What’s John Magufuli up to?

It’s been more than two weeks since Tanzanians last saw their president.

Opposition politicians have suggested that he’s in a serious condition, after supposedly contracting Covid-19.

But several members of his government have said the president’s in good health. They’ve described allegations of his supposed illness as β€œrumours”.

And yet, there’s still no actual sign of the president: no photos, interviews, or public appearances.

So, what do we actually know about the president’s whereabouts?
