We are the friends of Tundu Lissu! Presidential candidate 2025 for Tanzania🇹🇿. Political prisoner for more than 365 days. #freetundulissu#noreformsnoelection
Hang in there, my brother Tundu Lissu! Leo watesi wetu wamejitia tena kidole. Wamezuia mikutano kwa kukuhofia. Naomba Mungu akulinde na akutunze. Utatoka na utakuwa Rais wa Tanzania. Taifa letu litakuwa la kupigiwa mfano. Stay stronger, Idolo! Mungu ni mwema. Free Tundu Lissu!
🚨🚨🚨 on Tanzania 🇹🇿 : The @Europarl_EN adopted a resolution, by a show of hands, on the draft Commission implementing decision on the financing of the annual action plan in favour of the United Republic of Tanzania for 2026.
MEPs note the @EU_Commission‘s decision in Nov 2025 to suspend the process for the adoption of its decision on financing for Tanzania in the wake of grave concerns expressed by MEPs, particular with regard to the conduct of Tanzania’s fraudulent elections in Oct 2025 and the violent government suppression of demonstrations that followed, which resulted in the death of over 400 people, and hundreds arrested on charges of treason.

What took them so long???? @TunduALissu’s case is finally scheduled for hearing on June 11, 2026, 09:00 am, at the Court of Appeal.
That is 108 days (!!!) after it was referred to the Court of Appeal on February 24, 2026. #freetundulissu
Last night, David Djumbe, @TunduALissu‘s personal assistant, was kidnapped and brutally beaten. Fortunately, David managed to escape. But the images speak volumes about how critical voices are treated in Tanzania 🇹🇿 . It is long overdue for the international community to hold the Tanzanian regime accountable for its injustices. Looking the other way is not an option! #freetanzania #freeTunduLisuu
Ni kweli kuwa,Mwenyekiti alifikishwa mahakamani kusomewa uamuzi mdogo kufuatia Maombi yake ya kuunganishwa kwenye kesi ya said Issa Mohamed na wenzake wawili dhidi ya Bodi ya wadhamini na Katibu Mkuu wa Chama.
Katika uamuzi wake, Mahakama kuu imekataa Maombi ya Mhe Lissu kuunganishwa kwenye kesi hiyo.
#TANZANIA: LAWYER ROBERT AMSTERDAM RAISES CONCERN OVER LISSU’S DETENTION CONDITIONS
Renowned American lawyer Robert Amsterdam, who is part of Tundu Lissu’s legal team, has raised concern over the Tanzanian opposition leader’s detention, saying he is being held in isolation in prison.
In a statement, Amsterdam said Lissu has been left alone in his cell after other inmates were removed and that surveillance cameras have been installed to monitor him at all times, including during private moments.
He described the treatment as humiliating and against the law and human dignity.
Lissu, the leader of Tanzania’s main opposition party CHADEMA, was arrested in April 2025 and later charged with treason after calling for electoral reforms ahead of the 2025 general election.
Amsterdam also said the legal team sought intervention from the UN Working Group on Arbitrary Detention, which called for Lissu’s immediate release.
Last week marked one year since @TunduALissu was arbitrarily detained for calling for democratic reform in Tanzania. We will continue to seek international pressure until he is released. The Hassan regime should be in no doubt: this will not be forgotten.
"@TunduALissu's remains imprisoned for his advocacy for electoral reforms and civic freedoms in Tanzania. I call on Tanzanian authorities to drop their charges against Tundu and release him from detention immediately." -@SenatorShaheen
