Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: B

Explanation

Samia Suluhu Hassan became the first female President of Tanzania on March 19, 2021, following the death of President John Magufuli. She was serving as the Vice-President at the time of his passing. She is currently the only female head of state in Africa (executive) and the first woman to lead Tanzania.

  • Sahle-Work Zewde is the first female President of Ethiopia, a largely ceremonial role she assumed in 2018.
  • Ellen Johnson Sirleaf was the President of Liberia (2006–2018) and the first elected female head of state in Africa.

Although the question specifies "April 2022", Samia Suluhu Hassan is the correct answer as she is the first woman to hold this office. This question appeared in the UPPSC 2022 Prelims exam, where she was a prominent figure in international news during that period.
