Jakaya Kikwete served as the fourth President of Tanzania from 2005 to 2015. He is a member of the Chama Cha Mapinduzi (CCM) and played a significant role in initiating the constitutional reform process in Tanzania. His leadership focused on economic development and healthcare, but his administration faced criticism for issues related to governance and corruption.
