    "We expected the internet shutdown, as this was not the first time. It is not unusual for states that use authoritarian practices to cut off communications around election periods—this also happens in Uganda. What was unimaginable, however, was the scale of the protests. This happened because tensions had been building up and were finally released."- Roland Ebole, Tanzania/Uganda Regional Researcher at Amnesty International #MorningCafeTV47 Thank you for watching this video.
