Tanzania opposition Chadema supporters in the diaspora are raising funds to airlift Tundu Lissu to the United States for specialised treatment following an assassination attempt in the capital Dodoma last week.
The Singida East MP and the party's chief whip was shot several times by unknown gunmen and is receiving treatment in Nairobi Hospital in Kenya.
