A state funeral is being held in Tanzania’s capital, Dodoma, for former President John Pombe Magufuli.
Several African heads of state have arrived for the event including the presidents of Kenya, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Comoros, Mozambique, Zambia and Democratic Republic of Congo.
Mr Magufuli died last Wednesday from what authorities said were heart related complications.
Today 22 March 2021 is a public holiday in Tanzania, as the country enters a third day of bidding farewell to the late Magufuli.
