CHADEMA national Chairman Tundu Lissu, has declared that the party and its supporters are prepared to endure hardships in their fight for electoral reforms in the country.

Speaking to residents of Manyoni in Singida during a party tour, Lissu emphasized that CHADEMA will not participate in any elections unless reforms are implemented first.

"We know that if we enter an election without changes to the electoral system, we will suffer and gain nothing," Lissu stated.

Bazecha Ikungi has presented the CHADEMA National Chairman, Tundu Lissu, with a shield and spear as a symbol of his coronation as a hero of the Nyaturu tribe. He has been entrusted with the mission to fight for a new constitution, an independent electoral commission, and against the plundering of the nation's resources.

"Remember our struggle last year during the swearing-in of polling agents? We faced all kinds of injustices just to ensure verification," he said.
