“My manifesto focuses on building capacity of citizens,” he said, reminding voters listening to him that they did not have any restriction to choose him.
“The press is free and I don’t condemn that. But the citizens have not learnt to express themselves, to openly critic things which are not going well,” he said.
“If anyone of you sees consequences of voting me, then you know the country is dragging.”
