“Wawili hao walishikwa siku ya jana baada ya kupost video mtandaoni inayowaonekana watu wakicheza wimbo ‘Iokote’ wa Maua Sama huku wakiwa wanakanyaga hela,” Officer Mambosasa said.
In Tanzania, it is illegal to step or destroy currency. Same way in Kenya it is illegal to throw, burn or tear currency as it is considered to be state property.
