Tundu Lissu has spoken from Belgium where he is seeking treatment after he was shot in an attempted assassination in Tanzania. Tundu Lissu is a Tanzanian politician, lawyer and and MP for Singida East and President of Tanganyika Law Society (TLS).
This is the first message he has sent to Tanzanians for a long time since he was airlifted to Nairobi Kenya to seek for emergency treatment.
“My fellow Tanzanians, today 6-01-2019 is exactly one year since I was flown to Belgium from Nairobi, Kenya to continue with treatment after an attempted assassination on me on 7-09-2017. Since we’ve started the new year 2019, I beg you to allow me to pass my new year message through this open letter. This is part I of my open letter to you.
Just like in April, 2018 when I vacated my position as president of Tanganyika Law Society, I’m forced to speak with you while I’m admitted in hospital. We started the year 2018 while I was admitted in an hospital in Nairobi. At that time, I had been operated on 17 different places on my body.
We have started the new year 2019 still being in hospital. This time I am admitted at an hospital located at the University of Leuven in Belgium…,” said Tundu Lissu in his open letter to Tanzanians.
