Halima Abbas

Halima Abbas is a prominent politician in Zanzibar, known for her previous role as the shadow deputy minister for Public Service under the ACT-Wazalendo party. Recently, she made headlines by leading a group of 28 former ACT-Wazalendo members in defecting to the ruling Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) party, citing confidence in Dr. Hussein Ali Mwinyi's leadership and his alignment with the late Seif Shariff Hamad's vision for Zanzibar.
