Faith leaders denounce slapping of ex-president of Tanzania

Christian and Muslim leaders in Tanzania have condemned an attack on retired president Ali Hassan Mwinyi after he called for peaceful Christian-Muslim co-existence, and also for more use of condoms to prevent the spread of HIV and AIDS, reports Ecumenical News International.

"It is a shameful, terrible thing. I condemn the attack," Anglican Archbishop Valentino Mokiwa of Dar es Salaam told Ecumenical News International.

"When politicians are talking about Christian Muslims relations, I see that as good." On 13 March a Tanzanian court jailed 26-year-old Ibrahim Said, to one-year in jail for slapping Mwinyi on 10 March during his speech promoting condom use during celebrations to mark the Prophet Muhammad's birthday.
