“It won’t take more than 365 days to fix issues of insecurity, corruption, mismanagement among others in the country,” he boasted.
Adding that “From what I have come to realize and know, it takes a decisive, courageous, safe-minded and balanced leader to be able to fix this country once and for all. And to get this done, require the collaboration, understanding and restocking agenda-setting of the media to educate, sensitize and teach our people on the choice of the next leader,”
