Dar es Salaam. The Director General of Zanzibar Broadcasting Corporation (ZBC), Ramadhani Bukini, announced on November 10, 2023, that a 60-day campaign organized by ZBC and Mwananchi Communications Limited (MCL) will involve people who participated in the revolution, government leaders, and public and private organizations.

The campaign, which will be held on social media, in print, and on electronic media, will highlight different aspects of the Zanzibar Revolution and its impact on the country as a whole.

"We are going to have something different on social media, print, and electronic media," Bukini explained at a joint press conference in Zanzibar. "The 60-year revolution has many issues, and that is why we will be discussing different things that happened within 60 days."

Bukini stressed that the Zanzibar Revolution is a national event, and welcomed others who would like to participate, whether private or public, to come forward and work together.

The 60-day campaign is a significant initiative to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Zanzibar Revolution. It is an opportunity to learn about the revolution, its impact on the country, and the people who made it happen. It is also an opportunity to reflect on the progress that has been made since the revolution and to look ahead to the future.
