Career
Abdallah is a member of the ruling Chama Cha Mapinduzi party. Her service in government began when she was voted one of the first female district commissioners in 1973. She became a member of parliament in 1975, when there were only five other female members of parliament. She served as Tanzania's Minister of Health from 2000 to 2005 as a qualified nurse. Minister for Public Works (1995-2000), Minister for Agriculture and Livestock Development (1991), Minister for Human Resource, Cooperative Extension, and Marketing are among her other positions held by the government. Abdallah was the first female chairperson of the Committee on Defense and Security. Abdallah was also given direct responsibility for the construction of Dodoma's new capital in 1983. She served as the Union of Tanzanian Women's National Chairperson from 1994 to 2008. Abdallah served as the principal of Buhare College from 1969 to 1973.
Abdallah was instrumental in the establishment of Mazimbu, which would later house a school named Solomon Mahlangu Freedom College. Abdallah planted a "friendship" tree at the Mazimbu's house and came to the site on occasion. She made it a priority to have Mazimbu recognized globally, putting it on the world map wherever she went. Abdallah was the UN's unofficial ambassador for the ANC, a national liberation movement, because she campaigned for the cause and shared word of its existence. During Abdallah's tenure in the Ministry of Home Affairs, she approved the use of additional land in Dakawa (unoccupied land in Tanzania) for the purpose of providing more space for the ANC people who had no educational link to the institution, which was not present in Mazimbu.
At the Initiatives of Change conference center in Caux, Switzerland, she initiated the creation of the Creators of Peace (CoP) global peacemakers network in 1991, urging the participants and everyone to "create peace wherever we are, in our hearts, our homes, our workplace, and our communities. We all pretend that someone else is the source of the stumbling block; could that someone be yourself? CoP has been present in many countries, particularly in Africa (South Africa, Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Uganda, Sudan, Sudan, Cameroon, and Tanzania).
In 1995, she was given the Order of the Republic of Tanzania.
