‘’Yes we have had our differences that led to this event but nobody here will not say they do not know the role the man played. Nobody can wish away the risk he took. At a point we had our differences and if today, there is need for us to do such, please anyone who genuinely believe in me should understand that it is the right thing to do.
Look at the projects we initiated. The roads. They have been abandoned. Look at other things that were initiated. By now I know where we are supposed to be. We know the progress we should have recorded. We know areas we would have developed. So there is need for this peace. That is the truth!
It is bitter but we must accept the situation and move on with it”
