Abstract:

One year after his inauguration on 5 November 2015, President John Magufuli has shown an enthusiasm for swift action against corrupt individuals and has taken publicity-generating populist action. He has also shown worrisome autocratic tendencies against advice and criticism, earning for him the perception of a wolf in sheep's clothing.
