He said: “Don’t get involved in any fight between two politicians without knowing the real cause of the quarrel.
“In any facet of life, there are rules and they must be obeyed. As a pastor, there are rules you must follow, so also as politicians, we must follow rules. While I was governor I followed those rules, and that’s why I was able to succeed.”
“When we wanted to go for it we were not shouting asawana, now they’re carrying flags and shouting asawana up and down.
“Are you people aware that Mr. President actually called us privately and told us what to do, he didn’t do it and now Mr President then said okay, the larger house should come and they’re saying he does not have the constitutional right to do that.”
