Tanzanian President John Magufuli is in good health," Prime Minister Kassim Majaliwa announced on Friday.

"I have spoken to him today. He has sent his greetings to all Tanzanians," Majaliwa said in a statement issued by his office.

The statement said the Prime Minister described the President's state of health after attending Friday prayers in Njombe region where he was on an official visit.

Majaliwa commented on the president's state of health in order to allay fears following reports on social media and abroad since last week that Magufuli was ill and had been flown out of Tanzania for treatment.

Majaliwa urged the people to ignore such rumors and continue to promote harmony, peace and unity in the East African nation.

"The president is not someone to be seen roaming the streets. The president has his own work schedule," said Majaliwa.
