Hand Grenade Caused Rally Explosion: Mnangagwa

President Emmerson Mnangagwa revealed a hand grenade was to blame for the White City Stadium rally blast that killed two people last week.

Mnangagwa said this at a Press conference at State House in Tanzania after holding talks with host President Dr John Magufuli. Said Mnangagwa:

You might be aware about the events that took place Saturday when a hand grenade was thrown at me. But since you see me here, it means I am now fine. That was a minor incident, we are going to proceed with elections. We have opened up democratic space and we now have 133 political parties, but (for) President, we are better (than) Tanzania, we are 23 (candidates); here (in Tanzania), you had 42 candidates.
