Tundu Antiphas Mughwai Lissu (born 20 January 1968 in Ikungi district, Singida) is a Tanzanian lawyer, CHADEMA politician and Member of Parliament for Singida East constituency since 2010. He is also the former President of Tanganyika Law Society (TLS), the bar association of Tanzania mainland, and Chief Legal Officer for Tanzanian opposition party CHADEMA.
Over the years Lissu has built a reputation as a prominent lawyer, fierce opposition figure and outspoken government critic, especially with his repeated confrontations with the government in President Magufuli's tenure in the country. Lissu was responsible for the research and preparation of the document that revealed the involvement of the state's high ranking officials in plundering of public funds, famously known as the LIST OF SHAME. The fierce lawmaker has been arrested at least six times in 2017 alone, accused of insulting the president and disturbing public order, among other charges. On 23 August 2017 his home was searched by the police after he was arrested and questioned over allegations of sedition and insulting President John Magufuli, calling him a 'petty dictator'. His arrest came after he revealed to the public that a plane bought for the national carrier had been impounded in Canada over unpaid government debtsIn the afternoon of September 7 2017 during a parliamentary session break, Tundu Lissu, whilst in his car, was shot multiple times and seriously injured by unknown assailant (the so called unknown people who engaged in many kidnaping and assassinate opposers) in the parking lot of his parliamentary residence in Area D, Dodoma. This happened merely weeks after Lissu declared publicly that certain people instructed by IGP Sirro and the Head of National Intelligence unit Mr Kipilimba, had been stalking him for weeks. Tundu Lissu received emergency treatment for some hours at Dodoma General Hospital before, in fear of his safety, was air-lifted to Aga Khan Hospital in Nairobi, Kenya where he was hospitalized for months before being flown to Belgium to undergo further treatment and rehabilitation . He was hospitalized at the Leuven University Hospital in Gasthuisberg, where he has reportedly undergone nineteen (19) operations to date. Until today, it is still uncertain when Lissu will return home; his brother and family spokesman, advocate Alute Mughwai added that the family would prefer his young brother to stay in Belgium for treatment until he fully recovers.
With his preceding political stance, the recurring arrests plus the recent attack on Lissu have been condemned as 'cowardly', 'heinous' and 'an attack on democracy' by political, human rights and religious organizations. Lissu's party officials openly addressed their concerns to the public and to President Magufuli, who is also Chairman of the nation's ruling party CCM, that the attempt on Lissu's life was politically motivated and just another retaliation on the lawmaker's repeated run-ins with the government. While President Magufuli said on Twitter that he was 'shocked' and 'saddened' by the shooting and was praying for Lissu's 'quick recovery', a number of Tanzanian politicians have aired their comments on the attack, with CHADEMA Chairman Freeman Mbowe and opposition figure Zitto Kabwe hinting on the necessity of having a foreign body man the investigation on the brutal attack.

    CHADEMA aliyoianzisha mzee Mtei ilikuwa kwa ajili ya kulinda maslahi ya CCM sio kama hii ya sasa chini ya Lissu na Heche.

    Mpaka anaondoka Mbowe ilikuwa ni sehemu ya CCM kudanganya jumuia ya kimataif kuwa kuna upinzani nchini. Ilikuwa ipo kibiashara zaidi ili kunufaisha matumbo ya mabwanyeye waliojipachika jina kuwa wapinzani wakati sio wapinzani. Sasa hovi chini ya Lissu na Heche ndio kimekuwa chama cha upinzani...

    Hivi nikweli CHADEMA itakufa sababu ya misimano thabiti ya Lissu na Heche?

    Kuna minog'ono inatolewa na WanaCCM wanaoionea wizvu CHADEMA ya Lissu na Heche kuwa inakwenda kufa kisa tu wana misimamo thabiti. Kwa sababu hawataki kuwa kama Mbowe na kuwa wananunulika na CCM kuwasaliti Watanganyika.

    Lissu akiachiliwa tu alisema hatopoa ni mchaka mchaka maandamano kila siku tena yeye atayaongoza mwenyewe Genz mjiandae. Lazima tu ataachiliwa hata kama sio leo na akiachiliwa siku hiyo hiyo atakinukisha atakusanya watanzania barabarani yeye ndie rais wa wananchi.

    Nimeangalia sasa hivi anahutubia huko Dodoma kuwa Watanzania wana imani na mahakama. Huu ni uongo. Maana mahakama yenyewe imejaa rushwa na maonevu. watu wengi wapo mahakamani hawana makosa. Lissu hana makosa lakini hakuna Jaji aliyethubutu kumuachia pamoja na kuwa mpaka sasa jamhuri haina...
