THE Minister of State, Mr Mohamed Aboud Mohamed, has said that all people including the opposition are warmly welcome at the swearing-in ceremony of the elected President, Dr Ali Mohamed Shein.
“We hope leaders from Zanzibar and Tanzania Mainland including those who have retired will be present at the ceremony to be held at Amani National Stadium,” said Mr Aboud adding that the function may last until mid-day.
He said that all the arrangements for the ‘big event’ were almost over including preparations by the security and defence forces that have been having parade rehearsals.
President-elect Dr Shein from Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) won the Sunday election after scooping 91.4 per cent of the more than 300,000 votes, beating his other 13 rivals including his would-be main challenger who opted to boycott.
CCM also won all the 54 constituency seats, as its members and fans celebrate the victory. President Dr John Magufuli was among the first people to congratulate Dr Shein and CCM members in Zanzibar.
