"Magufuli did not die this evening (Wednesday). I had information from the same sources that told me he was gravely ill. I have information Magufuli has been dead,” Lissu said. Former Prime Minister Raila Odinga appeared to allude to the squabbles as he mourned the death of his friend. He asked the Tanzanian authorities to observe the constitution to the letter. “I appeal to the nation to fall back on the tradition set by Mwalimu Nyerere and followed meticulously by predecessors of a peaceful, orderly and constitutional transfer of power,” Raila said. The ODM boss said that the tradition of peaceful and orderly transfer of power, brotherhood and constitutionalism needed to hold in Tanzania “now more than ever” in the interest of the peaceful and friendly people of Tanzania, the EAC and Africa. Tanzania opposition leader Zitto Kabwe called for the immediate swearing in of Suluhu to avoid a constitutional vacuum. “The VP has to be sworn in immediately,” Kabwe told Reuters by phone from Dar es Salaam on Thursday morning. “The constitution doesn’t allow a vacuum, once it was official that the president has died, the next step was for the vice president to be sworn in”. Magufuli was one of Africa’s most prominent coronavirus sceptics. In her announcement, Suluhu said the President succumbed to a heart-related complication that had plagued him for over a decade. She made no mention of Covid-19, a scourge that has hit Tanzania hard and claimed top government officials. There have been speculations for weeks that Magufuli had himself contracted the virus. This coupled with his heart conditions made his survival chances very slim. “ Magufuli died of corona,"
