There are two opposing views on corruption in Tanzania. Some observers, including former anti-corruption Commissioner Joseph Warioba and global watchdog Transparency International (TI), see endemic official corruption in the country as an abuse of human rights and a major factor undermining the country's development prospects. Others, including many senior government officials, take the view that corruption is not a fundamental problem and that Tanzania's poor image – last year, Transparency International ranked it among the four most corrupt in a poll of 85 countries – reflects the more "widespread and open discussion" of corruption in Tanzania.
