbeya. By Angella Rwezaula – Vatican. In what happened in the general election in Tanzania, where the General Election led to protests and the results were the loss of human lives and others were injured, the various Catholic Churches in Tanzania continue to pray for all the deceased, the injured and their relatives who suffered from this terrible tragedy. It is in this context that, as an invitation had been issued by the Catholic Archdiocese of Dar-Ess Salaam, Tanzania, to priests, nuns, and lay faithful to pray, the Archbishop of the Archdiocese, His Eminence Jude Thaddaeus Ruwa'ichi, led the Holy Mass service, Sunday, November 9, 2025, to pray for the relatives, friends, and citizens who were killed
