“Kono has got a primary school for more than 112 years now with no university that and many more have been corrected by President Bio in changing the narrative for people. The people will vote for the 24 hours light they are enjoying now, the road construction, the maternal centre of excellence that is in progress, the more than 600 colvet and bridges rehabilitated in Kono, the free quality education, these and many more have got a total assurance for the people of Kono to give President Bio a second term with no run-off” he stated.

“I saw President Bio manifesting and exemplifying the ‘Nations First’ plan of the C4C which was missing in the party as the party (C4C) missed that track. I saw all what we were advocating for in this fifth parliament of President Bio, his willingness to do more for the people of Kono pushed me to give him my full support and we may be part of it to ensure that, this is achieve at its topmost”. He maintained.
