In Dar Es Salaam, a significant police presence can be observed at the Glory of Christ Church – Ufufuo na Uzima – located in Kawe and led by Pastor and MP Josephat Gwajima. This comes after the government decided to revoke the church's official recognition. The entire complex within the Ubungo district has been sealed off using yellow crime scene tapes adorned with warnings written in black lettering, while over twenty heavily-armed policemen enforce stringent safety measures surrounding the area. Tactical-clad law enforcement personnel have taken up key positions nearby, ensuring compliance with the shutdown order and restricting entry into the grounds. Additionally, it was reported earlier that the Tanzanian authorities withdrew their endorsement from Gwajima’s congregation due to politically charged messages conveyed during his sermons. These events transpired subsequent to an administrative announcement made on June 2nd, 2025, wherein officials declared the church out-of-bounds based on findings suggesting breaches against national regulations concerning religious bodies' registrations and practices.
