A tourist guide that was arrested in the African country of Tanzania presided upon by John Magufuli, has apologised for wrongly translating a tourist's comments.

Ceoafrica gathered that the two have released a new video in which they say they were just joking and having fun in the original video.

In that video, the guide says in Swahili that the tourist wants Tanzanians to stop "complaining" about hunger when she, in fact, said Tanzanians are "fabulously wonderful".

Police arrested the guide for casting the tourism ministry in a "bad light".
