“A Nation is as developed as its weakest man and woman, indeed, at its
remotest part,” he said.

“The Government is fully aware of the issues that are affecting the atizenry such as unrellable public transport, unregulated informal market, health and infrastructure challenges which are already being addressed. Irrespective of all these, we must remain united and focused. Let us remain vigilant and ready to defend our country, its resources and ideals, including its values and sum-culture. We must not be a generation which betray or fail our Revolution and its ideals purchased through such painful sacrifice,”Acting President.
