He emphasized that the outcome reaffirmed his faith in the supremacy of the law and its protection for all citizens.

He also extended gratitude to his wife, Madam Boi Fatu Fabundeh Senesie, and their children for standing by him during the ordeal, acknowledging the pain and distress they endured. He thanked friends, relatives, and Ministry staff for their unwavering support, pledging to continue serving with humility and dedication.
Reflecting on the challenges of governance, Dr. Senesie noted that “public life is a difficult one,” requiring sacrifice, patience, and resilience. In a conciliatory gesture, he ended his statement with a message of forgiveness to his accuser, Mrs. Admire Bio Jalloh.
