President Samia Suluhu Hassan, has urged newly appointed and reassigned regional commissioners to reform themselves and serve the public effectively. Speaking on September 2, 2026, at the Tunguu State House in Zanzibar during the swearing-in ceremony of Regional Commissioners and a Regional
Administrative Secretary, President Samia reminded the leaders that they are her "army" and that she would not like to see her army tarnished or undermine the good work that has already been accomplished.
"I said that you regional commissioners are my army. Now, no one wants their army to be tarnished," said President Samia.
President Samia highlighted that the decision to transfer them to new work stations rather than dismissing them was aimed at protecting them and removing them from various issues and allegations she had been receiving from their previous locations. She emphasized that their new postings offer a fresh opportunity to reform, abandon bad habits, and refrain from interfering in duties outside their domain, so they can focus fully on serving the citizens.
"So, if you knew you had bad habits or anything of the sort where you came from, your new station is a fresh opportunity, go and reform yourself. Go reform yourself and serve the citizens as required. It is a way of saving, protecting, and shielding you from what I have been receiving. Therefore, go and reform yourself," said President Samia.
