Tundu Lissu is making the most of his incident. He is going to the international community. But what is Tundu Looking for? Is he looking for sympathy? Is he looking of support or asylum?
To me personally, I am of the opinion that Lisu's ordeal might bring bad luck upon him. He may become a puppet which I believe was not his goal. The west is looking at Tanzania.They know something is wrong somewhere and they are looking for a horse to back.
They will not back Lissu because they care about him, or about us.They are actually in the hunt for a puppet and the attention they are giving him now is to feed his ego while understanding his personality. At the end of it all they will decide if Lissu is worth a bet.
They need to know if Lissu is a hardliner or a blabber or megalomaniac.In any case they only need him for their own purpose.
Magufuli has proven to be a trouble maker, ineffective and unpredictable.These qualities are not desirable in the west.The question is will Lissu be better off then Magufuli in the eyes of the westerners?
If you go back to the previous interview with BBC you will notice that Tundu Lissu made a mistake which will cause the west to rally around him not because they love him but because he has shown that he can be controlled.
The questions which he was asked as simple as they were did not reveal him as a true leader, a patriot or a hero instead he appeared to be seeking attention, sympathy and yet he was not strategic.
He did not stick to the facts instead he showed them his weak spots
My suggestions
TUNDU stop this TOUR of YOURS unless you are ready to take the bull by the horn and you have an Agenda that is clear and to the point. If you do not, you will be taken for a joy ride and after the ride, the west might decide to support you to become a president while you are personally not ready, physically or mentally.
All in all, the interview was good and it put most key issues in perspective to some extent.
I remain to be corrected
