Mohamed Shamte was a prominent political figure in Zanzibar who served as the Prime Minister from 1961 to 1964. He is best known for his role in the negotiations that led to the agreement allowing Kadhi's courts to operate in Kenya’s coastal strip, a significant aspect of the post-colonial legal framework in the region. His collaboration with Jomo Kenyatta marked a pivotal moment in the historical relationship between Zanzibar and Kenya. Recently, his legacy has been revisited in light of the discussion surrounding the appointment of a new Chief Kadhi following the death of Athman Hussein.
