He thanked the party faithful for conducting themselves peacefully and urged them to maintain the sprit of together to make their fortunes bigger in election 2024.
“Winning an internal election for the second time as a sitting DCE is not an easy task. Due to the nature of my work, people think I have a lot of resources as a DCE and do not want to release them, and this may go against me. I therefore count myself lucky for winning the election the second time, and I thank God and the supporters for the mandate.” Gariba said.
