A Tanzanian constitutional review lobby is seeking minimum reforms to the Constitution before civic elections in 2019 and the 2020 general election, and wants the John Magufuli government to facilitate the amendments.

But President Magufuli last year said that a new Constitution was not on his priority list, sparking criticism among his detractors.
