East Africans and women's rights groups have condemned Tanzanian President John Magufuli's comments that schoolgirls who give birth should not be allowed back to school.
An online petition has been set up to get the president to retract his statements, with pan-African women's rights group Femnet threatening to "blacklist" him as a “women's -violation enabler”.
