Tanzania’s first female president, President Samia Suluhu has indicated that despite her position as the most powerful person in Tanzania she will remain submissive to her husband, Hafidh Ameir.
She made this known in a video that is currently circulating on social media and in the video, she was heard saying kneeling before her husband to show submission and honour would not make her inferior to him but was rather a sign of love and affection.
She said; “Some of you will say we are equal in all aspects of society, No! That’s not the right position. Even as vice president, I will kneel before my husband. I don’t kneel because I am inferior, it’s because of love and affection.
Don’t leave this tradition so we can strengthen the bond of our families and bring up our children through good manners.”
